Just came home from ducky, the food was delicious and enough, not a small and not a terrible huge portion, just right. Your duck breast was melting in mouth and the apple-rhubarb crumble in cute dish was exactly what I needed today evening. Thanks! And soon I will be back at you.

Excellent service, reasonably priced, and the food was a delight. Attention to detail was superb, you really get the feeling that a tremendous amount of thought has gone into every choice they have made in the process of creating beautiful food and drinks.

Discovered this lovely bistro a couple of years ago and it has become a firm favourite. Its not huge so has a lovely intimate atmosphere, whether a celebratory meal or just meeting friends/family it suits all occasions. Menu has a good selection and chages with the seasons. Chef produces great dishes, consistently and Lydia is excellent front of house. Recommend you book to guarantee a table.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our 2 course Sunday Lunch to celebrate the eve of his 70th birthday. A special mention goes to our lovely server who was a darling

Found this place by exploring the area on Google maps and seeing the rave reviews. This place lived up to the hype! Lovely little place, a 20 minute walk from where we were staying (Babbacombe). The food was delicious and the staff were very attentive.

A chance encounter in the local pub with the owner led to us booking a table here and we were not disappointed! What a charming, relaxing and attentive restaurant. We had an exceptionally delicious meal with great service and good wine. Thoroughly recommend

This place is wonderful!! Quirky little spot that has some of the best food I’ve eaten! The pork belly was so soft and moist 🤤. Also the service was outstanding they were left short staffed and the waitress was incredible attentive to everyone. Thank you for a wonderful evening and dinner.

Had a 3 course meal here tonight with my wife while on holiday on the Torbay area. It was probably the best meal we've had in many many years! We simply could not fault anything at all. The service was warm and friendly, the ambiance was lovely and the food was simply fantastic! We wished we lived closer, but next time we are in Devon we will make sure to book way in advance. We popped in on Sunday on the off-chance and managed to get one of the only slots they had available this week. There is just one chef in the kitchen and how he turns out such brilliant food is amazing. Thankyou for making our stay so memorable.

Enjoyed a fabulous dining experience - great food and absolutely amazing staff. Quite unique and so refreshingly different to the run of the mill restaurants you may visit. Wish we were here longer to visit again but we go home tomorrow 😭

A real hidden gem. Great service from front of house. Good choice of wines at low prices. Stand out dish for me the twice baked cheese soufflé light fluffy with a great depth of flavour. My main - slow cooked pork belly to me was lacking in flavour but was well cooked. The rump steak again lacked a depth of flavour but the pepper sauce was good. Sticky toffee pudding was another tour de force, not too sweet very flavoursome. All in all a lovely dining experience.

This place deserves all the great reviews that it has already received. We had a superb meal here. The food could not be faulted and it was some of the best cooking we have ever tasted. The two front of house ladies were both friendly and knowledgeable and were very professional. Worth a visit here if you are in the area or live a hundred miles away. You will not be disappointed. Enjoy.
