Restaurants in Ashburton

A Michelin Bib Gourmand holder in a former Ashburton bank, Emilia runs a daily-changing Italian-inflected menu with in-house pasta and a considered regional wine list. At ££, it delivers Ducksoup-pedigree cooking in a relaxed, small-room format. Easy to book and worth making the trip for.

A Michelin-recognised French bistro in the heart of Ashburton, Le Vin Perdu delivers classic cooking — pork terrine, rotisserie chicken, tarte Tatin — at a ££ price point that makes two consecutive Michelin Plates feel like genuine value. From the same team behind Emilia next door, it's the most reliable French room in Devon at this price tier. Book ahead in autumn and winter; hours are limited.
