Nice, cosy pub with comfy seats. The staff are really friendly, which makes it a relaxing spot for a drink.

Staff were very friendly, especially with our dog. The chef even came out to greet him personally. Service was prompt and efficient. Good spot for a quick, relaxed lunch.

Iain was a great server, really on the ball. My burger and chips arrived super fast. Tasted good, no complaints. Perfect for a quick lunch break.

Been coming here for years. The veggie options are solid. Had the Ragara Pattice to start and the Palak Cootu Curry. Both were tasty, decent portions. It&#39;s reliable.

The staff were so lovely and attentive. Our waitress was particularly kind, which made the whole evening really pleasant.

Had the meatball tagine for lunch. Came out bubbling hot, rice was spot on. Decent service, nice vibe. Good for something a bit different in town.

The little one&#39;s ramen was a hit, honestly. Just the right size for them, and they actually ate it all. The menu for kids is pretty decently priced too.

The tasting menu at Stage is a delightful journey, with each dish beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The homemade cloud bread and French onion soup were standout highlights!

A proper local pub, no frills. The beer is kept well, which is the main thing. Had a decent pint of bitter. It&rsquo;s a friendly spot for a quiet drink.

This is the jewel in the Wetherspoon&rsquo;s crown. If you don&rsquo;t know about Wetherspoon&rsquo;s pubs, restaurants and hotels, they are budget friendly,  no frills establishments many in repurposed banks, shops, high street offices etc. This offering in Exeter is a little different though. The setting, in quite extensive well maintained gardens, is a large old house that used to belong in turn to various professional people. The building has been remodelled and added to over the years. The spectacular cast iron orangery where you can dine from breakfast to dinner time was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, the Great Western Railways chief engineer in Victorian times. It was originally part of the main building of Exeter university but was moved here many years ago. Food was up to the usual standard at Wetherspoons and served on the distinctive crockery which was specially designed for the company. My youngest daughter and I ate here several times over a three day trip to view the university. We ate both breakfast and dinner here. I thoroughly recommend having at least a drink or preferably something to eat here if you are in Exeter.☕️ A tip is that your tea, coffee or hot chocolate is bottomless and at the time of writing was only 1.81 GBP per cup.

Came for a group dinner. Ryan and the team were really helpful, made sure we were comfortable. The live music was a nice touch, not too loud. Food was good, no complaints there. A relaxed evening.

Decent spot on the industrial estate. The classic cafe vibe is clean, no fuss. Had the full English breakfast. Portion was generous for the price, honestly couldn&#39;t finish it all. Good, solid food.

Steak was decent for the price, and the unlimited chips were a nice bonus. 👍

As a coeliac, I&#39;m always a bit wary. But they had a decent GF menu. Got the pizza, it was actually good. Everything clearly labelled with allergen stickers, which helps a lot.

The owners and staff were so lovely and welcoming. The food was simple and tasty, just like the menu said.

Been to a few Indian spots in Exeter, this one gets the flavor right. The chicken tikka masala had a proper depth of spice, not just heat. Service was quick and attentive. Place is clean, well-kept. Solid option for a reliable meal.

Been coming here for years. It&#39;s that family-run feel that keeps me coming back. You can taste the care in every dish, like they&#39;re cooking for their own. Always fresh, always consistent.

Great space, amazing food and wonderful service. Really appreciate the birthday surprise for my daughter . Thanks for making it such a lovely night for her.

Been coming here for years, and the old meeting house vibe never gets old. Perfect spot in the city centre when you&#39;re with a group.

The ingredients were so fresh, you could really taste it in every dish. Loved the thoughtful flavour combinations, especially in the seasonal salad. A very relaxed spot for a healthy meal. The wine list had some nice organic options too.

Popped in for a quick lunch. Ordered the chicken katsu curry via the QR code on the table, super easy. Food came out fast and was exactly what I needed. The curry was decently rich. Solid for a no-fuss bite.

Service was quick and friendly even when they were packed. Food arrived hot, which was nice.

The paneer dosa was spot on, really fresh. The rava one too, crispy and not greasy. You can tell they put effort into them. A bit on the pricy side, but you get what you pay for.

The Hour Glass is a charming, historic pub with a cozy atmosphere and friendly bar staff. It&#39;s a great spot for a pint and chat, especially on a Saturday lunchtime.

The ale selection is a real treat. Everything arrived piping hot, even through the app. Just a bit pricey for the portions, but the drinks are fairly priced.

Really liked the Thai veggie burger here, loads of flavour and the chips were spot on. My friend&#39;s lasagne looked good too, nice cheesy top. Service was quick, which was a plus on a busy Friday. Ales were well-kept. Solid pub grub.
