Only 80 yards from the Old Cider Bar but don't worry. Being Newton Abbot there's another pub on the way in case you get thirsty.

A very cosy little place indeed with a interesting back room down a couple a steps.
The pub feels like it should be on the middle of Dartmoor not in the unattrac tive town of Newton Abbot.
My pint of Dartmoor jail ale was lovely, If i had one critism it would be that they should have had the lovely looking fire going as it was cold inside.
8/10

Another good traditional pub featuring 3 cask ales including Bays Gold,7/10

Nowhere near as busy as the Locomotive a few doors up, but a slightly more pleasant experience. In addition to Cottage The Underdogs, the pub also had its own Triple S 8% ale. Whilst I didn't try this, the locals were adamant the beer quality was better there than in the 'Loco'. The pub also has a nice open fire. If I had one criticism, it was that the interior was a little dark and dingy.
|
They had at least three of their own beers available the other day. Good beer and a proper beer drinking atomosphere.
|
One of a number of watering holes in East Street, the Dartmouth Inn have a range of fine ales on offer, including their own brew. One of the better pubs in Newton Abbot.
|
Just started brewing its own beer which due to demand and the small brewlength isn't always available. However there is a range of good quality Real Ales. Perhaps not the most luxurious of pubs but still worth a visit.
