"We had the best Sunday lunch visit to Martin and Lisa’s at Comyn Farm whilst on holiday in Devon. The food, service and setting were all amazing. We were made to feel very welcome from the moment we arrived and Nelson was guarding our table! Had a great local beer on draught and the food was lovely and one of the best Sunday lunches we have ever had. Nice to hear where it was grown and I am glad I didn’t have breakfast as there was so much! It was clearly a family affair, with everyone involved, which it made it even more special and endearing. Had a final surprise when the bill came and I could believe what value for money the whole experience was. Would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good traditional Sunday lunch in an amazing setting with a great family."

"Booking a table proved a bit of a marathon, with three phone calls going straight to voice message saying you can't leave a message so phone back and two e-mails going unacknowledged..... Fourth call got through tho'. Not sure what we were expecting from the...pictures and reviews but the pub had loads of parking nearby and a reasonably level access into the pub from the car park. Equally unsure about the new refurbishment as it seems to have eliminated most if not all of the character of the pub. Sunday lunch was just barely ok. The beef was flavoursome, if a little tough. Presentation was a little haphazard , perhaps. The Nut Roast vegetarian option looked a mess but was apparently more than acceptable. The service by the young and pleasant staff was perfectly fine, if a little slow at times. All in all, and taking into account the fact that the Ilfracombe area on a Sunday in early November is a bit of a culinary desert, everything was decent enough but nothing to shout out Gosh, that was good'. Would we ever go back? Pretty certainly not. And lastly, we were overcharged, which I did not notice until later. I do hope it was a genuine error as overcharging by whatever means did seem to be rather common during our three day stay in Ilfracombe. The venerable change for a tenner when a twenty was given happened twice during our stay......."

"We left absolutely full, and very happy. My daughter had the pancakes with bacon and maple syrup...they were HUGE, 3 massive pancakes with 2 rashers of bacon, butter and a jug of syrup. She couldn't finish it, although it was so tasty. I had the chicken salad, again a big bowl full generous with the chicken and a nice mixed salad with plenty of tomatoes and peppers etc in it too. Also, an Oreo milkshake and a coffee . The only disappointment was the coffee which I found to be slightly bitter for my taste, but others may be fine with it, just a personal taste/preference thing. Service was quick, and staff friendly. I hope it is busy for them, it's a bit tucked away up in the High Street for a lot of the tourist trade who seem to stay down by the Quay, it's well worthwhile going up to the High Street to visit this place."

"We went for an evening meal here because it said they were dog friendly. We had our 4 year grandson with us and found to our dismay when we arrived that dogs were not welcome inside. We all sat in the garden and ordered our food. It took 45 minutes for the food to arrive. It was cold outside by the time it came and our grandson was tired of waiting and no longer hungry. When we asked if the food was coming they said that they had a very small kitchen and the restaurant always took priority. I have to say the restaurant had only a couple of people eating so I'm not sure why we're weren't served quicker. We were all cold and fed up by the time the very average) food came. Not a good experience!! Saying you are dog friendly was a little misleading. Dogs welcome outside would be a better statement. Sorry but can't recommend this pub."

"I visited on a couple of occasions whilst living in Ilfracombe over winter. One of the multiple cafes on the high street this cafe is quite hard to see into as it suffers from condensation on the interior full windows, which makes it difficult to see inside and thus assess if there is room to sit. Once inside there cafe is split into 2 small halves, with the cash desk flanked by cake displays, with chalk writing detailing what cakes are available that day and at what price. On every visit, the staff were friendly but seemed overwhelmed/inexperienced and anything ordered from the menu took some time to arrive as there seemed a lot of multi-tasking going on. The menu was very poor in terms of visibility and I've attached some pictures to illustrate how faint the writing was. Seemed to attract a younger clientele maybe based on being associated with the young people running the cafe. Unfortunately both the savoury food and cakes were quite underwhelming in taste and texture. Given the competition nearby it's hard to justify a visit."
