Tucked amongst the rambling hedgerows of England's fabled cider country, The New Inn has matured into something of a destination pub, jealously shared with pathfinders by its chocolate-box village of Roborough. Specialising in delightfully honest food, washed down with local craft beers & ciders, we prefer the unhurried quality of surrounding farms and independent producers to do the talking.

With a real ale accredited by CAMRA, The New Inn was also crowned CAMRA 'North Devon Cider Pub of the Year' twice in a row, and prides itself on championing uncompromised flavours of the region. Lovely dinner We were staying at nearby High Bullen and so drove over to The New Inn for dinner. Fantastic meal with great drinks.

My wife and I visited for lunch a few weeks ago. Both the fish & chips and the beer were very good. A delightful unspoiled village pub.

We stumbled upon this hidden gem during our stay in Devon. The staff are genuine, friendly and welcoming and the food is phenomenal. We were so impressed with the food and service that we came back the next day! A truly lovely pub tucked away in Devon, if you're looking for somewhere to visit, this is your place! Thank you again to the lovely owners for looking after us! x

Quintessential village pub, great local beers, we had an evening meal, ribeye steak was excellent and cooked to perfection, local sausages and a burger were also a hit with the family, hosts were friendly and attentive, be ready to dine at a leisurely pace....but why the rush just enjoy a classic Devon pub.

Nice meal last Thursday at The New Inn. We were made very welcome and enjoyed the fish and chips, dessert and drinks. The staff gave a birthday cake to another guest which made her evening, which was a nice touch. The church bell ringers also dropped in for a pint after their practice. Great to be able to pop by and support a proper community pub, really recommend The New Inn.

Delicious roast beef lunch, welcoming and friendly service in a lovely country pub. Highly recommended and will go back next time we're here! Must add that our 3 dogs were treated as warmly as we were, a true dog friendly pub!

Wonderful food, nice setting and above all a warm and friendly service. The two owners were extremely hospitable and our server Ned always brought our food + drinks with a smile. Would definitely return if we were in the area again.

Lovely little village pub - I went with family for dinner and it was brilliant. Food was really good and it was a lovely atmosphere with very friendly service. My family who were visiting from London really loved it.

Our first visit to the New Inn since before lockdown. Absolutely lovely, laid back atmosphere, friendly and really efficient service. We wanted a slow drink and a meal to follow. Unlike many places there was no sense of being hassled to order by a deadline. We had a chicken burger and a beef burger - both were the best we could remember tasting, quality ingredients, superbly cooked. Brandy coffee afterwards was great, a really nice touch was being given a little jug of extra coffee to adjust to taste! A great evening all round.

Very friendly pub, very tasty food, very dog friendly. We were a party of seven adults with two dogs and we loved it here, shame we only found it at the end of our holiday! We were wondering which cider to order when four glasses of the drinks we were talking about were brought to our table to try. They were happy to alter a couple of dishes to our requirements, and the chef then made another helpful suggestion we were happy to accept. Totally recommend this place, you won't be disappointed. :-)
