Very disappointed.
The Staff at Compton Castle recommended going over for a drink and something to eat.
We wish we hadn't.......
There was no warm welcome when we entered the Property.
We ordered a Hot Chocolate and a Latte.
The Lady told us which room was warmer as the heating was on.
This room was next to the Toilet which had an awful smell coming from it.
The room was dull and lifeless.
After a bit of a wait the drinks arrived......
The Chocolate was nothing special.
The sugar was hard inside the packet.
The Latte was the worst one we'd ever had.
Hardly any head of milk and the milk was burnt making it undrinkable.
We told the Lady and she didn't seem to believe us but did say she would make another.
This arrived just with a cup but no saucer.
No real apologies and no Customer care by coming back and asking if everything was okay.
Will bring our own drinks next time we go to the Castle.
Wonderful family run tea room / cafe set in a beautiful setting, with lovely gardens & outside seating overlooking the woods and countryside around Compton Castle. The cakes and drinks were perfect on our visit, the people serving were friendly & welcoming and the interior was a traditional English tea room decor, timeless and charming in it's own unique way. Recommended to call in at especially if visiting Compton Castle across the road.
Delightful afternoon at Castle Barton Restaurant. A quirky 'grandma's dining room' vibe and delicious food at a very reasonable price. Will be heading back there very shortly to enjoy another chocolate roulade with real clotted cream, though the brie & tomato brushetta and game pie were just as good!
This is an interesting and forgotten place. Quite near the main roads of Torquay. I really enjoyed the countryside around here and the castle which has link's to sir Walter Raleigh. I did not go into the castle as was outside opening hours. Castle is still resided by a family. Unbelievable this is so close to Torquay ????.
If you want superb home cooked food in a family, homely atmosphere then this is 100% recommended. Been going here for about 30 years. Food 5* home cooked and their deserts are to die for????.
Enjoyed an absolutely delicious Devon cream tea here on a rainy afternoon (would have been lovely to sit out in the garden on a sunny day). Good, friendly service too. This place is perfect for refreshments or something more substantial if you're visiting the NT's Compton Castle, which is just over the lane and doesn't have a tea shop or kiosk. It is old fashioned inside but don't let that put you off!
Great find. Really lovely family run restaurant. Set in beautiful surroundings. Outside and inside seating available. Bit of a climb up steps and a slope to get to it but well worth it when you see the beautiful listed building. There is also a holiday home attached to the restaurant. Sit and enjoy your meal whilst listening to the local wildlife, what could be better than that. ????????????????????☘️????⚘️????????????????
It's an 80s menu prepared by someone who knows what they're doing, much of the menu is prepared in house. Service is a little slow but polite and professional. Sensible prices. There is a lovely garden if the sun is out.
