The Five Bells Inn

The Five Bells Inn is a beautiful thatched farmhouse inn; home of Devon's best Sunday roast. We provide award-winning locally sourced & freshly cooked food coupled with local beers, ales and ciders and an extensive range of beautiful wines & soft drinks.

Reviewed By havana92016

The Five Bells manages to have a cozy country pub atmosphere while still feeling spacious and comfortable. Tucked away on the edge of the village in the beautiful Devon countryside, it was perfect for a crisp autumn day. The Sunday lunch menu offered much more choice than we were expecting, it was well-priced, and the food was delicious - roast beef was served rare, and with a wonderful selection of fresh veggies.The staff were all friendly, efficient and helpful. We weren’t rushed, but they were attentive whenever we needed anything. Would love to try it for dinner. The food is well-cooked and interesting without being too fussy. We’ll definitely go back for another visit.

We go to the Half Moon now & again, and the food is always great. They do small portions at half the price of a large meal. Not everyone can eat large meals. The prices are affordable & very good value.Thank you so much for your great feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your latest visit and we look forward to welcoming you back soon.

The Jack In The Green Inn

Reviewed By gosling106

Ate here last Friday with friends and really disappointed had crab cake to star meant to have Thai bisque with it but that had disappeared then had the Halibut special with dauphinois potatoes very small portion and no vegetables in sight. One guest had the lamb curry very little sauce and very salty. She made a comment to the waitress but no apology or concern shown or comment. Also the waiter spilt the wine when pouring but never cleaned the spilt wine up. Unfortunately we all agreed the food or service was not up to standard on previous visits so very disappointed with our visit. Perhaps it has changed hands or Chefs?? either way we will think twice before returning

The Lamb at Longdown

A Semi-Rural Pub Located In The Heart Of Picturesque Longdown. Serving Fresh Food, Local Beers And Fine Wines

Reviewed By EmmaBowler

I've already reviewed the Lamb at Longdown but having been there yesterday for Sunday roast I think it warrants a second review because it was a simply great Sunday lunch.Because I don't eat red meat I had the vegetarian option of roasted celeriac, with goats curd and pesto. To be honest I would often avoid the vegetarian 'roast' option if chicken or turkey are on offer but I am so glad they weren't because the vegetarian option that I had was simply gorgeous.The celeriac was cooked to perfection, the goats curd was soft, tasty and creamy, and the pesto was so tasty, all of this was served on a bed of small [wild?] mushrooms and topped with, I think, crispy onion. So often vegetarian food is an afterthought but not here. It was served with a platter of help yourself perfectly cooked veg - cabbage, carrots, green beans etc, cauliflower cheese and fabulous roast potatoes - definitely a 5 a day job. My son woofed down his roast beef, all the veg, and announced several times that the roasties were the best. Between us we polished off everything which meant no room for pudding so I can't comment on them this time [but they were yummy on all previous visits].It's brilliant that they are keeping the standards so high at this place.We'll be back on a Sunday again [and again]...

The Beer Engine

Cosy gastropub and brewery with a covered balcony, tiered garden and a menu of locally sourced British dishes.

Reviewed By kateandchris2

Can’t really complain about anything as there is nothing wrong with the roasts served here (and good gluten free options available too!) but can’t help thinking they’re a bit ‘school dinner’ style. Huge portions, slightly over cooked meat, thick gloopy gravy, kind of anaemic potatoes, cheap vegetables like peas and carrots rather than any dark greens or any interesting veg like roasted beetroot etc. Would come back if we were starving hungry but wouldn’t come back for a ‘quality’ roast.

Reviewed By Peter S

A nice country pub with friendly and attentive service. Had the Fly and Dive and the Duck for mains; cannot rate it highly enough. Delighted with both dishes, nicely presented, strong well-balanced flavours. Good wine list - had the Malbec which was as described and for under £20 excellent. It isn't huge and so you need to book and no car park but we found plenty of street parking close by. Will be going back next time we are in Devon and so should you!Thanks for the kind review - it means a lot to us hereKind regardsAdam
