The Mitre Inn
Pub Witheridge

Accommodating, friendly and welcoming staff. Dealt with 9 people and a dog, refilled our waterbottles, found us blankets when we were cold. Two gorgeous golden retrievers to stroke on your way to the loo! Incredible food, so unbelievably tasty. Great prices and great options for all (including an amazing stuffed aubergine for vegetarians.) But overall the best thing was the service and smiles from all staff. Thank you! From the mottley crew with the big fluff ball dog!

Very friendly reception, and very good food. Hot and tasty. Plenty of room in restaurant on Friday evening in June.

Excellent evening meal

Good food and welcome Stayed not far from the Mitre for a week and visited 3 times for lunch across that time. A super welcome from Andy and Barbara, who made us all feel very welcome.

We had a variety of Panini’s, all were excellent.

Made a fuss of our 8 month old, too.

highly recommended. If we’re back in the area at any point, i wouldn’t hesitate to visit again.

All the best.

Steve, Ruth and little legs.

Mitre inn What a jem of a place, made to feel so welcome and food was fantastic, cheers
Would definitely recommend

Great food Great restaurant with wide range on the menu. Thursday was curry night but went for the belly pork which was delicious. A few pints of Exmoor Gold also helped. Very friendly staff and great service. Perfect after a hard day walking, cycling or just touring Mid Devon.

Amazing food the best steak I have ever eaten! We ate as a family last night and tonight me and my partner went back and it was incredible! Beautiful pub and wonderful people and service 🙂

Absolutely Amazing food, we didn’t even realise this lovely place was just on our doorstep. Would 100% recommend to anyone in the the Tiverton are.

Great food We recently stayed nearby and ate here as well as ordering takeaway. Food was lovely and very hospitable hosts.

Great service and friendly. Just moved to the area and we're so pleased to have a dog friendly pub a short walk away

Great curry night with Goat on the menu. Bit chilly outside but we'll worth it.

Andy and Barbara have reopened to serve customers at outside tables. Unfortunately there is no garden but the pavement is wide and it is pleasant to be able to chat to passers-by. Beer good and made welcome. Looking forward to being able to go there for a meal in a few weeks time.

Great Thursday curry night We enjoyed a range of vegetarian and meat takeaway curries at The Mitre Inn.
Really recommend the delicious home cooked food here.

Great takeaway curry. Thanks.

The room war clean and the beds are comfortable.The staff was also very friendly and the food was good.We certainly enjoyed our short break there.

Really comfortable room, excellent food, lovely people!.

Excellent roast dinner and service. Highly recommended.

Really appreciate you taking us in at the last minute. Needed a room at the last hour minute. Food was great too. You must try them.

Lovely meal and surroundings.

Delicious meal We had a meal here whilst staying at the nearby Newhouse Farm Cottages. Suitable Covid precautions had been put in place – a bell to ring when you arrived so you could be met at the door, hand sanitiser, only certain tables being used… …As we had such a good experience, we ordered take-out lasagne the following evening which was also very nice.

Superb Really comfortable room, excellent food, lovely people!

Lovely place, nice to get away to a quiet rural area. Everything was nice, especially Rachel.
Nothing, all was good

Tuesday curry We are staying nearby and noticed the Mitre were offering two takeaway curries for £20.
I had the Korma and the wife had the vegetable curry.
Very nice with an onion bargee and fresh naan bread.

Exceptional Excellent breakfast good choice

Lovely place and we will be going back The breakfast was spot on well cooked and lovely cup of tea along with great service what more could you ask for great value for money the beer was well looked after and the prices were very good for the area
The only thing we didn’t like was leaving because the place was just lovely and the local people chatted away like we have known them for years

Dinner Booked a table for 3 with my dad and his gf, they are both vegetarian and were pleasantly surprised by the wide range of foods available. I had the chicken Kiev with salad and sweet potato wedges followed by the most amazing sticky toffee pudding and ice cream.
Lovely pub, great food and beer.

Great food and lovely staff Wasn’t planning to stop at the pub but the staff and atmosphere were so great we stopped for food. Fantastic beef and red wine pie ( homemade) best ever tasted, all our food was fantastic and made on site. Staff were very welcoming and friendly, pub had a great atmosphere too. A great find.

One night here on the two moors way Wir sind nur eine Nacht hier gewesen. Die Räume waren sauber und ordentlich, die Betten bequem.
Der Raum zum Essen war ok und sauber, aber nichts besonderes.
Das Essen selber war solides Pub-Essen, wie wir es gewohnt waren, das Personal höflich und bedacht, die Corona Regeln einzuhalten.
Frühstück war reichhaltig.

The owners of this lovely inn were very accommodating, letting us stay last minute (30 mins notice!) and staying up for us, when other places had turned us away on our Lands end to John O’Groats cycle. Amazing!

Lovely quaint place with lots of quirky artifacts , food great too. Great host's

The food here is excellent!The staff are extremely polite and friendly.Highly recommended!

A great welcome

A very fine public house, enjoyed my lunch immensely and the chap on the bar was very friendly and informative.Definitely worth a visit

Nice atmosphere despite the current difficult situation. The service and the food were very good, the staff were friendly and careful.

Quality of local ingredients and taste was very impressive. We had a pie and chips takeaway July 2020. Delicious, filling and all on time. Definately recommend

Very tasty food in the middle of a long days hike. Would happily recommend the burgers to anyone.

Beautiful local pub!

Good pub grub!

Good food – great real ale

Warm welcome in these trying times

Fantastic food. Great wine list and friendly service

A really quaint and lovely pub. Spotlessly clean with very friendly and helpful staff. Thankyou to the owners for such a lovely and enjoyable break.

La gentilezza e la disponibilità signora a mezzanotte ci ha preparato 2 sandwiches. La struttura e l accoglienza che ci hanno riservato 2 magnifici Golden retriver..

Lovely meal in cosy bar, so many great vegan options for main and puds, really impressed. Our dogs were spoilt by the staff too!

Excellent food and a well kept local ale. Cosy in the winter with a fire running and relaxed in the summer with a cold cider!

Good food and service

Dined at The Mitre from time to time. Always been impressed with the food.

Comfy historic inn.

Staff are so friendly and lovely really make u feel welcome and at home. Couldn't ask for a better stay

Great atmosphere… Excellent staff and of course good food

Will come back good food good ales comfortable bed

Great food , friendly staff

Very friendly staff and great service and great food

Sehr großes Zimmer, bestes englisches Frühstück, sehr hilfreiches und zuvorkommendes Personal, ein "Pub" wie er im Buche steht!.

Nice freindly pub with good range ales and food including GF.

Excellent Sundy roast with 8 veg plus roast potatoes.

Great place, great staff!Highly recommended!After a long day this place was a real gem of a find.

Had a jacket spud with cheese and beans… top drawer good price, welcoming and then went back 2 days later and had a curry… make sure you check the opening hrs on their website…👍

Fantastic dinner, great food and fantastic service again We have become regular family and friends visitors to the Mitre.
The menu food and service is invariably good.
Excellent menu options.
I had sirloin steak and it was excellent.
Well done Team Mitre.

Would recommend Popped in for dinner as we were staying away for a weekend break nearby. Couldn’t fault, greeted straight away, felt very welcome and was invited to look around the snug area. Choose to eat in the bar area but also has nice dining area. Can’t fault the food, except after large portions, I couldn’t fit in pudding! The kids did though! Enjoyable food and a good evening, thank you.

A Swift Pint Popped in for quick pint whilst waiting for the pizza order to be cooked in the mobile
wood fire oven van in the square.
An amazing quirky local with a fine selection of ale etc

A good all-rounder This is largely a family-run pub and you get a great welcome here from the landlord and all the staff. Even our little dog was welcomed with open arms. There was a good selection of home-cooked foods, all with an authentic style that had been carefully researched. We went with our instincts and enjoyed the meals we were brought. There is a great selection of beers and cheeses too. It wasn’t particularly cheap, but is definitely cheerful.

Very good landlord and landlady, well kept cellar, food very good also. If you want a nice lunch time meal and chat go early as the pub closes at 2 30 in the week in the winter, I don't know about the weekend, will definitely visit again.

Best sleep I've had in a hotel for a long time. Staff are all nice & friendly & food top notch too!

Very good food and nice friendly staff

Lovely staff. Really helpful. Food very tasty. Rooms lovely with comfy beds. Definitely worth a visit.

Le petit déjeuner et les desserts, la convivialité..

Cosy, quirky and friendly. Went in for dinner with our kids and everyone was very happy with their food. Really nice to have excellent choices for children and vegetarians and the only issue I had with the food was that the dessert menu was a list of my absolute favourite puddings, and I was plunged into pudding turmoil argh!Brilliant place. You won't be disappointed.

Stunning hidden treasure just stop and enjoy this unique pub

The food is so good here, it ought to have a Michelin star. I’ve just eaten the Chateaubriand and it was perfect! Also great service. Highly recommended 🙂

Good ‘today’s special’, a very nice Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand!The beer is bit pricy.

Very friendly staff, speedy service, great choice of food and all tasty too.

Lovely friendly inn

Loved this place. Great staff, lovely atmosphere, amazing food!

Excellent food and great atmosphere.

Great local.

Love this place, real friendly homely type pub, amazing real ales and a good selection of spirits, home cooked food. Recommend the pie with roast potatoes and a range of 4-5 vegetables.

Lovely food and helpful staff.We enjoyed our family night out.

Lovely little pub right in the Square. Friendly staff and great food.

Old village pub with rooms. Comfortable and friendly, very good breakfast but didn't try the evening menu. Recommended.

Great food and drink, lovely atmosphere.

Nice pub with excellent food

Lovely food and great atmosphere

Excellent food, staff lovely and very efficient, we'll be back

Very good roast lunch

Zeer vriendelijk, leuke dingen in de pub, barman was super behulpzaam, lekker locaal bier.

Very Friendly Pub! We found this pub by accident.

We both had steak pie, chips and peas. It was delicious, the best pie we had ever had! The landlord was so friendly and great fun. If we end up moving to the area, we have found a wonderful local!

Thank you very much

Sunday lunch A lovely traditional pub with good quality tasty food. No frou frou just good old fashioned great customer service and a welcome tit bit for the dog. A very pleasant visit and hope to go back soon.

Superb Sunday Lunch Great traditional style English pub, fun and friendly atmosphere, great landlord and delicious food! definite winner.

Lovely in summer and at Christmas Lovely place to eat and drink and meet with friends. Very friendly owners. So cosy at Christmas with a lovely open fire. Wonderful foi6d all year round. Certainly worth a visit

Great sausages ! Stayed locally recently and ate here twice. Lovely cosy little pub with friendly staff and lovely food. Can highly recommend the Somerset pork and garlic sausages and the brioche bread and butter pudding.

Everything you want from a Great British pub meal Wow. Lovely menu of local produce put into traditional pub dishes. We had the Creedy Carver chicken Kiev and the steak pie. Both excellent, with perfect chips. Delicious chocolate brownie and banana pancake desserts, lovely wine at a reasonable price. Friendly staff and lovely ambience.

House hunting. Used the mitre inn as a stop over whilst viewing the area…wonderful.
Very friendly hosts …Very friendly bar maid.
Fantastic evening meal and a few beers in the bar.
Great room which was very comfortable.
Brilliant breakfast choice…
All in all one of the nicest , cleanest, friendliest, hassle free places I’ve stayed at.
Well done.
Will definitely be back .

GOOD PUB Very good
Large village Public House
Ocassional music
Food and Drink
A good place to go for a meal or a quiet drink.

Good food We enjoyed a lovely family meal here. Serving staff were friendly and helpful. One of our party didn’t get the meal he ordered, but apart from that it was a good expierience.

first pub visit for my kids we were visiting Devon and i wanted my kids to have a real pub food experience. The Mitre Inn did not disapoint. The food and service was great, even if we came in just before kitchen closing time.

A lovely first visit We had lunch here today and came away promising ourselves that we would return! Tripadvisor came up trumps, recommending it as somewhere not too far from home, and we loved everything about The Mitre and its fantastic food. Plenty of choice – and those who had it said the hake was “to die for” – and sensibly sized portions. My only complaint was that the time of year was wrong for me to spend time in the delightful “snug” just off the bar…… roll on winter for that! Thank you all concerned for a memorable meal – and lashings of ginger beer!

A celebration meal to remember We took twelve close friends for a special celebration as this is one of our favourite places to eat. Every meal was cooked to perfection (I don’t know how Barbara does it for so many) and served in the lovely dining room. The staff who served us worked very hard and we were not hurried. A lot of thought goes into the dishes which offer a good choice and fish/vegetarian lovers are well catered for too. This is much more than pub grub.u

Good food in a lovely setting great landlord with excellent staff

Agree with Tommy Costar – lovely warmth from this pub both physically and personally. Lots of character here. Excellent food washed down with Exmoor's divine XPA. What else is there to say ??

Delicious Sunday roast meal, very friendly+attentive staff, nothing too much bother. Highly recommended. Certainly visit again.

Lovely pub, lovely staff, great food. Booked a large group 30 + kids and adults for Sunday dinner time, could not fault them everything was perfect.

Nice and friendly

Great food . Roast pots to die for

Cosy place..with awesome back room.. like an old aunts living room

Only popped in for a drink, well kept and pleasantly decorated. Food menu looked good although didn't eat so can't comment on the quality. Would visit again

Great atmosphere and excellent food.

Very friendly and good food

Lovely pub. Great high quality food. Not over priced. Very welcoming to us & our two small children. We really enjoyed our meal. Thank you

Very friendly staff, great food & drink and an open fire , could of stayed there all day.

pleasant restaurant. Good food

Lush very nice, friendly village pub

Very hospitable and dog friendly. Excellent pint of Exmoor Stag. Thoroughly recommended.

Nice little pub allows the four Leggers good pint of stowford and an open fire will go back

Lovely fresh fish My brother and I took our very elderly Mother who lives in Witheridge out to lunch and we had lovely fresh sole which was much enjoyed. Our waitress was lovely.

Good drinks stop We stopped for a drink whilst walking recently. Good outdoor tables with sun umbrellas in addition to plentiful indoor seating seating.

Overnight stay Only stayed 1 night but was impressed by the friendly barman Ryan who made us welcome. We ate elsewhere but hopefully will come back to dine here. Breakfast was good in a lovely decorated dining room

Big family group Another visit to the Mitre for us, another great experience. They accommodated our family group of 12 perfectly. Great food, speedy and friendly service, lovely atmosphere with the log fire and dog friendly. What more could you want from a village pub? 🙂

Very good Visited with a large group for lunch. Food and service was excellent! Have been a few times, always welcoming 🙂

Fantastic Publicans Dined here twice and the food was very good , and I would highly recommend , the publicans are very personable which is an added attraction , I would advise people to book as this hotel is well patronised for the above reasons

Excellent Xmas Lunch We booked a 3 course Xmas lunch at the Mitre Inn based on information in a local Xmas booklet, and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent, really tasty and generous portions – and were made to feel very welcomed too. We will definitely be going back again.

Good food Had a meal in Mitre in November with my wife for my birthday food was very good and plentiful, staff very friendly and the beer was very good.
If you’re passing through Witheridge I would recommend this pub, it’s worth a try.

A great meal and service We enjoy nice food with good service. At the Mitre we were very happy as we felt we had very nice food with great service. The food was well cooked with service at a good speed. Plenty of time to enjoy it without being rushed but also without any delay. We also got good advice on what was really good on the menu. We were only in the area for one night but hoping to return for longer next summer we will definitely return there.

Family Meal Food was great generous portions, I had a special of cod and chips and mushy peas I didn’t enjoy the wine but that is just personal choice

Vegan food What a fantastic find! Very hard to get a three course meal anywhere and rarely get pudding! Had a fantastic vegan menu and lovely home cooked meal! Would highly recommend!

Good lunch We were looking for a venue half way between us in Cornwall and relatives from Bristol area to meet up and chose the Mitre Inn by chance. We were not disappointed. We had lunch which was tasty, plentiful and good value. Our dog was made welcome and given a treat – thank you. Will call again if in the area.

Family Sunday Lunch The interior of the Mitre Inn is lovely. We were shown to a table and the waitress was very prompt taking food and drinks orders. One of the best roast dinners we have had in a while in a pub. Piping hot. Between us we had 3 different meats and all were really tender. Lovely choice of fresh vegetables. We were so full we couldn’t eat dessert. Would definitely recommend this restaurant

Very pleasant We visited the pub as a large group so had the back room to ourselves having read past reviews I was a little cautious and was expecting the worse however we were greeted with a smile and staff were very friendly and the food was cooked to a very good standard and food was delivered hot and in table order my steak was cooked perfectly and well presented
There was also a good selection of drinks at the bar.
Thank you for a very enjoyable evening

Great service and helpfu staff We ate here whilst on holiday nearby. We had a good meal, reasonably priced. Staff were friendly and particularly welcoming of our children. I am veggie, and there was a good choice of meals for me.
Once home we realised that our son had left a fleece somewhere on holiday. We phoned the Mitre Inn, who immediately located the lost property. The manager was extremely helpful and immediately arranged to post the item to us and phoned to let us know when this was done….great service, thank you!

Great pub! Great food, warm friendly service, very accommodating for large party. The service was quick, the food well cooked and very reasonably priced. Would thoroughly recommend.

Holiday for 33!! We booked here for our 1st night of Holiday, we had our own room for 33 of us. The food was good and service was just as good. The staff were friendly and accommodating. We all got served together and everyone had a nice time. Sadly they ran out of a few things but managed to please everyone. Very nice!!

Stumbled upon this by accident – what a great find! I was with a small group of friends, looking for a pub for some lunch, happened upon this one, and we were all very pleased with it. Quite a few menus and choices. We were advised that the kitchen would be closing in 10 minutes and which was the best menu to choose from. Excellent food, good service, and a very pleasant village pub. We did not stay here, only ate lunch and had a drink, so I cannot comment on the accommodation.

Great food & good service We thought we would spend our first evening In Witheridge at The Mitre Inn. We are pleased that we did!

The food was beautifully presented & tasted delicious.

Friendly pub, helpful owner Pub owner went out of her way to give us refreshments at an outdoor table when pub itself was closed. We also enjoyed an Indian meal here!

Excellent in all respects We have been staying in cottages nearby on holiday. We have eaten here on three occasions and found it excellent in all respects. On one occasion they catered for a party of eighteen of us at short notice. Tonight my wife and father-in-law went in for the weekly curry night. We had three beautifully cooked curries. Also, they were excellent value as there is a special offer of two curries for £18.50 – exceptional value. The food was served very quickly and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Strongly recommended.

Fine dining Lovely, cosy and friendly pub/restaurant. Excellent choice of food though not extensive in range. Reasonably priced and exceptionally presented. We ate there twice and could not fault on either occasion. Highly recommend.

Always a warm welcome and great food As always a warm welcome from owners Andy and Barb.

Great choice of beers and a constantly changing specials menu mean you never get bored here!

Two Moors Way We were made very welcome on our overnight stop, walking the 2 Moors Way. A very creative menu, with tappas as a starter, then strips of smoked fish. Really great with lovely, attentive waitresses and bar staff. The room was basic but very suitable for our needs. Then a full English breakfast the next morning. This pub is obviously the heart of the community. Keep up the good work!

Pub grub with a smile We had good old fashioned pub grub this weekend when we visited Witheridge for Iron Man Race.

Staff were friendly and welcoming, portions very generous.

And the dog is lovely!

Interesting food, cooked from scratch They have a very good vegan/ veggie choice, and the meat chompers love it too. Everything is cooked from scratch, and well presented. Like it very much.

un pub ideal des plats succulents (y compris végétariens ce qui est assez rare)
une carte des desserts bien fournie et c’est un pub de village avec l’ambiance et les bierres qui vont avec.
un plongeon en Angleterre au coeur du Devon,

Very friendly and amazing food.

This is a fantastic find the food is delicious and the place is very friendly they made use feel very welcome and had a great time

Pricey but nice

Fantastic I have stayed in this pub 5 times while looking for a home in North Devon,and everytime has been a pleasure. Always a warm welcome, good beer and the food is out of this world.The rooms are very comfortable and spacious. If you are looking for pub grub look somewhere else but if you are looking for something special at pub grub prices this is the place, the food is outstanding.

Great food and welcome at The Mitre Our family including our cockapoo received a warm welcome at the Mitre several times during our Easter Break. The staff were friendly and the food was of a really good quality. Most of the time we ate in the bar but on our last night we ate in the restaurant. We would definitely recommend it!

Witheridge Food is of a good standard and the staff are very good. Beer is good and a lovely fire which make the place very cosy

Dinner on a Saturday night Dinner on a Saturday night and was excellent. Grilled fish was lovely, tasty delicious and worth it. The chocolate dessert was tasty. Overall, the meal was lovely. The waitress was helpful and knowledgeable. The cook/manager came out to see us and make sure all of us (10) were happy.

Good food, well presented although portion sizes a little on the small size for the price Had lunch in the cosy bar last week with relatives. The food was well presented and tasty although for the cost, some of the meals were a little on the small size.

Delicious Sunday lunch Really fantastic Sunday Roast dinner with gorgeous homemade puddings. Fantastic service and very friendly welcoming place to eat.

Visited on recommendation Visited after being recommend by Chris & Jonquil from South Combe Farm
Lovely warm cozy pub on a cold October night
Local real ale was a treat
Dinning room is quiet and warm, the food and sevice were great
Well worth a look at the specials board

The walk home was needed after a great meal…
Would definitely visit again

Excellent Stay and Evening Meal We stayed at The Mitre and had an evening meal which was excellent. We were visiting family and they came with us on Saturday evening for dinner, The food and service was excellent and really good value for the quality. Karen, who served us for dinner and breakfast was friendly and very efficient. Would definitely stay and dine here again.

Great meal Just had a wonderful meal at this inn. Not tried it before but since our pub shut we’ve been looking for another place to eat and this was recommended by friends of ours.
Would recommend to anyone.

Delicious first rate food This pub has lovely friendly staff and amazing fresh cooked food, definitely better food than the pub down the road in Nomansland! Can not fault on food at all, good choice of drinks,.

Cheeky night off Lovely traditional pub good food need to visit again had rooms available will need to try this and restaurant

evening meal We had a superb meal in this charming country pub, we ate in the restaurant and found the staff friendly . There are specials a on offer and all the food was freshly cooked and homemade.

Good Home Family Cooking Andy and his Staff, have successfully built a strong foundation for this Pub/Restaurant, by offering great food, great drink, and great hospitality. Food is served Piping Hot and with a smile, nothing is to much trouble for the waiting staff, and there knowledge of the produce served is excellent.

Interesting pub with excellent food We have visited this pub on several occasions. The landlord is very welcoming and food is always excellent. Much thought has gone into the interesting and varied menu but there is the usual pub grub too. Something for everyone, meat, fish, vegetarian, Sunday roasts. Puddings very good too. The caramelised ginger and banana pancakes are to die for.

Great food and staff This is a very nice village inn with a nice menu that has a few different dishes on it to the normal fare. I had the hake on a bed of sweet chilli vegetables which was very nice indeed. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. There are two main eating areas, the bar and in the restaurant. The restaurant is nice and well finished. I can definitely recommend eating here.

Spectacular steak We had amazing food at the Mitre. Best steak medalions around and the scallop starter was cooked to perfection. Baby and buggy friendly too. Roughly £25 a head for 2 courses. Lovely meal!

Sunday Lunch I had Sunday Lunch this week with my family. The choice of meats and vegetables is great and all well cooked and presented. The reputation this place has earned for its roasts is well deserved. I had a black cherry pavlova for desert despite not being a “dessert person”. I am now well and truly converted.

enjoyable meal Very pleased to be able to take our two dogs into the pub with us to enjoy an evening meal. Although we had to sit in the bar area we found the service exactly the same as in the restaurant. The food was extremely well presented and cooked to perfection.Thank you

Accommodating and welcoming stay for family with young baby We stayed 1 night and ate dinner here on the first night of our 2 moors way walk. We found the staff to be very friendly, welcoming and helpful with our baby. The hotel was characterful and interesting with clean comfortable rooms. The dinner menu had plenty of choice and our meals were tasty. Breakfast was delicious! Overall a lovely place to stay in a very picturesque village.

An excellent place to end the day Great pub/hotel where you are made to feel welcome .
Superb food , and whatever you do don’t miss breakfast 😉

Lovely Stay We stayed for four nights at The Mitre Inn last week. Clean, well run, very friendly service. We ate in the restaurant every night and the food was very good. Breakfast delicious too! Would highly recommend The Mitre Inn.

A must!! Enjoyed a wonderful Sunday lunch with children, grandchildren and local family! Yorkshire pudding is a new favorite for my grandchildren. Super friendly!
Sue and Stan, Idaho U.S.A.

Consistently good food Have been several times and always had a lovely tasty meal with fresh vegetables and a very welcoming, and at times, entertaining welcome ! Highly recommended.

Excellent food As this is one of our local pubs, I can highly recommend the food, excellent choice and as my husband is coeliac extra trouble is always taken to ensure he is informed as to what he can have. In the winter a lovely fire is always burning to add to the welcome.

Delicious food We had dinner here on a midweek evening. Staff were welcoming and the food was delicious. I had the venison for main course and cheese board for dessert and my partner had the ribs for main course and we both enjoyed the meal. We had to wait 25 minutes for our drinks as the waitress had forgotten them, but this did not detract from an enjoyable meal.

Superb 3 night visit and food Brilliant weekend break. Great base to see north devon. Food, drinks and room were excellent too. Definitely recommend it.

Good for lunch Stopped here for lunch whilst walking the Two Moors Way. Food was excellent. The service was a bit slow but we weren’t in a hurry. The beer (Hound Dog) was lovely, but only had time for two!!

Great pub, great staff, great food The owner of this pub made us feel welcome. Food was great, staff excellent. Good value for the money.

Lovely welcoming pub with great food Lovely food, went twice in our stay near witheridge. Once with our dog where we had a meal in the main bar and once in the restaurant were we had a fantastic meal for my wife’s birthday. Fantastic value

Thank you Mitre Inn Just stayed for one night after a concert in the nearby church.
Enjoyed good home cooked food with good real ale. Comfortable room and a really good breakfast to finish. Thanks

Village setting with very good food We had our village Christmas meal here – there were around 24 of us. The meals came out together, were beautifully presented, full of flavour and with plenty of vegetables available. We were not rushed, service was very good and friendly. Have booked to go for my husband’s birthday meal.

Stayed locally in a self catering cottage We visited on two occasions at lunchtime after walking in the locality. The landlord was very friendly, and we really enjoyed the food and the ale which was great,

Perfect! Another incredible meal in such beautiful surroundings. The food is exceptional and the atmosphere is so lovely. We never fail to have a wonderful time be it dinner or drinks in the bar. Absolute perfection.

Delicious meal to celebrate special birthday. Excellent choice on the menu. Generous portion sizes. Warm and friendly staff and dog friendly too if you eat in the bar area.

Brilliant I booked this restaurant for 24 people and everyone said how excellent it was, the food, the service, the price, the atmosphere and venue. I was even allowed to chose my own menu choices comprising of 4 starters, 4 mains and 4 deserts. Really excellent, many thanks.

Lovely village pub Welcoming pub with good food. I would recommend the burger but they also have a selection of other meals including daily specials which looked good.

Exploring Local Pubs – Found a Good’un Decided to give the Mitre a go after our local was not serving food one night…

Glad we did, food was excellent, landlord welcoming and bloody good beer.

Very happy we tried this place, will be back for more

Great Local Pub The Mitre was our ‘local’ for the few days we were staying in Witheridge. We found the Inn to have a lovely cozy atmosphere and we were welcomed by the locals.

The food was of a great standard, in fact we ate there three nights in a row and found no fault with anything we ordered.

Would definitely recommend.

lovely -but an occasional changing menu would be nice always friendly. vintage vibe . salads and soups and cakes all fresh.newspaper available which is always welcome

Lovely Country Pub We eat there today to finish off our weekend in Witheridge. The staff were really great and the food was excellent. Great value for money as well.

Very nice food We ate here several times whilst holidaying nearby. Staff were very friendly and the food was lovely, I particularly loved the vegetarian lasagne. One one visit they had run out of the pudding my daughter ordered and they made her up an even better ice cream concoction which she was very happy about. Would definitely visit again if in the area.

Scrumptious Sunday lunch Omg!!! What a find. A fab roast -beef & all the trimmings followed by delicious chocolate fondant (black currant sorbet for my daughter). All delicious. Fab roasties &veggies!!
Great service. We will be back .

Good pub with great food We ate here 4 times over the week and it was a difficult choice as to what to eat each time. The food was excellent with a good choice of wines and beers. It had a vegan menu which my daughter loved. We found it hard to find places that catered for her diet and so we were so please that we found this place.

A little gem The landlord has a great sense of humour! The restaurant is spacious, airy and has interesting decorations and artefacts on the walls. The tables were beautifully laid out with proper napkins in rings.

The service was polite, friendly and efficient. There’s a good selection of drinks and delicious food. At the front of the menu there’s a brief and interesting history of the pub.

We will definitely dine there again.

Exellent food and menu Friendly local village pub with outstanding quality of food, on numerous visits we have never been disappointed by Andy and Barbaras hospitality.

Lovely meal We enjoyed a great meal at the Mitre Inn. Lovely food and very friendly people. We were a large group and everything was just right …. despite our indecisiveness our orders were taken efficiently and with a sense of humour! Would definitely return

A very dog friendly pub If your dog is well behaved it is welcome at this pub. We gave them an hours notice due to poor weather yet they were happy to seat 12 people and 3 dogs. The food was fantastic and the bill was very reasonable. Will definitely eat here again before the end of the holiday. It’s a little old fashioned but that adds to the charm.

Excellent I visited this pub with my family. I must say the service was excellent, the food gorgeous and the staff all friendly and helpful. I am on a fluten free diet but could eat most things on the menu. I would highly recommend it and would definitely return if I’m in the area.

Lovely country pub We stopped here by chance, and we were not disappointed! Efficient, lovely food, and pleasant service. Our little girl Evie was delighted with her penguin ice cream followed by an extra chocolate treat off Andy! Thanks, would certainly return 🙂

Comfortable and friendky We’ve had a very comfortable stay here. Friendly couple, good breakfast and a dog friendly room. We would be happy to stay again

Excellent Pub Restaurant Had an evening meal with the family at the Mitre Inn only restaurant open in 15 mile radius.. What a gem, excellent menu, great food and great service. There is a seperate restaurant which is very spacious. One interesting point the Sunday Luch menu was still reatained in the evening which a number of the family took advantage of. We wiil be back. A very enjoyable experience.

Excellent pub food Chose this pub on the basis of the reviews on here and weren’t disappointed – both had rump steak which were exceedingly tasty, and large portions so great value!

Fantastic Food! Great food at The Mitre Inn! We really enjoyed a Sunday lunch at the Mitre.

It’s a family friendly place to eat and is very reasonably priced.

Great welcome We were a large diverse group (20 of us, 1 to 80 years old). Staff and locals alike were welcoming and accommodating, went in for a drink without booking, without issue. A few of us ordered food which was fine, and there were some very good real ales. Husband is working up excuses to return.

Great SundayRoast Despite only living a few miles away, we had never stopped off in Witheridge. We have obviously missed out on the Mitre as the Sunday lunch was stunning. The food was really superb, plenty of it with lovely vegetables and top value for money. Definitely on the list for another visit.

Friendly A warm and friendly atmosphere and excellent red wine! The owner made a point of coming to talk to us.

Very good pub lunch We lunched here on a wet day walking from Morchard Bishop to Knowstone.
The landlord is a very cheerful guy, serving good ales (try the Twiglet’s Tipple) and hearty food (my steak & ale pie was excellent).
Highly recommended for fellow walkers.

Really good value – good quality food and big portions Very welcoming service and a very varied menu. A good choice for kids (although the portion sizes were quite big for them – check how much they are going to need before ordering).

Lovely Sunday roast We popped in for an impromptu lunchtime drink and were so glad we did. Even though we hadn’t booked we were made welcome and found a table for lunch. The food was excellent and our only regret is that we had no room left for one of their yummy sounding homemade puddings! We will be back very soon.

family meal good ambeince quit family pub average pub quality grub fitted our purpose met our reqqrments at short notice

Excellent food I visited the Mitre Inn twice last week with my family, both meals were excellent, great choice, cooked to perfection and good portions. The service was brilliant and the hosts and staff were very welcoming and friendly. Andy took time to speak to my grandson Oscar who is only 5 and made him feel special. My only regret is none of us had room for dessert. I would certainly recommend this pub for any occasion.

A lovely lunch A lovely lunch. Food was homemade and very tasty. Really enjoyed our visit and will be heading back soon.

Excellent and varied menu Great choice of food including a range of meat and fish courses, vegetarian options and sumptuous puddings. The hake with roasted Mediterranean vegetables is superb followed by a very rich cheesecake with blueberry sauce

Log fire and great food, dog friendly Lovely warm atmosphere and not just because of the log fire, the owners and staff made us feel very welcome especially with our dog and even had dog treats for him. The food was lovely with plenty of choice on the menu and different prices to suit all budgets, a great place to go.

Good beer & nice food. A welcome relaxing place. A great pit-stop to taste to the real ale & satisfying food after a tiring day-trip out. Even the fish smile.

Welcoming to humans and animals! Fabulous pub, made to feel very welcome, delicious food, great ales and absolutely delicious desserts! If you are in the area, can highly recommend

Lovely pint of Stag A nice pint in a nice pub. Perfect place to take the paper and while away an hour or two.

The sunday roast was very nice too!

Would happily return Friendly, welcoming and excellent service. Dinner was lovely and we will return. Thank you for a very nice evening.

Sunday Roast Looking for a place for Sunday lunch my friend and I stopped here. Lovely atmosphere with the open fire and very friendly staff. I think this is the best Sunday Roast I have ever eaten out. Everything was cooked perfectly, a good selection of vegetables and potatoes with some great herbs. We also had a pudding and coffee which was delicious and very good value for money.

the best chips Excellent food for a special night out. The chips are something else. Not priced for everyday eating.

Friendly, good food, brilliant for kids While staying at West Middlewick Farm Log Cabins we looked for somewhere to eat out. We tried the Mitre Inn and can totally recommend it! Such a friendly pub, helpful staff and delicious food. The children thoroughly enjoyed their meals and the ice creams afterwards, which were presented in novelty penguin cups, which they were able to take home. Wish we had found the pub (and restaurant) sooner!

Valentines meal A wonderful meal in a beautiful setting. Warm welcome and great food…one of the best steaks I’ve had in a long time.

Brilliant Sunday Roast! If you are looking for a traditional pub with a log fire and amazing food – look no further. We had the most amazing Sunday roast today. The landlord was really welcoming and the atmosphere was so relaxed. Just what we wanted. Not forgetting the fact that the food was reasonably priced. We will be back for sure!

Warm welcome with fine food & drink Lip smacking lunch at The Mitre Inn accompanied by a log fire, fine red wine and top class real ale. Steak was melt in the mouth, cooked to perfection and the hake with marrow & sweet chilli sauce was just beautiful. Definitely one of the best places to eat in the area. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere, great menu We were staying at the campsite down the road in mid November, so we wanted somewhere warm and dry to eat. The Mitre certainly offers that. A friendly village atmosphere with a welcoming landlord and a roaring log fire. What’s not to like? Good menu with everything available even on a quiet Thursday night, wide range of vegi, fish, and even something for the carnivores.
Certainly be back when I don’t have to drive. That Exmoor beer deserves further investigation.

Great Vegan/Vegetarian choices We had heard that the pub did cater for vegans and vegetarians but didn’t expect such a choice on the menu.3 starters 4 main courses and 4 or 5 desserts and about the same choices for vegetarians too. The chef came out to talk to us suggesting various things and informing us about things on the main menu that could be adapted etc.
We chose the lasagne and weren’t disappointed, good sized portions with an amazing side salad.
Unlike a lot of places where you are made to feel a hindrance we were made to feel very welcome (and our 3 dogs too). Thursday night is quiz night which starts around 8.45 which was fun.

very friendly we were staying at B&B nearby and decided to have our evening meal at the Mitre as we had stopped for a meal there a few years earlier as we passed through Witheridge we remembered it being very nice we were not disappointed we had a lovely meal

The Mitre A very warm and cosy village pub, with plenty of character. Great chatty landlord. We spent New Years Eve at the Inns fancy dress party , with live guitarist , and had a fab time. Locals very hospitable. We stayed at Southcoombe cottages less than a mile away. MANY THANKS FOR A GREAT NEW YEARS SEND OFF.

Lovely , warm and welcoming meal just before Xmas Well done to all at the inn, for making it a lovely relaxing time.It was so nice to see feel the heat of your open fire, a wonderful evening had by us all,great food great staff.

It’s always a pleasure! I am a relative newcomer to the village however I must say from the very first time I set foot in the Mitre both Andy and Barbara have made me feel like one of the locals. As a family we visit on a regular basis and nothing is too much trouble. We recently got married in the local church and a few of our friends popped in for a quick drink before the service. The comments from each and every one of them was what a warm welcome they received and how nice it was to have a such a great pub in the village that we lived in. Never a true word has been spoken. Thanks Andy and Barbara.

A hidden gem in North Devon! My husband & I had a long weekend recently in Devon and were recommended the Mitre Inn by our B&B. We ended up eating there 3 nights in a row! Food was fantastic, lovely cosy atmosphere & great host/pub owner. We are both veggie but they went out their way to cater for us & even had a separate vegan menu! Really great cannot highly recommend enough! Honestly do yourself a favour & go to Mitre Inn if in the area. Massive thumbs up!

Fantastic family run pub in the heart of the Devonian countryside My partner and I stayed at the pub during May. The weather was lovely (you can never rely on the english summer!) and the pub was busy and extremely well presented and the service was excellent. We stayed for a short three night break and the bed and breakfast was very well priced and the accommodation facilities were excellent. We have to say the food was fantastic! Overall our stay was very nice and we would definitely return again. Thank you to all the staff, especially Andy & Barbara.

Always enjoy The Mitre We are regular visitors to The Mitre, and it is always a good experience. Love the food, love the atmosphere.

Great place to eat and drink with friendly staff We live locally to the mitre and quite often eat and drink there, as most locals do. Excellent food. Great beers, and a good place to chill. We find the landlord and landlady very welcoming.

Sunday Lunch We enjoyed a lovely roast beef lunch in front of a roaring fire on a particularly wet Sunday. We were unsure about visiting, having read previous reviews, but everyone was very friendly and helpful. Great food, good prices and cosy atmosphere – definitely returning soon.

The Mitre – Lovel Pub Good food and landlord who likes to chat! Lovely village feel & in a cosy country pub.

Friendly welcome with good food We’d been staying in some cottages 1/2 mile from the pub and given it was the only option in the village we gave it a try. The landlord was a friendly fellow and was had a bit of a chat over a pint whilst the kids were giving the pub cat some fuss. Ordered homemade burgers and chips for lunch one day and duck and venison for an evening meal another. Good, locally sourced food, nice ales and family friendly. Would recommend to others.
