Back in May we held another of our Local Food Heroes Suppers. Well attended by many regulars and new faces locally and as far as London. Our Food Heroes for the evening were Simon & Grania Philips from nearby Colleton Manor where they rear & show their fabulous award-winning heard of Red Ruby Devon Beef and sell boxes of their beef direct from the farm throughout the UK - www.colletonredrubydevon.co.uk Obviously their succulent beef featured on the menu for the evening along with some fabulous sea bass and many of the great spring vegetables we can enjoy in May; either cultivated or foraged from the wild. If you’d like to see the menu we served simply click through into our menu section. Our next Local Food Heroes Supper will be in October and we are already taking bookings so please contact us if you’re interested.

At the beginning of June we had our beautiful new beer engines installed by local craftsman Stephen Simmonds of Molland - www.stephensimmonds.co.uk  Stephen has already made some beautiful furniture for us and has now lent his hand to crafting a beautiful plinth of burr-Elm and contrasting handles of wood from oak, elm and pear. A great focal point for the bar and those who enjoy our excellent west country ales. 

We are now stocking Cornish Lager from Skinners of Truro. This lager has real flavour and Skinners knowledge of making beer is evident in the taste. This has proved itself as a very popular addition too.

There are some new dishes coming on the menu soon for the summer so please scan our online menus for the new dishes or simply come to the Grove and sample them.

The summer never seems complete without some Morris Dancing and this year is no exception. On Tuesday 22^nd June the Winkleigh & Borderline Morris will be here at the Grove. They’ll be dancing outside from around 8pm and then no doubt inside for a sing-a-long at the bar.
