A Devon country pub where the kitchen forages, ferments, and smokes most of what ends up on your plate. The menu reads like a walk across the local landscape, duck fat hash browns alongside venison "sausage" and pickled walnut, with real ale treated as seriously as the food. A monthly communal supper packs strangers around the same table for three family-style courses, which is either your idea of heaven or the reason you book early to avoid it.
