What our customers are saying
Great place to stay when walking the Two Moors Way Lovely friendly pub, right on the Two Moors Way.We had a great night here staying in a double room. The food was good. Definitely recommend.
mosaicmoon5/21/2022VERY ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCE We had a lovely meal. The food was fresh, nicely cooked and flavoursome, the staff and service were excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will certainly return!
Fernside2695/09/2022Disappointing Only popped in for a drink and a snack. Had a choice of three real ales, none of which I’d tried. Asked for a small sample and got told abruptly that they don’t give samples. Being a member of CAMRA this is what they promote. Only had a half and some nuts, which were on there last day before going out of date. Shame as lovely pub. We had just walked from the Thelbridge Cross Inn where the landlady was really friendly and offered samples of ales without me even asking.
jimdE3375LZ5/07/2022Great surprise We were on a long distance drive and just happened to stop outside this pub to check the map. It was lunchtime and we looked up to see this enticing place right beside us with two friendly dogs eyeing us from within. The historic interior is full of character with three bars/dining rooms each with a different atmosphere – there seemed to be a nice garden out the back though we didn’t investigate that. The beer was well kept and the two lunches we had were a very pleasant surprise – all helped by remarkably friendly service. What a lucky chance that we stopped here.
AzBelFan5/06/2022Delicious food, cosy atmosphere Enjoyed the food and drink here – delicious Sunday roast and good weekday menu too. Very friendly owner – we shall definitely be back if we visit the area again!
SoniaH914/01/2022Mother’s Day lunch Our group of 16, including young children, were excellently catered for at The Mitre. We were staying nearby for the weekend. The service was great, the meals all served promptly. Staff were helpful and polite, nothing was too much trouble. All the food we ordered was absolutely delicious! The meats and fish we ordered were exceptional. Lots of fresh veg and gorgeous roast potatoes and lashings of gravy. All served piping hot. Starters and desserts, for those of us that could manage them, were equally as good. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed. All in all, we all agreed that this was super meal with great service in lovely surroundings. Thank you. Just wish we lived a bit nearer, then we would certainly be making return visits! Highly recommended. Well deserved 5 stars!
chrispatriciastevens3/29/2022Unplanned visit on the way home from a day of shopping and we weren't disappointed. Gorgeous food, lovely bar staff and great atmosphere. Will definitely be going back.

cliffanga2/05/2022Great village pub We visited this lovely pub several times whilst staying nearby Dec/Jan 2022 for food and drinks. We are a family of 8 including 2 children and 3 dogs and on every occasion were made very welcome. Food was always excellent. As we had dogs, we only used the bar not restaurant, but ambience in the bar was perfect. Will definitely return if in area again. Highly recommend.
Woodpeckers491/20/2022Highly Recommended I have stayed here three times this year whilst visiting family. It’s a really good place to stay for B&B. The rooms are very pleasant, breakfast is excellent with lots of choice. Barbara and Andy are very friendly hosts and always make you welcome.
The food menu is fabulous with an extensive number of choices for vegetarian and vegan customers as well as an interesting selection of other dishes to choose from.
Lovely to see families and dogs welcome as well. Top Marks all round!Amanda Jones11/15/2021Very friendly and welcoming. My sister and I shared the family room for three nights. The room was very comfortable and the food excellent.
Anne Roberts10/19/2021Great local pub and dog friendly to boot! Lovely village pub, the chef uses fresh local produce and the bar area has a nice ambience. We always come and have a meal here when we are in the area and friendly owners too.
Our dog was welcomed, food was very good and always an evening out we look forward to. Highly recommended.karenponholiday10/03/2021Just brilliant ! We went here whilst on holiday with 2 young children. Couldn’t fault anything, we had a really lovely meal. Great service, great value and they were fantastic with the kids.
We went on their curry night and it was really good.
Can definitely highly recommend it.Love2explorew9/30/2021Great food and service, I had the sausages and my wife had the lasagne and both meals were excellent and service from staff same. Would recommend you visit the mitre, we will certainly do so in the future.

davep3639/19/2021Accommodating owner and lovely food! Visited this pub on a family holiday for an evening meal with dogs! I would have to say that they were very welcoming and accommodating for both us and the doggos! Food was delicious and the service was prompt! The owner was very kind and chatty and even gave our dogs some treats! Would definitely recommend for a lovely evening meal.
Clive B9/09/2021Lovely family meal We were holidaying in Witheridge and had a takeaway from the Mitre Inn on the evening we arrived. We were really impressed with the food and the service so we booked to go back and eat in. The staff were so friendly and the food was gorgeous. They also had a great kids menu which my toddler loved.
charliew2029/06/2021Smashing place for a family meal.Very friendly and helpful and fitted us in despite a late booking and a busy night for them.Excellent food all round and they catered a starter for our daughter as a main meal so very amenable as well.A tiny bit more costly than I’d have expected but never the less a very enjoyable meal and we will return.
Peter Skeggs-Gooch8/26/2021Accommodating, 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!
Rebecca Goode7/11/2021Good 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.sah84856/24/2021Have just enjoyed an excellent Sunday roast with the family. Good food, good beer, friendly service and scrummy deserts.
Keith Wetten6/17/2021Late on in the day of a lengthy bike ride, we called up to see if there was a room available. Hopeful for just a place to lay our heads and have a shower, we were so, so pleased to get the level of hospitality we received from Barbara. She made us feel extremely welcome from the moment we got there. Even though the kitchen was closed, she made us delicious sandwiches. The building is a handsome old place and the room was lovely and clean. We had a cooked breakfast in the morning and Barbara was really accommodating for my girlfriend's dietary requirements (gluten and lactose free). The bar area is exactly what you want from a pub – unchanged and genuine. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.Also, we made it to Lizard Point today!
David Newcombe6/17/2021Great 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.
