Reviews in Barnstaple

Wonderful food with exemplary service in a lovely restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyable experience. We will definitely return.

The food was incredible, beautifully presented and sourced locally. The service was also brilliant, we will definitely be recommending to family and friends.

A fabulous meal, beautifully presented, exquisite attention to detail and flavour and great service.

Always a pleasure to eat Robert's food. Imaginative dishes with intense flavours, beautifully presented. We were looked after nicely by the staff too.

What a wonderful hidden gem. I almost don't want to write this review in case too many people discover the place. But, here goes anyway. The food was superb. The combinations of flavours, textures and pure visual appeal were excellent. I can't recommend it highly enough. We had the wine flight too served to us by the wonderful 'Bob' an in joke you will understand when you've been there. I have been fortunate to eat in some wonderful places around the world and I can happily tell you this rates up there with some of the best. I realise that many are tightening their belts these days but this is an extravagance worthy of the word.

Only one word needed. …….Superb

We had a taster menu lunch. The food was outstanding with wonderful flavours and ingredients. The staff were friendly, attentive and very professional. A very relaxing lunch. We were on holiday in Devon so unfortunately cannot be regular customers but would defintely book if we are in the area again.

The White Horse Inn is now a cocktail and wine bar restaurant, well worth a visit Great food, wine and cocktails

The Welcome Fryer holds a Fish and Chip Quality Award from the National Federation of Fish Friers. It is one of only a handful of shops around the country to have this award. You can be confident of the quality of the product and the service at this shop

A great restaurant in the middle of Barnstaple. The staff were very friendly and efficient and the tapas all good, recommend the squid dish.

honeymoon is a great place to go with friends and family and is a favourite venue of mine (and my friends) for anniversaries and birthday celebrations.a friendly environment that is warm and comfortable with a relaxing ambiance. the service is excellent and the chef is to be compliment. my thanks to the staff for looking after us...we will be back!

Visited this restaurant and was very impressed with the service and food. I had the Seafood/ chiili tagliatelle pasta which was the best Ive ever tasted. My wife said her Lasagna was tasty and cooked to perfection. Really top food and a genuine Italian experience. Even enjoyed being watched by a Picture of Sophia Loren on the wall.

Came here with my husband on the evening of 6th October 2009 whilst on holiday in North Devon. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Special mention to our waiter Rob. He delivered 1st class customer service. Managers please take note of this young man. He is a credit to you. Will certainly be back to eat here again.

We found this restaurant on Sugarvine.Com before our visiting this area for our family holiday this year. As a consequence we (5 / 6 people) ate at The Old Custom House for dinner and a lunch. We found the food imaginative (e.g. cinnamon parfait) and exceptionally well prepared (e.g. a crab bisque that was both light and intense) and the service was attentive and friendly without being over the top. Our visit for lunch offered them a real challenge (I won’t tell you how as I’m sure they’d never want anyone to do this again!) but the staff went well beyond the call of duty in their kindness and consideration. Their approach to lunch is good fun too. They serve a number of dishes, all priced at £4 and you can order as many or as few as you like. Each was beautifully presented and delicious. We devoured ours! For the quality of the food, the prices are fantastic. Dinner for six, not counting wine was £150 and lunch for five was £70. This was outstanding value. The downstairs of the restaurant is a lovely place to sit, eat, drink and watch the goings on by the river. On both occasions we ate here we all came away with the impression that the front of house and the kitchen were trying very hard to impress, and they certainly succeeded with us. Thank you, and good luck! We'd be regulars if we lived in the area.
