Quick info
About Dartmoor Halfway Inn
On Ashburton Rd in Newton Abbot, Dartmoor Halfway Inn is a restaurant that also keeps campsite pitches on site for overnight stays, with the pitches sitting near the road. Rooms are also available for those staying over, with tea and coffee facilities provided. The kitchen runs a menu of six dishes and includes gluten free options, though the choice there is limited. Orders are taken at the table by waitstaff rather than at a counter, and the kitchen keeps a last orders cutoff. It opens daily and takes walk-ins rather than reservations. Dogs are welcome on site. Overnight guests can pair a meal with a stay in a room or on a pitch without needing to travel further afield for accommodation.

“Stopped here for 10 days in March. Absolutely fantastic stay. The rooms, food and location were perfect. The manager and staff could not have been more attentive and welcoming. The little touches like extensive tea/coffee facilities and the …”

“Myself and four other ladies had lunch here today. Our waitress was so helpful and attentive and did not rush us at all. We all had lovely meals and several cold and hot drinks. When we came to pay the waitress was very helpful and had remember what we had individually ordered. I hope her skill set and patience is recognised by her employer. Good staff are hard to find and retain. We had a wonderful lunch and return again.”

“Loved our camping stay! Food was amazing, pub has a lovely atmosphere, all the staff were welcoming and happy. Felt really welcomed and comfortable. Great it was all dog friendly! :) Campsite was clean and tidy, with privacy. Only thing I would say it's near the road so can be a bit noisy! But the sound of the birds makes it all worth while! A few walks nearby but we decided to go abit more further afield. If we ever back in the area, we will be back! 100% would recommend!”

“The staff are lovely and very accomodating. Our server ran through what could be made gluten free and made it a lovely evening. There are limited gluten free choices but the ones that are available are lovely. …”

“Stopped in here on the way to Paignton and, what a lovely little pub this place is. Walked in, fairly quiet but met with a smile from all the staff - rare these days. We had a light lunch, all the food was delicious. My only gripe but this isn’t specific to this place but pubs in general these days, two adults and a 3 year old to have lunch is £50… I personally think its too steep but, cost of living etc. Thanks!”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out welcoming staff, from a smile at the door to a server who walked one diner through the gluten free options. Food is called delicious, and campers mention a dog friendly stay with a clean, tidy campsite. Caveats include limited gluten free choices, road noise at the campsite, and one lunch bill that felt steep. One waitress remembered each person's order when the table paid.
