Had a great time in here the other week, wanted to go back Saturday, looked at the website and noted the 12:30 opening time. It was closed, went back over an hour later and still closed even though a sign in the window said 12:30 opening. Do us and yourselves a favour and update the opening times please.

Good range of beers to takeaway, although a little overpriced for Exeter. Not a bad place to sit for a beer but could do with a bit of a revamp inside. Good friendly service.

We absolutely love Cuckoo. If you want to try craft beer or cider there really is no better place. There are always a variety of drinks on draft and a huge array of bottles and cans in the - beware this stuff if often strong abut always delicious - every time I try something different and every time I am delighted - drinking beer really doesn't get any better than this. As a bonus on a Wednesday you often find people playing boardgames from 5pm until closing, it is a really lovely, friendly and relaxed atmosphere that is always welcoming and inclusive to new people.

This place is a gem. An excellent and very eclectic selection of beers available in a funky super casual environment over 2 floors in the center of Exeter. Joel knows his shtuff and is adventurous in his selections. Served in either full, ⅓ or ⅔ pints which allows you to try a few. Also have a wide range of cans for carry-out in their fridge. Top spot!

If these guys don't sell a beer you like, maybe it's not worth drinking! A perfect example of a great independent taking pride in product with a really good local following. Well worth a stop if you're into your beers or to grab a few takeout. To note, I'm not just guided by the fun looking cans, although they're always pretty good.

Has a cracking selection of beers that constantly change on tap and are always very enjoyable. My only criticism is that it doesn't always open at the times advertised. Many times I have come here for a drink, only to find it closed when it says it is open on their Insta page. If they can sort that out, definitely five stars!

A cracking bar for some great beers! My only issue is that, more than once, it hasn't opened on the time advertised.

Fantastic selection of beers on tap. I like my Belgian and the fact that this bottle shop hasn't given in to stocking the strongest beers they can is fantastic. The chap behind the bar when I asked was very knowledgeable and pointed me towards a German beer he personally drinks. What more of a recommendation do you need. Every time I stay in Exeter for work this will be first point of call. The quality of the beers on tap was fantastic. Lovely and fresh. All in all just a great place to have a couple and relax. Ps. Music wasn't half bad either.

I'm definitely going back! What was planned to be just a little stop off for a quick drink on our way home after a night at the Phoenix turned into us there for a lot longer and not wanting to leave as last orders were called! The welcome we received was very warm, with the manager serving at the bar, very kindly discussing the flavours of various drinks and offering samples from a wide selection before we made our choices, then chatting away happily with us as if we were friends! The decor is calm and relaxing, with a modern style featuring well thought through furniture. The window display is quite quirky, with a mannequin - hinting to the premises' history as a shop I guess, and there's plenty of plants around to make the place feel homely. There were plenty of seats, and we chose to perch at the bar. I'm not much of a beer drinker, but I can appreciate a taproom that has curated an excellent menu of local and specialist drinks for the discerning beer fan. There were also soft drinks and snacks on offer. From the posters in the window you could tell there were events coming up, including a birthday party in July...so I'm definitely checking that out and coming back again. Would highly recommend for an unusual and cool spot for a drink in Exeter. Thanks for welcoming us! Cheers Cuckoo!

I visited Taco-Macho for a family birthday recently. The restaurant is in the upstairs of the Cuckoo Taproom so plenty of of opportunity for pre and post dinner drinks. Gustavo, Taco Macho owner, is a really generous host, his food really is utterly delicious and I could probably eat there every day! :) Everything is very reasonably priced and the restaurant space is small and chilled. There is also the option to have your food in the pub downstairs. Highly recommended!
