By far my favourite place to eat at the moment. Great service - friendly, genuine, and willing to a accommodate (like when my 3 year old asks for mash when it's not on the menu that day). Fantastic food; homemade fare and good portions. stuff like crispy chips, proper pies, quality ham, homemade sausages, real custard - and plenty of... More

It looked like any small cafe but we dropped in for lunch and were very surprised by the range of meals and snacks on offer at very reasonable prices. Much of the fare was local or home baked; very carefully chosen. My husband enjoyed his fresh crab sandwich and I the delicious home made lentil soup. I could not resist... More

We recently went to the Manor House Cafe while on holiday in the area. Both my wife and I had Chicken and Leek Pie served with Chicken Gravy and vegetables. I have to say the Chicken & Leek pie was obviously freshly made and was one of the tastiest I have eaten. The chicken gravy had also been made the... More

Great staff, took time to talk to us. All food fresh and local when possible. Very nice toasted sandwiches. And the best in not just Devon but the hole of the West Country. Nice to eat lunch somewhere the staff are all so friendly and happy to see both regulars and tourists. Definitely worth a visit.

Dropped in for a snack on a visit to ilfacombe. Very tasty sausage sandwich and delicious fresh chips. My wife had the creme tea with delicious home made scones and locally sourced cream. Thought the owner was very friendly and welcoming and would certainly recommend. Only lost one mark because my wife originally wanted a savoury tea but they had... More

Popped in for a spot of lunch to be told there were some freshly baked pasties on the go. Sometimes, especially with shop bought pasties they really repeat on you for the afternoon but I thought I'd give it a go. It was bloody lovely! Good amount of filling, pastry not stodgy and best of all no repeating all day!... More
