The Devonshire Dumpling

A train trip away on the Tarka Line. We found the Devonshire Dumpling to be a very homely pub with great staff and good choice of menu, reasonably priced. Delicious home cooked food. Highly recommended, we'll be back.

This pub is a fantastic venue for a works do. There is plenty of room to accommodate even the biggest crowd. 14 of us enjoyed a super meal, lots of choice and all arrived together. The landlady is very friendly and efficient. We had a truly lovely evening.

If you are hiking the Two Moors Way, this restaurant is a fantastic place to stop. They offer delicious evening meals and a self-serve buffet breakfast in the morning, perfect for starting your day of hiking. The rooms are very comfortable and come equipped with all the necessary amenities. I highly recommend this place.

We happened to come across the Devonshire Dumpling whilst travelling on the A337. What a delightful find. We were greeted warmly as soon as we entered, the menu has something for everyone. The meal was hot and plentiful, would have liked a dessert, but just did not have the room. Will certainly call again when back I the area.

After moving to Devon over 4 years ago, we have often driven past the Devonshire Dumpling without stopping. What a mistake that was! We finally decided to have dinner there on a Saturday evening and were delighted with the delicious and tasty meal we had. The menu had a great selection, Laura, the hostess, was very welcoming, and the service was spot on. Overall, it was a fantastic choice, the food was excellent, and definitely worth adding to your list of must-visit restaurants.

Don't judge a book by its cover! We stayed and ate here two nights while walking The Devon Coast to Coast. Twice on arriving, the door was opened and we were greeted by Laura, the owner. You couldn't meet a nicer, friendly person, always smiling and so, so efficient, she was virtually on her own at dinner, still happily serving drinks, taking orders and delivering food. The food itself is very good with an interesting menu too. Our bedroom was spacious, comfortable and nicely furnished. Would we stay/dine here again? Definately!

We went for Sunday lunch with a party of 6 people. The roast dinner (2 turkey, 1 lamb) was cooked beautifully and each meat had its own gravy, not just one type for everything. We also had 1 steak and mushroom pie, which was a generous portion, and 2 children's meals. The vegetables were nicely cooked and there was a good selection. The dessert menu had 5 choices, all of which were well presented and delicious. The staff were all excellent and the service was just right in terms of speed. If you're looking for well-cooked and nicely presented food at a reasonable price, this is the place to go.

We went with another couple and all four meals were absolutely excellent. Starters were lovely and of a well judged size not too large you then struggle with your main and not too small as to be not worth the trouble. Our mains were lovely, I had a pie with the lightest puff pastry I have ever had and the whole plate was a treat, All four plates were scraped clean, a lasagna a curry and a spaghetti dish. Only two puddings were ordered as the mains were so substantial and the homemade cheesecake was amazing! One of our number turned up unexpectedly in a wheelchair (having just broken an ankle) and chairs were whizzed out the way and ramps positioned for our departure and nothing was too much...

My wife and I visited the Devonshire Dumpling in Morchard Road (on the A377) for the first time today. What an exceptional pub eatery! We will definitely be back, especially as it’s only 2 miles from our new home. Inside you will find a contemporary clean pub eatery with nice stone wall, log burner and a range of photos of Dartmoor and beyond. A warm welcome! The menu is fairly extensive. It is broad enough to give your real choices, without being overly extensive. Around 7 starters we have the prawns (with chillies) and duck spring rolls. Both were excellent. This was followed by a lamb dish and a beef bourguignon. That would have been more than enough; the portions are big enough yet the m...
