Pressland House Country Hotel Menus
Examples of the Delicious World Cuisine at our Hotel in the Heart of Devon
The delicious food has an enviable reputation with residents and locals alike -
the dinner menu is changed daily.
All meals are freshly prepared, using the best, local ingredients wherever possible.
Although having clear English origins, the cooking carries strong French and
oriental influences. Breakfast, as the menu suggests, is also taken pretty seriously.
Your four course dinner menu commences with pre-dinner canapés to accompany
your drinks in the bar or garden and is likely to include some of the following
dishes, though the Chef is continuously adding new dishes to the repertoire,
concluding with a selection of English and Continental Cheeses, Coffee & Mints.
