About The Cridford Inn

Having built up a strong and loyal following of discerning diners at The Vanilla Pod in Torquay, Ian and Tracey Nixon moved the restaurant to The Cridford Inn in the picturesque village of Trusham, just outside Exeter in the Teign Valley. The building itself is one of the few remaining Devon Longhouses and dates back to the 14th century. They are still running the inn as a pub with overnight accommodation. A lovely space with original features including a mosaic date stone that lights up the centre of the floor. Elegantly reworked with coordinating linen and comfortable chocolate and cream leather chairs, the room is atmospheric and intimate. Come here for Ian’s accomplished cooking, with dishes prepared using the best local ingredients. Exmoor Venison, aged traceable Devon beef, Lamb from the South Hams and fresh fish and seafood from Brixham are painstakingly turned into modern British dishes. Desserts are legendary including Ian’s signature Vanilla Pod chocolate cup. Sunday lunch is a winner at £13.95 for three courses or two courses at £11.95. The rooms upstairs ensure that you can really make a night of it or use The Cridford Inn as a base whilst discovering the surrounding country.

Found this pub on the sugarvine site and booked on impulse. Great food, tremendous value with 3 courses for £13. Will we be going back? Yes please!

What a great place! Tucked away in the countryside and full of character. The owner has a high reputation already from his previous venue in Torquay and is a master patissier, that's if you have room after a delicious main course and starter. We went in December as a Party for a special and well priced Christmas Menu. Several also stayed over and were also impressed by the accommodation and breakfast. I would like to have taken up their Winter Warmer offer but unfortunately couldn't go in the week due to work commitments. However, I will certainly look forward to making another visit.

Hard to find but located in the most idyllic spot and worth the adventure of getting there. We went for Sunday lunch and were very pleasantly surprised. Big thick slices of roast beef, roasties cooked to perfection and the biggest Yorkshire pud I've ever seen. Gravy was just delicious. I don't even know where to start with the pudding - the Banoffee pie was "to die for" and hubby said pretty much the same about his pudding. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. Nothing felt too much trouble and with a toddler and baby in tow they were very accommodating. Would go again in a heartbeat.

We booked for a party of 8 in to The Vanilla Pod Restaurant for our annual family get together. On arrival we were told that there had been a mistake and we would have to eat in the bar area. This we had to accept as our taxi's had left. The situation was made worse as our taxi driver had mentioned that it was not unknown for the Inn to overbook and then 'bump' someone in to the bar area. That said the food was very nice and we had a good evening despite the problem. I would recommend the food, just be aware of the tendency for them to overbook.
