Nicola Grant

We had lunch here for the first time today, having visited Babbacombe a few times in the past. We were impressed with the food and the service. The bar and serving staff were really friendly. They are dog friendly, which is a bonus. The dogs were given treats and were welcomed. The spicy chicken and chips was really good. We will definitely come back and try the seafood next time.

Popped in here for tea whilst staying nearby on holiday. Food was good but not great. Standard pub grub, no frills! Standard service, no frills! It was reasonably priced though.

Very friendly staff and great service. The ice bucket for the mini prosecco was a nice touch. We've never had that before. Food was good. We'll certainly be back when we're in the area.

Booked a table before going to the theatre. Good menu, excellent service from the staff. A great St Austell Brewery pub. Would recommend.
