I stayed at the St. George & Dragon on a recent Wednesday so had a drink here before wandering down to Topsham which is about a 15 minute walk away. The traditional and rustic interior is L-shaped with a central red tile floored bar area with a wooden serving counter across the rear. To the left of the counter is a large central chimney breast with fireplace and behind this is the hotel check in. To the left is a wooden floored lounge and further left is a dining area where the morning’s breakfast was hosted. There was a wake in progress in the right-hand side of the pub, but I did stick my nose in when I was checking out the following morning to find lots of set tables. Premium keg was available alongside Neck Oil and two of the five hand pumps were in use drawing St Austell’s Proper Job and Sharp’s Doom Bar. The service was polite and I didn’t have any issues with my room, but I didn’t leave having been wowed.

Large Vintage Inns pub on road junction, so as expected mainly given over to food, which was ok but pretty much as you might expect. Interior pleasant enough but again fairly predictable. Beer was ok though - Cask marque listed. Rear part seems to be more of a motel than anything else.

First went here over three years ago - decor is nice, beer is good and food has usually been alright. Had a bit of a break from the place and returned today for a late lunch - found they had four different menus, which was confusing. When our meals came, neither had anything green on them at all - not even a garnish - never had this happen before. We then tried to order a side salad to go with our main meals, but it didn't arrive until after we'd finished eating. They reimbursed the money for the salad - but perhaps the worst bit was when I told the manager I'd been disappointed that there was no salad with either of our meals (especially my companion's lasagne which was pricier than my steak sandwich) he implied I shouldn't complain because I'd got chips for free with my steak sandwich (which was tiny by the way). What? Chips were part of the meal price, not free.
