RESTAURANTS AND PLACES TO EAT

There is plenty of choice when it comes to eating out in Bideford and the surrounding area. From Pubs to Bistros and A La Carte to Carvery, you will hopefully find what you are looking for. Some venues are small and intimate whilst others are big and bustling.

The list is divided into locations with useful information about the distance from the hotel. Some venues can be reached on foot – a pleasant walk along the river to the quay. Others are a short drive away and well worth the extra distance. We can recommend good reliable taxi companies if necessary.

The list is extensive but not exhaustive.
