Best Sunday Lunch Restaurants in Sidmouth

Booked a table on OpenTable for 4.30 for my wife's birthday. Booked an early time because it was given as an option by OpenTable and the weather forecast was for snow. We arrived at 4.15 and found that the restaurant was not supposed to open for service until 5pm. Bobby the barman and Josh the chef made us very welcome and opened early for us. We enjoyed a lovely meal, complete with candles to celebrate the occasion! Thank you Bobby & Josh. Great customer service by both of you!

Both the initial greeting and the service during the whole meal were of an impeccably high standard. Together with the delicious food, it made for a hugely enjoyable meal.

We booked to meet some friends with none of us being local to the area. We were welcomed warmly even though not regulars. The atmosphere was pleasant and really festive. Service was quick and very pleasant and professional. Food arrived quickly and was hot, good quality and as described on the menu. Likewise paying was quick and easy. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Thank you to all the staff at the Greyhound. We hope to visit again soon.

We were a family group of six. It was a nice Xmas feeling with the people around us. The food was just ok, some of the group enjoyed all the courses but majority thought it was very average for the money we paid. Service was very good, servers were cheerful and obliging. We did enjoy ourselves and there was plenty to eat. Was it value for money ? Not sure but you have to pay a lot extra when people work on Xmas day.

Visited the Balfour on Sunday with my wife and with my sister. We each opted for a starter, Sunday roast and a pudding and all three courses were absolutely outstanding. Never been here before but absolutely will come back again. Best roast I have had for years. Decent price, and really good, friendly atmosphere.
