This is a good ol'fashioned pub, without any pretensions. Primarilly, it remains a drinking pub; however the new(ish) landlords have improved the food tremendously. There is a short menu on a blackboard, that serves simple but good quality home-cooked pub grub, using local ngredients. I am particulalrly partial to their Pork Teriyaki with peas and rice. Excellent and substantial. The beers are kept in perfect condidtion and the wines are of good quality too. Efficient, friendly hosts and very reasonable prices. All in all , a perfect village pub!

Went for Dinner at this small roadside Pub. The choice of meals was limited, but all meals ordered were excellently cooked & presented & the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, Can thoroughly recommend this pub.

Being relatively local I had never been to the Fox and Grapes before but did so on the recommendation of a friend. However his recommendation did not meet my expectations nor my families. None of us are hard to please but this fell well below what was expected. No menu to look through only items on a blackboard where you would usually expect to see "specials". The blackboard is not that big so the choice of food is very limited. Tables were not laid up with cutlery or condiments so we were unsure where to sit. Food was ordered at the bar but delivered by a waitress together with the cutlery. The food itself was poor - Gammon etc was more like Ham, Egg and Chips with no trommings. Pork Terryake and rice was mostly strips of grissly pork and Lasagne was not much better than could be bought as a meal for one at any Supermarket. However on the plus side the chips were good. I'm sorry but we shall not be returning but I hope things improve as I'm sure with a little more effort they could.

Having read recent reviews we decided to dine there and what a good choice. If you're after a gastro pub,(often over rated in my experience), this it isn't but if you want good wholesome food, cooked well at a reasonable price within a friendly pub and attentative staff, please visit here. It has an excellent beer garden as well. Our choices, Tariaki pork, scampi, sausage / chips, gammon with egg and chicken curry were excellent. The owners were welcoming and the atmosphere of a local pub pleasing. The menu is extensive with plenty of choice with many veggie options. Highly recommended.

Popped into this lovely pub sadly on our last day of holiday. All classic pub grab was available, and a host of beers to choose from. The owners are very welcoming and attentive. With nothing too much trouble. We had the beef chips and chutney, and veggie lasagna both were hand made. This place is worth a visit run by a lovely couple. We will make a point of going there when next in the area.

We visited the Fox and Grapes based off the recent trip advisor reviews as a group of 8. We all ordered a range of different meals all of which were home cooked and told local produce. Everyone enjoyed their meal and were treated with kindness by Linda. The prices were more than reasonable and they had a great selection of drinks to choose from including Devon cider. Would definitely recommend to others as was a lovely end to our holiday here!

Wonderful spot to sit in and have a few drinks, lovely big garden for the sunny days and cozy pub interior for the rainy days. Good looking menu as well.

Great little 'local' pub. We popped in on the off chance as we were passing through and were pleased to find it served really nice 'home cooked' food not Brake Bros ready meals like so many pubs. Really nice and good value.

Visited pub for first time for dinner with another family. Lovely menu. we selected a wide range from sausages and chips, lasagne, curry to the sliced beef. All was home cooked and exceptionally good. neither was it overpriced which was an added bonus! Will be visiting again

Good old fashioned pub with food. Recently changed hands for the 4th time. If you want a good laugh with the local people and don't mind the occasional swear word this is the place to meet people. The garden is lovely. The new owners are experienced and local people. Good for people watching.
