Ian Mapp left this review about The Bear & Blacksmith
Recommended to us by our landlords as a good place for Sunday Lunch. Mrs M never misses an opportunity when on our travels. Or at home, come to think of it. It is a bit of a long thin gastropub, mainly setup for dining. A couple of hardy locals bar hanging and my by judge of pubmen, quite well oiled. Well done sirs.
Three real ales on. My chosen South Hams Eddystone in less than perfect condition, which I was unable to detect from the small sample.
Food wise - the Sunday lunch was fantastic. At £22 you would probably expect it to. The relatively low score due to the 1hr wait from ordering to delivery, even though the pub wasnt too busy and we had already waited in the garden for 45minutes for our table booking time.
If there had been service charge applied - I had my speech all worked out. There wasn't. Almost disappointed not to get to use it :-)
