The food and service is great and also child friendly even though it's high quality food! So that's also a big plus.Good selection of drinks (wish they did cocktails) but that's not necessarily for a country restaurant and just something I like personally. My in-laws go here all the time and we will also be back. Thank you for giving us such great experiences.

We found this place with a stroke of luck. My partner and I visited Crediton for a fishing weekend. We arrived a bit early, so we Googled places nearby to have dinner. We arrived at The Duck and were welcomed by very friendly staff, who engaged in small talk and made sure we were happy during our visit (perfect). The chef in that kitchen has passion, and it shows in the food!! Attention to detail in presentation, and the tastes were top marks!!! Thank you. This is a beautiful country pub, and this setting is transferred inside - a warm, relaxing place! Food: 5 stars Staff: 5 stars Venue: 5 stars. We enjoyed it so much that we went back after our fishing trip and before we went home. We eat out quite a bit, and places like this are hard to find... You will see us again. Thank you for a great evening (x2). Dane & Alice

We pre booked the duck Sunday lunch after reading such good reviews and sadly we were so disappointed by the dreadful plate of food that was served . Our lunch order was very late by an hour and then when served up it was then recognised as taken down wrong by the waitress who had equally got the drinks wrong . The roast loin of pork was basically a plate of fat with hardly any meet and because it was all served wrong became cold while waiting for friends order to be rectified. When the waitress came back to collect our plates she asked how our meal was and we said that the meat was dreadful and not impressed she then replied with jovial apology and said she would speak to the kitchen . On return she then proceeded to inform us in again a very jokey manner that the chef , her husband had said that in the winter pigs are fattened up . In response to this we then said we didn’t order a plate of fat and 2 of us are actually chefs . We didn’t expect anything but to be told in such a blasé fashion without any thought to the fact this meal was absolutely not up to standard and £18!!! For a plate of fat !!! Will not recommending ?
This pub & restaurant was the most incredible meal we’ve had in Devon, couldn’t recommend it more. The food was delicious and couldn’t find a single fault. Was very tasty and such good value for the quality they are serving. Staff were also lovely, had to come back multiple times!

We visited with my wife’s mother on a recent road trip in the UK and very glad we did. The food we had - fish n chips and a lamb dish - were simply amazing and great value. The whitebait starter was very good and the house ale was also great. Service was friendly and efficient and overall it is a lovely pub/restaurant and highly recommended.

The pub is located a 2 minute walk from Yeoford Rail station so is easily accessible from Exeter if you want to find an excellent country pub and don't want to worry about driving. We visited on Saturday for dinner. The pub itself is spotlessly clean and well decorated. The tables are nicely spaced apart so you don't feel as though you are encroaching on other guests conversations. The service was second to none and we were well looked after throughout our visit. The menu is based on local produce and the food quality was excellent, I had fillet of beef which which simply melted in the mouth. The food is well priced for both the quality and portion size and you won't leave hungry. There is an excellent drinks menu and again well priced. Well definitely return next time we are in Devon.

Lovely food and welcome. Delicious scallops and duck that were specials of the day. Couldn't fit in a dessert.Dietary restrictions: Really helpful and accommodating. Dairy and nut free. Fab as all cooked to order.
Pleasant staff. Good food, freshly prepared.
