About the restaurant

The Rock Inn is a friendly 17th Century Inn in Georgeham, and boasts five cask marque real ales, and an extensive wine list. Our fantastically fresh food is cooked with passion and flair, and is served either beside our cosy fireside bars or in our bright and airy conservatory.

About the restaurant

Welcome to The Swan Inn.

The Swan Inn, Noss Mayo is the perfect resting place after spending the day on the water or walking round the many local coastal paths.
We are a small family run pub set within the village of Noss Mayo.
We believe in serving fresh local food and drink, great service, in comfortable environment.
Come and enjoy a local cask ale and locally sourced produce, sitting in one of the most relaxing, beautiful places in Devon. We are dog and family friendly.
Being such a small, but very busy pub our storage is limited which means we always have a small menu. This does however mean that we have daily deliveries of fresh produce. Our fresh fish is delivered daily from Rex Down, Plymouth Fish Market, and our meat is supplied fresh every day by Gribbles, suppliers of the very best butchery the South Hams has to offer.
We pride ourselves on offering great alterative dishes for those with special dietary requirements, ensuring that there is always a great choice for everyone.

About the restaurant

At The River Shack we are not interested in fuss or formalities, we simply want to provide you with delicious food and drink in a relaxed and beautiful setting.

You can dine right by the waters edge on sunny days, shelter in our waterside marquee on rainy ones, or relax by our log burner inside on the cooler days.

The views in themselves are worth the trip, but wait until you try the food! Our menus are creative, seasonal, rustic and delicious.

Along with the rest of our fantastic team, we look forward to meeting you down at the creek!

Authentic and delicious Thai food. You can request mild-hot heat levels for each dish if spice isn’t your thing. A point to note: we found that portions are on the large side. Along with 2 starters and Thai crackers, 4 of us ordered a dish with rice each and could easily have shared a main between 2. We all left quite a bit which hate doing - no room for dessert either!

Step into the River Cottage Café

Tucked just inside the entrance to our site, the River Cottage Café is a cosy, dog friendly spot to pause for breakfast, lunch or something sweet. Set above our award winning Cookery School, it’s perfectly perched to take in sweeping views across the Axe Valley.

Our ever-changing seasonal menu celebrates the best organic produce from our farm and trusted local growers. Expect fresh, thoughtful dishes, great coffee and a laid-back welcome.

While you’re here, take a moment to browse our book nook, where you’ll find a full collection of River Cottage books to enjoy with your lunch or a slice of cake.
On select evenings, we host ticketed Dining Feasts in our threshing barn at the bottom of the hill. So if the café appears open but no tables are available to book, it may be in preparation for one of these events.
