    A lovely warm welcome on a very cold Sunday evening. From the moment we stepped into The Thatch, we were impressed by the friendly, attentive staff. The orders were taken promptly, food arrived on hot plates, and it was delicious. We were asked if all was well - it definitely was. Plates cleared without fuss and sweets offered. Bill was very reasonable. Place was busy but staff were slick and professional.

    Service great. Roast arrived, all 4 beef luke warm at best - beef, pots, parsnip, carrot mash. Gravy on plated cold. Pots of Gravy warmer but nit hit enough to hear food. Server changed all meals immediately and new pots of veg, which is in addition to what's served. Played food warmer and acceptable but would still have preferred it hotter. Side veg in pots steaming hot. New jugs of Gravy warmer, could have been hotter again. Over all size of portion and quality of food was excellent. I've eaten roast there before and it's been great. Maybe having an off day. It was busy and tables turned over quickly but not full. Make the food hotter and would have been 5*. Would revisit.

    We have been excitedly waiting to return to Croyde and the Thatch. Amazing as always. My kids say it’s the best burger in the world ever!! I have to agree. How can a burger be this good. Thank you, we loved our return visit.

    Stayed over night in a room with en suite, the room was lovely and comfortable we would definitely stay again. We had food and drinks in the thatch everything we had was perfect, our breakfast on the morning was also great. The staff in the Thatch are really welcoming and very helpful. Julie and Stuart
