The Friendly Fork Kitchen

The Friendly Fork Kitchen operates out of The New Quay Inn, a traditional harbourside pub on New Quay Street in Teignmouth, right where the town meets the water. Rather than a separate restaurant, it is the kitchen inside a proper local pub, doing home-cooked food made from local produce to order rather than reheating from a chain menu.

The pub keeps long hours, open midday to 11pm most days, with the kitchen serving through the same stretch and live music laid on at weekends alongside the usual pub drinks. It is the kind of place locals treat as a fixture rather than a destination - good beer, honest cooking, and a bit of music to go with it, a short walk from Teignmouth's harbour rather than tucked away on a back street. Anyone after a full written menu is better off ringing ahead, since it tends to shift with what is in and what is fresh that week.
