The New Inn
Your new hosts Debbie and Jason Manton offer a warm welcome to The New Inn Restaurant & Bar set in the beautiful village of Sampford Courtenay near Okehampton Devon. The New Inn at Sampford Courtenay sits on the edge of Dartmoor in a picture postcard village of thatched cottages famous for the Prayer Book Rebellion.

We are situated on the A3072 old holiday route to Bude and North Devon and within easy reach of the A30 trunk road from Exeter to Cornwall. We only use the freshest ingredients from local suppliers and farms from fish to meat and game lovingly created into mouth watering dishes along with the finest real ales from the South West and our selected wines from around the world makes for the place to wine and dine.

Nice cozy pub with low beams, comfy seating and a fire. Dog friendly. I enjoyed a delicious vegetarian halloumi and mushroom burger on a brioche bun. Also lovely parsnip soup.

Christmas party dinner for 7 - great food and service. Dealt with my covid anxiety calmly. Hope the new owners do well. They deserve to.

A very cosy pub with a good selection of beer and wine and a reasonably varied menu. Food was good (the freshly prepared pie was worth waiting for) and the drinks were nice and refreshing. Staff were friendly and polite and service was prompt. All very enjoyable, thank you.

Having just walked Meldon Reservoir we were in need of some good food. Luckily, we stumbled across the New Inn and despite it being 2.30pm when they stop serving food, they kindly made us some great lunch. Excellent customer service in a superb location

We had a great Sunday lunch, mix of roast diners, homemade pies.
Great service, food was fantastic, pork belly starter was fantastic. Sticky toffee puds were to die for.
Would recommend for everyone.

We visited The New Inn whilst on holiday in Devon, and found the staff and owners to be lovely and friendly.
I have given 3 stars as there wasn't an awful lot of choice on the menu, with even dessert choices being limited.
We also encountered quite a few flies whilst eating at our table which obviously wasn't a pleasant experience whilst eating. Fully appreciate that the setting is within the countryside and that it was summer at the time, but the level of flies was very high, and having to keep trying to cover your food and drinks whilst then trying to get them out of the way was very frustrating

We visited for Sunday lunch. After being made to feel very welcome by the host. A lovely country pub restaurant with a nice selection of different meals and all the favourites as well. The skate wings on the fish menu were astounding which wouldn't have been out of place on a any top notch fish restaurant. The whole experience was excellent from start to finish. Definitely booking again even if it is long drive from Gosport.

We had the pleasure of eating here twice in August. Friendly staff and good food. The homemade burger is particularly recommended. Ample seating outside and cosy inside should the weather be like it is in the summer of 2021.

Wow what can I say? All credit to the new owners of the New Inn. We just had a superb meal here. The place has been really freshened up. The menu is perfect size, not huge, but a great selection and something to suit every palate. We ended up having 3 courses just because it all looked so good. Hats off to the chef for beautifully cooked food. Atmosphere was great and the owners were very welcoming. Thoroughly recommend a visit here

Really lovely pub, in a beautiful setting. The beer garden looked clean and spacious, and the inside was very sweet, and cleaned regularly. Prompt service, we were never kept waiting, the waitresses were friendly and professional, they were working really well as a team. Food was exceptional for the price. Dare I say the best battered fish I've ever had?!? Delicious! The steak was delightful too, cooked just how I requested and melt in your mouth. Chips we're great on both of our meals! The owners are friendly too, and we're both there working alongside their team running the evening really well
