About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Set at the end of a tranquil tidal creek on the Salcombe estuary, the Millbrook Inn is a hidden haven for those who enjoy good food, great wine and a pint of local ale.

The Millbrook Inn has a long-standing reputation as one of Devon's best gastro pubs. We take great care to source the finest local ingredients from land and sea, including from our own farm, and we prepare them simply and with love.

Our home - the idyllic village of South Pool – is easy to reach from Kingsbridge, Dartmouth and Totnes. When the tide is right, it’s only a short boat trip from Salcombe.

Whether by our homely fire or our babbling brook, we look forward to welcoming you to the Millbrook Inn very soon.

  • Three Bells Supper.

    £22.00 per person

    Multiple dates available
    On an ocean going ship, the ring of three bells traditionally signals 5.30pm. In the spirit of this grand seafaring tradition, the Millbrook Inn is offering its '3 Bells' set menu. Two courses, served from 5.30pm to 6.30pm, it's perfect for anyone who prefers to dine a little earlier in the evening. The set menu comprises a main course and a dessert and is priced at £22 per adult and £10 per child portion, with a third child eating free. Children must be under 12 and accompanied by 2 adults of the third one is free.

    Absolutely great experience - roast dinner was excellent, very nice wine, followed by live music in the courtyard. The ambience, cleanliness, nice toilets, and very friendly staff make it a venue to return to. It is the service that warrants mentioning too - as we had eaten in the restaurant the waitresses continued to bring us table service drinks when we moved to the courtyard to watch the music, a huge bonus as the bar was extremely busy and queues were long. Despite long queues, the atmosphere remained really upbeat and worth it. We had the most enjoyable afternoon and I highly recommend a visit to this pub - you will not be disappointed.

    Arrived early for Sunday Lunch to enjoy pre lunch drinks outside. Set lunch was very nice. During our meal an event commenced and the pub got very busy with drinkers. We felt neglected and service was non existent. We will avoid clashing with their events in future.

    A real gem, small intimate and full of character. A good range of local ale, lager and cider, well looked after. Friendly god humoured staff who despite being busy took the time to chat with their customers. The menu changes daily and although small focuses on great quality local produce, everything was delicious and very filling accompanied by a good choice of wine. Well recommend

    Originally put upstairs to dine with barking dogs and children running around . Asked to be moved back downstairs, we were found a table by an open door with a cold wind blowing in . We had to go to the car to get sweaters . Our wine arrived after we had finished our starter . Our main meal was cold in five minutes due to the draft . We had to listen to staff swearing and shouting at each other over a bell being rung . I could go on . I have been coming here for over twenty years , not anymore . Very disappointed.

    Had a few Sunday Lunches at the Millbrook.All have been excellent other than yesterday. My wife had the beef. I had the pork. We had to share the pork as the beef was too tough to even cut let alone chew. We were asked at a very early stage if the meal was ok and we said yes. When our dishes were being cleared we were again asked and we gave honest feedback. The young man serving us apologised.

    Went last year and had a great evening, so disappointed this time. Ordered Scotch and soda; received Irish. Long time to order and even longer for the food to arrive (more than 1.25 hours after our arrival). Hummus starter and lamb rump main were delicious, though Crème Brûlée was very runny. Wines very expensive. Lucky I checked the bill, as drinks from the next table had been added to our bill, inflating it by about £50. Hopefully our experience this time was a blip; maybe not enough staff for the high number of customers.
