Sportsmans Arms

Gorgeous, cosy pub with friendly staff and outstanding food...
We had the steak and ale pie, and the west country burger; and desserts, we had sticky toffee pudding, banoffee waffles and plum and apple crumble. We all enjoyed our food very much...
So glad it's local and I can visit more often.

What a fantastic pub! I was staying at Hillfield Village for a week away by myself where I came to the Sportsmans Arms 5 nights out of the 7. Everyone was so welcoming and even though the first night was busy with a large party of guests a table was found for me. The food is out of this world (the chicken dish was my favourite) and reasonably priced with big portions! The carvery was the best one I’ve ever eaten it was amazing. The open fire was fabulous and I loved the traditional feel of the pub. Jaime was lovely and took me back to Hillfield with Gemma (hope I remembered your name right!) on a couple of the nights and it was an adventure walking up with my torch :) Everyone was so friendly with Matt really going out of his way to be especially welcoming. The chefs are amazing and I really am missing coming up for my evening dinner. When I’m next in Dartmouth I will be back. Thank you to everyone for making my stay rememberable :D

such a lovely cosy pub, great for families or couples really lovely decoration inside with a log fire in the middle! we felt right at home when we arrived and wasn’t too busy at all which was a shock! food was amazing one of the best meals we’ve had in a while - the steak pie and venison with dauphinois potatoes were just perfect!! great portion sizes and really good value for money - think we spent around £55 for two of us for a main and drink each - and we shared a starter. Good selection of drinks would definitely return if in the area in the future! could not recommend more if you’re staying in dartmouth

Great pub and fabulous Sunday carvery, just like your own home cooked roast, plenty of it too. It's even better now they have put a proper door on the conservatory and have a heater blowing hot air, toasty warm. We love it because we can take our little dog with us and in the summer its great because the kids can play outside in the garden and the dog get a walk. The views are beautiful too and the flowers they have outside in the summer are absolutely gorgeous. 10 out of 10. Staff are all friendly and helpful and it's got a nice relaxing atmosphere 👌 What more can you want. Obviously it can get quite busy so best to book on a Sunday.

Great relaxing atmosphere. Staff are very helpful and even get the kids drinks out for them to choose from. Handy being right next to the road to Dartmouth. Massive car park that can accommodate cars with caravans. Perfect venue if you want to celebrate an occasion. Bus stop right outside. Huge beer garden with a decent children’s climbing frame with slide and tunnel and enclosed from the road.

Been here three times this week 1st off for some drinks and then Friday morning for breakfast and finally today for Tea. Absolutely amazing. If your in the area I would recommend stopping here. The food is amazing and the staff are lovely. Nothing is too much for them.

We popped into the Sportsmans on a weekday afternoon. It was a spontaneous lunch, unplanned!
The food was excellent, there was a warm welcome, and the open fire made us feel cosy.
There is plenty of space for diners and beautifully clean and tidy. Beer also excellent, thank you to the 'Sportsmans'

Absolutely amazing experience. 15 of us, 12 adults and 3 children descended here at 6.30 on a Saturday evening unannounced and they couldn't have been more helpful.

Have us our own little room and the service was 1st class from start finish. The food was hot, timely and very tasty. The desserts were lovely.

Highly recommended.

Spent a great evening here. We were a large group and they had no qualms about us pulling together two big tables. Decor is very cosy and we'll maintained. Carvery is front and centred setting the tone for your evening here. Food was very good. Waiting time wasn't overly long and all the staff were friendly. More than enough parking, which is a good thing as the location is a little bit out. Would definitely recommend if you're in the Dartmouth area.

Great food, service and atmosphere! Ticks all the boxes! Had to return the next day and enjoyed it as much as the first time.

One of the best. Good food with a range menu for breakfast. just right. Ice cream. Good service. Very clean. Big car park. Nice views. I recommend.

Lovely pub, friendly staff, visited on a family holiday. Dog friendly pub and lovely food, recommend the fish and chips and local ice cream. Lots of parking and room to sagely walk dogs iff needed.

The Friday breakfast is a must from 9am. Fantastic service and great breakfast. Highly recommend.

Had a really lovely pizza here a couple of weeks ago while we were on holiday. It was mid week so it wasn't busy and it was September. We've visited the sportsman's arm a few times when we've been in Devon and it's always been excellent. Nice staff and a relaxing atmosphere.

Top job.

Our car broke down, and we arrived just after the kitchen closed. The chefs still made us a great fish and chips, and one of the waiters drove us back to the place we were staying. Lovely pub, great staff and great regulars. Everyone really keen to help. Will def be popping back in next time we are down this way.

Good food for all ages. We had steak, the daily curry and pizzas and everything was excellent. We sat ourselves outside where there is a playground so the kids were entertained while we waited for the food.
Perfect place to have dinner after a full day in woodlands

Such nice and friendly staff and carvery is a big fat wow for me .. Terry and Keith always make you feel good and all the staff are great and nothing is too much trouble for them to assist you … well
Done guys you have a good team !!!

Brilliant food with a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and excellent service. I would highly recommend. We sat in the newly renovated marquee area!

Awesome carvery served till 8pm on Sunday! Plenty of room to squeeze in our party of 10. 😊
