Lee's Bar

Lee's Bar is a seaside pub at 12 Mount Pleasant Road in Dawlish Warren, about 500 metres from the train station and built around the kind of extended bar layout that suits a big evening crowd - fruit machines, a pool table and a skittle alley alongside the main room. It is a cask ale venue that regularly pours St Austell Tribute, a 4.2% session pale ale, and keeps three Sky Sports screens running for football and rugby, which makes it one of the go-to spots in the village for watching a match. There is a real fire for the colder months, a garden for the warmer ones, and the pub is dog-friendly with level access to the bar.

It is a seasonal operation, open through the spring and summer and closed over winter in step with Dawlish Warren's holiday-town rhythm, running noon to midnight daily while it's open. On-site parking and nearby camping make it an easy stop for people staying at the Warren rather than just passing through, and reviewers single out the entertainment and food alongside the pub-standard welcome from a small, well-run local team.
