The Smugglers Restaurant Ilfracombe Reviews
Lovely little seafood restaurant in the centre of town
Staying in Ilfracombe for a few days and this restaurant was recommended by the hosts of our B&B. Quirky decor and an inviting atmosphere and very friendly staff. We both had the fish platter which was first class. Please note - when I posted a p
Fabulous food
Second visit here, as visited this time last year. Food Stu pill as good as ever. Steak was beautiful. Sea bass also lovely white and fresh. Desserts also good. Service as quick as we needed, but only because we needed it to be.
Fabulous place to go for tea (evening meal) in Ilfracombe
Staying locally, we were advised to book ahead..no need! Walk ins welcome. Beautiful decoration, friendly pleasant staff, and the food was superb! Really enjoyed our meal and will visit again when we (hopefully) return to lovely Ilfracombe.
Half price or nothing
We ordered seafood platters for 2 of our party. They arrived with 2 fish dishes which we hadnโt ordered. They then 20 minutes later said the kitchen was closed and we could have the 2 meals half price or nothing. The fish was not good. It was a tru
Poor attitude to kids meals, average chips, good lobster.
The first downside was that they don't have any high chairs, not the end of the world, but not ideal. The lobster was great according to my girlfriend and the Chicken in peppercorn sauce was ok, but the chips were average at best and the worst p

Poor food!

Very tasty food.

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Smugglers Restaurant Ilfracombe at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Smugglers Restaurant Ilfracombe page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* GallantAnswer60, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* GallantAnswer60 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to GallantAnswer60 for any questions Peter may have as GallantAnswer60 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* GallantAnswer60 now uses their connections at The Smugglers Restaurant Ilfracombe to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If GallantAnswer60 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, GallantAnswer60 receives the $200 reward which is credited to GallantAnswer60's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Smugglers Restaurant Ilfracombe!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
