The Angel - Menu

Had a brilliant meal and lovely service absolutely excellent this is a must for anyone visiting Ilfracombe.

An absolute gem of a place in Ilfracombe. Service was second to none, food absolutely delicious, the whole evening was perfect. Booking is essential!

This restaurant is a ‘hidden gem’ in North Devon. We were a group of 11 so had booked well in advance with menus pre-ordered. We weren’t disappointed. The food was all hot and just amazing. Carole is a fabulous chef and her assistant so helpful. This restaurant gets booked so booked up, but it’s worth the wait.

Only open on Friday Saturday this restaurant is a gem. Run by 2 ladies one the chef and one front of house. I can only say that we felt blessed to have found this restaurant. The welcome put us at ease and we ordered drinks. My starter of fish mousse was fantastic, both main courses were a delight and my wife enjoyed her desert, also of a really high standard. The Chablis at £25 was a real bargain. This is a wonderful restaurant and Ilfracombe is very lucky to have it. The value for money was amazing.

Took us a long time to get booked in to The Angel. But my was it worth it. Lovely cheese,leek and mushroom for the wife. A mussel,mushroom crumble in a cheese sauce as a starter. Mains was lamb chops, cooked to perfection, loads of roast potatoes and veg. Too much for one but ha ho!! My wife had fish stew which she said was gorgeous. For a pudding my wife had the ginger pudding with brandy and caramel sauce. I had no room!!!! Had to book now for next year that’s how popular this small family run restaurant is. Brilliant

We were greeted by the understated background music and one of the hosts taking are coats and seeing us to are table for 5 , We were served water ,informed of the specials and given our menus, I had the prawn ,mussels and mushrooms with a bread roll, scrumptious ,then what followed was my choice Venison, delicious , After that I divided into the bottle of Rioja red wine , very tasty, to finish , I chose the ginger pudding with the caramel sauce, finished off with an Irish coffee, Everything Divine. We will be back when can get a table.

We had been trying to go to this restaurant for quite some time but it is always fully booked. It is only open on a Fri Sat so it is no surprise really We had a lovely evening at this quaint, very charming restaurant with friendly staff and a lovely choice of menu from meat to fish to vegetarian. I had the fillet steak and my husband the pork tenderloin. It was cooked to perfection with accompanying roast pots a nice selection of veg. The staff were so friendly accommodating, nothing was too much trouble at all the service was superb. We will definitely be back. Thank you for a lovely evening

A first trip to the Angel given the closure of a number of Ilfracombe's best restaurants. Very good food provided at unbelievably low prices. Starters which usually cost close to £10 are nearer £5. Likewise our main consisted of two delicious sea bream (two each) for £12 each, whereas we would expect to pay about £20 plus each. An excellent bottle of Chablis was £25 whereas again we normally have to pay more than £40. At these prices and quality the Angel is not surprisingly fully booked for many weeks ahead. So if planning a trip to Ilfracombe book early. Only opens on a Friday and Saturday evening.

I booked this almost 3 months in advance, for our wedding anniversary and i have to say, it was well worth the wait. The service was understated but very efficient and the food was sublime. We had a beautiful Chablis with our meal, very well priced. My husband had a ‘delicious’ seafood starter and i had a well seasoned prawn crumble, both arrived at the table fresh from the oven and the accompanying toast and bread were still warm. We both chose lamb cutlets for our main and they were fabulous. Tender and perfectly cooked (pink) and the accompanying vegetables were red hot, perfectly cooked and beautifully seasoned. I didn't have room for a dessert, but my husband pronounced his ‘absolutely...
