Places To Eat

Lynmouth features plenty of places to eat, including two fish and chip shops, with cafés and pubs for all budgets and tastes.

Take the short walk up to Lynton to find
many other coffee/eating venues.

 Take the scenic walk to Watersmeet  for a snack/cream tea (4 mile round walk), or further on to the Rockford Inn (8 mile round walk) for a pub lunch.
