Had an exceptional meal last night at Ode in Shaldon. We really enjoyed ourselves. The whole meal was delicious and memorable. Really great service, delicious food and an enviable eco-conscious policy. Organic and seasonal, very high quality produce used without exception. The homemade onion seed flatbread with tapendade were a really nice change to the usual bread and butter/olive oil. The vacuum cooked duck and venison were tasty and succulent and the cheeseboard was a proper enormous cheeseboard packed with diverse and interesting flavours. A really nice place to treat yourself and friends.

My main course was frankly very poor. It wasn't even hot so I complained (first time ever). They replaced it with apologies and it was better but still not good. The rest of the meal was fine. To be fair they didn't charge us for my substandard main course and also threw in the wine as a freebie.

The food is great i went with 3 other people i will make sure i will be back

A traditional lunch-time roast was served with speed and efficiency on very hot plates! A smaller portion was available. The puddings are superb and vary from roulades to Bread and Butter pud with custard. The delicious cakes and pastries ensure your diet fails. A very wide range of teas are on offer and the staff...simply delightful.

Took my father in law here for a Sunday lunch treat. This pub has in the past had an excellent reputation. We were very disappointed. We were the first to order food, and were told that there were no chicken dishes as 'they had run out of chicken'!! The next people to order had chicken. The steak meals we ordered were reminders of 60's pub food. The steak was tough, and the whole dish lacked imagination. To add insult to injury, having finished our main course, the sweet took an hour to arrive, and the most preparation required was 5 minutes in the microwave! This lunch cost around £20/head - no wine included. The staff were very pleasant, the surroundings were dowdy and desperately in need of redecorating.

Very nice quaint old english pub, the food is excellent very large, quality portions, nice staff too. well worth a visit.

Really good food and lovely staff. They were more than happy to alter dishes to meet my dietary requirements and as someone who has travelled to India several times, it is the closest ive ever had to the taste of genuine indian cuisine

we wnt to the Bearslake for a meal and had a wonderful evening, All the staff were very helpful, very nice and couldnt have been friendlier. As ex publicans ourselves we are probably more critical than most, but I wouldnt hesitate to recommend this establishment to anyone.

Imaginative menu, attractively presented in a welcoming atmosphere. Could happily eat here every week so will be back. Sheila

Could only afford to eat their once during the holiday, but on a wet weekend it was a warm inviting place to eat, with a good atmosphere. My lad especially liked the wi-fi connection.

We eat at the Burrator regularly and have never had a poor meal. Food is fairly plain but very well cooked and presented. The gammon steak is excellent - served with pineapple, cheese and 2 eggs. £8.95

The food was amazing for the price. will be going back again!!! loved it.

i loved it especially the puds

A dozen of us ate a wide selection of meses - my companions seemed content enough but I thought the food was generally uninteresting, I wouldn't choose to eat any of it again; Lebanese beer was almost tasteless; surroundings were tatty; expensive for a selection of dull dishes that were all like starters - not a meal.

Very disappointed with the Barbican Kitchen, we were rushed, were not offered bread like everyone else and my order was wrong. Having booked this for my anniversary I was very disappointed and would not return. Morgans is much better and your treated like you should.

The perfect place to go for lovely food all home cooked nothing is to much trouble, the service was very good cheerful young girls to serve your food. the puddings are fantastic very moorish. would recommend a visit.

Recently tried this restaurant again, after a couple of years absence. We were made very welcome and sat in the conservatory with outstanding views over Plymouth Sound. looking at Plymouth from this view gives a whole new aspect!! The food we ordered was first class, both in taste and presentation. Service was pleasant & non obtrusive, while their wine list tastefully matched the accompanying fish dishs. This restaurant may be difficult to get to, but you need to get there while you can still get a seat with a fantastic view & brilliant food.

Having visited the Manor on a few occasions recently I must say that the quality of the food is superb. Last night i had cajun spiced gurnard and for £9-95 was one of the best main courses i have ever eaten. The menu is varied and there is a good choice of specials which change regularly. All the food is home cooked and the chef is excellent. Also recommend the fish & Chips & the goats cheese & vegetable lasagne.
