About the restaurant

A gentle salt-air breeze drifts through the open windows at The Angel, where the rhythm of the tides seems to echo the restaurant’s quietly assured approach to Modern British cuisine. Under the stewardship of chef Elly Wentworth, this Devon dining room has become a place in which seasonal British ingredients are met with meticulous craftsmanship and contemporary technique—qualities noted in the Michelin Guide. What distinguishes The Angel is not only a commitment to locality but a precise balancing act between the familiar and the inventive. Each course speaks with clarity, evidencing a careful layering of textures and restrained flavours that encourage pause and appreciation. The food does not shout for attention; instead, there’s a quiet confidence in the way a piece of perfectly cooked seafood, perhaps sourced from the nearby coast, arrives adorned only with what it requires—never more. Across the menu, the influence of Devon’s larder is unmistakable, yet any risk of rustic cliché is artfully sidestepped. Vegetables arrive at peak freshness, their natural qualities elevated rather than obscured; proteins reflect an allegiance to regional sourcing and are handled with precision. The presentation, while elegant, resists unnecessary flourish—here, visual impact serves only to heighten anticipation for the first forkful. There’s a sense that every element, from a delicate garnish to the primary components, has been considered for both aesthetic and flavour, resulting in plates that evoke both comfort and intrigue. Décor and ambiance play their part in the overall experience, with the restaurant’s riverside position granting a tranquil outlook and a palpable connection to the landscape that informs much of what appears on each plate. Large windows frame the ever-shifting light over the water, underscoring the interplay between place and palate. The space remains understated, drawing focus to the food itself and the subtle theatre of a kitchen in step with the seasons. At The Angel, Modern British cuisine finds a voice that is measured yet progressive, where respect for heritage sits alongside a willingness to push boundaries. What emerges is a dining experience rooted in its Devon setting, but always poised to reinterpret the familiar in ways both thoughtful and quietly original.
