Our go to Coffee House on a trip to Exeter with friendly staff great atmosphere and lovely Cakes & snacks. Outside seating when the weather is nice overlooking the Roman City Walls. Even let us eat our own cakes (which we had purchased at another place intending to eat later when home) by brining over two plates and forks!!!

Still a great place to come for a coffee or early breakfast as they open at 7:00 on weekdays. They offer two types of coffee normally plus a decaf alternative and the huge selection of pastries, sandwiches and cakes. The berry cherry smoothie was good but did separate after only a very short time so I think they need to adjust their recipe a bit. Sept 2023 Great coffee shop with a range of coffees available. A very busy place though more like a canteen style because it’s so big and noisy. Not really a relaxing place to sit and ponder

As a regular customer at coffee #1, I was disappointed with the quality of the cappuccino I ordered, firstly it was served in a takeaway cup due to the back log of pots & secondly the strength of coffee was lacking I spoke to the young lady who served me, she kindly made fresh ones, unfortunately these were no better Not sure what the issue was but hopefully it won't happen again

No gluten free savoury items whatsoever!! You missed out on food sales as no one in our party would eat when I couldn't. It's not hard to have at least one GF item on sale. We don't all want to eat cakes all the time! Will choose elsewhere in future.

Someone must have stolen the Christmas decorations. Probably the least amount of Christmas decorations in a coffee shop.

Missed lunch so called in early afternoon for coffee which has always been excellent here. It was up to the usual standard. However I made the mistake of ordering a sausage bap to tide me over. It was dreadful. poor quality sausage that had been 'cooked' to death and was super dry, delivered in a dry bun with no butter. I waded through it as I was so hungry, people on an adjoining table said I should complain, I looked at the queue and literally couldn't be bothered.

Used to love this place - however today was left very disappointed. Stood in queue with husband to purchase lunch and a young person jumped the line and was served. Then served with a teapot that lid didn't close. The same happened during the week. I don't wish for cold tea ! However considering my age perhaps I am in the wrong place...lots of laptops !!! Shame because the cookie and cream cake is divine.

The service has been inconsistent. I've visited this branch several times and the staff are always completely disinterested in the customers and their needs. More than once, they gave me wrong order and did not apologise. They seemed annoyed when I asked for napkins. I understand working at a cafe can be stressful, but there is a minimum customer service that is not being delivered.

The friendly staff made me feel right at home, enhancing the overall atmosphere of the café. It's evident that they take pride in their service, creating a warm and inviting environment for customers. I highly recommend Caffe 1 to anyone looking for a great cup of coffee served with a side of friendliness. I'll certainly be returning for more.

Popped in for a quick couple of drinks and a slice of cake whilst shopping, both commented it was the loveliest bit of cake we had in a long time. However whilst ordering I almost walked out due to the rudeness of a male server on the till at 2pm. Make sure you answer the regimented questions in full and correctly or you will get barked at. Don't order cake along with your drinks - wait patiently for the server to ask otherwise again you will get barked at. "WERE JUST DOING DRINKS NOW" x2 Such a shame. It will affect the buisness long term - you don't feel relaxed after how you are spoken to, its really demeaning.

As with almost every coffee shop in England they don't really understand a strong Americana 🤔, it's served in a mug and not a coffee cup and is virtually tasteless, having lived in Europe on and off for many years I find the difference in coffee qualitie remarkably, but perhaps the Brits like weak milky coffee fair enough, but I have not given up yet.

I appreciate the vegan cake options. But if your order a frappe prepare for it to be utterly tasteless as they don’t use espresso and basically just milk and syrup. Truly who can afford to pay for a drink when it is lacklustre? In my opinion there is not one place in Exeter which knows how to make good cafe drinks. It is indeed lacking. And it’s worse because I live here so wished there were better places to get nice drinks especially in the hot summer.

Mr Piper was unprofessional and rude I recently visited a #1coffee shop and was extremely disappointed with my experience. The coffee that I ordered was cold and tasted like it had been sitting out for hours. To make matters worse, the barista who served me was incredibly grumpy and unprofessional. Their sour attitude made me feel unwelcome and uncomfortable, and I left feeling sad and frustrated. As someone who loves coffee and enjoys trying out new coffee shops, it's always disappointing to have a bad experience like this. I was really looking forward to trying out this particular coffee shop, but unfortunately, my visit was a complete letdown. I hope that the #1 coffee shop management takes note of this review and works to improve their service and quality of their coffee. No one wants to pay for a bad experience, especially when it comes to something as simple as a cup of coffee. I certainly won't be returning to this coffee shop and would advise others to steer clear as well.

I used to come to coffee#1 all of the time! It was Exeter’s best kept coffee secret for a long while, but since new management have come in, the standards have dropped! Ordered my usual oat latte to-go and it came out in perfect timing, it was just a little too hot.. I also ordered a toasted tea cake, which I was given about 8 minutes after my coffee (so yes I was stood at the end of the bar, like a lemon, while 10 other customers got their drinks and left) when it did come out to me it was burnt, and I was given only a tiny amount of butter to put on it. It was a bit dry to say the least🙃

Coffee was good, if a little strong for me but easily remedied, I just asked for more full fat milk. Cakes were delicious and a good portion. We had carrot cake and a chocolate and cream cake.
