Menu
A comprehensive menu of Durrant House from Torridge featuring all 9 dishes and drinks can be found here on the menu.
The Olive Tree Restaurant, nestled within Durrant House Hotel, presents a culinary dichotomy that leaves diners divided. Marketed as a fine dining destination with an upscale a la carte menu, many patrons are disillusioned upon discovering a menu that resembles typical pub fare. While some dishes receive praise for flavor and presentation, others fall flat, plagued by inconsistencies, lack of cleanliness, and unremarkable service. However, a few diners commend the attentive staff and the quality of certain offerings, suggesting that experiences can vary widely. Ultimately, The Olive Tree's reality does not align with its ambitious portrayal, making it a spot worth considering with caution.

Our group of four made a reservation for Sunday Lunch at The Olive Tree Restaurant. The food was fantastic, filling, and served hot. A big thank you to the attentive restaurant staff who took great care of us. I found out that the beef came from a nearby butcher shop. To top it off, we were surprised with a complimentary dessert included in the special £12.50 price. We enjoyed our experience so much that we have already reserved a table for Christmas Day Lunch.

Do not visit this restaurant. If they have any sense, they would have read the negative reviews and avoided this place. Everything is prepared from frozen ingredients and lacks flavor. I regret dining here and would not recommend it.

We visited a restaurant that was advertised as a fine dining establishment with a decent menu selection. Despite having reservations, we were surprised to find that we were seated at one of the tables in the restaurant. The appetizers were beautifully presented and set high expectations for the rest of the meal. However, most of the main courses were just okay, with some issues like hair found in one dish and a overly hot salad in another. The cheese pizza, which was supposed to be a special treat for cheese lovers, turned out to be a frozen Chicago Town pizza. When we questioned the staff about this, the chef had already left and the acting deputy manager was rude and unhelpful. He offered to reimburse us for the pizza from his own pocket, which was a strange response to our inquiry. Overall, the experience was disappointing and we do not plan to return to this restaurant.
