The Cridford Inn

Winter roasts are over sadly, but the Cridford Inn in Trusham messaged us re today being the start if their summer BBG season,so we went! And lo, the rain had stopped and the sun was shining! And we emerged from the usual tangle of Devon Roads back at the Cridford Inn! Friendly welcome, as usual, abd and we ordered our BBQ at the bar,which was cooked to order outside. Fab veg, rare proper fluffy Yorkshire puddings, and the meat in a stunning BBQ sauce. Drink cool refreshing p Pimms while waiting for everything to cook... Chrissy's pork choice was a little on the tough side, but my chicken was perfectly cooked by Friendly Chef. He also made our stunning Tiramisu dessert himself! Pretty waitress was helpful, and the Manager came by and checked all was well. A fun lunch Hope to return here again soon.. Mic and Chissy. Exeter

Lovely sunday lunch, we've visited two weeks in a row, and both times have been superb. Lovely old pub, great food and a nice selection of ales n cider. Friendly staff and prompt service. We had roast beef, roast pork, roast cauliflower, and a mexican bean burger. Everyone enjoyed their meal and emptied their plate...

Stayed here for two nights. On arrival we were informed that there would be a £10 charge per dog per night which added an extra £40 onto our stay. This was not explained on *********** where I booked the hotel through. When we arrived there was a limited choice of food and the food was expensive. Breakfast lovely and all amenities in the room and reasonably priced beer in the bar downstairs. The girl behind the bar very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. The work didn’t work in the rooms which was disappointing as needed to contact family members who were caring for our animals at the time and there is no signal either. We wouldn’t stay here again.

We had lunch today at the Cridfords Inn as a family group of 6. The service was warm, friendly and genuinely helpful. Great choice of dishes all freshly prepared. The food was beautifully presented and incredibly tasty. It's lovely to come to such a peaceful location and be able to eat great food in such an ancient and interesting building.

An excellent Devon pub with the normal dodgy access (narrow lanes) you would expect but good sized car park. Friendly greeting on arrival and shown to table. Drinks were excellent and well priced though a little slow in coming as only one person on the bar who was also doing coffee. The pub was busy and our food arrived promptly. It was of a good standard though perhaps a little expensive for what you received. The vegan option was delicious but small and no attempt was made to provide a vegan cauliflower cheese or alternative given the roasts came with such. The staff were great but a little stressed as it was busy. We were asked to leave our table by the landlady after we had requested the bill but whilst we hadn’t finished our drinks in a slightly abrupt manner which whilst not being terribly professional was I guess as a result of the pub being busy. Whilst it’s terribly difficult to estimate the staff required they should of had more to avoid the stress. If you have a limited time on a table it should also be made clear at the time of booking. We weren’t a cheap table. Nearly £100 for two! We did feel a little rushed from our table which is a shame as overall it’s a great pub and we would still recommend it.

Had another wonderful weekend at the Cridford Inn. Four of us stayed in The Nest which was clean and comfortable - they put an extra bed in for us as we were a group of friends, which worked well and was only £10 extra per night. Breakfast was great and well worth paying for, and our evening meals were wonderful. The Venison and Pigeon were particular highlights but the cheaper options such as the Pork and Fish and Chips were very good too. A lovely bar and restaurant to come back to, with the fires roaring, after a long day walking on Dartmoor or on the Southwest Coast Path. Thank you Ness and team. See you next year!
