   Lovely pub and lovely staff. I came in on the off chance in the week with my gran, as we were passing, and was blown away by how friendly the staff were. The pub was clean, the staff very attentive and the food was lovely. It came out hot and in good time. I will definitely come back and tell others about it. Thank you Priory Hotel for a superb experience.

   Popped in for a quick bite to eat. Just ordered two side dishes and a sausage for the dog. Liam was incredibly helpful and polite. I’ll certainly be sure to pop in more often when passing in the future

   Visited here for Mother’s Day lunch, had a 3 course menu to choose from, first impression of the restaurant were elegant, classy, country pub settings with an extra sprinkle. Had 3 course meal for around £30 mark. Starter - Devon crab cake, expecting alot with this dish and I was very surprised, nice depth of flavour plenty of crab meat filling, and perfect lemon mayo to cut through with acidity to balance the dish. I also had Scallop, King Prawn & Crab Coquille - but no mash topping was being served with this dish, scallops were nice, small bite sized pieces but with plenty of flavour. Both starters were solid and how starters should be! Mains - had beef roast with side of mac and cheese. Very good sized portion with plenty of beef, and trimmings, beef was succulent, soft with depths of flavour, greens were buttery, seasoned well, carrots were soft yet had a slight bite to them but with lots of flavour. My only issue with this dish was roast potatoes and the gravy, potatoes lacked any roasting imo, think they were shown where the oven is but not put in, more of a boiled potato sadly, not fluffy or crispy and lacked any flavour at all. And the gravy, sadly a bitter gravy it accompanied the dish and did not spoil the plate, but certainly missed any real flavour, no depth to the gravy or shine, a knob of butter and some seasoning would of helped, but sadly this let the dish down. Dessert - lemon tart, now this was a palette cleanser, very sharp, super lemon and soft nice dessert to end a nice meal. Overall I would say the dinner and service was solid and certainly did not disappoint for Mother’s Day. Whole family enjoyed it and we all pretty much cleared the plates. For the price point of around £30 for 3 course I would recommend it! Overall I would rate this visit 8/10 and would visit again.

   Disappointed. Had Christmas lunch here for ten of us. There was only two Christmas turkey meal left. So eight of us couldn't have, and had to choose something else. If you want vegetables you have to order as a side dish, they don't come as part of the meal. I requested cream on my Christmas pudding...and got Milk. All for £35, did include 2 x drinks..but it was bland and disappointing.

   Spent a very nice couple of hours here recently on a Sunday, opted for the beef roast, and requested the beef be as rare as possible, thinking it would just be 'a standard beef dinner' but no, I was presented with a pair thick, moist, tender and nicely medium/rare slices of beef. The accompanying veg was hot and plentiful, as was the gravy. The place has only recently had a refurbishment so all was spick and span. Plus the fact we had a very attentive young lady looking after us all added up to me wanting to return in the not too distant future.
