    Lovely food, nice table with ample space, courtious service, very helpful, as neither of us had taken our glasses, so server took time to explain. Food portions generous, arrived hot, most enjoyable.

    Ordered medium rare steak, arrived more medium well. Seemed unrested as very firm to cut and dry. The meat almost seemed pre oven cooked as only mild searing on outside but as mentioned fully cooked inside. Sent it back and replacement arrived cooked the same. So if you expect a thick cut sirloin you’ll get one, but do not expect a nice searing and juicy centre, you’ll be very disappointed. Such a shame as a thick piece of meat can be nicely charred for flavour but rested with a melt in the middle texture if prepared right. Lazy cooking here! Lots of pre-cooked elements on plates makes for disappointing meals.

    We visited Bayards Cove as a group of 6, having prebooked for Sunday Lunch. We were not disappointed. We tried the smoked mackerel pate off the specials, mushroom arancini and white bait to start. All really lovely. Then we had the Devon Beef Roast. The beef was cooked lovely, beautifully pink. Massive Yorkshire pudding, beautiful cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes, red cabbage, carrots and very lovely beef gravy. My daughter had the mac & cheese off the kids menu which she loved. We also tried the fish of the day which was plaice and cooked perfect. We had a really nice bottle of Rose called Crazy Tropez. Amazing food and fabulous service. Would highly recommend.
