  “The main building is a small old schoolhouse and outside two shabby small shack like places house covered sitting areas. Enclosed area (garden🤔) Dirty tables, spillages and birds mess, in unmown area. Old Rustic spaces made out of old wood,which have been added to grounds of a lovely old small building, Schoolhouse. Has 2 large tables inside. Other areas around schoolhouse tatty. Old bbq? Junk etc near entrance to toilets. Very unsightly. Miserable young girl serving drinks at counter. £4.20 for a coffee! I did try and make conversation but she just said "um". £23 for a pizza, we did not indulge. £7.50 for bottle of cider and £5 for 330ml can of alcohol free lager. Very pricey. Will not be returning.”

  “This place really surprises my partner and me. The location could not been better, surrended by nature, it keeps the original structure and layout of the old school. We were sitting in a typical romantic table kinda of imerse in the garden, the vibe was nice. The staff were friendly, special mention to Beth, she was very accommodating and professional. The food was a whole suprise itself, short menu, high quality, fresh seafood, homemade bread. Definitely the kind of place to be surprised”

  “We had a lovely lunch at The Schoolhouse today. The food was really fresh & delicious; we shared, between 2 , the heritage tomato and burrata salad, boquorones, rosemary fries and the bread. The service was brilliant (Saturday and 24 degrees) from the 2 young lads that served us (especially the lad from near Manchester)”

  “What a shame. This place could be an absolute gem but gives the vibe that no one really cares. It is an old school house with a themed interior but we found it grubby and tired looking with weeds and broken tables to greet you as you walk in. The food was ok but expensive with 12.5% auto actually added. The staff were very pleasant. We won't go back. It's in a fab location but another £6.50 for the car park.”

  “Lovely little spot, average food/ over priced and wait staff not very professional. £20 for a duck pizza with hardly any toppings on it. Just not a great experience, I would recommend going elsewhere. Beach down the road is great”

  “Totally overpriced for very average food. £18 for a finger sandwich that didn't come with fries. I didn't ask what the fish was ( I assumed it would be haddock or cod) but I wonder if it was "rock salmon" aka dog fish as it was very rubbery. £12 for a kids fish and chips which is just crazy for what we got. Then 12.5 % service charged added automatically to the bill, service wasn't bad per se but don't think it deserved that and should be up to the customer to decide. Cute setting though and convenient for the beach.”

  “Nice vibes. Great place to go after a trip to the beach. Wish the BBQ was a more regular event and I also miss the Tiramisu on the dessert menu from last year, but still like coming here in the summer for the beer garden!”

  “Really disappointing experience at The School House in Devon. We waited around 20 minutes without being served at all. It wasn’t even particularly busy—inside the restaurant and outside in the dining area it was quite empty. Two tables had already been served and there were still four free tables, so there was really no clear reason for the delay. Eventually, we found our own seats and had to go inside ourselves just to try and get a menu—only to be told we were apparently sitting in the takeaway area. The menus were actually outside near the serving hatch, which no one had explained. After all that, we were then told it would be another 30+ minute wait for food. By this point, we’d already been waiting over 20 minutes just to be acknowledged. It’s a real shame because the menu actually looked great, but the service completely let it down. The staff came across as rude, unwelcoming, and not particularly interested. We ended up leaving without ordering and definitely won’t be returning.”

  “What a fab find near the beach on Saturday afternoon. Coffee was delicious and lunch the same. The manager/owner kindly informed us he was 2 staff down and had an extremely busy afternoon with a wedding party later on. The staff were friendly, venue sophisticatedly rustic and the food and location definitely worth making the trip for. My only criticism was the price - pretty expensive for a lunch, however I’m assuming that the hospitality venues in Devon and Cornwall have to price relative to short bursts of seasonal trade and months of much quieter periods? Highly recommended.”

  “Lovely food, lovely location. Service was ok. No meal check by the waiter, waiter got order slightly wrong. I had sent a message to say it was friends birthday and asked them to mention but nothing was said. Food was way overpriced.”
