About the restaurant

Nestling beside Seaton green and just 50 yards from the beach, The Smugglers Inn is a family and dog friendly pub that prides itself on offering a traditional selection of classic pub fayre, cooked by our enthusiastic team of chefs, using locally sourced ingredients wherever possible.

Along with the classics, we have a continually updated Specials Board where our chefs love to show their flare and creativity.

The highlight of our culinary week is undoubtedly our Sunday Carvery. Routinely described by our regular customers as ‘The best roast in the area’, with a selection of 4 roast meats, crispy roast potatoes, an amazing selection of 7 vegetables, plus homemade Yorkshire puddings and gravy, it is a truly sumptuous feast to end your week!

Vegetarians are also well catered for, with many of our dishes available with a vegetarian option, including our carvery which comes with TWO homemade vegetarian choices – a delicious nut roast and a vegan lentil roast.

We visited at a Sunday lunch time. Three of us had the carvery roast, one the specials board Hunter's Chicken and one a half chicken roast and I am pleased to say all 5 plates were completely cleared by us all. The food is excellent and the staff are so willing to meet any requests if they are able to. Great atmosphere, friendly and efficient service fron arrival to bill settlement. We just loved Seaton Beach when we first visited some 20 years ago but it will not be that long before we visit again and of course, we will have lunch (or dinner) at The Smugglers Inn. Thank you to all the team for looking after us so well.

Great staff, laidback hobo vibe. Food great value for money and great quality. No hassle with us changing from indoor booking to outside. Breezy from the sea but nice. Worth the drive up the narrow road to the free car park.
