Absolutely Amazing Toastie, my wife & I bought some fish from Devon & Cornwall fish Co and my wife made a remark about needing some nice bread to go with the Crab meat she bought from them. The guy recommended going to John’s of Instow and now I am recommending them! I bought a Sourdough bloomer and 2 pulled pork and Emmental cheese toastie and WOW absolutely delicious!! I would definitely make a special journey back up to Instow just for another sandwich 👍😋💯

A fabulous evening all round. A great bunch of people, Lauren was a wonderful host and Clare a superb, patient artist. We were both so happy with our first ever watercolour paintings. Thank you

A dog friendly cafe where we decided to have breakfast as it started pouring with rain. We came in the dog entry door and we’re sat down with menus, we ordered breakfasts and we’re not disappointed, two of us had the veggie stack. On the menu it said it came with spinach although there wasn’t any, however I was offered extra mushrooms as I do not like avocado. My mum ordered a poached egg with hers and she was happy as it was perfectly cooked and still runny in the middle. My dad ordered a bacon and sausage sandwich and was happy with it too. The dog entry door seemed to be locked and the staff had to let people in, it wasn’t great considering the weather but apart from that no complaints. The staff were friendly and attentive and we had a little nosy around the shop after picking up a few treats as we left.
