The staff really know their stuff. Let me try a sip before I committed to a whole pint, which was a nice touch.

Nice, relaxed pub. We had a good time with the karaoke. The music selection was decent, though the system cut out once. A fine spot for a casual evening out.

The room was so spacious and clean, just what I needed. It&#39;s a busy pub downstairs, but honestly, you wouldn&#39;t know it up here. So quiet. A really comfy spot to unwind.

The afternoon tea was lovely. I really appreciated how fresh the sandwich fillings were, and the scones were still warm. A proper treat.

Been coming here for years, and the pizzas are always spot on. The base is just right &ndash; not too doughy, holds up well. The four cheese and pepperoni are my go-to. Just wish they&#39;d keep napkins stocked for the outdoor tables, that&#39;s all.

The roast beef sandwich was really tasty, the beef was tender and the bread fresh. Portion was generous with a nice side salad. Owners were lovely, made us feel welcome. A solid lunch spot.

The tasting menu was pricey but honestly, the portions were generous enough that I left comfortably full. You get what you pay for with the quality of the local ingredients.

Been coming here for years, and the marina view from the window tables is still the main draw for me. Perfect for a quiet evening watching the boats. The sunset last week was a real treat.

The sea view from the table was the real star. We had a window seat and it was just stunning, especially as the sun started to go down. The outdoor garden looked really nice too, will have to come back in warmer weather to try it.

Been through most of the menu, and it&#39;s all solid. The mussels and the lamb really stood out.

The chicken tikka jalfrezi special was pretty good, with a decently thick sauce. Staff were friendly.

Been back a few times for the pizza. It&#39;s the real deal, thin base with that proper chewy crust. Tastes just like the ones we had in Naples last year. Staff are lovely, never feel rushed.

Stayed overnight, the room was clean and warm. The bed was super comfy, got a great night&#39;s sleep. It&#39;s basic, but honestly, for the price I paid, it had everything I needed. Can&#39;t complain.

Been coming here for years, the Sunday roast is the real deal. The beef is always spot on, falls apart with a fork. They do a smaller portion if you ask, which is handy. Decent spot for a relaxed Sunday.

Stopped by for a coffee and ended up trying their brownie. It was warm, gooey in the middle, and not too sweet. Staff were really friendly, which was nice. Just a solid, simple spot.

The carvery had a nice selection of vegetables today, all very fresh and not overcooked. The roast potatoes were crispy on the outside, which I really appreciate. Good to see some healthier sides available alongside the meats.

Been coming here for years, it&rsquo;s a proper local spot. The owners always remember you. Menu&rsquo;s simple but they do a solid roast on Sundays. Portions are decent, nothing fancy. Just a reliable meal.

The pepperoni pizza with spicy honey was spot on. Had it with a pint in the sunshine. The pressed lamb shoulder inside was really succulent. Can&#39;t beat this spot on a sunny evening.

The room was a good size and spotless, which was nice. Plenty of space to spread out without feeling cramped. Handy for exploring Sidmouth, too.

The mussels in creamy sauce were a generous portion, really hit the spot. Staff were attentive without being overbearing.

Lovely spot by the water. The burger was really tasty, and the wrap too. I appreciated the comfortable seating, made it easy to relax and enjoy the view.

Lovely spot for a drink by the water. The outdoor seating really gives you that holiday feeling on a sunny day.

The tasting menu was a real treat. Every course looked stunning, like a little piece of art on the plate. The flavours were spot on, and the wine pairings just worked with each dish. A lovely, relaxed evening.

The wine was chilled just right. Had a glass with the steak, really hit the spot. Good list to choose from.
