Kings Garden and Leisure in East Devon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We have been going to kings for a number of years now and untill recently have always liked the roast beef dinners. But on the last three visits i have noticed a steady decline in quality and portion size. Specifically the beef was tough, Ive had a job cutting it even with the sharp knife they supply. And the roast potatoes too are not like they were. They are too large and have what seems a very tough outer skin which again is hard to cut. Let alone eat. We probably might look elsewhere to eat .mabe give kings less visits.

I regularly go to Kings at Sidmouth for lunch with friends andcsm always happy with every aspect. I expected the same with the Exmouth branch. Unhappily every aspect was exact he opposi. My husbands roast was dry, he said it reminded him of school dinners he had in the 1960s, I had a meal I have often had at the Sidmouth branch but it was very different, the chicken was tough and the sauce glutinous to say the least. The chairs were uncomfortable and although the table had just been cleaned one if the chais was covered in food. We won’t be going there again.

Popped in with my elderly neighbour for coffee. She loves it here, I've never been. Decor - pine cladding, suspended polystyrene panel ceiling, dark green carpet, brown plastic chairs. Might appeal to someone, not sure who. Her fruit scone, apparently very nice. My plain scone, disintegrated on slicing, had to mix the crumbs and cream with a teaspoon, strange taste which 2 hours later is still lingering. Cake selection looked good. I didn't try any but the portions are small. Still, I'd rather that than higher pricing. Service. Plenty of staff, badly deployed. I'm sure with better systems (any system) it would be possible to get everything done without the queue reaching the door. I stood waiting for my hot drinks to be made, then we were asked to sit down while someone put a cold scone on a plate. Every one is making coffee. Two people were trying to fix the milk machine. Well, one fixing one watching. All quite frustrating. It doesn't need a massive injection of cash to make any of this better, just some proper leadership.

The Café is in a garden centre on the edge of town with some outside seating. Most staff are pleasant but one older man seemed happy to ignore customers & only serve when he really had to. Coffee quite good. Good selection of cakes & meals. Price below most other cafes in Exmouth.

I go to Kings a lot. Today with a friend we had what are normally very nice cheese scones but they were almost impossible to eat. We needed a knife and fork as they were so crumbly and certainly not made correctly. We couldn’t even spread the butter as the scones just crumbled. The table behind had fruit scones and were having the same trouble . Perhaps you could check out who made them that day as they weren’t right. Also could you get some cushions for the very hard plastic chairs. Sorry to complain but I’m sure you would like to know if things aren’t up to your normal standard.

Good service, friendly staff, but the worst sausage sandwich ever. I am sure that other items are fine as the cafe was busy.

I visited and had a coronation chicken sandwich and it was not great, huge chunks of chicken loads of sultanas extremely runny coronation mayo. Awful to eat. It would appear that there was no thought or consideration from the person making the sandwich. Staff on the counter very friendly mostly. Nothing is too much trouble and I have found they go out of their way to be helpful.

Can’t understand some of these negative reviews? My own experience has always been excellent service and extremely good food. Always served hot and quickly! Last ate here on Christmas Eve 2023 with my wife and son and no complaints whatsoever! The usual great service and good food!

What a disappointment. Range of plants I suppose are average much better selection at other Garden Centres in Devon. But it is the staff. So rude. Obviously they do not want to be there. Just very unbothered and service at tills is not met with smiles or acknowledgment. We are a bunch of lovely older friends who love gardening. There was 1 staff member in particular. Very unpleasant. Short dark hair is all we can say. But, should not be allowed to serve people with that attitude. We were not going to say anything as it was a month or so ago. But, management really need to sort their staff issue out. I see there are quite a few reviews about the same thing as well in the Cafe. Shame

We went especially to talk to Sue, an employee about garden furniture. It was our first time & we had no idea of what to expect. Sue was knowledgeable and honest, letting us try all of the products and make up our own mind before mentioning discounts. A visit finished off with a meal in the quality restaurant which was equally good We'll be back!

Came with the family for a birthday breakfast. Eldest daughter (11yrs) is Gluten Free and this was no problem. Food was hot and tasty, service with a smile and an ad-hoc 'happy birthday' song 😆. Really impressed with the place, worth a visit.

The chocolate & caramel cake is highly recommended & I understand made in-house too 😋. Quick service & very clean dining area. Nice garden centre with some unusual gifts too. Hope to revisit before the end of our holiday.

In the past I would have given 5 *. This time the food was ok chicken and bacon salad. The cafe was quiet. The reason for 2* is simply the interaction with one of the servers. He interrupted our conversation by trying to start to talk to us during which he continually stretched his genitals.

Visited today with son, dog and elderly parents. The garden centre itself had a wide range of products and a good selection of plants. We went to the cafe to grab something to eat and a drink. Serving staff very friendly and welcoming. 3 pasties; vegan cauliflower and chickpea pasty was delicious but the meat pasty wasn’t a traditional Cornish pasty, more minced meat and potato and quite sloppy, so not great. Dogs are allowed in the garden centre but not the cafe. I appreciate not everyone likes dogs but the cafe is fairly big, couldn’t a section be put aside as dog friendly tables? Dogs allowed in outside seating but steep steps and very little cover from the drizzle. Could there be covered seating outside on level area at least or better cover on the top seating? I’m sure this would make your visitors with dogs much more likely to spend money in the cafe. Mixed visit today hence 3 stars.

Clean and dog free, so very hygienic and good location. I will not eat in in a cafe or restaurant that allows in dogs

Often vist kings for either coffee or lunch, might have a re- think after today when a member of staff came from the kitchen not wearing a mask, stood looked around and then picked his nose in fullsight and then started clearing tables. Bad enough anytime but during a pandemic. Talk to your staff kings and teach them basic hygiene!!

Very nice food quick service pleasant staff. Stopped off after a visit to Exmouth I ordered a bacon, Brie and Cranberry panini my daughter also ordered a panini with tuna and my granddaughter ordered a cheese sandwich all came with a great side salad including half a boiled egg, coleslaw, grated carrot and a slice of orange. The tables were clean and quite well distanced and the place was airy and pleasant, not cheap by any means but a lot on your plate! Coffee was good as were the cold drinks! Would I come again? - yes I would!

We visited the cafe for lunch and we were served by a member of staff who looked liked she was having a bad day. No smile and decidedly frosty! We regularly visit and the staff are usually lovely and friendly. We didn’t recognise this person, so maybe she was new. Once we reached our table, we realised we had been over charged for one of the meals. My sister returned to the counter to again be met with the same unfriendly attitude. No apology for the over charge and in fact still not given the correct amount of over charge but decided to let it go. One other point to mention is, that during our meal a member of staff came round to each table with a tray with cakes on, placed it on our table and asked if we would like to purchase them. I’ve never had a problem with this in the past, however this should not be carried out at present due to COVID.

Very hot stuffy cafe yesterday, poor ventilation. Didn't feel Covid safe on this occasion. Outside space very difficult to access for older people, especially carrying trays of food and drinks, and signage stated " no entry staff only". Unsurprisingly no-one was using this space.

Really nice cafe, lovely food and friendly staff. Felt very covid safe in the cafe and when walking around the garden centre. Can definately recommend.

We went to Kings for lunch today and were both absolutely horrified at the lack of safety measures for COVID 19. People were queuing - NO masks Staff serving - NO masks Only one small piece of Perspex along the queuing area where you pay The tables were all very close together. I was almost shoulder to shoulder to the people sitting behind me. The water machine is surrounded by three tables, two of which were so close they were actually touching it so diners sitting there had everyone who wanted to use the machine, which were quite a few, breathing all over them. The waiters and waitresses obviously have to lean right over the tables and customers when serving the meals. I know it would be very hot for them to wear a mask but surely that would be better than catching/spreading the virus! Totally irresponsible

Since our last visit part of the restaurant has had a refit, which is nice and has a modern feel. I would recommend larger and clearer writing on the menu boards. The food is nice for a garden centre. Whilst they have created a one way system around the building, in the actual cafe i felt that more tables should have been taken out to create the 1m+ at tables. Where we sat we could quite easily touched the people on the next table to us in the middle section of the cafe or maybe implement plastic dividers. Whilst it isn't compulsory for staff to wear face visors, I think this would protect the staff. The one poor waitress was trying desperately not to come close to whilst serving us by tilting her head back. The way that you are served at the tills. I think this could be re thought out post covid. The lady next to me in the queue ended up, right by the side of me as staff were pushing the trays down to take more orders. Impressed that the table are wiped down and chair after use. Just a few tweaks and it would fine.

Tasty lunch, really big sandwiches, nice amount of chips. Also had a beautiful lasagne, very tasty. Plenty of meat in the beef and mushroom pie too!

Because of covid they have had to move the entrance. I appreciate the need for this but unfortunately no provision has been made for the disabled. To reach the entrance you have to negotiate a steep slope and this is not possible for people who have mobility problems. As there was no obvious disability entrance I went in the front door. I was pulled up by a member of staff for using the wrong entrance. I explained that I was disabled and could not use the other entrance. She just repeated that I had used the wrong entrance and gave no indication of how I was supposed to get into the shop. As I was already in the shop I carried on to the restaurant where the staff were friendly and the lunch was excellent. Before covid we were regular visitors to the garden centre but after today we will not be visiting again as disabled are clearly not welcome

Had lunch on the terrace. Monday, most of the tables were booked by couples who were of the affluent retired tribe. Excellent food and very pleasant staff. First rate roast of the day and excellent salads. Date of visit: August 2020

We often pop into the cafe/restaurant on our way home from our dog walks. I look forward to a cup of tea and maybe a piece of ginger sponge which is lovely. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I would recommend anyone to try this place for a good lunch too.Good value for money.

We live very locally and visit the cafe often. You can’t beat the selection, and the warm scotch egg with chutney is to die for! Staff are very warm and friendly, we love it! It’s lovely at Xmas too with their huge range of decorations.

This is our second home. Staff always friendly and helpful, food is fantastic with great choice. We meet up with fiends on a regular basis and have not felt rushed at all.

Took my grandad for a birthday lunch at King's. After asking what he'd like I went and ordered. I just let him sit down without knowing where he sat. But I did let the staff know I wasn't sure where we were sat. They managed to find us OK with the food and it was delicious. Very generous portions

My husband and I have a meal at Kings usually at lunch times. Also meet with a group of people to have a meal and chat! Staff are friendly and helpful which gives a good ambience.

It is rare to comment ‘too much choice’ but a very wide range of dishes are displayed on many black boards . It can be difficult to read quickly if you have a queue behind you. Lovely accommodating staff,food well cooked Very busy

We were in the area so stopped by for a coffee only to find not even the cafe allows dogs and we had our dog with us.

A lovely lunch, tasty ,hot and good value for money. The meat was tender and there was plenty on the plate. One person had the fish which was fresh and tasty. Will be back again

This restaurant within an excellent garden centre is one of our favourite places to eat. Very extensive menu, pleasant staff, plenty of seating and high quality and plentiful food. This time I had a roast beef dinner at about £8 and it only just fitted on the plate. Big thick and well cooked slices of beef with all the trimmings. Can't fault it. We all had something different and can't wait to go again. Very highly recommended.

Go here regularly with my friend. Food is always good. Can get very busy. Service is always good. Home made Scott egg is fantastic.

We visited this garden centre whilst on holiday and were very impressed by the size and stock, the restaurant was first class with an extensive menu all at reasonable prices, will definitely call again when in the area

This supposed to be a Latte, when question about it I was told it should not have froth on it, it is Cappuccino that has the froth. More coffee could be added or she could put some froth on it. Not happy at all

Best homemade cakes around! Often quite busy in the summer but just goes to show how good their food is, you can even buy them in the farm shop to take home ;)

Visited on Father’s Day, it was extremely busy. This was expected. Behind the serving counter was chaos. We ordered 3 meals and 3 drinks. The person who takes the orders, also makes the drinks, serves the cakes, and takes the money. This results in too many people behind the counter getting in each other’s way. Wrong drinks and cakes are placed on wrong trays.

Called in on a busy Sunday to buy plants to brighten the garden and decided to stay for lunch

Visited for a quick lunch, what a slick operation! They have obviously worked hard at getting the smoothest of service just right, amazing choice on blackboards served very swiftly, will definitely be back when next in the area to visit family

We came in on Saturday for lunch.The menu boards are so overpowering,that it's hard to stand at the counter and read them all,whilst other people are trying to get served.

We cycle here from Exeter often and always enjoy their freshly baked scones.It is a very popular cafe so sometimes busy but the hardworking staff keep queues to a minimum. However busy we have always found a seat There is also a large choice of delicious cakes and lunches. If you are not a dog owner then it is a pleasant change not to be sharing a cafe with lots of dogs, as seems the norm everywhere else. Only assistance dogs welcomed here. We have noticed also how very kind and considerate the staff are to elderly or disabled customers.

It’s the first time my husband & I have ever visited this garden centre. It was recommended by my in-laws so thought we would have a vist. It was so windy & cold outside that we decided to warm up in the cafe. It was Sunday so decided to order 2 roast Turkey meals plus a tea & a coffee. No sooner had we sat down our piping hot roast meals appeared along with sauces & a jug of gravy.

Visited Kings this morning and decided to have breakfast, tea came in a cup had asked for a mug, fair enough they replaced it, food arrived presentation wasn't good, toast had a fried egg on it, no butter, ok the food tasted good, but I eat with my eyes and what I saw wasn't very appetising, please invest in some side plates and don't try to cram it all on 1 plate.

We get really frustrated by cafes that think everyone eats their lunch between noon and 2pm and after that they only serve tea and cakes.

Sooo helpful every time I’ve been...with plant and flower advice info and loading larger things into my car. Above and beyond service, It’s so rare!

Called in with family for some plants and bushes Decided on lunch - Great choice - delicious food great value and very friendly helpful staff A really enjoyable lunch and will be back soon

Fantastic meal again. We had the soups, so many choices .thank you. Loved your new member of staff on the counter, what a lovely chap.

Love this place for lunch or a catch up..... there is a huge choice of food on the menu....and the cakes to choose from.... had flan, and chips today ....large seating area.... it's always busy but you can usually find a seat.... It's expanded alot over the last few years... A great place to eat and socialise..

Visited with four adults and 2 children, 4 roasts, omelette and a lasagne. Roast is served nicely, with a plate of crackling and extra jug of gravy. Potatoes were nice and crispy and there was a nice selection of veg. Shame not to get a Yorkshire pudding with pork but I’m sure it’s a case of just asking. Lasagne portion wasn’t huge but plenty enough.

Very disappointed Food overpriced and very poor quality I had a beef and mushroom pie witch comes with 4 pieces of meat and about 5/6 mushrooms topped up with a granulated bistro gravy Staff grumpy and careless Will never see me again

A lovely choice of food, and the homemade cakes are yummy, the staff are very friendly, can well recommend, would come again

I,m thinking don,t eat here after lunchtime. Ordered 2 roast dinners,one was sent back and the other was pretty poor. Meat overheated after being cooked,potatoes burnt.Don,t send out inferior food after the rush at lunchtime, make sure it,s checked kitchen staff. Floor staff were excellent and sorted out problem, but embarrassing for them.Not cheap at about £10 each.

Love visiting here...such lovely food..lots of delicious choices..the cakes......sat outside today on the sun terrace.. great place for gifts too...

Always good choice on the menu Good portion size Service ok prices ok. Free parking and you have the chance to shop gifts/plants/food etc.

We took our Nan out for a birthday meal and had the turkey roast dinner, which was lovely. I was especially impressed with the waiting staff, who were exceptionally friendly. We had extra gravy and cranberry sauce (which was delicious) and cakes for pudding. Our two veggies had bubble and squeak and chips and both were happy. It’s not very cheap but it’s really nice food and a really lovely atmosphere.

Lovely lunch with extremely good lasagna. Very friendly staff. Bit noisy and warm inside. certainly come bck.

you have such a wide menu,the food is delicious, hot & very tasty, the banana split is very large & scrumptious, very friendly staff, you will go back again & again, do try Kings you will not be disappointed.They do veggie & gluten free dishes.

the menu board has everything you can think of on it ,plus a specials board ,every drink you could possibly want and food was excellent and reasonably priced. The Staff were friendly and helpful too

I'm surprised I'm writing this poor review as my experience of the breakfasts served at Kings has always been very positive. However today I decided to have lunch - what a mistake! I ordered lasagne and chips from the always pleasant ladies behind the counter and it came really quickly considering how busy they were.

Not one of a larger chain, this garden centre restaurant offers a very wide range of foods to suit all pockets and tastes. It is a spacious restaurant that is always busy and does a very good Sunday lunch.

Staff are very friendly and accomodating here, it is always busy, food is very reasonbly priced and good and has been for many years. Whoever manages this part of the business knows what they are doing

yet again went to Kings Garden Centre for breakfast. full English with tea included and best of all served on a hot plate. staff excellent with customers, polite greetings when entering the Centre, good service all round and a pleasant thank you when you depart. best breakfast in Exmouth!!

Visit for prebooked lunch on Sunday mother's day so very busy. Order taken promptly food delivered quickly, hot and big portions impressive that 3 orders of beef one rare one standard and and one well done were delivered exactly as ordered pudding large and delicious and all at a excellent price. Just a pity we do not live in area otherwise we will be regulars

I am used to eating very good food as my late father was for many years a chef to the Queen.

I like Kings for food for a lunchtime break. The staff are helpful and polite, the food is ample, hot and delivered to you table promptly. However, I wish they would spare the customers the awful musak they pump out - most especially annoying in the toilets.

My Wife wanted to try a breakfast here and at £7.99 for their basic it should have been good at that price.

14 of us attended a family lunch - a table had been reserved, it's extremley popular and a lovely setting in the garden centre. I didn't get time to explore the shop itself but it looked good. I ordered the steak and mushroom pie with veg and it was very nice, and other members of the family enjoyed their lunches too, my sister had bubble and squeak with egg and ham she enjoyed hers. However my niece ordered the pate and unfortunately this was off and I'd say by a couple of days, it smelt like the smelliest of cheeses. However, they did offer to exchange it straight away but my niece is young (10) and it put her off, which is understandable, she had something else and they didn't charge for her meal. I would go here again it wouldn't let that discourage me as they dealt with it quickly, efficiently and apologetically.

Lovely place for shopping for the garden but food and gifts too. They also do vouchers which made a lovely birthday present, and we always stay for some food as it’s very nice with lots of choice. Though I would also says that’s its downfall. Too much choice can be confusing and overwhelming, and though the food is good, I wonder if less variety of dishes were there, it would allow for better quality of cooking & prep. When I say there is a lot of choice, I really mean a lot!

Kings provide hot, freshly cooked food at an affordable price and furthermore deliver your order to your table quite promptly.

It's hard to say what makes this garden centre/restaurant so appealing. But appealing it certainly is. The restaurant is wonderful. Yummy cakes and coffee, and a lunch menu to die for. Although usually very busy the service is remarkably fast - and the food well cooked. The staff are friendly and efficient. How much of the turnover is 'garden' and how much 'food', I have no idea, but with probably upwards of 80 -100 covers, the food element must be the envy of many outlets specialising in food only. If I want somewhere that can guarantee well cooked food in a pleasant environment, I normally aim for Kings.

Really helpful and nice staff, the food was good and the portions and really good size.

My husband had lovely roast pork, plenty of crackling. I had steak & mushroom pie with vegetables. We were both very disappointed with the roast potatoes they were dry and difficult to actually cut. Staff are always friendly however busy they are. Desserts & cakes plentiful. Lemon meringue was tasty. The meal was hot.

We arrived at Kings about 1pm it was extremely busy. Had to wait awhile to be served. The food was excellent and nothing was trouble for the staff, they were pleasant and very accommodating. Well done..

I went here today with my husband and my mum and dad who live in this area.

Lovely selection of items for the garden many quality gifts and a good sized cafe offering a varied selection of food and a nice cup of tea although there were many beverages on offer

Eaten lunch here several times, the food is nice, good value for money. Staff are friendly and food is served quickly.

I would personally not call this a restaurant more like a very large cafeteria (it seats over 200 as food is fairly standard salads soups or meat and two vegetables., however the food is served by friendly and helpful staff. There was a nice choice of puddings and cakes to consume on the spot or buy and take away. Our party included a disabled family member and the disabled space for parking are excellent. There is enough space for wheel chairs & walking frames between tables which has been sympathetically planned. The disabled toilet and other loos are outside reach by a tarmac path under cover & are clean .We were advised by a family member to get there early as it gets very busy and not to sit under the atria of the roof as noise levels get high when busy, so not good for the hard of hearing. Our party enjoyed some prawn sandwiches, but some us had leek and potato soup which although nice and hot was tasteless - shame.The puddings were lovely the best was raspberry and apple sponge and custard.

A great garden cente something for everybody the food is amazing and served very quick a very popular place for locals

The lady called Alexa was so so helpful she couldnt do enough for us. She spent some loads of time talking to us about what would be right for our garden and was really knowledgeable. All the staff are great here and welcoming.

This review is for the eatery at the garden centre. On a busy Sunday lunch time the service was fast, efficient and friendly. The food was reasonably priced with a wide selection and plenty of gluten free choices. Despite the large number of customers the food was quick to arrive and served to us by friendly and efficient staff. We will be visiting again.

This cannot be described as a restaurant, at best it is a café. Food varies in quality, and sometimes is cold. The wait time varies also. Something needs to be done about the noise levels if kids are brought in the noise levels is awful. There have also been the introduction of way too many tables.Tthe cleanliness is also debatable.

I was visiting Exmouth area with my mother who has walking problems we dropped in for coffee. We then ventured into town for shopping after we had got what we needed we tried to find a nice place to eat that doesn't involve too much walking so after a bit of frustrating hunting we decided to return to kings garden centre and was glad we did. The service was very quick and I loved that I could have a smaller meal with a discount and decided on the chicken curry which I have to say was the best I have ever tasted it was amazing. My mother had the ham cheese panini and loved how well it was filled and cooked she really enjoyed the coleslaw. Sadly I was way too full to try one of the amazing puddings on the board. I will be back soon maybe just to try the puddings. Great value great food well done

As I was at the garden centre getting my tomatoe plants I decided to grab something to eat. Wow talk about menu boards. Loads of them. I would say it was pretty highly priced but that certainly did put the hoards of people coming in.Ham egg and chips was £8 . I thought that was rather a lot.It's a very nice cafe all the same. If you can't find something you like on this huge menu then I would be very surprised.

We have had a very enjoyable lunch. As usual the staff were friendly and efficient. The only thing that could do with changing is the tables aren't given a good clean.

Lot's of choice, too much if anything.Any queue to get served is soon sorted, and food is delivered quickly.More a Cafeteria than a Restaurant, but you're eating lunch, not dining.

An amazing display of plants, Garden furniture and everything you need for your garden. PLUS a fantastic restaurant serving good food from locally sourced producers.

Good range of food for all tastes. Mum had an excellent mixed seafood salad, crab, prawns, smoked salmon etc. I had the roast beef. My request for no yorkshire pudding was carried out and I got the most amazing range of vegetables: carrots, cauliflower, green cabbage, red cabbage and swede as well as roast potatoes. Plenty of gravy in a boat. We arrived early on a Monday lunchtime and it was already filling up, but no queues. I suspect I got an early serving of roast beef as some of my beef was rather dry and overcooked, I think I may have had the first slices off the joint, but there was so much it didn't matter that much. Too full to consider dessert.Plenty of space around the tables so room for walkers etc. The plastic garden chairs were rather too low for the tables, but fortunately a nearby customer told me that there were cushions in the cupboard under the cutlery. I didn't notice a sign, which would have useful if we hadn't had helpful table neighbours.I also bought some excellent scones and saffron cake from the shop.

Staff are welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble. Huge menu. Small meals available. They will accommodate any request if possible. Eat in or out. Outside has just been revamped. Dog friendly outside. Highly recommend.

Nice surroundings and pleasant staff.The food was served in a timely manner and tasted fine - nothing outstanding just good food.

We occasionally buy food from here, eggs, cold meat etc.I recently bought a pork pie as it looked particularly tempting and pork pies are a particular favourite of mine for a snack lunch.Whilst the one I bought looked perfect it was probably the worst pork pie I have ever tasted. The pastry was for from being crisp, more like leathery and the thick underside was very under cooked - almost raw. The meat content was tasteless and poor in quality.I most certainly do NOT recommend this product to anyone wishing a pork pie snack.

Bit pricey for a garden centre but always good food and well presented. Always good service as well.

This place is just up the road from the out-laws so we tend to come here fro lunch each time. Which is a great shame as I love the way mum-in-law cooks veggies. Oh well, back to the task at hand.So, a garden centre with a restaurant - not a novel idea and conveniently located - for the family that is, just outside of town.Food is decent and often a reasonable sized portions. Paersonally I like my veg so would happily have more. But the veg they cook tends to be more than just your usual simple fair - red cabbage for example. There is usually quite a few different veg on the plate, though the vegetarian optins are a little flat (but have veggie gravy).For the carnivores, the roasts look properly cooked and by all accounts are very tasty and plenty of it too. There are a good selection of traditional puddings too.Prices are definitely reasonable and the place is always busy (on a Sunday).Would we come here again? Bet you we will this coming weekend :-)

Kings garden centre really does serve lovely meals, the nurseries itself do some good priced plants & gifts. As a vegan I am pleasantly surprised to find they cater for me & it's a proper meal, not just the usual jacket potato. The nut roast is a great hit.

I visit most the time, the staff is very friendly and my mum works there. It's the best place in Exmouth to have a cream tea, not to expensive and the staff put loads of jam and cream on the plate.love this place will come with family when I can!!

Went on Sunday with my parents for coffee n cake . And we were not disappointed my parents had a mug of coffee and a cake me and my sister had hot chocolate and a cake each . Very happy and not over priced at all would recommend the cafe always busy staff helpful .

good bacon sandwich and breakfast bap - coffee improved of late now very pleasant. Staff always happy to help. Seating not to most comfortable - plastic stackable chairs, but clean.

Went to Kings today for Sunday Lunch. Well this place never fails The Roast Turkey dinner and the Turkey and Ham Pie were delicious. Plenty of it and piping hot. The food arrives quickly and well presented. As people have said it's very popular and gets busy but it's well worth the wait. The Menus extensive and gluten free options are available. The staff are always accommodating and nothing is too much trouble. Great for wheelchairs and plenty of room.

The only downside to Kings is its popularity! The cafe was really busy, but a roast beef dinner was well priced and tasty. Service good and quick, friendly staff. The menu is very large, its a bit hard to choose when in a queue when presented with such huge choice.
