My family and I have been loyal customers of Brewers Fayre Exeter for over 2 years. We go every Sunday and enjoy Sunday lunch (carvery) which is lovely, the roast potatoes are a fave of ours. Chef Steve is a delight and is always so friendly as are all the staff. They even have seated me in a more quiet area of the restaurant to keep my little girl sleeping so I can enjoy a nice Sunday lunch😊. Joining the bonus club is well worth it too, money off food vouchers and free bottle of wine. See you Sunday brewers!🙂🍴

Stayed 1 night at premier inn so we decided to eat at the brewers fair ,we ordered our starters and main meal waited approximately 40 minutes for the starters but the main meal arrived first needless to say I was not impressed. I went to the counter to complain and they just smiled and shrugged their shoulders I asked for a refund which was paid in full .never will I go back.

We booked for a Sunday carvery. The lady who served us at the bar was quite short with us a was ordering other staff around and asking them to do things when we had queries. We ordered a glass of red wine and were told that the wine list was on the menu on the table and she could not advise us of what she had to offer. She stormed off to a nearby table to grab one and thrust it towards us to make the choice. The carvery server seemed to be a bit put out that he had to serve us and the food was definitely lacking, even right at the beginning of service. We also ordered 2 refillable soft drinks but the fluid that came out was not fizzy and was also very syrupy. We reported this to the waitress who said they’d have a look but never returned to say it had been fixed or to offer replacement drinks from the bar. We drove past a Toby Carvery on our way out and wished we had booked there instead.

Had no choice to eat at this pub as was staying at the hotel only one person serving behind the bar with a big queue, hour wait for food and when it did come out it was burnt, cold and tasted awful. I can see why most of this chain has closed down, over priced and the food was shocking. Not great when you have no choice but to eat there.

Absolutely terrible service and ignorant staff who couldn't give a damn. I took my husband today on what is his birthday. We first went in around 3.30pm and was told "We are closed until 4.30pm. We went back at 4.30 and ordered our 2 meals. Mine came and I started eating it, my husbands meal came 35 minutes later! After asking twice in that time where his meal was the manager said he would find out. Still waiting and the manager didn't have the decency to come and explain why the wait. We asked again to no avail. After I had eaten more than 3 quarters of my meal a male server came and said they will give me a new plate of food! I told him that I couldn't eat another meal but maybe a dessert would be nice. No deserts was offered though. When at last my husbands meal finally came the very rude and arrogant female server told us that at least I had been offered another meal. She couldn't understand that I had eaten the majority of my meal and couldn't eat another one we just wanted my husbands meal sooner. I had to sit and watch him eat his after he had to sit and watch me eat mine. Absolutely disgusted and will not be going there again.

We visited the restaurant for a Sunday Carvery. The carvery runs from 12 until 6 and we got there at 2 o clock to be told that the carvery had all gone. The restaurant wasn't overly busy and I could understand if we had got there at 5 and there was no carvery left but there was still 4 hours to go! I don't know if the restaurant was just very under prepared or if they didn't want to serve it anymore but we were very disappointed and surprised. We decided to stay and have something off the normal menu instead even though we were looking forward to the carvery. They didn't have the cheese and onion pie that one of the party wanted to order (this has been a common issue with Brewers Fayres lately and I don't know whey they don't advise you of this when you walk in). We had a discount code to use and we had also exchanged our loyalty points for a bottle of wine. The discount went through ok but when we tried to get the bottle of wine the till wouldn't allow a second voucher to go through. Both vouchers state that they can be used in conjunction with each other so there shouldn't have been an issue. The boy behind the till was very much of a 'computer says no' attitude and didn't try to help. In the end we decided to leave without eating and found somewhere else to get out carvery.

Absolutely disgusting- walked on at 1pm and the restaurant was half empty. Asked for a table for four as we had driven from Swindon to meet a relative who has a life threatening illness and were told that the only people who could eat in the pub was people who were staying in the premier inn that evening. We pointed out that we had stayed the previous night but were still turned away by a very rude waitress who said she was the only person working (there was clearly two other people behind the bar). Asked to speak to the manager who also refused to let us in and was shocked that we asked for an email address for their head office and also refused to provide this. Have been using this premier inn/brewers Fayre for several months but will no longer do so

My recent experience at Brewers Fayre (M5, Jn 29) was marred by numerous disappointments, leaving me deeply dissatisfied with the overall experience. The lack of empathy and understanding particularly exemplified by an encounter with Josh, the duty manager, was particularly disheartening. Despite clear information from Google and the establishment's own website indicating a closing time of 10:30pm on Sundays, I arrived just after 9pm to find the bar and restaurant closed. I had endured a particularly challenging day, and as I was staying at the Premier Inn next door, had factored a late evening meal at the BF. Rather than acknowledging my clear confusion and frustration, Josh displayed a lack of willingness to assist or offer alternative dining options. His actions demonstrated a notable deficiency in customer service. He later drew my attention to a paragraph that stated the restaurant closed at 9pm, but as I explained, my information was gleaned from Google. Despite being left hungry, I sat to complete a few work emails. I was then asked to leave by a young staff member at 9:45pm. Josh's rude and dismissive attitude upon my request for a brief 10 min extension, was unacceptable. When I expressed my dissatisfaction with his attitude, his response was dismissive and disrespectful, with a flippant retort of "you too mate." This exchange only served to highlight a lack of managerial competence and customer-centric values, leaving me deeply disappointed in the overall experience. Additionally, I must highlight the unkempt appearance of the staff, which detracted further from the overall ambiance of Brewers Fayre (M5, Jn 29). It was evident that some members of the team were not adhering to the expected dress standards (clothing be neat and clean and not ripped, frayed, disheveled, tight, revealing or otherwise inappropriate), with several staff members appearing scruffy in their attire. Drainpipe jeans, untucked shirts, and trainers seemed to have become the norm, presenting a disconcerting lack of professionalism. This disregard for dress code standards reflects poorly on the establishment's image and contributes to an atmosphere of carelessness and laxity. It is essential for management to enforce and maintain appropriate dress standards among staff to uphold the reputation and credibility of the establishment. Overall, my experience at Brewers Fayre (M5, Jn 29) fell far short of expectations, marked by poor customer service. For a brand purporting to offer a comfortable and enjoyable guest experience, these shortcomings are deeply disappointing and underscore a need for substantial improvement in various areas. As a result, I am compelled to seek alternative F&B options in the future, as the current standards fail to meet even the most basic expectations of guest satisfaction, nor do not meet my expectations or warrant continued patronage.

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish! I booked for my daughter’s 21st. On arrival there was birthday banners and balloons and a gift and card from the establishment for my daughter. We were a large table of 18. The food came out all together and all cooked perfectly with no hitches. Staff were amazing. Thank you to all the staff for being so accommodating, my daughter throughly enjoyed her self.

Staying nearby and looking for somewhere nearby to eat. My expectations were not high, but even they weren’t met. If you could find them, staff were polite and service was pretty speedy in a half full venue. There were a lot of menu items not available. We picked bearing that in mind, and one of the two items was also not available. Food came. Burger and fish & chips. Both were warm and ok. Batter on fish was soggy and removed. Fish underneath ok. Drinks came fast and were ok. Not much more to add Overall a disappointing visit. Have been to man better Brewer’s Fayres in the past. Doubt I will be back to this one in a hurry.

The worst Brewers Fayre I have visited! The staff member taking orders at the till incorrectly took my order and when I went back to query the error blamed me! Because I argued back, saying they made the error I was asked to apologise by both the supervisor and duty manager. I refused to apologise and I was made to feel uncomfortable. After a heated discussion we managed to sort out the order. Things only went down hill from there, we were a table of 12 and main courses were brought to the table with starters. The carvery was poor, the roast potatoes and parsnips were burnt and the vegetables had been standing on the hot plate for to long. Finally, desserts were brought to the table whilst people were still eating the main course. I will not be returning to this Brewers Fayre, both the staff and management team need to look at their customer service skills and improve the standard of the food they are offering. If this had not been a family meal on Mother's Day we would have walked out.

Been visiting Brewers Fayres for lunch for several years. The Lunch menu was always great value for money but now they've cut the size. quality and content so much it is now quite poor. I'd rather they'd increased the price more and maintained the previous standard. Smothered chicken used to be excellent and the option to upgrade the fish has been withdrawn from the Lunch menu. Very disappointed, unlikely to visit on a regular basis now.

We are regular visitors here Sunday carvery ( often coming mid week too). The vegetables are always crisp and fresh with everything in small bowls so it gets regularly changed. Always a friendly welcome on arrival no matter who is on duty. The chef on Sunday is happy to chat with customers as he perfectly carves the meat. Bit reluctant to put too good a review as it's a bit of a hidden gem

We've been to This Brewers Fayre many times, two things not as good, firstly the menu has changed with a real cost cutting exercise. Smothered Chicken has no salad or dressing and without coslaw, plus if you upgrade to two bits of chicken there is no cheese or bacon on the second bit. The plate looks very empty. The heating on the main room wasn't working, or the temperature was set to low.

I’m a tad annoyed. We had been working hard all day. At about 2pm OH said ‘I wonder if anywhere near us does an all day roast?’ Btw we are new to the area. I googled and saw that Brewers fayre does a roast 12-6 on a Sunday. Great. I booked a table for 5.30. We read the menu which also states roast 12-6. At the bar, when ordering a roast I was told that they finish roasts at about 2-3pm . OH furious! The curry was ok but it wasn’t what we wanted. First world problem I know but………unhappy customer.com

Ordered an evening meal and 5 mins later it arrived. Only burger and fries and gammon and fries. Fries were Luke warm and tasted like they’d been left out since lunch. Burger had obviously been sitting there awhile as had the gammon. Microwaved? I don’t...

Stayed on business so had the meal deal. Decided to have sirloin. I know what a sirloin looks like, what they serve is thin flat steak, more like a quick fry steak. Also strong taste of flames which was not pleasant, almost false. Overall tasted...

One person serving, queued nearly into the car park just to order. Waited over an hour for main. Several nearby tables received half the orders and the other half an hour later. Multiple tables us included had to keep asking where the food was just...

There are a few members of this team that make this restaurant amazing, in particular Tam and Millie, they are both polite and efficient and work extremely hard to keep the place running, unfortunately do to staffing issues it’s members like these two that hold...

No idea how good the food is yet. The management saw fit to roster a single person taking both food orders and serving drinks at the bar on a Saturday night. The queue is stretching from the bar almost out into the car park and...

Greeted warmly and given a lovely table. There was only one person on the tills so the wait was nearly out the door. Food arrived quickly, however, the rest of the experience was not so great. My steak was asked to be well done, it...

When we arrived we received quick service and had a very enjoyable breakfast. Thanks must go to Zoltan and Ben for doing incredibly well despite the fact that the restaurant got very busy and they were short of staff. Well done!

We visited here at 10.30am on a Saturday morning. The staff were very friendly and told us that there was no hash browns which is a bit disappointing when that’s your fav thing. All I can say is it’s just average the sausage was very...

We were so fortunate to have the lovely Claire serving us who made this late family Christmas meal spectacular. The food was great, it was close to the motorway for traveling family and the whole team were welcoming and friendly. Thank you again x

Very pretentious and over priced doesn’t warrant the price tag . Lovely decor but does that warrant the overpricing 🤔 what do you think

The sirloin beef was excellent, and the vegetable cook produced perfect freshly cooked vegetables to go with the meal (no English mustard?). The restaurant was clean and the view is amazing. Nonetheless, the best meals are served by good waiters. I felt sorry for our waitress who had so obviously received totally inadequate training; we had to ask for a drinks menu. It was about twenty minutes before the wine I ordered arrived at our table. After our meal had been served, no one came to ask if everything was OK, (and it wasn't a busy day). we had to wait ages for our plates to be cleared and again when we wished to order our desert (As, I noted, did our neighbouring table). The pleasant atmosphere was somewhat spoiled by rather loud Musac. This was a rather harsh noise coming from the speaker above our head, completely tuneless and utterly pointless. If you feel the need to put a noise through the speakers, please make it relaxing. And tuneful would be nice!

I booked Exe Restaurant for my Birthday dinner with twelve of my friends. After visiting the first time for a Sunday and receiving such amazing food and service, I knew we had to book it for my 25th Birthday. We had the most amazing evening, the food and service was impeccable. They even went to the extra effort of decorating the table and making it feel super special for my friends and I. Thus is one of my favourite restaurants in Exeter and if your looking for somewhere where the food is amazing and you feel really well looked after this place is for you. The staff are amazing, so friendly and helpful. They really do go that extra mile so thank you so much for having us. We can’t wait to come back.

Friendly staff, you need to download the app to order food. I was too hot inside, it wasn’t a cold day so a little too cosy for me. I think you can tell the standard of a place by the toilets and these weren’t good. The toilet doors do not fit and once I’d slammed it shut I struggled to get it open. Wasn’t really clean and smelt a bit in the corridor. Food itself was ok but £11 for a BLT I thought was expensive - it came with vegetable crisps but apart from that was just a sandwich. The fish sandwich was bigger and a pound cheaper.
