"Fine dining in a pub atmosphere!" says the excited board outside, but it was better than I expected, with the bar counter to the left having a couple of bar hangers happy to comment on my bag full of local bottles from nearby Tantivy while I was trying to shoulder them out of the way to get a shot of the two available beers here. The right hand side was indeed pretty much full of fine diners, but in the absence of food smells I was quite content to consume my swift half of Dartmoor IPA 4.0% which was in good condition (NBSS 3.5), which is more than I can say for the wifi in the pub, hence my review being written up more than a week later. I was glad I came here rather than the GBG Bridge Inn, whose loud music from 30 yards away was enough to put me off. Woods gets the 7 rating that the Bridge might have otherwise got.

10/10 is a bit high for this converted bakery which now advertises itself as a Dining Room and Public Bar. There seems to be an emphasis on food; the menu appears to be tempting without being pretentious like lots of such places these days. Three St Austell Ales (slightly unimaginative)all from the barrel behind the bar: Dartmoor, Tribute and HSD. The Tribute was fine, but served in a Magners glass which I don't particularly like; I was drinking it at the tables outside and passers by may have thought I was drinking 'cider' from Ireland (which has such a tradition of producing the drink, doesn't it!).
The interior is comfortable with a log fire fashioned from a beer barrel and the usual dead animals and hunting scenes on the wall so favoured by folk from Exmoor.
