If you want a proper honest village pub then go here. They do not overcharge, are in no way pretentious and are not out to rip you off. Good beer and food like pub food used to be before everyone became a gastronaut. If you want restaurant food go down the road and help St Austell Brewery fill their coffers, if you want a village local pub experience go to the Fountain Head. All in my opinion of course.

An old-fashioned local pub that hasn't changed much over the last twenty odd years when I've occasionally visited it. The food is not fancy but very good, the locally brewed beer is excellent, and the staff are efficient and friendly. It really is like stepping back into simpler, more honest times. The parking's difficult though. (If you're heading out of Branscombe, you need to fork left before the pub and look for the modest parking area on the right just in front of the pub.)
