  “This pub is set in a beautiful location and is a really lovely place to visit. It’s very well run and organised, and it’s popular for good reason! The food was absolutely delicious. We visited on a busy Sunday lunchtime with a party of 18, and they catered for us effortlessly. The service was great, everything was well organised, and we couldn’t fault our experience. Would definitely recommend!”

  “The guys at this beautiful Inn were kind enough to allow us to park up our motorhome overnight. We popped in for some food and a drink. We were met with live morris dancing. We had a fabulous meal, it was delicious. Also dog friendly so little Walter the dog was happy! They had plenty of water bowls and treats and dog snacks at bar! He was even treated to a doggy cup cake! Thanks for making us welcome!”

  “This pub is absolutely amazing, fully recommend it. Had the ploughmans lunch and wow the portions and quality was spectacular. I recommend sharing because its so large. Great quality bread, chutney, ham, etc. Coleslaw can be iffy sometimes, but this one tasted fresh and had a great mustard sauce. Ambiance is lovely and so are the staff”

  “Title: Absolutely exceptional beef and ale pie! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I dropped in for an early dinner yesterday between 5:15 PM and 6:30 PM and had a fantastic experience. I ordered the beef and ale pie, and it was absolutely gorgeous. The pastry was completely to die for—perfectly buttery, crisp, and flaky. The filling had an incredibly intense depth of flavor, with the rich meat and ale blending together beautifully.This was my second visit to The Old Inn, and once again, the staff were very welcoming, attentive, and genuinely happy. It speaks volumes about their great working environment! The atmosphere is wonderfully calming, and on both occasions, the background music was 100% my bag. I highly recommend stopping by if you want a top-tier, comforting meal. I loved the whole experience!”

  “I've had lots of great lunches at The Old Inn at different times of the year. On a cold winter's day, it's a lovely place to enjoy comfort food near the log burner. A few weeks ago here, I had one of the best Sunday roasts I've ever had. Today was a gorgeous sunny spring day on Dartmoor with another good excuse for lunch at The Old Inn. Again, friendly and efficient service, tasty food and good beer. Many thanks!”

  “Located in the village of Widecombe in Dartmoor, it was a first time visit on good recommendation for a Christmas dinner. Just 22 mins from Newton Abbot, there is an extensive however unlit car park just off site. We were welcomed by the friendly staff in this charming authentic old coaching Inn. There was a well stocked bar with various beers on tap, comfortable fireside seating, even a little shop for supplies! The food was of good quality, however could have been hotter, fully recommend the Cheeseboard for a savoury dessert. The atmosphere was very cosy and warm on a bitterly cold evening and all of the staff very helpful and cheerful.”
