The
Old Smithy Inn
Our lovely local has very recently changed hands. The new owners, Jenny &
Richard, will no doubt be updating this page very soon so watch this space!
Real ales are from Sharp's brewery and include Anvil ale, a brew specially selected for The Old Smithy. Chefs Lee and Chris prepare a variety of interesting dishes made using quality locally sourced ingredients. Chrissy and Lee have set about restoring some character to this lovely thatched pub by using local artist's and photographer's work to decorate the walls and reintroducing roaring log fires.
The Old Smithy Inn was delighted to have won second place in the pub section of the North Devon Marketing Bureau's Food and Drink Awards 2006.
