South Devon’s new place to eat

The Lobster Pod is a new bistro that has opened in Hope Cove. Situated overlooking the harbour and beach, it has spectacular views across Bigbury Bay and both indoor and outdoor seating. The latter include heated enclosed pods with comfortable seating and tables. There are also takeaway meals and the ability to purchase uncooked fish.

Open five days a week (closed on Monday and Tuesday until late September)

We have 4 bookable pods which accommodate from 8 to 10 persons depending on the pod. Bookings are for 1 hr 45 minutes at a time giving you plenty of time to finish your meal. For your comfort, the pods have heating and Bluetooth sound systems (and a telephone for requesting further drinks!)

Pods and tables are bookable but we have ample seating so feel free to pop in for food or just a drink. Unbooked seating is on a first-come-first-served basis.

Gift Vouchers: why not buy your loved ones a gift voucher (from £25) via ResDiary?
