Food was fresh and tasty, very generous portions.Will definitely be back soon.Walkability: In the centre of Bovey easy to walk into Parke or local deli's.Food & drinks: Gorgeous bar and dining area. Very comfy and homely decor.

Do you know, when Rob owned the Hotel it was fab. Tonight I asked "Do you sell Teignworthy?" "No we are something or other brewery now, all Badger Brewery!" "Shame, a local, better beers would be nice". "Do you sell Golden Champion, as per your poster, great pint!" "No, we don't do that, well we do in bottles!". "Hey ho, Thursty Ferret it is!"The pub is a shadow of it's former self. Barman sadly left his charisma at home. Beer ok. Empty pub. I understand why. Times move on, but when Rob owned the pub they were great times. A sense of belonging and community. Now they even seem miserable serving the poor selection of beer that they sell. Shame. Call me a miserable git, but I used to love that pub!

Dreadfully long wait for drinks & food . One and a half hours. People who came in after our group were fed before us. Carrots which should have arrived, never did. It seemed the staff didn?t have a clue. Kept asking what we?d ordered. They never asked for a pre order for our group. When I asked the young waitress who had just started yesterday?. If ?it was always like this?? ? she was rude to me and said, ? That wasn?t very nice ?. Well she was correct, my experience was not very nice. This was witnessed by another customer . I did not appreciate her tone when she told me I should expect to wait this long within a group. I have eaten out countless times in a group without this bad service. Her short experience of service does not compare to mine. We were not even offered a complimentary coffee. I won?t return. Best thing was the pub dog!

Stayed as a solo female traveller Oct 2023. Arrived a bit shaken after some bad news and was met with absolute kindness and care, nothing was too much trouble. Lovely clean room, was kindly ungraded to a larger one than I booked. Friendly bar downstairs with great food, lovely welcoming locals. Breakfast was amazing, staff were incredible. Would definitely stay there again.

Excellent food and great service also a couple of good real ales.We came back for our anniversary dinner. Such a good choice. The food was excellent, with good service. Three real ales and a selection of cider and larger. You can also bring your dog in to the bar area.
