"Bad Experience we had high hopes for this restaurant but it is just not executed well. Ordered the Bread board, olives and tomato salad for starters. Half the bread was hard and stale, and the other half looked like it hadn't been baked enough. The tomato salad which was £9.95 for not even a whole tomato with 2 croutons, it was also so overloaded with poppy seeds and it tasted awful. The Pinot Grigio Blush, I was served was really cheap quality and looked more like a Zinfandel. I did ask the Waitress to check but she advised it was the correct wine although the bill did say House Rosa so I'm not sure it was the right wine. Dinner arrived and my husband's burger was fine, I had a fish dish that was more like a curry but was offered chips with it, there was no rice. Nothing was served well and whilst the meal tasted pleasant, I really didn't want a bowl of basically soup for my main meal. Added to the fact, we waiting 45 minutes to pay the bill and that was only because my husband went and found someone we could pay. Understaffed, inexperienced and just not cutting it as a decent restaurant. We also spoke to another couple leaving the restaurant and they had also had a bad meal! I would give it a miss and go somewhere else, we won't be going again. Unfortunately it probably gets by with holiday makers having a one off meal, as you won't go back if you lived local. It's ashame as it's a good location."

"The Commodore Hotel, Instow, EX39 4JN is situated in an outstanding position in the village of Instow overlooking the coast and Appledore. The Commodore opened originally in 1968 by Bruce Patricia Woolaway, Gary’s parents and later their son Gary became the entrepreneur with the help of his family. Walking up to the Commodore through the grounds is enchanting with views across the beach. On entering the Commodore, Gary stands by the door with a welcoming friendly smile assisting a person to the table or room inside the hotel or outside, nothing is too much trouble for him. Gary is very friendly, good humoured and a Gold Star and such an excellent host with impeccable manners. Inside the Commodore you can feel the ambiance, friendliness and the warmth no other establishment in Instow can match this atmosphere that provides this welcoming feeling. The service is impeccable, all the staff are so friendly and jovial with Gary, the guests, in the restaurant or outside eating – It is such a pleasure to walk through the doors – it is like home. Hence the Commodore is our favourite place in Instow to sit and relax during the week with a lovely cup of fresh tea and whatever is on offer on the menu for that day, Jacket potato, sandwiches, soup, cake, teacake, cream tea, etc. Enjoying the atmosphere, the garden and the lovely scenery or chatting or just pleasantly sitting passing away the time in such an enjoyable charming venue. And on Sunday a person can enjoy the succulent lovely roast lunch. Fabulous place to visit, Gary and his staff will look forward to seeing you, the Commodore is highly recommended you won’t be disappointed."

"This is the best place we have eaten at in Ilfracombe! Sharon and her husband plus son and sons girlfriend, made our evening there last night so special! Not only was the food the best we gave eaten but their company, the location of the restaurant, the decor and the whole vibe feel to the place was just prefect. It is an intimate dining experience which you could do as a couple on your own and have an intimate evening on your own or you could chat to everyone in there and get involved in all the discussions being held! I’ve not eaten anywhere like this before and we loved it. The menu is excellent. I had prawns in a sauce on a lovely fresh tastey bed of salad a very generous serving. He had a Camembert cheese with chilli flakes and huge chunks of warm bread a sharing dish but he managed it all For the main course he had one of the specials which was a 16oz pork chop which was MASSIVE and cooked to perfection along with exceptionally tastey vegetables of carrots, beans and red cabbage. I had the 28 day rib eye and it was again, cooked to perfection. The seating was so comfortable as well which always helps! The desert menu was all gluten free along with dairy free for some of the items and this made the night even better. The sticky toffee pudding was the best and that was from a person who doesn’t eat gluten free foods so wasn’t expecting it to taste the way it did. Sharon was the most entertaining owner we have ever had the honour to be able to sit and laugh and chat to after our meal. She went out of her way to come over and help us continue our night there. Her husband does all the cooking and he came out and also joined in. We were introduced to her son and his girlfriend and it just made the night the most involved and special one we have had ‘just going out for a meal’. We will definitely go back! Thankyou Sharon! X"
