We always visit this wonderful fish restaurant when on holiday in Devon. In my opinion it can?t be bettered anywhere in the country. Everything about the cod and chips is perfection. Lovely tasty white cod fillet which flakes showing it is very fresh, the lightest, crispest batter and great thick cut chips. It is all cooked with the minimum of grease left on the finished meal. To finish, the banana fritter is to die for! The portions are generous and the food is not over priced. Service is quick friendly and efficient. We will definitely be back!

Have been here a few times at lunchtime with a group of up to 10 so we always prebook. The staff are always friendly and efficient and everyone enjoys their meals. There's a good choice on the menu including gammon, sausages and various types of fish and desserts too are available. Cod and chips is available in 2 sizes, the large one is huge and the smaller is still fine.

First time visit to the Pelican and it certainly won't be our last. The food was delicious and the staff are extremely friendly. Would highly recommend you book as it does get very busy especially on Friday's.

Vegetarian options: They have a few vegan/vegetarian options and their vegan coconut curry was delicious.

I've been to The Pelican several times over the last couple of months. The fish is fantastic, huge, fresh and flakey with crisp batter - never had better. The service is great and the restaurant and loos are spotless. The only thing that could be improved are the chips - too pale, not crisp enough and stuck together - on ALL my visits.

Check closing time before visiting - as time on website different to actual closing time which we weren?t aware of! Food was okay but have had better on previous visits, no coffee as machine had been turned off due to closing! Booked on line for 7:15pm for 5 people - had we been aware that restaurant closed at 8pm we could have gone earlier or elsewhere which may have been a better option! Restaurant was very cold & although staff were pleasant & polite - we were very aware of the fact that they just wanted to go home. Disappointed.

Been here a good few times now! Good BUT could be better! Tartare sauce defo needs to be a better version! Fish is good, despite being a little oily ? Mushy peas ok... and service pretty good BUT have experienced and enjoyed better before!! Maybe a bit if an off day.... hence the 3 star review, whereas usually 4 or 5 star ? ????
