Cosy and quite compact

Lived in south molton for 11 years and last night was the first visit to the stags head inn, I really wish I had discovered it years ago, the pub outside is absolutely lovely and inside is really cosy. The staff was so nice and friendly and good food was delicious. I have travelled a lot and love quality food, and my fish stew did not disappoint it was flavoursome and very tasty. Highly recommend and can?t wait until our next visit.

Exceptional food in a stunning country setting. The pub and wonderful staff provide a real home from home feel.
Caters incredibly well to children. Highly recommend if you're looking for a real country pub.

We visited for Sunday lunch today from Exeter with our friend from South Molton, the Roast Dinner was absolutely lovely and a very good price. When we visit our friend we always come to the Stags for lunch and have never been disappointed. See you again soon.

Very friendly staff, prompt efficient service, food was slightly disappointing, but I?m not going to let that deter me from going back and trying something else.

I have had this review taken down on trip advisor. So I?ve come to Google:
The food was average, every plate came out with cubed frozen potatoes. No veg or garnish, just beige. So for £18 on average per dish, that is pretty hefty. Service wasn?t great, slightly rude.
As soon as you walk in, there?s an overwhelming smell of damp/musk. I feel this is a relevant statement to make, as when you?re eating it makes it unenjoyable. I understand it?s an old building, but no other pub of similar age or building type (thatch) has ever been as pungent as The Stags at Filiegh.
The toilet was full of air fresheners, so they know they?re ?trying? to hide the smell of something...
It?s also highly suspicious, to take down a legitimate review from a customer who had that experience. We paid the bill, but this is the feed back we?ve given.
What?s the point of having a review platform, if you (the business owner) take down the one you don?t like? Experiences are subjective to each person.

Visited last weekend- the food and service were both poor. All the meals were served with cheap deep fried cubed potatoes (whether you like it or not) the mains were hit and miss, the poor tenderloin was tough but the pork duo was ok.
The reason for the 1 star is the building/environment. The minute you walk in the smell damp hits you. It?s overwhelming and so off putting. Staff are very curt and snappy. Wasn?t a good experience and would not return. I cannot see how the reviews are real for this place, something is off.
