We stopped off for breakfast on the way back home after a few days nearby. A really friendly welcome, a fresh tasty non greasy full cooked breakfast with excellent coffee and lovely views will mean we will definitely visit again.We couldn’t resist two of the homemade cakes to take away (they also have gluten free).

Great, friendly staff who are expertly overseen by the charming owner & restaurant manger. Its seamless.Love the old school touches: fish knives and sorbets between courses.And of course, there is the view........Please don’t change.

Fryer Tucks Challaborough

Reviewed By X9511ZXgaryc

Located over looking the beach at Challborough, we walked from nearby Bigbury on sea (less than 10 minutes walk).Three courses for three of us with soft drinks about £65. The restaurant isn't licensed so bring your own (corkage charge applies).Beautiful food with attentive service from Hans, whilst watching the sun go down and surfers catching the waves. What more could you ask for.

Cosy pub, comfy sofas with lovely log fire in the winter. They are very dog friendly with a big biscuit jar on the bar and water offered. Dogs are also allowed in the restaurant as well as the bar. Perfect stopping point after a bracing beach walk! We were chatting with some locals and were told there had been issues with staff previously but they have since left and and new staff taken on.. it seems to be working as we had no issues whatsoever. They also have a new chef, the specials he created were awesome. My husband isn’t keen on sea food but when he tasted my sea bass he wanted to swap! So nice to find a welcoming pub, both for us and the dogs, especially one so close to beautiful beaches. Well worth a drive out!

The Cove

THE UK's Best Craft Beer Bar 50 yards from the beach. Amazing homemade food using local produce. Awesome range of craft beers. Barista coffee, now with two floors and balcony with stunning sea views Open everyday from 10am until late.

Part of our visits to Hope Cove are the requisite crab sandwich in this restaurant. A really popular place with the countless walkers passing through. Opened up seating upstairs and if the sun is out, you can sit outside. This is the sort of place where you wish you had ordered what the people sat around you are eating.

Our 14th Century Inn is steeped in tradition and is a short walk from the surfing beach of Bantham.

Reviewed By LondonCLK

We came for a late Sunday lunch, the place was still packed. Sitting in the older, atmospheric front room, tables were cramped but cosy. Service was charming, prices reasonable & we approved of their bespoke gin menu. Roasts were traditional & generous as was fish & chips. A lighter dish was the catch of the day (cod) served with salad minus the menu potato option. Parking was a bit of a nightmare since it was a sunny half-term day but ultimately worth the uphill walk back. Felt like an authentic English Sunday pub experience.

A fantastic lunch once again! Disappointed that due to recent wet weather we were under cover in the outside area and not completely outside but was very pleased with the atmosphere, fantastic food, attentive staff ( and with our 2 dogs) and overall experience .

Went walking down to Ayrmer Cove from NT car park, blissfully empty beach! Walked back via circular route, stopped for lunch at this 13th century inn. Food, home cooked and delicious, service well timed with good portions for us adults and children. Prices reasonable for mains, £7 for pudding but once again home cooked. I would recommend eating here wholeheartedly.

Reviewed By JerseyCowBrum

I was worried this was going to turn out to be an overpriced local pub, but although it was more than your average, the food more than makes up for it. We went with our boys, but they are at the age where it just about worked. I wouldn't have gone with any younger children - neither the menu or space would make it right for them really. I saw that they have a bbq on some nights with a different set up and that might work better for less formal. Extremely helpful front of house (owner?) was not sure who he was, but made us feel welcome, made sure the dog was comfortable and had water. What they call the bar snacks are more like starters really, and the menu is not 20 pages of inedible food, but a few choice options for fish, field and hedgerow to suit all, with some more basic, and value, children's options. Highly recommend. Make sure you book though as it is not a big place!
