Food & Drink
From town-centre pubs and Sunday carveries to the award-winning farmers’ market — where to eat, drink and shop local in Cullompton.
Cully punches above its weight for food and drink, with friendly locals’ pubs, independent cafés along Fore Street and some of Devon’s best produce sold direct at the farmers’ market. Opening hours change — it’s always worth checking before you travel.
Pubs & dining
The Weary Traveller
Family- and dog-friendly bar & grill on Station Road, just off M5 Junction 28 — known for its Sunday carvery, big beer garden with a children’s play area, live music and sport on the screens. thewearytraveller.uk →
The White Hart Hotel
A long-standing local in the heart of the town centre, serving home-cooked food every day — proper chips a speciality — with a lively live-music calendar and a Sunday carvery of its own.
Ripley’s at Padbrook Park

The Five Bells, Clyst Hydon
A much-loved thatched country inn in the village of Clyst Hydon, a short drive from town — a Culm Valley classic for a long lunch.
The farmers’ market
Cullompton’s farmers’ market fills the Bullring on the second and fourth Saturday of every month — seasonal produce, artisan bread, meat, cheese and more, sold by the people who make it. It’s one of the best ways to shop local in Mid Devon. See What’s On for more regular events.
Cafés, bakeries & takeaways
Historic Fore Street and the town centre are home to a changing cast of independent cafés, bakeries, takeaways and food shops — perfect for a coffee and a browse between the shops. Rather than risk an out-of-date list, we’d love the businesses themselves to tell us they’re here.
