Restaurant in Budleigh Salterton’s favourite village pub
Proper pub food made in our own kitchen, Devon-sourced steak and chicken, and a Sunday roast, served in a 1926 pub with a log fire and a big garden.
Generous plates, fair prices and a warm welcome
We’re a pub first, so don’t expect white tablecloths. Expect a proper welcome, plates that leave you full and food cooked here rather than reheated. Our ribs and chicken are from Devon, the steak is a Devon-sourced 10oz sirloin, the fish is battered in our own beer batter and the pizzas are made in-house.
Locals come in for a midweek supper after work. Families come for the Sunday roast. Holidaymakers find us on the way back from the beach and walkers turn up with muddy dogs. All of that is exactly how we like it.

- Homemade beer batter, coleslaw, BBQ glaze and satay
