Reviews in Okehampton

On a recent visit with some work colleagues i found the green dragon to be a complete let down. 2 years ago it was great. Great food great friendly atmosphere. Now its turned into a dingy dive. The landlord prefers to chat and drink with his friends than actually serve customers. The food is basic came out cold. Staff quite rude and unfriendly. Will not visit there again.

Really nice pub! Food was very tasty, good selection with a childs menu and a restaurant menu. Staff very helpful and we even got to meet the Chef! Would love to go back there next time we are in Devon!

On holiday in the area, drove past and, stopped as the pub looked nice from the outside. Husband ordered Paignton Pie (chicken, ham and mushroom in cheese sauce with crunchy topping) chips and peas. I had duck breast with a potato and bacon cake, vegetable rosti and a red wine and port sauce. Hubby's dinner was delicious and mine was the best duck I have ever eaten. I also had white chocolate and pistachio parfait for dessert. Fantastic :-)Reasonably priced for excellent food....pint of coke, pint of ale, 2 mains, 1 dessert £30. Friendly staff. Will go again when in the area.

My girlfriend and I was lazing on a Sunday morning and didn't want to cook a roast so we googled pubs near Okehampton and this one stood out. When we walked in we were welcomed by an open fire place and pleasant landlady. We were dubious about the food due to the rustic look of the inn, however when our roast was placed in front of us we had a huge smile on out face as it looked amazing, lots of meat and even more seasonal veg! To go with this there was a great selection of Ales, recommend the Legendry. Small selection of desserts on offer but oh my goodness, the apple, raisen and rum crumble was out of this world, not only that, it was a huge portion! Great value for money, great food and drink, gat experience. Highly reccommended.

I visited this restaurant while I was on holiday with friends. I thought it was lovely. The staff were very attentive. It is a long way to travel from Surrey.

Won't be going here again. Been a few times and it seemed ok but last time had duck and was ill from the early hours of the following day for a week - had eaten nothing else that day so it could not have been from anywhere else. Also a friend went there the same week and walked out after being served raw chicken! Not good

My next visit is on the 05/05/2012, cant wait, I arrange for my Sons/Brother/ and Nephew a couple of times a year, my dartmoor days! I hire a minibus/people carrier, and travel to some of the pubs on the moor that I first visited back in the early 70s (when I should have not been drinking) My first visit to Wonson was in 1972! never forgot a fantastic pub! As I said I cant wait! My last visits have been approx noon, this time around we should get there approx 7pm. evening hospitality!! great stuff.

Food is great , Staff are friendly and helpful

Sunday lunch at the Green Dragon is not to be missed the gravy is to die for and the whole meal is fantastic and such great value, hope they do Christmas Lunches this year if so we will be there.

A gastropub with brilliant food and a wine selection to die for. We dined in the bar where we were warmed by the woodburning stove. The 24 hour cooked pork just melted in the mouth and with a NZ Pinot Noir to drink you could not wish for anything finer. We have enjoyed many meals here and can only give it the highest recommendation. we will be back!!

thought i was going into a little country pub wrong inside was light airy, real log fire .settees and arm chairs to sit on ,food was home cooked, not prepacked ,four real ales of which i tried and where excellent will be going back more often

This is a wonderful place for those who love real food cooked beautifully. The new Chef, Ross, has the magic touch. From the best ham eggs and chips ever to partridge and venison pie to die for. This is the best place to eat at a sensible, every day price,in this area.

Seriously, this is what an English pub is all about. What's wrong with wanting sausage, egg & chips occasionally? Gastro pubs - my bottom. Quality fun pub frequented by the great and interesting with a brilliantly quirky landlady. Don't miss an opportunity to visit and see what others are failing to emulate.

Menu is extensive, food is good value for money. Always enjoy our meals there.

The Bearslake Inn is just perfect! Atmosphere relaxed & friendly but at the same time with a touch of class. The food is excellent: the chef does justice to all the local produce used. Very good customer care: you feel welcome & special the whole time you are there. We dined there on several occasions & the standards were always high.

In this day of theme restaurants, e.g. Italian, Indian, Chinese, Mexican, or fast food outlets such as KFC, Burger King, etc., the only place to get traditional British cuisine, as far as I can make out, is the British Pub. Not every pub will serve food, and some seem to range from sandwiches only, through pies only to several course meals. The attraction of pub meals, is not just the food, but the ambience of the place. There is the informality you do not find in a standard restaurant, and the comely and relaxed atmosphere you do not find in a fast food restaurant. The northmore Arms is the epitome of all that is good in local English pubs. Friendly staff, cracking grub and an outside loo to boot! This is a must for every weary traveller!

Small friendly pub with large open fire and warm atmosphere. Food is excellent for quality, quantity, presentation and cost. Food menu is varied and there should be something for everyone. Real ales are the order of the day straight from the barrel. Cider also on tap. Try it - you won't be disappointed!
