Restaurants near Buckfast Abbey

Loved everything about our time in Emilia, the food was exceptional as were the two front of house staff who managed the restaurant so competently throughout service. Highlights in no particular order: vermouth, ragu, pumpkin. Thank you so much

The only disappointment was that the rotisserie chicken was off, probably the main reason to visit the restaurant. However the food we did have was of a very good quality. Very good flavours, well developed. Overall a very enjoyable meal.

5 ladies out for a fabulous Christmas lunch. We all had different meals but all were delicious, never a disappointment here. I personally had steak & kidney pudding, veggies were perfect, for pudding it has to be ginger pudding with cream, amazing 😋 Very busy but relaxed atmosphere & staff very friendly & attentive. 5 stars well deserved 😊

Our first visit and what a superb find the Live & Let Live Inn has been. The meal was outstanding, the welcome warm and friendly. I can honestly say that I have never had such tender chicken livers and the Pork chop that followed was sublime. We have talked about our lunch constantly since visiting. The rice pudding is to die for. I recommend the Inn unhesitatingly and will book a table the moment that we return the area. Thank you for an exceptional meal.

A lovely independent restaurant with tasty food. The menu is compact but all delicious with a selection of small plates and a few mains. Wine selection and cocktails are good too. The owners are lovely and excellent hosts. Well worth a visit.
