Review of North Devon Cricket Club

nothing better 
On a lovely sunny day, nothing better than to grab a pint form the local pub and sit in the sun and pass a lazy day watching the local teams putting willow to leather and the smell of linseed oil. Can life in North Devon get better than this?

Review of Johns Supermarket

Great place 
I love the fact its called a supermarket .. not really, just a lovely old style village shop that sells everything. The sort of place you pop into to buy a loaf or a pint of milk. Best of all, its a place to catch up with the local gossip. really friendly staff, sometimes TOO friendly.

Review of Wayfarer Inn

Is this place ever open? 
I have often found myself in Instow and have often seen this place on the seafront and often wanted to go in ... but I can never find it open. Perhaps Im just going at the wrong times. A real shame cos the menu looks stunning. fresh locally caught fish!! Oh well I'll keep trying.

Review of The Bar

lifeless
once a thriving local pub with character and atmosphere, this has become an empty lifeless sterile place to have something to eat. its shiny and new, but has no soul. the food is average, the staff are average, the beer is average.

from a pub ... to a sterile lifeless shell
once upon a time this used to be a cramped local pub with "old John" supping his real ale in the corner, beguileing us with tales of yore. It was always packed, always lively and always THE place to gofor a good old pig out. One day it closed. A few months later it opened ... all shiny, all silver, all COLD and no atmosphere. In one stroke, they managed to kill a unique village pub. The food is still ok, probably a bit fancy and a bit pricey for the locals now, but ideal for those trendy once a year city folk who descend on the village ....
