Beautiful mushroom pie

I do love a good pie on a rainy day, and that’s what I got here. The mushroom and ale pie was hearty and rich with a gorgeous puff pastry on top. There was another vegan option (options seem to switch up now and then) and a good range of drinks. The staff were lovely and accommodating; the pub over all has a family-feel to it, and the low beams and rustic fireplace adds to the countryside pub atmosphere. The food is a bit pricey, but I would definitely go again!

Pros: Pie!!, Rustic atmosphere, Friendly service

Great food

Several vegan options, including mushroom and ale pie and tagine. I chose the pie, expecting a shop brought one, but it was homemade and amazing. Highly recommended.

Pros: Vegan options, Dog friendly, Nice outdoor area

Cons: Indoor eating area where dogs allowed quite small.

Nice, seasonally changing, vegan options.

On our visit there were 2 vegan options and 3 veggie options on the main menu which change regularly. On the main menu for vegans was a Moroccan tagine or mushroom and Guinness pie. For dessert, an apple pie or hot chocolate fudge cake with vegan ice cream. Had the mushroom pie and chocolate cake which were delicious. Ordered some bar snacks beforehand and the member of staff was really helpful in checking which crisps/nuts were vegan. Dog friendly in garden and bar area.

Pros: Menu changes regularly , Nice beer garden and seating area with heaters , Helpful staff

Cons: Not many inside tables for dogs

Friendly pub, generous portions

A classic British pub, done well. Probably my favourite pub in Sidmouth. Don't be put off by only 3 vegan main options - they're good and they change regularly.

Pros: Good hearty food, Friendly atmosphere, Dog-friendly
