We came for lunch, and returned for dinner! Fantastic, patient and very hard working staff. The food was lovely... a quirky take on a tapas menu which offers a lot of variety and flavour. Thank you Starter Bar, you guys are great:)

We had an early dinner here before our sunset safari. After trying few places where we couldn’t find bookings for dinner, we just walked in here and were greeted quite warmly. Like the modern and quite unique feel of the bar. Loved the cocktails. We ordered leek and potato soup and chickpea lentil curry to go along side onion rings. Food was excellent and so was the service. Clean restooms was a bonus in such a busy town.

The service is a little on the slow side but we are on holiday and weren't in a rush. The food was nice, its like a tapas bar, but it looks like people don't realise this considering the comments. The staff are really pleasant, very young and you do have to ask for some things twice. Overall we had a pleasant evening here

The food and the service were both at an excellent standard, the atmosphere was also excellent. Highly recommend for people on their own or in a small group.

Our favourite place to eat in Ilfracombe. In fact, my husband's favourite meal ever was the chicken & bacon carbonara. Don't expect huge portions as this is what the name suggests, a place serving starters. Ideal if you don't want a large meal. Plenty of choice, enough to warrant several more visits!
