Great value place with consistently good food and service.
Best thing after food, service, cleanliness and location ... free WiFi and for those of you that know the area .. zero mobile reception as Woolacombe is a beautiful getaway ... sometimes.. .. just sometimes.... it's nice to have a little shot of the Internet. Family friendly. Fab Sunday roast. Open for morning coffee. Seating inside and out. Can be lively in the evenings too.

We were back in France as we went through the door of this excellent little restaurant. Our hosts were welcoming and entertaining, the food was delicious......... the complimentary platter of hors-d'oeuvres which I wasn't expecting was very welcome.
I enjoyed a warm crab mousse, followed by rib eye steak (cooked just right) and we all finished with the selection of at least five taster desserts which included a little melting chocolate pudding. A lovely evening .......... thank you!!
3. The Thatch

Down in Croyde Bay for a long weekend, we visited The Thatch twice and on both occasions were very impressed.
This is a beautiful old building which has obviously been extensively extended over the years, but it retains an 'old fashioned' atmosphere.
Service was friendly and welcoming, and it's one of the few pubs I've been to where there's table service.
There's a reasonable selection of real ales, ciders and lagers.
The menu is comprehensive and food quality is excellent.
Prices were higher than a normal pub, but don't forget this is a holiday area and quality was good.
Even though we were out of season, on both Friday night and Saturday lunchtime business was brisk, so if you're planning to visit for a meal (as opposed to just a pint or two) my advice would be to book.
Thoroughly recommended.

Very friendly staff nothing to much trouble. Had salt & pepper squid, delicious & the mussels were the BEST I've ever had, so fresh & served in a delicious cream sauce.
Main was a huge cheese burger with bacon sliced gherkin & homemade tomato relish. Just scrumptious.
Would definitely recommend this lovely restaurant.

Come to Croyde 3 times a year but don't normally eat here.
Nice and quiet on a Sunday and really good fish and chips and beef lasagne. Both were off the specials board so might not be available all the time.
Will certainly eat here again next year.

The ambience of the restaurant would be greatly improved if the lighting was more subdued in the evening. There were candles on the tables but unfortunately these were not lit. Service was slow at times. The menu was quite varied although disappointingly lacked a grilled fish option as a main.

Just off the square in Braunton in amongst surf shops and boutiques with Seating outside in a corner of the car park and inside. Really good home cooked food, not your everyday baguettes/jacket pots. Can recommend the mixed bean chilli and corn fritters, the humous and falafel salad wraps also very good. All day breakfasts looked and smelled good too. Local beer available. Free xln wifi and excellent coffee.

What an amazing night we had for our work Christmas dinner! Lovely drinks on arrival, and cocktails. The food was outstanding, especially the starter of smoked haddock scotch egg...incredible! The only slightly negative comment i have about the mains was the Brussels sprouts. Why was there mustard on them? It made them taste really bitter...such a waste of delicious sprouts! Other than that, everything was delicious. I will return with my other half as he was most jealous!

I know we were out of season but it was a glorious sunny day in half term. It’s a lovely little place, more room outside than in, in pretty Gardens. However, the food was mediocre. There were 8 of us , 3 of whom had the cream tea. there was a very long wait and the drinks were served first and then quarter of an hour later the scones arrived but we had already drunk the tea. We then had to wait another ten minutes at least, for the sandwiches and then another long wait for the hot food. The had run out of bread so our order had to be changed. I know they were short staffed and it was out of season but it was very disjointed service. Scones were lovely but pasties were mediocre. It was ok but expensive for poor service.
