Food Scene

There are 2 bars and a restaurant with lovely river views. The Sports Bar (on the left as you go in) is our favourite because of its relaxed atmosphere. The food is good in both bars and in the restaurant.

Our favourite restaurant, due to its great atmosphere and locally sourced food. Staff are welcoming and friendly and a meal there won't break the bank. Great for groups or if you just want a cosy meal for two!

THE go-to place in Dartmouth for breakfast! Fantastic atmosphere, unique surroundings and delicious breakfasts. Also serve lunch and the space can be reserved for private functions. Will only accept reservations for groups of 10+ so get there early or be prepared to queue at busy times! But it is SO worth it! :-)
