The Seagate Appledore North Devon

We have visited this charming pub for drinks and food many times in the past, and have always enjoyed our experience. However, tonight we were truly impressed with the exceptional service we received. A friendly staff member quickly found us a table, despite the limited availability due to having a toddler in a stroller. He promptly provided us with menus and offered a high chair for our little one, going out of his way to ensure our comfort. Originally, we had only planned to have a drink and look over the menu, but the outstanding service convinced us to stay for a meal. The staff member even went the extra mile by bringing pencils, a coloring book, and plastic spades for our child to play with, and was attentive in asking if there was anything else we needed. The bar staff were also warm and welcoming. Our daughter enjoyed the pitta pizza from the children's menu, which arrived at a perfect temperature and was immediately enjoyable for her. Our linguini and nachos were equally delicious. We appreciated not feeling rushed to vacate our table, especially with a toddler who eats slowly. The overall experience was delightful, and we highly recommend this pub for families. It is refreshing to see an establishment go above and beyond to accommodate families with children. Thank you for a wonderful dinner experience.

We booked a two-night bed and breakfast deal at this hotel because we love North Devon and it seemed like a good deal. Check-in was easy, and we were given a double room in the main building where they were happy for our dog to stay with us. The room was clean and tidy, with a lovely view over the estuary. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of options, including a piping hot cooked breakfast that fueled us for our long beach walks with our dog. We dined at the pub both nights and enjoyed a menu that offered a good mix of standard dishes and specials, along with great beer, cider, and wine. The best part of our experience was how dog-friendly they were - our dog could sit with us during meals, and he was so tired from running along the beach that he fell asleep under the table without causing any trouble. We would definitely stay here again, especially if they have a special offer for accommodation.

We have frequented this lovely pub for drinks and meals in the past and have always enjoyed it, but tonight we were truly impressed by the exceptional service. A kind gentleman working at the front of the house quickly found us a table (as we had a young child in a stroller and there were few tables available). He then provided us with menus and asked if we needed a high chair, going out of his way to ensure our comfort. Initially, we had only planned to have a drink and look at the menu, but with such excellent service, we couldn't resist ordering a meal as well. The gentleman even brought us coloring pencils, a coloring book, and plastic pads for our little girl, and made sure to ask if we needed anything else. The bar staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Our daughter enjoyed the Pitta pizza from the children's menu, which was served promptly upon arrival (unlike at other places where it often arrives piping hot, leading to tantrums as it cools). Our linguini and nachos were also delicious. We never felt rushed to finish our meal, which was especially refreshing with a young child who eats at a leisurely pace. The entire experience was delightful, and we would highly recommend this pub to other families. It is so heartwarming when establishments make an effort to accommodate families with children. We truly appreciate the attention to detail that was put into ensuring we had a pleasant dining experience.

We booked two nights at this restaurant.
