Service with a smile, prompt & attentive without being pushy. Because of timescale we were only able to visit once, wish we could have returned but there's always a next time.I believe no matter what you order your not going to be disappointed, we certainly weren't. The menu isn't extensive but ample, you know whatever you order is freshly cooked & delicious. I gave 4 star simply because the decor could be improved.

The Globe Inn - where great food, good ales, local cider and friendly service is our passion. Children, muddy boots, wet dogs and their well behaved owners are always welcome.

My wife and I visited North Devon for the bank holiday weekend and chose to spend all 3 nights here. Jimi and Sam were fantastic hosts and nothing was too much trouble. They recommend things to see and do and made us feel very welcome throughout our stay.The room was spotless and we loved the decor. The bed was large and very comfortable and the big rainfall shower was superb. Breakfast was made to order by Sam and was stunning. I could tell the food was fresh and locally sourced. My wife is a vegetarian and was delighted with the variety and quality of vegetarian options.We ate dinner here twice and both times we were blown away by the quality of the food, particularly considering how well priced the menu is. We tried the burger, steak, veggie chilli nachos and pulled pork, all of which were excellent quality and well cooked. My wife has family in North Devon who joined us at the Globe for dinner on Sunday and loved it. I think they may become Sunday regulars.The pub itself is what I would call a proper pub. The locals are friendly and up for a chat and Jimi's knowledge of beer is very impressive. They had a range of craft beers so I told him the kind of beer I liked and he recommended a few which all went down well (probably too well). The gin and rum selection was also very enjoyable. My pregnant wife was also impressed with the range of non-alcoholic beers and fizz. The music in this place is a other big positive for me. Jimi and Sam are clearly music lovers and have an awesome selection of vinyl. We enjoyed Bowie, Led Zep, The Hold Steady and Mansun.On our last night we took part in the pub quiz. The atmosphere was buzzing and we enjoyed the banter with the locals. The location was perfect for us too as we were able to get to Exmoor, Bude, Westwood Ho! and Dartmoor over the weekend.It's fair to stay we loved everything about our stay here and will certainly be back when we next visit Devon.

Took my dad here yesterday lunchtime. Heâd been a number of times before, but my first. A nice welcome banter from the jovial barman/owner. We ate in the bar. Both had starters and main courses from a short menu which had something for everyone. All were fresh, tasty and good portions. The ham hock terrine and the scotch egg starters were particularly good. Cost was reasonable for the area. I would definitely recommend and would come again.Dear Peterj2010Thank you for your lovely review of The Oxenham Arms South ZealWe are so pleased that your Father and yourself enjoyed lunch. We have a completely different menu for evenings of course so hopefully one day you may come and try our evening menu either in the bar or restaurant.Thanks again !Lyn and Simon PowellThe Oxenham Arms South Zeal
