I had thought to go into the Union Inn at Waterside, near the end of the walk, but have found out it closes at 9pm on Thursdays. So won't suit us.  However,if wished, at the end of the walk we could sit by the picnic tables, at the Tamar Bridge car park,with our own drinks/ snacks and admire the view from there.
