Brookside restaurant in Bovey Tracey has been run by experienced, hands-on hospitality pros Robin Bean and Mark Riddick for nearly 14 years. Along with head chef Phil Brough and an expert team, they ensure visitors to Brookside enjoy only the best – a warm welcome, seamless service and delicious food made with local ingredients. Visit for breakfast and enjoy eggs Benedict or Royale, or perhaps a full English breakfast, which includes tea or coffee and toast for £8.25. For special occasions choose the Champagne breakfast. Otherwise, pop in for a coffee, a traditional cream tea or homemade cake in the comfy lounge, or relax in the pretty garden. Lunch is served daily from 11.30am until 3.30pm, and vegetarians, vegans and those with allergies are happily catered for. A varied specials menu invites you to select from fresh fish, roast lunches and homemade dishes, and the main menu includes sandwiches, baguettes, ploughman’s lunches and a good variety of light bites and larger salads.
