Popped in for a very brief visit whilst on holiday last week - just the one pint and no food.

The pub is not one you'd stumble across by accident being situated down one of the tiny narrow streets that characterise Turnchapel. But it is certainly worth searching out.

As previously mentioned the beer selection is very good and the food looked tasty as well. The whole atmosphere is of a friendly locals pub, but as strangers my wife and I were made to feel very welcome. Although we didn't see any children in the pub (it was 8pm) we were told that the pub is family friendly.

There is a garden out the back with some amusing features.

Would definitely go back for longer when next in the area.

The best beer and the best pub in Plymouth bar none - and it is in a really pleasant part of South East harbour area, Turnchapel Village. There is another pub nearby - it's not bad either. But this one sells so much good beer and serves gorgeous simple food (yes to the Fish Pie). The great thing is - no boorish prats with tracksuits, something that really blights a lot of this quality city and it's pubs. Just thoughtfully spoken locals with a lust for life.

Took the ferry as recommended to Mountbatten (runs till 11pm in the summer) where a 20 year old warned us this pub was 'full of crusties'. I guess we're crusties at heart-- 10 points from us. Landlord gave us tasters of the selection like a Napa sommelier. Fantastic beer, friendly cats in an adorable garden, and a shockingly good fish pie. Would be a first-class stop on the South-West Coast Path, for any walkers out there.

Superb pub, it may be tucked away but if you ever find yourself in this neck of the woods then give it a bash you wont go far wrong. The food is quite simply of gourmet standard, the landlord is a gent and understands what the punters want. Theres a cute little beer patio, the decor is dark and cosy. Obviously a locals pub that welcomes it passing through custom with open arms.

Could not agree more. A well hidden gem.
