Mildmay Colours Inn - South Hams

As a local it is wonderful that our pub has reopened. There is a warm friendly welcome and the eclectic decoration fun. Yan is a great chef providing wonderful food. Sharon makes a mean vegan lemon cheese cake. Although the menu is small it is all freshly cooked and delicious. I have been there as a couple, a few friends and as part of a large group. Every time the service and food has been excellent. Caters for vegetarians too.

What a disappointment! If you read the other reviews you would not think we went to the same place. We had booked in advance for Sunday lunch. Not everything was available and they only have 4 things on the menu it arrived barely warmed through on plastic plates. Nothing appeared to have been cooked from fresh. They took it away and reheated it. If you can’t cook don’t offer food! They offered a free desert in recompense but frankly if the mains were a yardstick of their cooking ability they wouldn’t be worth the wait we all declined. No offer of a free drink or discount was made poor show. Never again.

Eaten here lots now, brunch, dinner, lunch and lovely generous buffet on Christmas Eve...everything I've sampled has been so delicious and tasty. The atmosphere is very welcoming, relaxed and homely. This is very early days for the new management and they have not disappointed. I might be biased but complaining about not getting a free drink when you've eaten everything on your plate sounds a bit suspicious to me

Had lunch here today. Both had Lamb and dauphinois potatoes with lovely fresh green beans. Tasted amazing and well presented. Made space for a homemade crumble and chocolate brownie followed by a tasty coffee. We would recommend eating and spending time here. Were made to feel very welcome and able to relax. Pet friendly. Will be back.

Thanks for a great lunch today, and for catering for my grandchildren with purpose built sandwiches just for them, thanks for going to the trouble. The place was cosy and friendly after our walk and the soup and coffee were brilliant...Thank you, we will be back...
