Once owned by celebrity chef Keith Flloyd, this traditional and pretty establishment is bursting with character and boasts a wonderfully friendly atmosphere to match. Serving mouth-watering home cooked meals, you can easily lose your afternoon here by the water with a pint of your favourite ale.
In one of the most idyllic settings in the South Hams is The Maltsters Arms, perched right on the the water’s edge. Step through the doors and enjoy the traditional pub ambience and décor matched with a welcoming vibe. During the warmer seasons, the quayside is full of life with both locals and visitors, enjoying the pub’s waterside terrace, along with live music and mooring boats. Sit back and soak in the sunshine with one of the local real ales on offer or perhaps peruse the wine menu for something special.
Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner; there is something for everyone on this menu. All carefully created with local and seasonal produce, you can tuck into a variety of traditional favourites, however a stop at The Maltsters Arm isn’t completely unless you try one of their delicious seafood dishes.
