The Trout and Tipple, Tavistock
Wouldn't recommend eating here.
The food was indifferent and expensive. We were directed to our table, were not given a menu and were not advised that food should be ordered at the bar. If we hadn't asked we could still be there , waiting to be served.... In an area that has several good food pubs this one stands out as one to avoid, as there are plenty of others with equally acceptable real ales, better service and better nosh!

A lovely country pub with a good selection of well kept real ales and friendly and welcoming bar staff. Recently (2007)awarded the Marston's best food pub of the year. The menu is inventive and in keeping with modern trends, but still broad enough to satisfy a hungry walker and a discerning dinner.

This pub has now reopened after a four month closure under completely new management.
It has been thoroughly cleaned and redecorated and the pretty garden has again been returned to grass and flower beds with a covered area to one side for smokers.
We ate there on the day it opened and had an excellent freshly cooked Sunday lunch and friends who have eaten there since have been pleased with their meals.
Steve and Rachael are welcoming and staffing levels ensure good service.
At the moment there is a fairly limited range of ales, but it is early days and Steve has shown himself to be open to requests for old favourites and willing to extend his range of beers
If you have been disappointed in the past, try the pub again. I'm sure you will be pleased you did!
