| I attend this pub twice a year (so a total of four weeks) as I have family that live here and over in Noss Mayo. The good points are great views, great locals and good food. The downside is Badger beer (be it well kept) I just do not like it. However they do sell a decent pint of Stowford Press cider! I prefer this to the Ship (too pretentious) and the Swan (dead) and don't even ask about the Yealm yacht club!!!!!! nickyboi45 - 6 Jul 2011 23:08 |
| My husband and I visited this beautiful area for the first time at the weekend. Not only did we get glorious weather, stunning scenery, and an exceptionally warm welcome from the pub staff; we blissfully enjoyed an afternoon on the beer terrace being impeccably attended to, overlooking the sparkling river Yealm with a chilled glass or two of my favourite wine. Top marks from us. SGreenham - 21 Apr 2009 12:45 |
| Fabulous location, excellent staff and in my humble opinion, an outstanding selection of posh pub grub. Have to strongly disagree with Eddieed below as I think it's by far the best service and the best fish pie in the area! I've spent the last few days in town and always ended up at the Dolphin for the friendly atmosphere. The Ship was far too impersonal and commercially minded. I'm looking forward to sailing through Newton again in the summer! Benson_Will - 20 Mar 2009 16:56 |
| Disappointing...Nice Location, good beer. Food was the issue, first time I have ever felt ripped off after eating in a pub. A dish described as a prawn platter (£7)turned out to be a Prawn Cocktail, made with frozen prawns which according to the Landlady is how prawns come...when you can see the sea from the pub!!! Main course, a chicken dish at £11 when served turned out to be a leg, at this price I expect a Breast. In our opinion you are much better off at the far superior Ship over on the other side of the Harbour, the beer and views are just as good if not better and the service and food are miles ahead.
