7 friends came to lunch with you yesterday we had a great afternoon,we laughed a lot. 6 of us had great food,but my choice was very disappointing calamari it came out on a tiny slate it had soggy batter around it that was falling away from the calamari I waited for the salad to arrive but it didn’t until I was able to get the attention of the very nice waitress ,I have been to kenton park many times and had great food but disappointingly not this time not value for money,I-will be back again but not for the calamari

Not a big breakfast menu but we all went for the platter and it was amazing! Both in size and variety! Would highly recommended.

Our lunch with 5 other friends, all of whom are widows, was again a most enjoyable time. The togetherness in the Safari Pod is an excellent way of sharing lunch together. All the food we had was exceptional as it always is. This is the sixth time we have chosen to lunch together and another is booked for late in September, and also an evening in December which we all enjoyed immensely last year. All the staff are most enthusiastic and welcoming and yet again Paul is an ever-present attendee to our group though and ably supported by others of his colleagues. They are all worth more than.five for service.

An excellent way to spend a few hours. Cannot fault anything - a real treat in superb surroundings. Highly recommended

We celebrated a birthday with 3 generations of family with a lunch in a safari hut in the vineyard at Kenton Park. The initial welcome was a bit lacklustre until the amazing Paul arrived at the table. His energy and enthusiasm made us feel genuinely welcome and the whole Kenton Park experience was top notch thereafter. We started with a glass of the ‘cheeky fizz rose’ which was delicious. The very comprehensive lunch menu offered a wide range of fish and meat dishes - available as individual dishes or sharing plates. We started with a selection of light bites for the table to share - the baked Camembert and the monkfish bites were delicious. For mains - 2 chose scallop and monkfish skewers which were served on a bed of fresh green vegetables and were really outstanding, one chose a steak platter and was delighted and the rest of the party shared a roast chicken carved at the table which went down a treat. Deserts were brownies and ice cream and a gourmet plate which was a selection of bite sized deserts. The brownies (laced with cherries) were melt in the mouth. We drank a bottle of the vineyard’s own ‘ Runner Duck’ Sauvignon Blanc. The setting in the vineyard was delightful and the safari hut’s location away from the main restaurant meant that the children could run around without disturbing other diners. This was not a cheap lunch, but represented real quality in an unusual and intriguing setting. It was excellent https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g2021723-d25987937-r967235011-Kenton_Park_Estate-Kenton_Devon_England.html#

Lovely place and wonderful grounds. Most of our meals were excellent, apart from the lamb extravaganza for two. We were not asked how we would like the lamb and found that the meat was very much overdone. Perhaps a fault on our part for not specifying medium but most chefs would not assume that the lamb should be extremely well done. Also there was enough to feed at least three.

With two of our party having serious dietary needs it was a pleasure having those met without any fuss making the whole evening extra enjoyable. Food, drink and service all excellent

Had an early dinner, sat outside, which was a nice relaxing setting, great food, excellent service. Live locally so will definitely be back.

We had the most amazing lunch yesterday at Kenton Park Estate. It was my husband's birthday and we pre-booked the Seafood Platter which was full of the most lovely selection of seafood including, lobster, crab, mussels, calamari and more. We received a warm welcome and a complimentary glass of fizz to start the celebration which was a lovely surprise and most appreciated. Thank you very much for such a lovely afternoon.

We were told by many that this was the place to be, so we thought we would give it a go as we enjoy Spanish cuisine and culture, however we left very disappointed. The food was way below what I was expecting, our waiter was quite miserable and the bill was high. I wouldn't have cared about the bill if the food was on point. Very disappointing unfortunately however I'm sure it's usually very good. I'd consider in the future spanish music for the restaurant.

Always a lovely meal at Maritimo, and with fabulous views across Plymouth Sound. We eaten there many times, so I know our most recent experience was a rare exception, but to run out of garlic bread and short on chorizo, especially the latter, meant that some of our favourite tapas options were not on the menu! Nevertheless, four of us spent a happy three hours chomping our way through pretty much everything else. Highly recommended (but check they have enough chorizo!) ;-)

We had visited for lunch this week. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by their friendly staff and shown to our table. The food is top notch and the wine too and not over priced either. I would highly recommend Kenton Park Estate its such a lovely place to visit for a special occasion or just coffee and cake. We have booked again for Christmas time and we cannot wait.

Our first visit. My friend & I had such a lovely afternoon. Excellent food and wine. All staff super pleasant and efficient. Walked around the vineyard and grounds after lunch. Beautiful and imaginative planting. Hoping to return soon for a tour. Really impressed by the whole enterprise.

We had an amazing afternoon at Kenton Vineyards we were seated in the cabin huts in the vineyard was a lovely setting and were given a complimentary glass of fizz for my mums birthday. Service is naturally a little slower as you are seated away from the main restaurant but we were ok with that. Food was outstanding we loved it. My only feedback is we didn’t get arancini balls that were included in the Italian platter and the bread basket focaccia didn’t taste very fresh. Overall amazing experience and can’t wait to be back.

Excellent lunch although not all things on menu were available. Service slow, but we could only see two people serving so that was probably the reason. Very charming people wonderful setting and an obviously good chef.

AMAZING!! We reserved a safari-style hut to celebrate our wedding anniversary with our family on Saturday at lunchtime. There were six of us. Firstly, the greeting and hospitality were superb. The service was very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without being overwhelming. The hut experience itself was fantastic—very comfortable even though we were experiencing a typical English wet summer day. The food was exceptional, as was the wine. Thank you for a lovely day and the complimentary fizz to celebrate our anniversary.

Well, what a fabulous time we had ! The ambience of Kenton Park estate is perfect for a sunny day. The planting and seating are tastefully spaced, well planned attractive and add to the feeling of relaxed quality. The service was excellent, attentive and unrushed. The food was delicious, the men had thd lamb extravaganza, we girls the moules and prawn tosdadas ( diificult to eat ) . Deserts.... fabulous. Worth noting that the seafood platter needs to be pre ordred. Conclusion: beautiful place, great food. Will be visiting again soon
