Here you can share views and comments about the pub and it's beer, and we'll let you know about which beers we have and what events are upcoming. The stonemasons responsible for the construction of Exeter Cathedral may have lodged here. The present building you see is substantially 16th Century, but the actual date of the different parts varies considerably. Unlike today, much building in the past

was piecemeal, with new rooms added as necessary. Most of the fabric is local stone, but the old brewhouse at the rear is traditional Devon cob. This has the remains of the hop drying floor, and is adjacent to a large brewing chimney. Great-grandfather was William John Gibbings from Clyst St. George. He moved into the Inn in 1897, and our family has been there ever since. The current licensee is Caroline Cheffers-Heard, his Great Grand-daughter. She is the fourth generation, her daughter Riannon will be the fifth, and Amelia, born in April 2008, will be the sixth generation. The Bridge has a long history of promoting real ale. Ales from local breweries and particularly famous or select ales from the rest of the country are always available, although the actual list varies from week to week. There are usually up to ten real ales available.

We are thrilled to have Rowan Stuart Music here at The Bridge Inn, Topsham, Rowan is an amazing singer songwriter and not to be missed.
Wednesday 1 July 2026
7.30pm, doors 7pm
Tickets are £16 per person and are available at https://thebridgeinn.littleboxoffice.com/

Originally from South Africa and now based in Devon, Rowan Stuart creates atmospheric alternative music that blends soulful, expressive vocals, rhythmic guitar work, organic-electronic grooves, and cinematic atmosphere.
His songs move between intimacy and expansiveness, where earthy rhythm meets ethereal atmosphere - exploring themes of distance, belonging, imagination, melancholy, and quiet hope.
Performing with Exeter-based musicians Mattie James on bass guitar and Mitch Pike on percussion, Rowan’s live shows build from reflective stillness into immersive emotional release, creating an experience that feels intimate, atmospheric, and deeply human.
Rather than offering escape, his music finds moments of beauty, movement, and connection within the tension of real life.
