Only visited this pub for a quick drink the two servers seem quite stressed... Even though the place was empty ... We had to sit on a reserved table, we where greeted by a lady that wasn't familiar with the English language, it would seem that she was not happy to talk to us... We where told that "this is a restaurant" I'm sure she thought it was...?.. It looked terribly like a themed pub to me, there was an old couple sat behind us... It looked like they where being bullied into buying an extra meal or something... They didn't seem happy at all ...needless to say I didn't stay...!

Weâve been visiting Croyde for many years and for the last few years, weâve had evening meals at the Williams Arms in Braunton both in the carvery and in the bar and have always enjoyed the food. However, we didnât know that they are open for breakfast in the mornings and at a very reasonable price of £5.95 for a full English including toast. A hearty breakfast and good friendly service. Itâs a bigger and better breakfast than the Thatch in Croyde and at £3 cheaper, well worth the short 10 minute journey, saving £18 as there were six of us. Next time down in Croyde, we know where to go for breakfast.

Disappointing. Instow is blessed with lots of choice and food of a high standard. This pub falls short of the mark for me - no menus and limited choice available so for an evening out this was not great for us. Dog friendly - positioned close to the beach , tucked around the corner - to the left of the Boathouse.

Luckily we were sightseeing through northern Devon while a Sunday Roast Beef Carvery was being served at the Thatched Inn. This is a beautiful pub, and busy, with many families enjoying the Carvery. The roast beef was mouth-watering good, there was a nice variety of tasty vegetables, and the Yorkshire Puddings were huge. I'm afraid we ate so much we didnât have room for dessert. If you are near Abbotsham on Sunday, check out the Thatched Inn, you won't be disappointed.

Lovely food and atmosphere with amazing service We had a lovely lunch here but what a nightmare of a place to get to. If I said the roads were single lane would be an exaggeration but well worth the adventure, do try to avoid using the road and meeting a bus or pedestrians.We had four different meals and they were all good.Wine was slightly pricey but overall a very enjoyable experience and its dog friendlyThank you so much for your wonderful 5* review, we are so delighted you all enjoyed your lunch here at The Pig. The Devon roads can be an experience if you're not used to them! But as you say we are well worth the adventure So pleased you persevered and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Best wishes Susan

Very impressed with the friendly greeting, great atmosphere and excellent food. We all thought it was great and will certainly go back again soon. However we did have to wait a fair time for our food but it is obviously cooked fresh so is that a bad thing?

Quayside Inn with bar, restaurant and 17 letting rooms. Lovely views across the Torridge estuary towards Instow, outside seating and small car park, situated in Appledore, a lovely quaint fishing village in the heart of North Devon.

We stopped at their Quay location in a first floor suite. The room was first class and comfortable. The breakfasts were very good with lots of choice each day. Most of the staff were really helpful. Compared with last year we thought the dinner menu was not quite as good with a lack of specials especially fish. Room prices have now increased but we still thought it was good value and well located in Book Festival week.Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review Dave, I'm delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay in one of our fantastic Quay suites. Although our menu is slightly smaller we still aim to offer food of a high standard, using quality locally sourced ingredients and suppliers.Please visit our website to view our 'winter breaks' deal available from Oct 28th-March 31st.We hope to see you again,Kind regardsChelsea

Having not been before we wanted to try their Sunday roast. We sat upstairs in the window seat on a sunny afternoon which was picture perfect. The Lamb and Vegetarian roast was superb and one of the best weâve ever eaten. The staff were helpful and efficient and we enjoyed the whole experience - highly recommended.

We go to the beaver on a regular basis as we are lucky to have a house in the village. Have not written a review for a few years now so time for an update. Itâs a great local with friendly staff with always a good atmosphere. The food has been fantastic on our last few visits and it is always consistently good. The skate wing and blackened salmon with noodles we had last night was top notch.

I am lucky enough to live in Appledore and visit the Royal George weekly. Everyday their menu changes, (they only serve free range or organic locally sourced meat. I canât think of another place nearby that does that). The staff are always friendly, the decor is Nice and the view is breathtaking. The latest menu is the best yet. I am so pleased that I only have to walk five minutes to enjoy their food. On this occasion I invited my parents and my friends for a birthday lunch. We had to preorder which was easy to do. We arrived a bit early and the staff allowed us to bring a cake, balloons and table decorations. We enjoyed some drinks until the food arrived. All of it was perfect, my friends and family were very happy and I had a very relaxed birthday party. I could not recommend this venue enough. Thanks very much to the staff at the Royal George!
