Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Just perfect - once in a while you find a restaurant that you wish was near home that you could visit more frequently. The restaurant owner did EVERYTHING to ensure that our meal was exceptional, and that everyone was catered for. The food is 1st...class, and the management obviously know the restaurant trade intimately and made sure all the little things were taken care of, just a pleasure to visit - so much so that we had to come back a second night which was equally enjoyable. Until the next time, hope it's not too long. ps. the fish pie is just scrummyMore

Hidden gem tucked away , very welcoming staff, menu not a lot of choice but what we had was very nice. A little on the pricier side cost £75 for 3 of us just for mains and drinks . However cost aside it’s a lovely...little pub and the food is great places like this are hard to find especially staff the guy who greeted us was very friendly and professional.More

We are staying in Braunton for a weeks holiday. I can honestly say this is the best pub for food I've been too in my 52 years! Plenty of Gluten Free options and Vegan options. Portions are of a generous size. Staff friendly and the...establishment is run by a very professional landlord. We are looking forward to our 3rd visit this week on Sunday.More

We decided to visit after a long walk across Woolacombe beach and then up to Georgham. The couple running the pub were very friendly and the menu is varied and fantastic. We had a couple of starters for 3 of us then 3 main meals....I can’t fault any of it. The wine range is fantastic- had a Shiraz and it was delicious. Will visit again and I highly recommend this lovely pub to anyone wanting a hearty and delicious meal.More

The Sunday Roast was delicious Great portions very tasty. Friendly staff. Good value. The Lamb cooked perfect 8 veg and cooked to perfection. You will need to book. This pub is a bit of a tardis.

Traditional old pub with great selection of beers and ales and impecable service (10 out of 10 for Daniel, our waiter today). Went there for lunch with friends, the special of the day, mussels, chips and bread was delicious as was the crab salad and...the cream soup. All in all a great experience!More

I have been here a few times as a couple or with friends and it never disappoints. Extensive wine list, good beer (Exmoor Gold or Tribute) but could have done with a wider zero alcohol beer selection. Perfect succulent squid with Far Eastern flavours of...ginger and soy. Duck breast perfect for me since I hate bloody or wet pink meat in the middle but some might think over done. Sticky Toffee pudding is usually a let down and in every dessert menu, but I’ve had this before and it was light, fluffy and not a bit stodgy. Price is undoubtedly at the higher end of the scale but this is food of a high standard cooked by a kitchen team who know how to put terrific flavour on a plate. Service a little over eager at times … hardly sat down before asking if we had made our choice but at least staff were easy to engage with when we needed something. Dog friendly. We will definitely return again even though Georgeham is a bit off the main routes and accessed by some narrow lanes.More

Must say this was the best roast I've had in ages and served with a good pint of Otter! Serving sizes were just about right and the side dishes of vegetables were very tasty. Nice atmosphere in the pub but we will book in advance...next time.More

I'd already been recommended this pub by a friend and we were lucky enough to be staying almost next door to it. Both evenings they were booked but managed to fit us in. There's a good choice of beers etc. The staff were friendly and...accommodating and it feels like a good old fashioned pub. The food was excellent both nights we were there, with good choice of classic pub and modern restaurant dishes. We loved it.More

Great country pub serving good food. Interesting menu. Entering pub, through the bar and it open up like a tardis into spacious light airy tastefully decorated dining room. The are dog friendly for well behaved K9s and if the small car park is full, there's...a village free car park just around the corner.More

This place absolutely smashed it after a very long day of walking! Great food, great family vibe, lovely service and dog friendly. Also worth mentioning they had a baby change in the gents - often a rarity in older buildings. Loved the conversation of the...‘rock-out’ section. The decor was spot-on, great posters and footie news in the gents! Was absolutely knackered but would probably have stayed for much longer otherwise!More

I was staying in the Ilfracombe area for the weekend at the end of September 2023. I had heard good reports from friends about the Rock Inn at Georgeham and therefore decided to make a 20 mile round trip to visit it. I planned to...arrive early, shortly after 11.00 a.m., to read the Sunday papers over a pint, and then to have Sunday lunch there. I checked Google, in order to check their opening times, and discovered that they opened their doors at 11.00 a.m. I duly arrived at 11.05 a.m. and was relieved to see that the pub lighting was on, both inside and outside the pub, and that a board outside the front door stated "bar open all day everyday". On entering the bar, the very unwelcoming barmaid informed me "We don't open till 12". I said that I only wanted to sit down with a pint and that I had made a special journey to visit the pub. She disappeared into the back of the pub and reappeared and said "We can't serve you". This is not hospitality in my opinion and the proprietors of this otherwise pleasant pub should give their bar staff better training in the definition and concept of hospitality. I relocated to a friendlier and more welcoming establishment and will not return to "The Rock Inn".More

Although the food tasted good, what let the meal down was being surrounded by dogs. I get that for dog owners it is great that they are allowed in - but there were 3 dogs on the tables nearby, one kept barking, one was climbing...on a table, and one had a decidedly "wet dog" aroma. We left as soon as the meal was finished, not staying for dessert or drinks. Such a shame.More

It looked lovely, the route from Braunton was down long windie lanes, if we went again I would find a more direct route. We did notveat because they do serve food until 5pm, which was fine, but it did not say that on Trip Advisor....So we went back to Braunton to get fish and chips.More

I am not quite sure. Have a look on their website or download the Devon,Cornwall and Ilfracombe app. Am not sure of the exact address for the app but it's very useful.

Yes I believe you can but only at the front of the pub - probably best to let them know. You definitely have to book a table in the summer.
