More restaurant than pub with lots of tables set aside for dining and only some easy chairs near the bar and bar stools specifically for drinkers. Also a big garden out back.
Food was nice and reasonably priced, ale and wine were good. Two ales on tap - Doom Bar and Jail Ale. Latter was £3.40 a pint and in good nick.
Sister place of the Glassblowing House on the Barbican, the Gary Rhodes owned place where the Plymouth Dome once was, plus the Queen's Arms in Tamerton.
Staff friendly; busy when we visited on a Wednesday evening.
Shop opposite has a great selection of local beer too.

This place is now called The Pickwick.

Stayed in the area recently but never went it - never got round to it unfortunatley. It seems obvious from the posts below that this place had some "issues" in the past, but it seems to be under new management now so I wouldn't want the past to cloud anyones view.

Is in a handy position to catch passing trade on it's way to/from Bigbury-on-sea, so good liuck to them.

So glad I didn't live near this pub - I would probably have tried it.
"On January 9th, 2009 at Torbay Magistrates, Mr Paul Clement, of the Old Chapel Inn, St Anne�s Chapel, Bigbury, pleaded guilty to seven charges of failing to ensure his premises are kept clean under Food Hygiene (England) Regulations 2006.".

"Following a routine inspection of the pub on April 22nd last year, Environmental Health Officers found the kitchens to be dirty throughout and without any adequate facilities for hygienic hand washing or drying. Rotting foodstuff was found on walls, floors, worktops and in the rear courtyard and unwashed cooking utensils were piled up in sinks.

Poor food safety practices were in operation and items such as duck, cheese and salmon were often left out for several days at a time. Cigarette butts were found to be clogging up sinks and there was no hot running water in the kitchens. "

One can only hope Mr Clement never has anything to do with the food and drink trade again.
