Having to make a reservation before coming here is a good sign! We enjoyed brunch at this restaurant yesterday. I've been told for years that eggs benedict can be a tricky dish to get right, but the ones we had here were served piping hot and tasted fantastic without any issues. Today, we stopped by after a long walk and indulged in a cream tea with a unique jam selection. The owners are knowledgeable about local ingredients and were very friendly and welcoming. We had a great experience and want to thank them for the delicious food and pleasant atmosphere. They are true superstars!
It had been a year since we last visited this restaurant, but we were not disappointed. We tried two different dishes from the lunch menu - potatoes with spring onions, blue cheese, and bacon - and they were superb. The hot chocolate was actually hot, which was fantastic.
From the warm welcome to the amazing quick service provided by the friendly lady who served us, the Welsh Rarebit was exceptionally delicious! We were delighted to have found this gem of a restaurant and we are grateful for the stellar service and hospitality. Thank you!
Dropped in on the way back to our air bnb for a quick lunch and both myself and partner were amazed at how great the food was here! We couldn’t help but order an extra scone for the road. The staff were really friendly and welcoming. Next time we are in the area the Old Forge will be a must on our to do list.
A welcome sanctuary on a warm and busy day in Chagford. The café is a small, charming space with a modern but classic tea room atmosphere. The cream tea was excellent, fresh homemade scones served warm with delicious whortleberry jam and plenty of refreshing proper leaf tea. We also purchased some of the home made cakes to takeaway which were delicious!! Would highly recommend if visiting the village.
