About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
The Braunton Inn in Barnstaple is a country pub oozing rural charm and rustic character. Our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

Originally called Heanton Court, The Braunton Inn was an ancient manor house for distinguished families descended from King Edward IV. During the 19th Century, the great house began to be let out to farmers, its castellated towers making it one of the grandest farmhouses in North Devon. In the 1930's, pleasure flights to Lundy Island would land in the grounds.

With its imposing high stone walls and crenulations, there are few pubs grander than The Braunton Inn. We have fantastic views and walkers will be drawn to the Tarka Trail by the River Taw.

    We chose Heanton Court as we have been before and had a good experience. We arrived and ordered drinks and had a bit of banter with the bartender. We were shown to the table, we were given a good amount of time to choose our food. The waitress was very nice. We ordered one Salmon and three Steak pie, we waited approximately 30 minutes when she returned and advised us that the order hadn’t gone through mean time they only had two pies. We reordered and received our food. After the main we ordered one sweet and coffees, the sweet arrived within minutes, we waited another 15 minutes but no coffee, when I asked she had forgotten about them. She did apologise and didn’t charge for the sweet and one of the mains. Although she was very polite and apologetic it marred our evening which was partly for Mother’s Day, but mainly our son was returning to Chicago. We like Heanton and enjoyed previous visits, I would just like the waitress to be a bit more attentive. Sorry for the rant. Thank you.

    James looked after us, what a nice man! Four roast dinners, all very nice, the roast potatoes are Lovely. Good puddings, but it was the service from James which stood out!

    We had a very pleasant evening meal in comfortable surroundings. The Braunton Inn looks and feels special both from the outside and inside. It is in a very picturesque location and the building itself looks castle-like and individual. The menu had a wide selection of dishes and all reasonably priced. Staff members were friendly and welcoming. Two days later we returned for another meal and had an equally pleasant experience. A restaurant we would definitely recommend.
