All landed where possible at Brixham or Plymouth, we offer simple fresh fish with a view of the River to go with it! The Floating Bridge has gained the reputation of having one of the best "Fish and Chips" in Dartmouth. Our chefs make our batter fresh, every morning, using real local cask ale.

What could be better than sitting in the sunshine, up on our heated Roof Terrace with the most fantastic views of the surrounding area and the bustling estuary of the river Dart.The Higher ferry literally docks at the doorstep of the Pub adding interest to the whole experience.

Really excellent proper pub food
The locally sourced fish dishes are particularly fine and generous portions.
I can also highly recommend the Sea Fury Ale and encourage you to give the dining offer a try.
You will not be disappointed

We arrived earlier this evening and told no table available. Ordered a drink and waited outside and were seated very quickly after a few minutes. Food and staff are fantastic. I had medium fish and chips, batter so light and fish was so fresh and flavoursome. Other half had Lasange followed by Banana choc chip cake. Both very really nice. Good price for what we had. Hope to return before we leave to go home.

Good sized portions. A little wait for a table (you cannot book), but we were kept informed & the wait was worth it. Muscles were excellent, as were the fish & chips & the warm brie & walnut salad. At the moment The Floating Bridge is only open from Wednesday to Sunday.

After a long drive this was the only place in Dartmouth who had a table available for us to have dinner. I must admit we were famished but the (adult) kids burgers disappeared in no time, my fish and chips were excellent and the ham, egg and chips was also given the thumbs up. There was a very respectable choice of deserts, we all had something different and every plate was scraped clean. The bill, with drinks, was reasonable. I look forward to returning next year 🙂

Great find just out of the centre of Dartmouth. Really nice place. Food was cracking (crab sandwich was first rate). Apalls cider very welcome, do a good rage of beers. Lovely spot next to the river Dart. Shame the terrace wasn't open.

Really nice pub with staff who care about their ales and the whole pub experience. Pleasant roof terrace close to the river and excellent catch of the day sea food offer.
After a day of being told everything was booked out it was a pleasure to discover this little gem with a warm welcome. Thoroughly recommended!

It was not too busy when we visited in the afternoon. It's table service and our order was taken quickly. Did not have to wait too long for the food to arrive. The large portion of steak pie was very filling and tasty. Located by the car ferry great view's across the estuary.
