The Exeter Inn, Thorverton in Mid Devon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Popped in for their monthly curry night and had a really good homemade beef curry with a couple of real ales. Very reasonable priced compared to other pubs, so will definitely be back for more. A really nice authentic pub with a warm atmosphere. Bar lady was very helpful and made us feel very welcome, especially as it was our first visit.

A lovely traditional pub. Welcoming, friendly and comfortable. Good food at a very reasonable price and served with care. Wine really cool and beer good..... We look forward to our next visit....

Excellent and friendly village pub with a great welcome every time we visit. I highly recommend their steak nights .and range of independent local ales.

The food is excellent . The staff are friendly and ensure that you are happy with your meal. Would highly recommend

Lovely country pub with warm atmosphere, the food is tasty from the chicken and leek mushroom pie, oh and boy the home made sausage rolls that bursting with flavour, the deserts are also homemade treacle tart with clotted cream and the chock brownies to die for, but more than that is the welcome you get they go above and beyond to make you feel at home … definitely recommend

A great local, with a warm and friendly welcome, good food at sensible prices. Sunday lunch is particularly good. Well worth a visit.

Having known this lovely pub for 24 years, it's such a joy to see the Exeter Inn flourishing under the stewardship of Rick and Matt. Always a warm, genuine welcome and ambience. All welcome, including wet and muddy people and four legged friends (including horses, but not in the bar!). The Sunday roast is delicious, huge, locally sourced produce and so reasonably priced. The mince pies and sausage rolls on the bar on Boxing day were awesome! Well worth the three mile walk from our home in a neighbouring village!

Well I went to the Exeter inn in Thorverton just stopped for a break after riding and I got myself a most wonderful chicken and mushroom pie. Absolutely wonderful and as always the service was excellent. So with belly full it was time to head off until next time I pass thar way

Cycling around the Exe Valley and stopped here for lunch. The best ever Nut Roast, delicious veg and wonderful friendly service. My son had roast chicken and advised it was fabulous! Added to all of this was how reasonably priced the meals were. Many thanks !

We popped in on a whim, as we were driving past the village, and were very glad to get a table as there was a celebration going on. Matt recommended the home made sausage rolls and lamb pasty. We had one of each, and they were quite simply FABULOUS! Crispy pastry on both, delicious lamb in the pasty and the sausage roll with stuffing and apple inside was just fantastic! The sausage roll alone was worth the drive from Exeter, but the friendly service, quirky styling and great local beer needs praise too! We’ll be back soon!!

Stopped in for Sunday lunch. My wife had the home made vegetarian nut roast and I had the Beef and Chicken option. Both were superb with large portions of veg and gravy. Fantastic service and a great selection of Ales (Doom is recomended). The venue itself is steeped in village history with a fine collection of memorabilia around the place. Locals were just so friendly, we ended up chatting for ages. Such a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, I wish I lived closer to it, so I could call it my local!

Fantastic food and service in a lovely old pub on the way back from Exeter. Food was home cooked and fresh, and large portions. Thank you for having us :)

Food was top class pub grub, generous portions and a great selection of beverages. The staff make you so welcome, dogs are loved a treated with treats. Can't fault the place, very traditional pub with excellent decor which will definitely start conversations 5⭐

Arrived during a 88k bike ride in the middle of the afternoon to a great welcome. Lovely people, lovely welcome, log fire, good pub food, excellent beer and coffee and bike friendly. Highly recommend this place and will come back. Thank you hosts

Thank you for the most excellent and reasonably priced buffet lunch you prepared for our group of bell ringers today. The buffet items were thoughtfully chosen, the contents very tasty (special mention for the sausage rolls!) and attractively-presented with quantity more than sufficient to satisfy the needs of bell ringers who are noted for their appreciation of good food and beer! We would have no hesitation in making a repeat visit at some time in the future should we arrange another bell ringing tour in the locality.

Called in on a Friday night. Matt & Rick are excellent land lords and the staff are so friendly. The food is excellent and the beer is spot on. Will definitely be back, just a pity I live so far away.

Called in for a light lunch of sandwiches and soup. Excellent in every way- quality and quanity. Very good value as well. Friendly pleasant staff. Thoroughly recommend. The sort of place that really deserves to do well. Support this pub!!
