| A welcome break in a circular walk from Moretonhampstead via Mardon down. The pub is very food orientated and geared towards the tourist hotspot that is Fingle bridge. Nice enough inside with the oak beams and fireplaces but nothing special in terms of architecture and ambience (although I think it could be with a bit more attention to clutter/memorabillia /lighting etc. And lose the carpets!!). Several local ales on offer. I opted for my first ever Dartmoor best bitter. This surprised as, even though a full 1% or more less gravity than the famed Jail Ale, it was still full of flavour. The nicest pint I had in my short stay in Devon, not that any are ever bad!! tarkatherotter - 9 Aug 2015 13:35 |
| Who would have thought there is a pub at the end of this seemingly narrow road to nowhere? I was here for the walking and a stupendous walk it was too. We parked here early and it was empty, did the walk and people were nearly fighting for a space. And the pub? Fresh Scones... three real ales.... My gun dog was superb (this was the ale). Fantastic.

| Now known as The Fingle Bridge Inn. Superb setting and delightful to walk to and sit outside in Saturday's sun but I wouldn't bother visiting if it was raining or I was driving as the pub lacks any architectural character, the barmaid was quite sullen (although probably as a result of the constant influx of customers) and the food looked nothing special. Teignworthy's Reel Ale at £3.20 and St Austell's Tribute were the cask ales with Thatchers Gold as the cider. paul_d102 - 23 Jul 2013 20:14 |
| Great location imagine it must be busy at peak times though. 10/10 montie49 - 4 Feb 2012 11:49 |
| Great location, friendly staff and lunch food reasonable for the price. Plently of parking space which is a real plus as parking space is an issue for many of the pubs in the area. Wish we'd discovered it sooner. fetchman - 19 Sep 2009 12:13 |
