Pub food meets fine dining..... clearly the chef has been watching too many episodes of master chef. Small portions and over seasoned food! It a shame because the inside of the pub is very nice with a good atmosphere and the staff are friendly.

We went here for a few days of walking, horse riding and so on, but the pub was by far and a way one of the best parts of the long weekend. Arriving friday afternoon, dropped the bags in the room (which was comfortable, well equiped with an en-suite of equal standards!) and down to the bar to sample the... More

My partner and I visited the Royal Oak Inn for a meal with friends. We had a friendly welcome from the bar staff. The table which was pre-booked, was in a spacious room behind the bar. I remember it as originally a skittles/function room. However, it has now been done out very smartly as a restaurant, though in keeping with... More

Unfortunately, only stayed one night and was not able to try the restaurant but if the breakfast was anything to go by, we missed a treat! Gorgeous fresh fruit salad with yoghurt and honey to start, followed by a delicious cooked breakfast which was not at all greasy. Room was spacious and immaculately clean, as was the bathroom. All toiletries... More

Visited 31st July 2012, ordered food waited 40 minutes for it to arrive. Pasta cold, little taste, tomatoes huge ones cut into quarters, uncooked, menu stated cherry tomatoes. Garlic bread almost cold and very 'soggy'. Steak quarter inch thick, three inch diameter (two pieces), quite bland. Chip tasted and looked as if they had been re-heated. Sauce with steak, (mushroom)... More

The food was cooked to perfection with a good choice particularly at breakfast. Rooms were nice and clean and enough choice of drinks to keep you in the bar. Overall a nice trip in a nice quiet village.

Located on the southern edge of Dartmoor, South Brent is ideal for walks to Avon Dam or to the Three Barrows. Our room was spacious, very clean with a memory-foam mattress so we had a comfortable night's sleep. Thick curtains kept the light out in the morning. The bathroom was also clean and spacious with plenty of free toiletries provided.... More

We stayed at a gorgeous self catering place in Aish and this pub was recommended by them for food and so on Friday 27th April, having had a wonderful day out for my birthday and looking for somewhere nice to have a meal to round off the day, we called in here. The decor was good, as was the atmosphere... More
