🌿 WE SOURCE LOCAL 🌿

As an independent freehouse, choosing local matters to us.

Wherever we can, we source our food and drink from local producers, growers and suppliers - from the ingredients coming into our kitchen to the beers, ciders, spirits and soft drinks behind our bar. 🍺🍎🍸

Why? Because buying local means more than simply knowing where something comes from. It means:

❤️ Supporting local businesses and producers
👩‍🍳 Helping sustain jobs in our community
🌱 Reducing food miles and our environmental impact
🤝 Keeping more money within the local economy
🍽️ And, of course, serving great food and drink made closer to home!

You’ll spot plenty of familiar Devon names behind our bar, and our kitchen follows the same philosophy - local wherever we can.

We’re proud to be independent. Proud to support local. And proud to serve it to you.

The Holt, Honiton - local supporting local. ❤️
