You want to visit - You have this in

A 17th century former coaching house on the old Plymouth - Exeter road. The flagstone bar is complemented by a spacious dining room, and the florally bedecked patio is especially popular during fine weather. There is a large function room available upstairs. A specials board supplements an extensive menu and booking is advisable at weekends. A popular quiz is held monthly on the second Sunday. Dogs on leads are welcome in the bar area. Bed and breakfast accommodation is also available.

The pub is due to undergo some refurbishment and it has been reported that previous tenants, Dan and Beth, will be back at the helm soon.
