For an Afternoon/Evening Beer - The White Hart
johngayton Says: Bideford has a pleasant mix of pubs, something for everyone. My favourite is The White Hart. This, slightly off the main drag, little boozer is everything a proper pub should be. Good beer, friendly staff and always convivial company. If you want to hang at the bar you'll...
The Burton Art Gallery and Museum
johngayton Says: Arriving Bideford around noon on a stunningly beautiful November Thursday, having cycled down The Tarka Trail the 9 miles from Barnstaple, I decided to postpone that first beer of the day and just have a wander around the town itself and look at it thro' my "VT Eyes" (and my...

Silver Bridge House: Best Singapore Noodles In North Devon!
johngayton Says: The much-missed Pete McCarthy, in what I rate as the best travel book ever written - McCarthy's Bar ("Never pass a pub with your name on it"), uses the price of Singapore Noodles as his yardstick as to the economic development of a place.Me I use the quality of the Singapore...

Mr Chips: Best Fish'n Chips in Devon!
johngayton Says: Bideford has a couple of Fish'n Chip shops but to my mind this is the best, not just in town but in the whole County. From the time it opens (I think 5 pm) until late there's a constant stream of people coming and going.There's usually a bit of a queue but service is swift...
Honey Moon: OK The menu is huge and the name is naff but...
johngayton Says: Bideford, as with most small towns here in Devon, has its sprinkling of Oriental offerings. I haven't had a chance to sample them all here but I can sortof recommend Honey Moon.This is a smart-looking sit-down and take-away restaurant at the start of Bridgeland Street, just...
The Kings Arms: Proper Pub Food!
johngayton Says: This used to be a regular haunt of mine but this is the first time i've been back for 8 or 9 years and it was great to find that nothing has really changed (except for the abscence of the crazy beermat-retrieving collie). This really is a cracking little pub with excellent...
Go For A Few Beers Then Get Driven Home!

Bookends: For Your Lighter Reading
johngayton Says: Mill Street here in Bideford runs for a couple of hundred yards off the lower end of the High Street and is packed with little independent shops (45 at the last count). The shops range from traditional butchers and bakers to quite upmarket jewellers with pretty much...
I Hope This Is Just The Entrance!!
johngayton Says: North Devon was fortunately rarely targetted by the German bombers during the 2nd World War although South Devon, and in particular Plymouth, suffered regular raids - Bob Lock (cf www.bbc.co.uk/ww2peopleswar/stories/12/a4208212.shtml), an evacuee, does recall one particular...
