Coombe Cellars Newton Abbot

The menu is excellent and reasonably priced. The service was friendly and prompt, and the views were fantastic. The cocktails were enjoyable, and they even included a lovely "Happy Birthday" message with my dessert. Thank you for making it a memorable visit!

What an amazing evening! This was honestly some of the best food I've ever tasted! I highly recommend the pork and scallops; they were absolutely delightful! The staff was friendly and attentive throughout our visit, and we were seated at a table with a breathtaking view of the water.

The food took a little while to arrive, but it was absolutely worth the wait. The scallops were cooked to perfection. Amber provided outstanding service. I will definitely be returning. Price per person: £20–30. Food: 5/5. Service: 5/5. Atmosphere: 5/5. Recommended dishes: Roasted Pork Belly and Scallops. Ver carta

This pub boasts amazing views! The food is quite good, and the service is friendly. Although the vegan options could use a bit more excitement—particularly the main courses, which were rather average—the hummus and falafel appetizer was delicious, and the apple crumble dessert was a real treat. I mentioned that it was my birthday, and they went out of their way to make the evening memorable!

This delightful gastro pub provides a beautiful view of the river. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. However, the decor could use some updating, as it looks a bit worn and neglected in some spots. Sadly, the quality of our food was merely average and tended to be a bit overcooked. While the presentation was appealing, it didn't really justify the prices. Nonetheless, we still enjoyed a pleasant evening overall.

The food was mediocre, and the service was extremely slow. We weren't offered any discounts, drinks, or snacks while we waited. Even though we only ordered main courses, it took almost two hours for our food to be served. The chips were undercooked, the goat cheese lacked flavor and was poorly presented, and the roast potatoes and vegetables accompanying the sea bass were cold. Overall, I was quite disappointed and won't be coming back. The cost per person ranged from £30 to £40. Ver carta

During our visit, we experienced some staffing challenges, and there were two new chefs who appeared to be a bit overwhelmed. Our server, although working alone, was very friendly and considerate. He even offered to remove our meal from the bill due to the long wait. However, I had a concerning incident where I was inadvertently served a Peroni with alcohol instead of the alcohol-free option I had requested. I didn’t realize it until my third sip, which was quite upsetting since I don’t drink. Overall, the cost per person was approximately £30-£40.

The location and ambiance of the restaurant are fantastic. It's beautifully decorated, and there's a great selection of pints to choose from. During our visit, we only ordered one starter each since we were out for a walk. The dishes were well-presented and full of flavor. The crockery was lovely, but the cutlery fell short of the overall experience and could use an upgrade to match the quality of the food. When we returned on a Sunday, we were disappointed to learn that food was only available with advance reservations. Overall, the service was geared towards dine-in customers.

Overall, the food was acceptable, but it didn’t justify the price. The belly pork consisted mostly of fat, with very little meat, and the portion size was tiny. The squid was crispy but sadly lacked any flavor in its coating. The scallops were undercooked—one didn't even have any color on the outside—and the accompanying items didn’t enhance the dish at all. There were randomly placed raw tomatoes and spring onions, although the parsnip purée was quite nice. Unfortunately, the rest of the dish fell short. On a positive note, the lamb rump was good. The dining room was quite cold; even with the fireplace on, we felt chilly in our sweaters. To make matters worse, one section of the floor was s... Ver carta
