The Old Inn - West Devon

My daughter and son-in-law treated us to a dinner at this restaurant as a Christmas present. I can truthfully say it was one of the best, if not the best meal I have ever had. The other three members of our party shared the same opinion. The atmosphere was very relaxed and we definitely plan on going back. We all opted for the tasting menu and would highly recommend it.

We stayed with friends for two nights and can't speak highly enough of this restaurant. The food, from the welcome tea and cake to the fantastic dinner, was all delicious. We tried everything on the menu and it was all excellent. The rooms were comfortable and the owners were welcoming to our dog. The walks right from the door were beautiful, so there was no need to drive once we arrived.

During our journey from Wales to Penzance, we made a stop halfway due to concerns about potential traffic delays caused by a rail strike. We are grateful that we decided to stay there, as Anthea and the chef Duncan were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Duncan, who used to work as a chef at Gidleigh Park, prepared a wonderful meal that showcased his talent. The rural setting added to the peaceful and enjoyable experience of our stopover. We highly recommend this place.

Staying locally we were delighted to get a table at the Old Inn for dinner. Lovely to linger in front of the fire before dinner. Food was fantastic and exceeded expectations. Very happy with covid precautions. Would have liked to know more about the dishes and engagement with our hosts. Was a special evening, thank you.

This guy must be the best chef in Devon. And probably much further afield. The taster menu was too good to resist and absolutely lived up to our expectations. Each course was superb, beautifully balanced and the passion fruit soufflé was sublime. We were very well looked after, the timings were spot on no rush, no hassle and no long waits between courses. In a very relaxing, understated restaurant we had food that deserves a Michelin star. Book a table if you possibly can.
