PizzaExpress - Plymouth - The Barbican
Unit 2, The Barbican Leisure Center, Plymouth, PL4 0LG [Map]
Pizza Express remains a hugely popular bedrock of casual eating. Its popularity is testimony to the fact that across the country, they have restaurants where you will always be guaranteed a good nosh, with children's tastes being well catered for.
Pizza Express has gone even more Roman, and following the success of that particular example of listening to their public have introduced Romana pizzas, including the scorching Etna and the hearty Siciliana.
These pizzas are now thinner, bigger and crispier, and if that sounds like a marketing line, it is. However, unlike many such lines, this one is true, and their quality is always consistent, though cleverly they have still managed to retain a homemade feel to their pizzas.
As an alternative to pizza, try their pollo pesto - cavatappi pasta with torn chicken breast, mushrooms, red onions and mozzarella in a creamy gruyere, parmesan and pesto sauce and finished with grana padano - or the niçoise salad with mixed leaves, yellowfin tuna, free range egg, green beans, potatoes and tomatoes with olives, anchovies, capers and house dressing.
Many of the big chains have come a long way, and Pizza Express is certainly amongst them. One of the first to be quoted on the Stock Exchange - in 1993 - Pizza Express is not a franchise operation and retains tight control through its own staff.
Their wine list - though short - contains some surprisingly good offerings, especially their intense Australian Chardonnay, and a big, full-bodied Merlot from Cusumano, Sicilia.

Bovey Castle
North Bovey, Dartmoor National Park, Moretonhampstead, TQ13 8RE [Map]
An elegant Victorian hotel with splendid sweeping views over Dartmoor, the restaurant is a beautiful Art Deco syle ballroom and the food is locally sourced for the traditional cuisine served. A good wine list with some interesting bins lurking for those who are prepared to take their time.
Their Clubhouse is open from 11am for light lunches through to 5pm and the Restaurant then takes over the reins at 7pm for dinner. Please note however, that because the hotel is very resident focused, all lunch and dinner reservations must call and book in advance of the date in mind.

The Ostrich Inn
Newland, Forest of Dean, nr Coleford, GL16 8NP [Map]
The Ostrich Inn prides itself on offering the best of local food in a warm welcoming atmosphere. The quality of the food and the menu range has earned good reviews from the food critics and has lead to the Ostrich Inn being listed in all the leading Pub guides. With wooden beams and a welcoming log fire in the large lounge bar throughout the winter, visitors can enjoy a relaxed and friendly setting as a backdrop to the exceptional food.
Diners can be served in either the small intimate restaurant, the larger lounge bar, or weather permitting, they can enjoy their meal alfresco in the rear or front gardens. Prices and the menu offered are the same wherever the food is served. All their dishes are freshly prepared and cooked on the premises, and, in addition to the main menu, there are comprehensive specials and sweets boards which change regularly.

Restaurant at The Belfry Country Hotel
Yarcombe, nr Honiton, EX14 9BD [Map]
The Belfry, a privately owned and run Devon hotel, is renowned for its adaptability and excels when it comes to providing custom built parties for, say, family groups who want to take over the hotel. Owners Paul and Katie Blake make the ideal pair for running a country house hotel of this quality and also open the restaurant to non-residents from Wednesday to Saturday.
Starters feature baked goat's cheese with a hazelnut crust, served with the red onion marmalade made in house, homemade fishcakes and for those who love the old staples, an omelette Arnold Bennett.
Main courses have character and can include pan-fried organic Orkney salmon served with lime butter and fresh herbs, the local lamb, pot roasted with red onions, redcurrants and red wine, or some of the local seabass, filleted, seared and roasted with fresh rosemary and finished with cream.
Puddings are designed to challenge and range from panettone bread and butter pudding, through chocolate and orange spotted dick topped with clotted cream, to individual steamed puddings with golden syrup and clotted cream. Fortunately large areas of attractive moorland in the form of the Blackdown Hills are to hand for those wishing to work out after such indulgence.
