Set at the end of a tranquil tidal creek on the Salcombe estuary, the Millbrook Inn is a hidden haven for those who enjoy good food, great wine and a pint of local ale.

The Millbrook Inn has a long-standing reputation as one of Devon's best gastro pubs. We take great care to source the finest local ingredients from land and sea, including from our own farm, and we prepare them simply and with love.

Our home - the idyllic village of South Pool – is easy to reach from Kingsbridge, Dartmouth and Totnes. When the tide is right, it’s only a short boat trip from Salcombe.

Whether by our homely fire or our babbling brook, we look forward to welcoming you to the Millbrook Inn very soon.

    A Gem of Hospitality and Flavor :) Millbrook is a true standout in the local dining scene. From the moment you walk through the doors, you’re greeted with a warm and genuine welcome that sets the tone for the experience ahead. The hosting is impeccable, striking the perfect balance between attentive service and allowing guests to enjoy their meals at their own pace. Every dish on the menu speaks to the care and thought that goes into sourcing the finest ingredients. The seasonal offerings ensure that every plate is as fresh as it is flavorful, showcasing the best of what Fowlescombe farm and producers have to offer. Whether it’s a classic pub favorite elevated with a modern twist or a more adventurous special, the flavors are consistently impressive. The atmosphere is equally inviting, blending traditional pub charm with a touch of contemporary comfort. It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy a relaxed meal with friends or celebrate a special occasion. It sets a high standard for what a pub experience should be: exceptional food, outstanding service, and an unmistakable sense of hospitality. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates quality in every sense of the word.

    A professionally run and hospitable Gastropub with some interesting menu choices. Really enjoyed the complementary Bread and Beef dripping side. The food uses mostly local suppliers and is thoughtfully prepared and well presented. The price point is clearly targetting the well-heeled Salcombe set and although clearly this was once once a traditional village pub the atmosphere, decor and food is now more upmarket. A long and very enjoyable lunch at ~ £50 per head.

    Absolutely fantastic Sunday lunch with some of the best pork I’ve ever eaten. All of the accompaniments went great too. Service was perfect. No complaints anywhere.

    We had a fantastic experience at the Millbrook on a return visit. The staff were incredibly attentive and knowledgeable about their dishes, as well as being really polite and friendly. The food was excellent as always. Can highly recommend all round. Thank you to the Millbrook for a lovely evening.

    Disappointing. Very favourable reviews and publicity but we found the food very disappointing. Charcuterie starter was good but mainly course of hoggett was quite tough and very fatty. Vegetables were good. Chocolate tart dessert was good but Panna cotta was tasteless and firm. We said to the waitress it was inedible but received no apology or offer of replacement. We asked if the chef had been told and we were informed to hat "there was something wrong with the fridge"! The cost of the pudding was included on our bill until we complained. Lovely setting but we wouldn't go back.
