The Plymouth Stable

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Plymouth’s Barbican at 90 Little Vauxhall Quay, The Plymouth Stable is a standout destination for pizza lovers and cider aficionados alike. This charming pizza restaurant and takeout spot masterfully blends inventive flavors with a welcoming atmosphere, making it an ideal choice for relaxed meals whether you’re catching up with friends or seeking a comforting solo treat.

The culinary vibe at The Stable is anchored by its exceptional range of pizzas, each crafted with generous toppings and a perfect crust that strikes a delightful balance between crispy edges and a soft, chewy center. Noteworthy offerings such as the Blazing Saddle Pizza deliver a fiery kick, while the Lamb Pizza and Hazelnutter Pizza invite you on a journey of unique, mouthwatering taste profiles that linger long after the last bite. For those who prefer a plant-based or allergen-friendly option, the restaurant truly shines — with standouts like the Allo Aloha Vegan Pizza and thoughtfully prepared gluten-free crusts, ensuring that no one misses out on indulgence. The attention to detail, such as color-coded pizza slicers for gluten-free orders, highlights The Stable’s genuine care for diverse dietary needs.

Beyond pizza, The Plymouth Stable’s menu skillfully balances indulgence with freshness—you can complement your meal with the tangy brightness of the Cider Tasting Board or the crisp, satisfying bites of the Vegan Share Plate. Salads like the Sooper Dooper Salad and sides such as Garlic Bread with Vegan Cheese offer flavorful contrasts to the richness of the cheese-laden mains. And no meal here is complete without a decadent dessert—treat yourself to the Jammie Dodger Sundae or a rich, fudgy Chocolate Brownie that truly rounds off the dining experience.

The drink selection is equally compelling, showcasing an impressive lineup of regional ciders including Cornish Orchards and Healey’s Rattler, alongside a curated list of beers like the smooth Big Drop Lager 0.5 and the aromatic Graffiti IPA. The staff’s enthusiasm for these local beverages adds an informative and personal touch, elevating every sip.

Diners frequently praise the warm, unpretentious atmosphere of The Stable. The outdoor terrace, overlooking the picturesque Barbican harbour, is a particular highlight—offering a serene and scenic backdrop that enhances every meal. Customers like Graham North and Michele Holmes Fryett recount memorable evenings basking in the shaded terrace’s charm, paired with light, refreshing ciders and hearty pizzas brimming with quality ingredients. Likewise, the attentive and friendly service, frequently mentioned by guests such as Rue and Kaci Gadd, creates a relaxed and inviting environment that welcomes return visits.
