November…a month of more firsts for Molly, plenty of Xmas prep and a bit of the usual from us…what will December bring? Christmas fun, parties, mulled, live music, Christmas fayre, Christmas quiz, a mini darts tournament, charitable causes and our usual New Year’s party. Plus we are sure lots more! 😉😝@blackriverinn @fooddrinkdevon #pub #local #pubfood #food #anyexcuse #goodfood #localbusiness #westcountrytapas #smallplates #november #december #rurallife

As many of you know, we started a second business of a cafe. While this has been a lovely and popular venture; it’s been one hit with staffing issues and time (on our part). As such we have decided to sell on the lease. It pains us to do so, but we feel our personal time and time with the pub should take priority and that means sacrificing the time given to the cafe. This business opportunity is truly a turnkey operation, as we have done all the hard work in refurb only this year. Plenty of opportunity here for a management couple, friendship or family pair looking to go into business together. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you were at all interested. @theblackriverinn @fooddrinkdevon #cafe #localbusiness #localbusinessforsale #forsale #upforgrabs #supportlocalbusiness #opportunity #businessopportunity

Feed 4 for £25 is our family-friendly weekly set menu. Prices to benefit most budgets, and with the option of eat in or takeaway, it definitely offers a Thursday break from the kitchen for many of you. This week is a classic, favourite…butter chicken, rice and cauliflower bhajis. A few slots left. @theblackriverinn #feed4for25 #mealdeal #thursday #thursdays #thursdayvibes #thursdayisthenewfriday #food #foodie #goodfood #eatingout #eatingoutonabudget #midweekmeals
A day off; and we lucked out with the weather. Took M and M down to @lanhydrocknt for a fun day out. They are restoring their gallery; and it was just incredible and such a rare opportunity to see that sort of design, artwork and s up close (as they have a scaffolding up which allows you to get right up and close)….was such a rare and amazing thing to see. Plus the house and the amount you can walk around and see is well worth it. We will defo be back; perhaps with bikes to trial the cycle trails as well, or even with 🐕 and enjoy some@of the beautiful grounds. Highly recommend if you haven’t been…if you want company, we will defo go back. 👍#daysoff #halfterm #familydays #familydaysout #nationaltrust #conservation #conservingengland #autumnvibes #preservinghistory #estate #oldenglishestate #lanhydrock #lanhydrockhouse
