The Phoenix

This pub boasts friendly staff, excellent food and a welcoming and cozy atmosphere – arguably the three most important attributes for a good foody pub to have. It’s claimed the number 1 spot on Trip Advisor and was recently nominated for the Devon Venus Small Business award, showing it’s got the credentials to match its sterling reputation. Pop in for a venison steak, or a freshly battered fish and chips with homemade tartar sauce.

The Highwayman’s Haunt

Located just outside Chudleigh, The Highwayman’s Haunt is a traditional Devon Inn with the atmosphere to match. Dating back to the 13th Century, stepping into this pub is like stepping back in time and it’s the perfect place for a romantic dinner – filled with little nooks to nestle into for a candle lit meal for two. With an award winning garden, open stone fire places and an excellent selection of food and ales, you’ll never want to leave. Come for a traditional Sunday roast after a walk, or for dinner to sample their “imaginative twist on British favourites.”

Harvey’s Coffee Shop

If you’re looking for a light lunch, cream tea, or a proper cup of coffee, look no further than Harvey’s. Situated in the centre of Chudleigh, this small, rustic cafe with it’s gorgeous secluded garden is perfect for those lazy summer afternoons.
