The Smugglers - Speisekarte

This place is really atmosphereic with lots of fascinating objects to look at as well as enjoy the food and drink too. I rhightly recomend the steak kidney pie (not thqt i'm biased or anythingXD)

They managed to fit us in after walking through the door (they were very busy) Brilliant service and even better food. My steak was ordered rare was spot on. Every one in our family had a brilliant meal.

Ate early evening. Fish n chips, seafood platter. Foot reasonably quality, staff friendly. Probably overpriced for what is on offer. You are paying for the harbour side location. Not much quality competition close by so easy money imho Speisekarte ansehen

Avoid the fish pie. There's very little fish, or leek, and a huge mass of mashed potato, accompanied, confusingly by more potato in the guise of either boiled potatoes, or chips. I'm glad I chose chips, they were good, but chips have no place on a plate with a fish pie!

Very busy. Great service and seemed very efficient. However hubby's steak was tough. My fish platter was nothing special. To be honest felt a bit like a food production line which given how busy it was can't be surprising. Real character interior. Maybe we just chose the wrong time of day.

From the minute we walked in we were made to feel welcome. Excellent choice of drinks. Once we were sat at a table the service was superb, very attentive waiting staff. Very friendly relaxed dining experience. The food was outstanding, fresh, hot and super tasty. An absolute gem in Ilfracombe Harbour. Would thoroughly recommend a visit. Speisekarte ansehen

What a place! It's like an explosion in an antiques shop. Everywhere you look there's something unusual displayed on the walls or ceiling. Good strategy for the summer months too, they don't take bookings so you'll see a queue forming when they open at 5pm, thereby creating its own demand. My roast turkey dinner was very nice with a huge portion of meat, we all enjoyed our meals and service, considering they were busy, was pretty prompt. Would recommend, deserves its reputation.

Popped in on the off chance with my sons for a fathers day treat and as we were camping in the area. The waitress squeezed us in, which was much appreciated as it was very busy. We loved the decor which has about every single thing known to sea boats and the leather seating and cave like walls are a nice touch. The food was superb. I suggest going for the plaice. Its as fresh as you can get and cooked to perfection. The waitresses were always around asking if everything was OK. So top marks to them. Considering its smack on the harbour,I expected a bigger bill, but it was very reasonable and we all left with full stomachs and smiles.

Used to go here a lot with my mum over 20 odd years when on holiday in Ilfracombe, she loved it in here, had a look at the menu outside, quite pricey, but wanted a meal as a kinda nod to mum. Hadn 't been able to phone my kids to let them know wed got to Devon OK, as a poor signal/wi fi where we are staying, so asked at the bar if they had WiFi, the barman or owner, I don 't know which, turned to me and very loudly said, ' No, we expect people coming in here to eat and make conversation ' , he then encouraged the couple on the other side of the bar to join in his laughter at my request, we were then asked to sit near the bar and await a table,whilst he continued to pass comments about people...
