Rest & Be Thankful Inn

Had a quick lunch here today (small chicken, ham and leek pie, and some veg. Food fine. But I paid £27 for the food, an alcohol-free beer, and 2kWh of electricity. The latter cost £5! Great that they have a charger, but it's only worth paying if you are staying and charging overnight, as it only charges at 4kW.

I was working 20 mins and stayed here all week. Rooms were great, though shower was a little claustrophobic. Really enjoyed every meal, nothing too fancy just good honest food which was always delicious, great breakfast too and the owner was very accommodating letting me have early brekkie, which was much appreciated, thanks to the chef!

Didn't stay on a room but went for a meal I had chilli with nachos which was really nice( too many nachos) but I ended it. My other half had Pork loin steak with sage and onion sauce and vegetables which he enjoyed. We had puddings sticky toffee pudding and profiteroles which also very nice. Service was good and the atmosphere

We came for Sunday carvery for my mums 94th birthday. What a lovely pub ! The staff couldn't do enough for us and looked after us wonderfully . But the star was the food ! Perfectly cooked meat and more fresh vegetables than I've ever seem and a choice of delicious gravies . Nothing out of the freezer or a packet here! I had the nut roast which was really tasty. We will be back !

Absolutely cracking carvery, the beef just melted in your mouth. The owner and staff couldn’t do enough for us, asking after each course if the food was ok, they need not ask because the food spoke for itself.The staff where very polite but also had a great sense of humour. The owner went out of his way to make sure we had good time.

We happened to be in the area and fancied dinner. The staff could not have been more welcoming. The food was delicious and we were made to feel at home. We can't wait to go back, particularly to try the carvery on Sunday. Considering the lovely welcome we had we would like to stay at the Rest & Be Thankful so it and Wheddon Cross are now on our favourites list.

My favourite place on Exmoor .always a warm friendly welcome from Derek and the staff. A very good choice on menus and food is delicious. I've been there many times alone and with friends can't recommend this place enough.

Brilliant location with friendly staff. Recreation park next door if you want to let your children or pets have a break. I've stopped there a couple of times on my travels, although I have yet to pop inside. Highly recommended and big thanks 🙏 Stuart photos to follow
