  “We arrived, set up a tab, ordered beers and asked for menu's. When we went to order we were told the kitchen had just closed 5 minutes ago. The kitchen closing soon wasn't mentioned at any point. I normally wouldn't grumble, but the attitude I got from the guy who gave us menus when I suggested he could have mentioned that when he gave us the menu was I was in the wrong as we had waited 20 minutes (max) to order. Watching them continue to bring food out for a further 20 minutes whilst we finished our drinks made it worse. Real shame, as seems like a nice pub, but the response received has caused me to write this review.”

  “Great accommodation for camping with good toilet, showering and washing up facilities. Food was decent but would not personally recommend the plume burger. However the loaded fries and chocolate brownie were much better especially given the price. Ignore my friend bless his little cotton socks”

  “Passing through so we thought we’d try for Sunday lunch. The carvery was shut for Sunday😥But they did have plated beef or chicken. We went for the beef and weren’t disappointed. Ample portions and the flavours were great. Staff were really helpful and polite. All in all a great experience 3rd May Back again. Didn’t fail to disappoint. Booked a table this time. All ready and waiting for us. Had the 2 meat option. Beef & Pork this time. Both were tender and tasty. Plenty of veg choices to accompany the meat. Another great meal, hopefully we’ll be back sooner next time.”

  “We arrived at 13:25 and were initially impressed, the staff were friendly, welcoming and even took the time to engage with our dog, which was a nice touch. We ordered drinks a beer and a wine at 13:27, followed shortly after by food, two ciabatta baguettes BBQ chicken and tuna sweetcorn and some cheesy chips. At no point were we advised of any delays, especially considering the simplicity of the order. However, after waiting an hour, we were informed that there was no BBQ chicken available. We changed this to a tuna and red onion toastie instead. We did overhear that the head chef may have been on holiday. However, for an establishment that serves food, especially on a Saturday lunchtime, you would expect appropriate cover to be in place. To add to the frustration, other customers who ordered more than 45 minutes after us received their full orders before we did. When the food finally arrived, it was very disappointing. The tuna and sweetcorn ciabatta contained no sweetcorn, wasn’t served on ciabatta and there was also no slaw with the baguette. The tuna and red onion toastie also came without any red onion. We also received no apology for the lack of BBQ chicken, the extended wait or the incorrect food. Given the long wait, lack of communication and incorrect orders, the overall experience was extremely underwhelming. We paid and left feeling disappointed.”

  “A fantastic pub with absolutely incredible great tasting food. The staff are all super friendly and this is also a great campsite with nice clean facilities.”

  “Recently refurbished kitchen, menu is limited to standard pub fare. The Grumpy mushroom pie was different, it contained chopped swede which didn't quite compliment the sparse mushroom content. The very rich gravy over powered the pie, mash potato was very nice and creamy, the accompanying vegetables, broccoli and red cabbage were delicious. Great range of local beers (Dartmoor Brewery), small range of alcohol free beer, a magnificent Sampford Orchards cider on tap. Obviously a shortage of staff, the poor lady serving behind the bar was run ragged as she was also serving the meals at quite a busy time, 18:30.”

  “My Mum and I ate in the pub two nights in a row when we were staying in Princetown. It's under new management with a new chef and they are doing a brilliant job. They are all super friendly and the dogs were made to feel as welcome as we were. Food was delicious and the service was great too. Camille the manager also showed me round the bunkhouse which is open and looks great. I've stayed in my campervan their too. Honestly cannot fault any of it!”

  “Fantastic, warm, welcoming, cosy country pub on the moors. Service was top notch. Chef definitely worth his weight in gold! Dessert started before picture taken. Everything delicious and generous portions. We will return ASAP.”

  “My husband and I went to the newly refurbished Plume for lunch today. It looks much the same inside with its flagstone floors and freshly painted walls. The staff were lovely and very smiley. They didn't serve Guinness, but they do serve their own version of stout and a very nice Dartmoor IPA. The menu was limited, but traditional. Our meal was delicious, with huge portions. I was particularly impressed by the huge sauce sachets. It's the little things... I would highly recommend it.”

  “It's a nice setting to stop for a drink, very dog friendly and nice staff, plenty of outside seating and a good spacious pub. Food was slightly sub par really, which is a shame as I think it would need to really good for people to make a special trip out. £8.50 for three chicken goujons just felt a bit pricey for what was obviously cheap frozen food. The rest was okay but you won't be blown away by it. Hope it gets better, either prices down or food quality up.”
