Exeter inn in East Devon

We have just had breakfast and it was very good value for money very well presented and great quality definitely value for money.

Great truck now back open lovely people good facilities for truckers. Will definitely stopover here again.

Visited the Exeter Inn today with my walking group, sixteen and four dogs. Nice place and nice staff. We had hoped to eat lunch there, but unfortunately that wasn't possible on the day. I had previously spoken to Malcolm the landlord and asked, as they couldn't do a lunch, if he would be happy for us to take our own food, and he very kindly said yes. Wow, thanks Malcolm. We wish you and Jane well for the future.

This pub is an ideal drinking hole for someone wanting to chill, have some drinks, possibly a bite to eat and know that you can get served quickly and have a yap if you want to. My favourite pub by a mile.

I stopped here after hearing a friend say it was very welcoming and friendly. Well I will certainly attest to that. Really nice little pub and reasonably priced too.

We very much enjoyed our hearty meals at this lovely pub. The portion sizes are very generous, reasonably priced and you will not leave hungry! Traditional English meals are on offer such as cottage pie, pork chops, faggots, fish and chips and bangers and mash and lots of others which are very much appreciated by the drivers who stop there for dinner as well as visitors like us. The pub itself was very clean including the toilets and we had a lovely chat with the landlady. In all, a brilliant find!

Took the ex wife out for a meal to cheer her up after her cat passed away Went for the chilliest Mexican style Absolutely Delicious

We had Lunch here today,groupon voucher given as xmas present,outstanding,couldnt fault service,food quality,felt as welcome as a regular customer

Came in for a roast which was bought for us as a present on groupon. First impression was it was unclean. The table had old sauce which we had to wipe off ourselves as we didn’t want to make a fuss. Quantities where big and we couldn’t finish the meals, we apologised and said we both weren’t keen on veg and that my girlfriend has a health condition where she can’t eat big meals, only to have a rude response. We finished up our food and said thanks very much only to have the landlady say how disgusted she was that we hadn’t finished it. We walked out feeling embarrassed and were appalled by the comments she made.

We visited this Sunday just gone using a Groupon voucher and whilst having been numerous times before i have to say the roast dinner and dessert were as good if not better than all the other times. Locally sourced meat, i had turkey the wife had pork, the gravy was great and the veg all freshly cooked. The meat was amazing tender and very very tasty. Dessert was cheap and the portion sizes large especially compared to what you get in other places. The welcome is always freindly and the atmosphere is relaxed. The Exeter Inn is one of our favourties we drive for nearly 45 minutes to get there, we will be back again as we know what to expect, good quality food at very reasonable prices with freindly service. i would have no hesitation recommending it to anyone, you just have to not judge the book by its cover and wait for the superb meal that awaits. You wont be disappointed, we never are. Thank you

Was looking forward to eating here after reading good reviews but was very disappointed. Had a Groupon voucher for 4 people for Sunday lunch. Voucher said I had to phone to pre-book a table. Rang several times as I kept getting an answer machine. In the end I left a message telling them I needed to book a table for a Groupon deal and asked for a call back. Waited 2 days but no call back. Rang again and actually got to speak to someone. They said they never got my message as they don't know how to listen to them! What's the point of having an answer machine then? When we arrived they found our booking and told us to find a table. The pub is really small with a handful of tables, which were all taken by what looked like locals, some with dogs, except for one table of 4, with no reserved sign on it. Waste of time pre-booking if they didn't reserve a table for us. If the free table had been taken we would have been standing around for goodness knows how long.The table was right in front of the main door, which meant it was very draughty and there was little room for people to get past as they came in. 2 of us were expected to sit on little stools, as chairs would have made the room for anyone coming in even worse to get past. However, my brother-in-law had no option but to swop the stool for a vacant chair as he needed back support and people just had to squeeze by. The meal was fine but when our plates were collected they didn't mention desserts, which were displayed on a blackboard. We decided what we wanted and asked at the bar if we could order desserts. The reply was "sorry we haven't any today". The pub is used as a truckstop and provides accommodation and food for drivers and you can tell. It is really small and very tatty with worn out tables and chairs. I saw one customer let his dog lick the table! Had I known I would never have booked this place. I felt let down as I had bought a Groupon voucher for my sister and brother-in-law's anniversary present and felt embarrassed I had taken them there. Would rather have spent more and taken them to a cleaner place with better service and desserts. Can't understand the great reviews at all. All I would say to people thinking of going there is don't do it!

A friend bought us a groupon Sunday roast gift for Exeter Inn. This must be the best pub grub you can ever wish to eat, my goodness it was amazing. My husband had roast lamb and I had the beef, the roast potatoes are to die for! I very rarely have a pud but had sticky toffee pudding and custard, it was pure indulgence. The pub is very friendly, the landlord is a really nice guy and the customer s in-there were really friendly and made us feel so welcome, the pub is a drive for us but now we have been there we will most definitely return.. it’s brilliant value and we know that we will get a really good home cooked meal, the customers that were in there were raving over the curry so we will try that next time, there is a great selection on the menu but sundays is roast only apparently but this is available all day. I

Had a super meal today,juicy gammon peas & chips,also fish & chips,wholetail scampi,not just me but my family,a really lovely selection of food on the menu,super young lady served us helpful nothing to much trouble,sweets yummy also a good choice,nice glass of wine,we will be back, you should try really good value & reasonable price for childrens meals.

Our second Sunday Lunch visit, a 'Groupon' present from the Grandchildren. A lovely honest Local Sunday Lunch with a glass of Red. No frills, no fuss, modest and superb value. Recommended.

I visited the Exeter inn this evening with my partner and young daughter. The landlord was very friendly. I was extremely happy with the service and genuine welcome we experienced. What a lovely local and friendly pub, with a yummy menu also if you like . Will definitely be returning :)

Excellent food especially the steak.Good friendly staff. Highly recommend. About ten minutes from m5 junction 29.

Paré aquí a media tarde camino al aeropuerto de Exeter. No sabía qué esperar y, al solicitar el menú, dijo que estaba en tablas alrededor de la pared. . . De hecho, se ofreció una gran variedad de comida tradicional a un precio muy razonable. . . Oliendo el curry, opté por el pollo Jalfrezi y qué gran elección resultó ser. Sin duda el mejor pub de curry que he tenido el placer de comer. Mi hijo tenía una porción de salchicha gigante, huevos, papas fritas y frijoles, y también estaba encantado con su comida. Claramente una parada de camioneros populares. . . . Si muestras la comida puedes entender por qué. Muy recomendable para cualquier viajero hambriento.

Wonderful Sunday roast, lovely beef, fresh vegetables and'proper'tasty gravy. Cosy and friendly atmosphere, perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon

Tuve un increíble asado aquí a través de Groupon el año pasado y no había estado en Exeter desde entonces, hasta que nuestro coche fue atendido hace quince días. Elegido 10. 30 cita que permitió un viaje al cercano Garden Center de Ottery antes de mi muy esperado regreso para almorzar en este gran pub. El almuerzo del domingo estuvo muy ocupado, pero pronto nos dimos cuenta de por qué. . . la comida es maravillosa Este viaje fue en un día laborable y fue más tranquilo que dio tiempo a 'conocer' a Jane y Malcolm. . . . qué gente amable, mucha conversación y risas. Teníamos bacalao batido y pudín de carne y cerveza. 'Demasiado de algo bueno' viene a la mente. Se asegurará de visitar en un día laborable de nuevo tan pronto como sea posible.

Good food, mansize portions, best all inclusive truckstop in Devon, never a dull moment with Malcome, enjoy the sarcasme Roger 455

Mi esposa y yo disfrutamos de un excelente almuerzo de domingo de carne asada aquí hoy, cortesía de 'Groupon'.

Este hotel está a un corto paseo de 5 - 10 minutos en coche de la M5. Sirven comida abundante (chorizo, jamón y huevos, salchichas y puré de patatas, etc). La comida es buena, las porciones son grandes y el servicio es acogedor. Posiblemente no una pincelada culinaria pero tuvimos una comida muy agradable y un bienvenido descanso de la autopista.
