Ted’s Home Smoked Ribs #tedsribs

If you haven’t tried them, you need too! Ted prepares and home smokes all the ribs served at The Olde Plough Inn. He’s promised to put a video on the website (we are still waiting for it!) so we can see how he does it. He uses his own ‘secret recipe’ and can often be found smokein’ if he’s not in the kitchen.

As a small, local village pub, we are proud to source our meat locally in and around Devon. We like to know where our food comes from and we like to be able to tell you as well. Ted’s Rib’s are unique to the pub and we are pretty sure you won’t find anything like them in the area.

Taste and see! #tedsribs

Thanks to all the lovely people who reviewed us xx

					  Entering The Olde Plough is like stepping back in time! Completely family-run, with hearty pub food and the patter of kiddies feet in the background. If you're looking for dog-friendly,... read more relaxed and a great burger or home-smoked ribs - this is the place to come. Tucked away in a tiny village with outstanding views, it's a hidden gem. Brilliant for families with kids or dog walkers in need of sustenance. There was great music playing and a bustling ambiance. Food is made fresh so if you're in a rush I would recommend booking when you have a little more time to spare. Expect to grab a drink and chatter while waiting for your food. Highly recommended spot!

					  We ate here 3 night on the trot. If only our local pub served such great food, with daily specials. Good selection of drinks. Warm welcome. Olde style feel about... read more the place. Fab beer garden. Very friendly staff. Perhaps a little TLC required in the loos but that's all. Dog friendly.

					  Finley was an outstanding barman/waiter! Such a polite young man. We had three roasts which were home cooked, lovely in fact. The Yorkshire pudding I have to say was better... read more than my home cooked ones. My son had the chicken burger, he said it was the best he had ever had! Say no more. If we holiday here again we will definitely re-visit.

Our Village & Our Family

Set in the Tamar Valley village of Bere Ferrers on the banks of the River Tavy, The Olde Plough Inn dates back to the 16th Century.

Once a humble collection of three silver miners’ cottages, the building became a pub in 1857 and is now cosy and full of character, with a wood-burning stove, exposed stonework walls, beamed ceilings and flagstone floor. Our beer garden overlooks the river, and the views are stunning!

Our pub is run by us! Ted, Sarah and our four children, Enya, Fin, Libby and Connie. Oh, and not forgetting our extremely important pub dog, Otis!

Running The Old Plough Inn is part of family life for us. Don’t be surprised if you pop in for a meal and one of our little one’s is scribbling away in the corner. We are part of the bussling village of Bere Ferrers who rely on our locals, dog walkers and regular vistors in the area to keep us going.

So, thank you for visiting the website. We’d love your feedback. Please write a review for us on TripAdvisor, tag us on instagram or just say, “Hi” when you’re passing through.

Much love, The Williams Family.
