The Kings Arms - West Devon

Lovely staff Popped in on a random weekend away Was welcomed by staff and were very friendly Defo return

Our party of thirteen called here for a couple of afternoon drinks and soon made ourselves comfortable. Very friendly bar staff and reasonably priced drinks. Large screen televisions didn't interfere with our conversation but would probably keep you from getting bored if you are on your own.

Firstly I should make it clear that this review and rating is solely as a pub as we only went in for a couple of drinks, so I cannot comment on the food or restaurant aspect. Situated by the church in the centre of town it looked as though it would be OK for a pint or two. However, once inside it could not be described as a cosy pub, as the bar is quite large (lengthways rather than square) and the modern wood-veneered floor together with the Formica-topped tables give it a functional rather than comfortable or homely atmosphere. Nevertheless, we settled for a pint (the only ones sitting at a table on our side of the bar – all others were standing at the bar or outside smoking) but the music was so loud and intrusive that conversation was difficult, so one pint was enough before moving on.

After recently reviewing a pub where we had a very good lunch for 2 for £10, we were very surprised when we stumbled across this pub in Okehampton advertising lunch 2 for £6.99 !! So, we had to give it a try and it was well worth it. The menu was varied, and even the meals not included in the offer were very reasonably priced. Between us we sampled the steak and kidney pudding, which came with chips peas and gravy, and the fish and chips, which came with peas, tartare sauce and a salad garnish. The drink prices were really good too, and the landlord landlady were very friendly and welcoming. The pub itself appeared to be well kept, clean, and recently decorated. Would certainly go back.

Good value pub food and beer. Huge portion sizes and friendly staff. Town center pub that was busy from when we walked in. Welcoming for familys and apparently a local favourite hangout
