The Cricket Inn

Devon, Kingsbridge - Modern British - Pub with Rooms - ££

Freshly landed local fish and seafood are the order of the day at this historic pub in the shore-side village of Beesands near Kingsbridge. Dating back to 1867 and claiming fame as the place where teenagers Keith Richards and Mick Jagger first performed together, it's now a capably run community asset.

Varied menu which changes from time to time but always supporting what they are known for. Locally sourced ingredients. Friendly staff. It is much more than a pub—it is a real hub for the community, raising money for charity and bringing people together throughout the year with street parties, music nights, winter quizzes, comedy evenings and other local events...

Fresh locally caught fish every day often from the bay right outside from small day boats. The food is always amazing such as scallops caught by local divers in Start Bay. The staff are always really friendly and helpful. A good selection of wines and South West beers such as Otter, and St Austell.

We had some fresh prawns for a starter and then the best fish and chips in Devon, I should know as I used to live in Whitby, they never fail to get the batter crispy, the fish as fresh as it can be and excellent tartare sauce.
