We came here due to the raving reviews. My fish pie was simply average. None- not a single one- of the desserts were homemade. I opted for the icecream with honeycomb. It was inferior icecream and was seriously not worth it. The service was ok. Nothing here to rave about. Just pub food.

We popped down for a few days break and booked here for three nights on the trot. We just love this place. Friendly service, comfortable surroundings, excellent wine list and amazing, innovative food, beautifully presented and very good value.All the food we had on the three days was stunning, the lamb and summer vegetables in red wine sauce with crispy pieces of rosemary batter was gorgeous, and the slow cooked pork belly with the spicy sausage, red wine sauce was stunning and so clever with the strips of raw sweet apple to add a crisp texture.I loved the gravad lax with the dill sauce and those amazing rye crisps, and tiny lightly pickled veg; a real tongue tingler. The smoked duck breast with beetroot and barberries and beetroot sauce with walnuts and orange was equally delicious. I am already looking forward to our next trip to Devon, and eating here again.

My wife and I rang about an hour before and booked a table for an evening meal.When we arrived we were made to feel welcome on a reserved table.Staff were extremely friendly and attentive.The food was excellent and more than adequate. I couldnât manage all my main course after having a starter.It was a lovely evening and we had coffee outside. I would recommend The Thirsty Farmer.

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

Booked so nearby relatives could join us for dinner. Beds very comfortable and bathroom was I think recently refurbished, great shower, sink a little small and would benefit from a towel ring at the side for hand towel. Toiletries provided along with cleansing pads etc which was a nice extra. Tea & coffee making facilities. Dinner which was good and reasonably priced with a good selection and a specials board. Breakfast was excellent with delicious sausages and thick cut bacon, couldn't fault it. Plenty of healthy alternatives to the traditional English breakfast. Please note if you book on-line you can receive £10 off your meal, I just missed the button to press so missed out! I'm unsure about disabled access to the rooms but certainly the restaurant would be fine.

We drove from Sherborne to spend an hour over a belated Birthday lunch for my sister, followed by a relaxing hour or two in Sidmouth. Finding the Golden Lion Inn on line decided to give it a try, we were not disappointed. Arriving around 1 o'clock, we found the car park fairly full and wondered if we should have booked, going inside we were greeted by a very friendly member of staff, we requested a table for 3, we could see how busy it was, luckily they had one table left but suitable for a party of 6, without hesitation we were seated, within a minute we had menu's glasses and a jug of water, eating utensils and serviettes, the waitress explaining they were busy but she would come back. There was a very good choice on the menu plus around 20 more choices on the " specials board " the waitress passed us with plates of wonderful looking food, seeing what the family on the next table had, and re thinking our choices, we chose the venison sausages and mash, liver and bacon, steak and ale pie, following our choice of potatoes and veg, the food arrived hot and together, followed up with rhubarb crumble /double cream, Creme brulee, and cheese board, coffee's and a brandy, £69 a fair price for an excellent lunch, we will return !
4. The London Inn

I was invited here by a friend and wasn't sure at first! It's like one of those little gems.. The pub has ideal parking to the rear and great outside space. Very clean and welcoming. The food however was amazing for the price! Personally I would have happily paid more as I was surprised at the quality and the amount. So happy I went for another visit with my mother. Will definitely be showing my face again. The staff and clientele are all so welcoming! What a truly wonderful place and highly recommend to anyone. Well done guys you have a fantastic establishment.

I have been here before, and was very nice, but was disappointed this time, had Rump steak which was chewy, and the others said the same, came with what it said, but quarter of a tomato, and quarter of a mushroom I thought was a bit skimpy, seeings it was £15.95 insult, so had to ask for extra mushrooms, which I think they also charged for. The sweets was not a lot of choice, and no cheese and biscuits, so was not very happy with it.

Whilst the staff apologised for the noise, this did not help the fact that my meal, a ploughmans, was poor and bad value for money. Would I go again? No, sorry.Weâre sorry you feel like this, we always table check to make sure our valued patrons are happy and if there is anything else we can do to make their visit to our establishment more enjoyable.
