Had an enjoyable meal here in september 2011. Good well cooked steak and very nice fish of the day. Shame about the outdated decor but bar appeared extremely well stocked in liquers and shots... so we had to partake! Staff friendly.

Great pub one of the best i have ever been to.
Inside has a great atmosphere with a resturant overlooking the estuary.
The best part of it though is the view from the beer garden right on the sea wall.
I can think of few beer gardens with a view better! It was very relaxing watching the tide coming in over a few pints of thatchers gold which were gorgeous. The place dosen't rip you off as well like alot of tourist places do.
£5.80 for two pints these days is good.
10/10 we will be back!

Down in Appledore for a week and visited the Beaver Inn 4 times. The beer was good, always 3 pumps on and the cider was ecellent with at least 2 local ones on. The bar was well staffed and the staff were helpful and knowledgeable or would find out if they did not know. Both locals and tourists were using the bar. There is regular music too. The atmosphere was friendly. Ate in the restaurant on the last evening, the fish was fresh and succulent. It was £27 for two main courses and a shared pudding - a reasonable price for a great meal. The riverside location and the big patio area to sit out on as the sun set - well just brilliant.

The Beaver is in a great location with a sunny garden giving lovely water views. It deserves better than the very ordinary, overpriced food, tatty dated decor and dour, unfriendly staff who work there.

The staff really are astonishingly rude. Unable to believe that anyone so miserable and unwelcoming would work in the hospitality industry, I asked a stony-faced barman why all the staff were so miserable, he replied that the place was full of tourists.

I wouldn't go back to the Beaver and would recommend tourists spend their money elsewhere. These people don't deserve your hard earned cash - and what's more they won't even smile whilst they take it from you.

Visited the Beaver recently for a meal. Having eaten here several times previously we have always been happy with the food, beer and service. It seems though things have taken a turn for the worse. The service was very slow and the staff seemed uninterested in providing anything resembling an adequate service. When we looked around we were obviously not the only guests who were experiencing a long wait. Only one table had food on it the remaining seven had guests waiting patiently. It also has to be noted that the food portions have been drastically reduced, My main course was a very small lamb shank that could only be described as a starter meal. The sticky toffee pudding tasted great but was again woefully small. Admittedly almost all the tables were occupied and it was during the Easter holidays. Was there a problem with the chef? who knows, nobody explained. We did not complain, but won't be returning for a long time. Overall poor value at premium pub prices.
