I went down with friends expecting a busy , lively atmosphere because there was a live band on & I have been to live band nights on a Fri night before & they were great . I went in there & I was shocked , it was really quiet with no atmosphere, you could have cut the atmosphere with a knife . The barman wasn’t friendly & welcoming & it just felt very cold & uninviting .

It's the oldest pub in Honiton, smack in the middle of the High Street, and has an impeccable tradition of welcoming locals and visitors alike. It's quite unpretentious inside (a 'long narrow pub' reflecting the nature of the coaching inn layout, with ample outdoor seating) and expect "well lived in" surroundings and decor.
