Newton Abbot Restaurant Guide

Chasers, The

I sometimes think that the locating of restaurants in almost any country is rather like picking mushrooms. You wander round a likely area picking the obvious ones, the big ones first of course, decide you need some more and start looking for the more obscured variety, with an occasional real winner lurking in a well camouflaged corner.

The Elizabethan Inn, which is a freehouse, is a thoroughly traditional country pub, and all the better for that.

Restaurant at The Ilsington Country Hotel

With splendid views over the Dartmoor National Park to Haytor, Ilsington offers a very warm welcome to its guests.

Rock Inn, The

A delightful old coaching inn, going back to the 18th century, which takes its food seriously whilst still managing to retain its position as the 'local'. Whilst the food may be described as classic there is nothing pedestrian about the finished product, using local ingredients in particular.
