The Halfway House is a place of individuality, character and hospitality where we enjoyed generous breakfasts and really good dinners. Our room was comfortable (and not over the bar), with a modern en suite bathroom. The only downside would be for people with limited mobility as access to guest rooms is up a steep flight of stairs. Kirsty, Lloyd and their staff are friendly and helpful and the pub bar is lively with lots going on, there is also a small lounge. Outside there is a bar and big tables and benches for the better weather in a big garden set amongst trees. The Halfway House has improved immensely since we lived in Polbathic 50 years ago, Kirsty and Lloyd have plans to make it even better. There is limited on road parking outside and a village car park diagonally across the junction. For electric car users, it's worth knowing that, just a few miles en route to the west country at Buckfastleigh is Strawberry Fields, just off the A38 a multiple rapid points charging station.

Highly recommend The Halfway House! Food, staff and owners are amazing. This is a proper ‘English’ pub with fantastic home cooked food and dog friendly!! Holidaying for 7 nights locally, we were recommended this pub. We popped in for a beer day one and felt very welcome so we booked the set dinner on NYE. Great night, although our 18 month old wasn’t happy. Kirsty the LL offered to take her for a walk so we could enjoy our meal. Visited again on New Year’s Day as the food was so good, this time we had the roast and again the chef smashed it out the park. The pâté & tomato chutney is incredible and the apple crumble was divine!! Great pub, lovely staff, decent beer and fantastic friendly locals! Thank you Lloyd and Kirsty for your hospitality!

Always a lovely welcome and really good food. The Sunday lunch is exceptional and the menu has ‘something for everyone’. A truly brilliant local pub with lots going on. What a asset to the village.

We booked a table at short notice, however got stuck as the road was flooded which took us forever to reverse all the way back up the lane! On arrival, the staff were kind and accepted our apology for the late arrival. Excellent service by all and the food was perfect! PS. The fish and chips is huge! But oh so, good!
