"Some of the nicest bread I have eaten. Lovely fresh cakes too. And I am particularly partial to the quiche which is certainly not stingy on the cheese!"

I don't get to Great Torrington very often, but when I do, I visit the Green Lantern. The last time I was there was a few years ago and it was quite by chance that we got our sandwiches and coffee there. Not only was the food excellent, there was plenty of it and I had to do a double take because the price was so reasonable. I went back there yesterday and the prices are still just as good and the food still just as excellent. I really should find more excuses to be in Great Torrington in search of food.
The food at this restaurant was decent and the prices were fair. However, despite there being only four tables (seating a total of 16 people), we were informed that we had to use the restrooms at the pannier market which was a 5-minute walk away in the rain. To make matters worse, the children at the table next to us, who were apparently related to the staff, were allowed to use the upstairs toilets. I also had children with me and was very disappointed by this lack of equal treatment.
I visited this charming cafe/bakery years ago for crumpets, but this time, we were in luck as it was the perfect time for coffee and cake. After enjoying two lattes, an Eccles cake, and a lemon tart, we left just as impressed as we were the first time. The prices were very reasonable and the cakes were delicious. The staff were also very friendly. I'm glad we decided to come back.
We stopped by for a quick meal and it looked like the only restaurant open in town on that Monday. One bonus was that they are dog-friendly. The menu was surprisingly extensive. We decided to try the cakes and scones. The only issue was that my scone fell apart when I tried to cut it in half. The scones were served with plenty of butter, cream, and jam. The service was excellent.
