Exe Coffee Roasters in Exeter

They have a nice flat white ☕️ The place is calm and clean And I also love how the workers help there customers 👍🏻

Great coffee and brownies! Wonderful atmosphere and friendly staff. All the coffee is freshly roasted on site. Offers both espresso based drinks as well as pour-overs.

Stood waiting for five minutes for a member of staff to come to the till. No one came. Little enthusiasm.

What an absolute gem this place is! It came up on times magazine as one of the top things to do in Exeter. Well they weren't wrong! A very friendly gentleman took our order, We both had probably one of the best tasting coffees ever along with a fresh croissant with ham and cheese. We then had the pleasure of meeting the owner Simon. He was so kind and took us to the basement showing and telling us all about how they make their coffee on site, it was so interesting ! After asking Simon if he did pods for our coffee machine he explained that although he didn’t I could but empty pods and he could grind the beans to the correct size for us. Very reasonably priced. Would highly recommend visiting

Very nice service , very nice people, very nice atmosphere, loved this place and would 100% come again and recommend to others 👍

Tried to go past two days (admittedly one was a BH) but it’s completely shut up with no helpful sign. Don’t complain you get only one star when you can’t be bothered to update your opening hours!

The staff are wonderful here, super friendly and inviting. They made delicious coffee and you can purchase bags to make your own at home. The coffee is roasted on-site but the lovely Carol. Simon the owner has invested his time into employing the right staff who are excellent at what they do, perfecting the coffee experience with delicious cakes. David is super helpful and as a small team, he expertly juggles the demands of deliveries to local businesses and keeping the right staff front of house. Tim makes a mean coffee and is an excellent teacher of the barista skills. Anika is super friendly and is excellent with the customers. Nothing is too much trouble and they're always happy. I love supporting a small local company and it makes me so pleased to see how many other small companies have linked in with them. The community vine is wonderful. Dogs are welcome on a lead.

Amazing coffee really nice roast would highly recommend

One of my favourite cafes, ever since we moved to Exeter which is about 3 years, it never disappoints. Great customer service I always get looked after as a customer. Amazing coffee and food , especially the pastries. It is a very friendly and relaxing atmosphere. I recommend this cafe to anyone that just wants a coffee.

Loved the Place, Coffee and The Ambiance was Lovely. Bought Hot chocolate too

I visited to buy a bag of fresh beans for the espresso machine at home, having tried a small one recently and deciding to go for a kilo a time from now on as it's so good. The first thing that hits you when you open the door is the aroma from the roasting going on downstairs. It floats up and hits you in the face, absolutely heavenly! There were a surprising number of people sat at tables having a cup and reading their papers, eating and talking. Lovely atmosphere and I wish I hadn't been in a hurry, unable to stop. I'm sure the coffee they serve is excellent too and I'd recommend here over any other coffee shop or roaster in Exeter.

Great speciality coffee in cosy atmosphere!

Great speciality coffee in cosy atmosphere!

amazing coffee and other warm drinks for a very fair price, coffee is locally roasted and served very nicely - service was average, fast but not overly enthusiastic or welcoming - nonetheless a very nice place to sit inside and enjoy a coffee and perhaps a cake - unfortunately, due to its location on a busy road, sitting outside in the summer is not the most pleasant

super accommodating and friendly, best coffee in exeter (in my opinion), and a lovely window seat if you can bag it!

Absolutely SUBLIME coffee, I've never tasted coffee that sings notes in your mouth when you drink it like what they sell here. The owner Simon takes some serious pride in getting top tier beans and roasting them with love and care! Had a great chat with him and learned loads about coffee that I didn't know + now fear I'm becoming a massive coffee snob but I don't even care! Fantastic locally owned coffee house, definitely a new fav

Great little cafe. Excellent coffee, lovely atmosphere, freindly staff and excellent service. I also bought some of their beans for home and they make superb coffee.

Probably the best coffee I have tasted, well presented at a good temperature. It would be easy to walk or drive past and not notice this coffee oasis.

Coffee and service very good but the toilet was not up to standard. Not clean and the door lock not working, also the tap not secure. Needs decorating.

Amazing coffee, freshly roasted beans right on the premises. Super friendly owner.

Coffee tastes excellent. We came here for the coffee and it was very good. Servers are pleasant and kind. Happy about the whole experience.

Amazing local blends and very tasty, different flavours to I personally like the neighbour blend x ❤️ and if u buy a bag they can grind the beans for u

Exe Coffee Roasters is an absolute gem of a place. Unassuming from the outside, but full of life and vibrancy within. Great service from engaging staff and serving the very best blended coffee…..and the coffee beans are even roasted on site! Well worth a visit …..and then many more.

We stumbled upon this awesome coffee house just outside of the city centre. Check it out if you get the chance, the coffee was amazing. Local too!

We dropped in here for coffee and lunch on our drive down to Devon for a family weekend, our first visit for quite a while. The flat whites were as good as ever, the toasties very tasty - and we came away with two bags of beans!

Delicious and great service. The coffee is roasted in house and you can tell. The staff were helpful and friendly and I had a delicious sandwich.

Amazing service and coffee is just wonderful!!

Loved this place, off the beaten track but well worth the visit!!.. friendly staff and great atmosphere 👍👍

Lovely coffee, expensive, limited menu.

This is the best coffee shop overall in Exeter I’ve visited so far. The coffee is delicious and the baristas not only know what they’re doing but are the most friendly. I buy my beans here for my morning cup and have been slowly working my way through all the different roasts they sell and have yet to be unimpressed. Exe Coffee Roasters immediately made me feel at home in a new city/country and I’m so thankful! It is cramped in there, as it’s a super small cozy space. I like the layout and how snug it is but this may potentially be a turnoff to some?

Great coffee, roasted on site. Great flavour and smooth.

Casual, cozy cafe near the centre, free parking outside and paid for down the road. Enjoyed a good espresso here and they have a lovely looking selection of cakes that I'll definitely try out next time.

The smell of roasting coffee as you go in is so good. I am a decaf drinker and it is so nice to get something that tastes like the fully charged stuff.

really nice atmosphere and lovely staff!

Very cute little coffee shop. Excellent third wave coffee. Apparently the hot chocolate was also very good.

Very good coffee. Lovely staff.

Lovely cute little coffee house with great coffee ☕💖☕

Großartiger Kaffee ☕ und großartige Backwaren wie Croissants und andere Leckereien 🥐🍞🧇🥞.

Lovely place and great coffee. Whether they make an espresso based drink or a filter coffee it is all very professional. Also, the cakes/pastries are just what you need as a nibble. An independent coffee too nice. There is also a little outside area at the back. Can't get enough of it... And great background music "is Vic there".

Cozy coffee shop with great coffee and great people who know what a good coffee should be

Great service and fantastic coffee

I must say i am very impressed by this lil cafe tucked away in Exeter. I had a list of cafe i wanted to try during my short stay in Exeter and after our first day here, we ended up coming back to Exe Coffee throughout our stay. Matt was great and made the best ice latte & ice mocha ... enjoyed our toasties too! Would defo come back when we revisit Exeter.

Lovely little coffee place to sit and relax on a lunch break! Matt made me the most delicious out latte, and I was able to sit and read my book in peace! The atmosphere is lovely, the windows let in so much gorgeous warm light. I had the vegan rocky road, which was extremely tasty! Highly recommend ☕

Super friendly and helpful. The filter coffee was the tastiest I’ve had in a long time- full of flavour. Lovely atmosphere, highly recommend.

Coffee was amazing, cheese and ham toastie was also delicious. Staff very friendly and fully wipe down tables between customers.

The best coffee in Exeter,, lovely staff 👍🏻

Great independent place for a coffee and breakfast. Just south of city centre.

A small beautiful place, coffee is great, staff are wonderful and delightful... The first time I came in the guy offered me a taste of brewed coffee, it was so good made me walkout with a cappucino and a tall black for later, ended up drinking them back to back, got a caffien rush but totally worth it. Second time, Wanted to buy a bag of coffee beans, again this friendly barista let me smell another bag of beans he recommended, had to grab it too. 😂 If you read this and still haven't tried this place... You are missing out

Lovely independent coffee shop. Fresh roasted coffee on site in a convenient location.

Stopped here for a coffee on route to work. Amazing coffee, friendly staff. I would recommend

I have tried most coffee shops in Exeter, and this is the best.

My husband and I visited today and had a really enjoyable experience. The staff were very welcoming and friendly and the coffee was great. I was very surprised by the quality of the food, I had the sharing platter (eating for two!) and my husband had the Brie and bacon toastie. We both raved about the how great our food was. Looking forward to coming back here. You also know a place is good when you see lots of regulars coming in and the staff know them by name!

Great coffee in, great coffee out. Nice cake. Lovely people.

Fantastic service, outstanding food, reasonably priced.

Cracking coffee with a smile. Perfect stop on my way to work.

Excellent coffee & such friendly service too. Looking forward to trying the cakes next time ☕

I was given some of your delicious coffee for Christmas and will definitely be getting more

Just great coffee, expertly roasted. Steve at Exe helped me advance my own roasting skills and even gave me some of his speciality green beans to try roasting myself. Just a great experience with real commitment to the best of third wave coffee. Their neighbourhood espresso blend is exceptional and I buy A LOT of speciality coffee! My go-to espresso blend and now something I aspire to as an amateur coffee roaster.

Fabulous coffee! Lush cake! And really friendly staff! The shop is lovely and has a really lovely atmosphere too.

Great coffee and really friendly staff

Good and ethical coffee, and very nice atmosphere, I really enjoy going here when I get a chance. Also, cakes are very good

Lovely coffee & friendly, helpful service. Too small for groups of above 4 people.

Fantastic coffee. Full of flavour. Best flat white I had for a long time.

I've been here in Exeter for a week and I find this lovely coffee near my hotel. The place is cute with a very calm vibe, people working in there are very friendly and smiling and the coffee honestly is the best that I have tried. The milk temperature is perfect (I live in London where the drinks are always extremely hot) and the coffee taste is delicious.

One of the best coffee in Exeter

I had the privilege of attending EXE Coffee for one of their Barista courses. Considering the complications of Covid the course was brilliant, Very informative throughout. Steve and Sam were really engaging and gave some real insight into the origins, brewing, roasting and tasting of coffee. I would highly recommend the Barista course and I've also had the pleasure of leaving with with two great coffees to try at home. Pure excellence

Best coffee in Exeter, all roasting done in house 👌

I ordered some of the Neighbourhood Blend online. It was delivered very swiftly and was delicious. Can't wait to order some more, or even get back down to Exeter to enjoy a cup of coffee in the cafe.

Excellent coffee and food at a reasonable price in a very cosy café. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. My favourite place in Exeter for a coffee.

I was bought a barista experience as a present and I had a brilliant evening! The guys running the course were so friendly and knowledgeable. I learnt SO much about the art and intricacies of coffee making! I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone with even a fleeting interest in coffee. Oh, and we drank some AMAZING coffee too. (Don’t judge them on the milk art in the pictures, they’re mine - although I was impressed with them myself 😀)

Really great coffee and lovely people

Very friendly coffee shop. The coffee is their own roast and is by far the best in Exeter! The loose leaf tea is also exceptional for those less keen on coffee. It's amazing quality at a great price and well worth the short walk from the high street!

If anyone writes a bad review about this place you should be ashamed. real cozy and comfortable, warm and welcoming with the best Toastie I’ve ever had . Cheddar, mozzarella , red onion and smoked ham. Get in my belly.

Popped in after a mile swim for coffee and cake, all that exercise undone in ten minutes! What the hell, delicious coffee and cake, good music and very chilled. I must stop coming in after swimming!

Would appear there is no longer a passion for a pizza. Lovely atmosphere, poor service, poor pizza. Little point in writing more as this was the last pizza evening.

Might be nice. Don't know as they hardly open at the weekend, and in a service industry seem to forget people work.

I agree with all the reviews here. The atmosphere, standard of food and quality coffee is excellent. Thoroughly deserves the 5 stars.

Best coffee in Exeter I've tried, oat milk alternative and vegan cake is exquisite

Nice coffee shop, good choice of cakes

This place got soul! Super friendly baristas who know how to create a buzz with their regulars. Coffee excellent too.

Relaxed atmosphere, lovely coffee, light snacks

Great little coffee shop - busy, lively ambience!

Great coffee, friendly enthusiastic staff

This delightful cafe is a favourite of ours. Excellent coffee, vegan cakes and avocado on toast! Delightful staff and a central location.

Family were having a swim in Pyramid leisure centre across the road so I stopped here for a coffee and to catch up on some work and a little admin. I had tried the coffee at Darts Farm Shop restaurant so I already knew the coffee was going to be good but I wasn’t expecting Chemex and the like on the menu. As it was, I had a long black and slowly sipped the pleasant sweet roast in the cosy and relaxed atmosphere with a good music selection playing in the background. It’s fairly small (hence the ‘cosy’ bit), but if you are in any way a coffee connoisseur, it’s well worth going out of your way for if you’re not here anyway. Warm welcome from the friendly staff which added to the relaxed atmosphere.

Lovely, cozy coffee shop. Popped in for a quick drink and to use the loos. Very polite ladies serving. Thanks.

Nice quiet cafe with very friendly staff. Too bad that the coffee is way overpriced for what it is. Nothing special about it (robusta). £2.50 for an espresso! £2 for a croissant!

Wonderful people always polite and cheerful. Best cup of coffee in Exeter too 🥰

Great coffee, pastries, vibe, and staff! Ruth snd Phoebe are the most amazing baristas who create a fun and cordial environment. And ... the neighbourhood blend is 👌🏼👌🏼 for a pour over. One of the best I’ve ever had... and I’ve had a lot!

Lovely cafe, unfortunately they ran out of what I wanted for breakfast, but I guess it is a good sign for a small business! Will be back :)

Great speciality coffee shop with a full espresso bar and a nice pourover brew bar of v60 and chemex. The baristas are really friendly and approachable and have a brilliant coffee knowledge as well as being very well trained. The space is small and cosy with a great atmosphere, but it does fill up quick. They have a menu full of amazing food, we ordered the cinnamon toast when we went yesterday a long with a couple of v60 pourovers and a flat white. All made excellently and all were delicious. Also has a range of coffee and coffee items for sale.

Gourmet quality coffee with a Stevie wonder soundtrack, so to speak.

It's not often the coffee shop on your doorstep, is one of the best you've been to. Exeter is home to a great many, wonderful coffee shops; but Exe stands out through its subtle charm, the warmth from its staff, and of course the delicious, and consistent coffee. Ideal for small business meetings, a catch up with friends, or just some time alone. Dog, and child friendly. An eclectic music selection varies each day, but is never intrusive or detracts from the quaint coffee house atmosphere. And, If you're a pastry fiend like my partner, then you will not be disappointed. Well worth the visit, 5/5.

Exe Roasters is by far my favourite coffee spot in Exeter. I take any opportunity to dive in during the working week! Both of their coffee shops have a different vibe going on, but are both small enough to be intimate and cosy. The staff are fab - unpretentious (which I think is really important) and super friendly. The gluten free cakes are a bonus!

I visit here when I’m visiting the hospital with mum. Quite often nowadays! Always a smile from the staff - especially Ruth. Food very good. The other day they had run out of sourdough and I had farmhouse bread instead with smoked salmon and cream cheese, etc. It was actually really good and maybe even better than the sourdough. The crust on it was delicious. Maybe it could be an option. Or maybe it is already! The coffee is really excellent and their El Salvador beans to takeaway are a favourite of mine

Nice speciality coffee shop, colourfully decorated. Good sandwich and cake options, although I haven't tried any.

Great little find, shame I don't live closer as it would be a regular stop

The real taste of coffee in Exeter, although it closes early :)

Popped in at lunch time and received a really friendly welcome. the café was very clean it has its own character and it is comfortable. I ordered a black coffee and brie and bacon toasted sandwich. I was asked to sit and everything wold lbe brought to me. Really nice coffee, the sandwich was made with really nice bread. Unfortunately it is not somewhere I go often but if I am in town I would go out of my way to eat there.

I've had coffee in some of the world's top coffee shops e.g. 3FE Dublin and Truth Capetown. This place is almost on a par with those. They really know their coffee. Great to have this calibre of shop in Exeter.
