Review of Catch Of The Day

10 Nov 07, 15:36

great seafood... 4*

This is a lovely restaurant situated on the main street of Salcombe. They specialise in seafood (hence the name) and are very good at what they do. The food is really tasty and of a high standard. They have a good selection and have regular specials on the menu. The seafood is fresh and from the local area. The decor is nice and inviting. There is also a small area of tables upstairs which over looks the rest of the restaurant. The staff are friendly and attentive. The prices are quite high, but are on line with other places in Salcombe. This place books up very quickly in high season so it is always worth booking a couple of days in advance. A very good restaurant..

Review of Spice Mahal

10 Nov 07, 14:41

good service... 3*

A reasonable Indian restaurant in most aspects. I regularly have a takeaway from the Spice Mahal. The portions from the takeaway are generous, offering good value for money, and delivery is usually quite quick with the food arriving warm to hot. This is pretty good when taking into consideration the country roads especially in summer. A great variety of dishes and set meals are available with other types of dishes running alongside the usual Inidan food. Overall a decent takeaway service.

Review of Jasmine Chinese Restaurant

10 Nov 07, 14:25

great takeaway... 3*

The Jasmine is Kingsbridge is a restaurant and take away service. I have never been to the restaurant but have never heard anything bad about it. The takeaway service is pretty good. They offer free delivery to salcombe when you spend over £15 (which is easily done). They arrived within an hour which isnt too bad. Of course times will vary depending when in the evening you order. The food is really good. Its one of the best chinese takeways I've had. Prices are ok, for some reason Chinese always seems to be more expensive than other takeaways. But if you dont feel like cooking I reccommend the Jasmine

Review of Lidstones Butchers

05 Nov 07, 21:11

Traditional local butcher... 4*

This is an amazing traditional butchers, the butcher even wears a boater, and you can almost imagine that there is sawdust on the floor. Their mission statement states that they aim to sell the highest quality locally produced organic meat from traditionally reared animals. The blackboard in the shop informs the customer which local farmer has supplied the beef, pork, lamb and poultry that is sold in the shop each day. The meat is absolutely fabulous; tender, full of flavour, just simply out of this world. If you are visiting or living in this part of Devon this is the best butchers shop I know of.

Review of Reel Cinema

The reel deal... 3*

The Reel Cinema is really quaint and a refreshing change from the huge multiplexes. The screens are small and dont hold a huge amount of people but I quite like that. The seating is comfortable and the decor is ok. Dont expect to see films as soon as they are released here, it is deepest darkest devon after all. A good thing about the reel cinema is that the popcorn is really cheap! I wouldnt come here if you want the big screen experience; however, I would come here if you want to help a local cinema and watch a film in a different more unique environment.
