Great central pub to stay in Bantham. Near the beach and the food is good.

This has always been a favourite of mine. Summer visits are very busy, so my go-to times are the winter months. Step one is a bracing walk around Bantham Ham then , step two, back to the cosy, welcoming interior of this very old pub. Log fire, glass tankards hanging above the bar, welcoming staff, and a lovely choice of local beers and beverages. The food menu varies but delivers quality, quantity and value. I chose the home cooked gammon with two eggs and crispy chips and peas. My partner chose the humus dip.They can get busy so to be sure, time your walk and book a table!!

The four of us visited The Sloop for lunch and a drink today. We had a super friendly welcome from Jamie and we chose our food, I had a basket meal of sausage and chips, the chips were amazing. The rest of the group had sandwiches which were also excellent. The Christmas decorations were stunning and put our local pub to shame. The food was very good value for money and the whole experience was a delight. Thoroughly recommend a visit.

Fabulous pub - they accommodated us as a table of 10 at the last minute and the service was fantastic - the food was beautiful especially the scallops on the specials board! Really welcoming and lovely

A cozy pub with a fireplace and dining area. Orders must be placed at the bar but they are happy to open a tab for the table. The fish pie and mussels were really nice with generous portions.Booking is recommended in advance but they do accept walk-ins if they have space. The bar area is much smaller than the restaurant.

Great pub in a great location in the village not far from Bantham beach. Nice selection of local drinks and the food was lovely. There's a great buzz to the place and the staff and locals make you feel very welcome. We'll be back!

Stopped off for lunch walking the South Coast path. Great bar staff, lovely pub. Basket meal and prawn sandwich were decent and did the job. Would recommend if you are in the area. Dogs allowed..Walkability: Great access from South Coast Path

Pub is not well kept and is quite a mess. Cobwebs on walls, incredibly sticky tables, general upkeep. About 3 parking spaces at the pub otherwise it?s a £7 fee in main parking area (card payment only).£22 for bream with roast/fried new potatoes and a cucumber salsa. The piece of bream was tiny although delicious, potatoes were swimming in oil and the cucumber salsa was not appetising at all. The chicken Caesar salad was absolutely smothered in dressing, about 90% lettuce with croutons, Parmesan and chicken. The sauce was very sickly, there were no bacon bits, anchovies, tomato, egg, it was just incredibly basic and anyone could do better at home. The beef madras was edible. Other than the quality and the food and pub, the other issue were the amount of dogs in the pub and restaurant area. There were at least 7 at one stage and they all seemed to be barking at each other with ear piercing noise levels and nothing said to the owners of any of them. This was incredibly distracting and ruined the lunch more so than the rest of the experience.

Great food here. I had the seafood platter as a main meal, it's really a started for 2 people but it was ample for me and I'm a big eater!!! Service was good too

After a day on the beach, it was a welcoming place to relax. Good beer and food, my wife said the fish and chips were excellent and my fish pie was the best I've had. Highly recommended, but a captive audience means it's not the cheapest.Ignore reviews saying there's no outdoor space, it's past the toilets.Nearby activities: Sandy beachWalkability: Beach, dunes, cliff top, rocks, river, estuary, it seems to have it all
