The New Inn in Exeter

The best Sunday roast. We go as a family regularly….just can’t fault it! Tasty, hot. Staff amazing. Compliments to chef! Can’t wait to come back! Thank you New Inn

My Fiance and I went down for a Sunday Roast ...well I did but he loves a burger. I had the Roast beef..it was delicious. Plenty of choice with the vegetables. The beef was lovely and tender. All freshly cooked ! Only downside was that I couldn't eat it all...I should of asked for doggy bag. My Fiance had the Hunters chicken burger. He also thoroughly enjoyed his lunch. It's by far his favourite place for a burger. The staff are lovely and friendly. Really good value for money!!! So lucky to have this wonderful local just around the corner.

Had a lovely meal here. The staff are amazing and the food very very good. We visit every couple of weeks and are never disappointed. Always find the staff very helpful and knowledgeable.

Sunday lunch was absolutely first class. No waiting as all reserved tables had names on. Good selection but Sundays is a. Roast day for me. We had the beef with a selection of vegetables cooked to perfection. This is fast becoming the best place yo eat in Exeter.

We went to The New Inn for my sister in laws birthday. 4 of our party decided to go for the steak. One of them was really tough and had a large amount of fat. No waitress came over to check whether every thing was okay with the meal. When they came to clear the plates we explained that one of the was awful and she actually offered to cook us another one but we had all finished by then. We asked to speak to the Manager who did not come over at first she just sent the waitress back. We asked again to speak to the Manager and eventually she did come over but refused to discount the meal at all saying it was already cheap because it was in a deal. I explained that it should still be edible to which she replied he ate 3/4 of it. She then bought the bill over to which we refused to pay at which point she threatened to call the police. All we wanted was for her to acknowledge that there was an issue and to offer even a £5 discount. She eventually agreed to take £5 off the bill “to get us out of her pub”!!I have been a Manger for years and would never speak to a customer the way she spoke to us. Absolutely disgusting. Will not be going back. Avoid at all cost.

Excellent all round. From the welcome until we left. Couldn’t fault the meal and the price was really good. We have eaten here several times this year and never been disappointed. Would recommend to anyone.

The tables are still very sticky and the curry was over microwaved and very dry - won’t be going back

Excellent meal last night had fish & chips really hot and plenty full . Great service friendly staff .glad to see it’s getting back to the way we all have enjoyed the new inn for many years .

Excellent lunch , hot , tasty, plentiful . Lovely staff and very good price plus loyalty lunch scheme . Do give them a try , we’ll certainly be back .

Popped in for lunch and was our first visit to this pub. A really lovely meal, tasty and nicely presented. The Lunchtime club menu provided great value for money. Friendly, polite and prompt service in a relaxed environment. The menu provided an excellent range of food including several vegetarian options . Well worth a visit and we shall certainly be going again !

Lovely roast with chose of meat ,really good value for money. Staff are friendly . Cosy restaurant would definitely come here again

Sorry but NOT VERY GOOD HERE AGAIN . Thought we would give a chance after are last time here . That was a bad ideal . When ordering ours drinks we where told no pimms and lemonade. The kids meal was not worth ordering 1 potatoe 1 slice of beef not much vegetables NOT WORTH THE MONEY £8:95 plus to much gravy on it . My adults meal to small covered in gravy again not worth the money. When ordering a dessert after being told we could have it Then told we can’t. Service was very poor. I have been using the new inn for many years . SORRY VERY DISAPPOINTING

Have been coming to The New Inn for many years. The service today was dreadful. And they weren't busy! Our food took about 45 minutes to arrive. Had to go up to the bar to ask for a dessert. Our dirty dishes were not taken away. A large table near us hadn't had any of its dishes cleared either. The food was okay but nothing special. Mine should have come with salad but didn't. After waiting so long I couldn't be bothered to mention it. Very disappointing. Doubt we will return

Worst service I’ve ever received. Waited 1hr 20mins for our Sunday lunch to arrive, despite asking on 4 occasions how long it would be, and each time being told it is being plated up. The food finally arrived by the manager but surprisingly no apology for the shocking service. The beef and vegetables were extremely undercooked. We ordered dessert when our roast was brought to the table and it still took half an hour for the desert to be brought out. Apple crumble undercook and no ‘crumble’ and 3 scoops of ice cream which arrived completely melted like a smoothie. Took the ‘ice cream’ back to the kitchen to be told there’s an issue with the freezer, again, no apology. Not once did the manager apologise for the extremely poor service to our table or the other 5/6 tables surrounding. To top it off, the table in front of us were served their dessert brought before their main had been plated and served to them! And the table behind us arrived 30 minutes after us but received their roast before us and finished it before ours had arrived. Absolute shambles since it’s been taken over - would NOT recommend.

Had to ask for GF options as not clear on the menu but when I spoke to the staff there are many GF meals . Have GF fryers and no cross contamination. spoke to the chef Sean who again reassured me of the GF options and can adapt many meals to suit. Very accommodating. Lovely mid week meal with friends.

wow - just wow - Sunday lunch here is amazing - all freshly cooked veg, meat ( i had the roast beef) was cooked to perfection - the only thing id say is - needs to make own Yorkshire puddings and it would have been MEGA!! such a real shame that the talent of this chef wasn't appreciated more on the day we were in (11/06/2023) only the 3 of us in for lunch - 3 of us ate - 2x roast chicken and 1 x roast beef - this place is in my list of top 10 for Sunday lunches in south Devon and we will be back!

Weve been to the new inn a few times now and the foods has always been amazing went back and was told it was under management and my what can i say BIG mistake the food was awful and the portions were really small, no more fresh chips they have gone to frozen and the quality of food was very disappointing to what we have had in the past. Looks like this is another pub that's gonna be ruined. After the food we had we won't be going back

Popped in to the New Inn twice in 3 days Fish and Chips - amazing Sunday roast - Exceptional Friendly helpful and caring staff We highly recommend The New Inn Alphington

We stopped here after driving around trying to find somewhere and almost giving up. Popped in here for a drink and peruse of the menu on the last night of holidays and thought we'd stay. Goodness me. One of the best meals we had in Devon! Huge portions, all fresh and everyone is happy. Quite a feat to keep 4 very different people happy that range from the age of 6 to 41! Thoroughly recommend

had the friday fish which was encredible the batter melted in the mouth nice drop of thatchers haze served by head barmaid Lauren who went beyondt he call of duty helping my son to the rest room defintly be back

Had a brilliant night with my bestie in the new inn at Alphington Vibrant atmosphere with good company Real local pub Thanks to Luke the bartender for looking after us and ordering us a taxi

booked a table for 4 for the Thursday steak night. 2 steak meals AND a bottle of house wine for under £25 The steak was perfect for all of us plus the trimmings and the wine was lovely.Atmosphere was just right and plenty of room. DEFINITELY GOING BACK. pre book so as not to be disappointed. They do other meal deals on different nights which if this is anything to go buy will satisfy one and all and the lunch deal also looks excellent value

Had the fish and chips absolutely delicious Would have given them full marks but the drinks were expensive Special thanks to Lauren for being helpful

Even better than my mums Nothing was too. Much trouble for Trudy and her team Excellent Sunday roast

Great food, good atmosphere and friendly staff, we will be back 👍. Trudy and the team made our visit very pleasurable.

Lovely friendly welcome and absolutely delicious food. Delight to be greeted with a menu that has a number of homemade dishes which aren't on every other pub menu in the country. Very pleasurable hour spent and we'll definitely be back

We met with my step son for a meal and catch up. This is my local and how lucky am I. It was busy but the service was good. The food was superb, good beer selection and the bill was so reasonable. Best to book...

Terrible service - if only the waitress paid more attention to the customers rather than her phone!!!

Had the. Fish and chips with mushy peas Fish was rather Dry and unappetising Service was ok but the lager was expensive No atmosphere the pub has gone down sadly Needs to up its game or will fall by the wayside.

Husband had an appointment nearby so we popped in to the new inn for lunch, this was our first visit but won’t be the last, the food was piping hot and tasted great, my husband said the Fish & Chips were the best he’d had,...

Visiting relative and ordered takeaway food. Very efficient and helpful. Food was delicious, will definitely order again! Excellent value for money.

great to be back at the pub with Sophie and the girls thanks to luke and trudy for our delecious meal

Went in my local the New inn today Sadly I will not be setting foot again in there Expense larger that had no bubbles Needs to drop his prices Little wonder no one in the village uses it !

Best pub in Exeter lovely homemade lunch Sausage and cider casserole cooked by owner and chef Luke Can’t wait till Monday when we can drink inside again.

Lovely roast dinner just like me mother used to make Me and Shirley enjoyed Might become a regular habit if it tastes this good every week

Lovely roast dinner 🥘 with all the trimmings Arrived hot and was greatly appreciated shame about the price as a pensioner

Wonderful Sunday roast for me and the family Piping hot and arrived on time Potatoes light and fluffy just like mother used to make

Thank you for my delicious Chicken and Chips Thoroughly enjoyed them better than the well known chicken company who I will mot name

Nice Turkey sandwich 🥪 The pub is a bit dated with its decor and very little atmosphere but the food is very good.

Expensive for what was fish and chips Fish was nice but the chips were hard and Bland Nice pub for a drink 🥃 as good cosy atmosphere But would not eat here again.

Decided to have a New Inn takeaway for a birthday treat. One Austrian style chicken, one steak, one cod and chips. Delivery right on time, food all piping hot and plentiful. The batter on the fish was still lovely and crispy, the steak still rare,...

Went in on Sunday the place was empty Still had to wait to get served Eventually after I went outside could smell weed And the manager was out there chatting I reported the smoking to Luke but he turned a blind eye Will not be back.

Popped in for lunch. Very reasonably priced lunchtime menu. Exceptionally nice staff. Fab food (kids chicken nuggets home made) and winner winner Home made Chips, yay!

Tuvimos una comida de cumpleaños aquí anoche, éramos un grupo de diecinueve en total.Nuestras comidas salieron todas juntas, bien calientes y muy agradables.También sirven algunos postres realmente deliciosos, todos hechos a mano.Excelente volveremos en breve.

Con la familia cenamos en el New Inn ALPHINGTON para cenar nuestra primera visita desde marzo de 2020Me sentí muy seguro incluso cuando estaba ocupado y Luke y su equipo son amables y profesionalesComí pescado y papas fritas con frijoles horneados, mi favorito, fue excepcional y uno de los mejores que he probadoMi esposa tenía panceta que estaba perfectamente preparada y sabrosaSus cervezas siempre están bien conservadas y servidas, Moretti fue perfectaGracias Luke por otra gran noche. Nos alegra estar de regreso. Nos vemos la semana que viene.

Comimos aquí, personal muy agradable, pero la comida fue bastante terrible. Nuestra hija había elegido el lugar, así que no queríamos molestarla criticando la comida, pero ella también estaba decepcionada. Teníamos hamburguesas; las hamburguesas de ternera eran como versiones baratas de supermercado y mi "hamburguesa" de pollo era de hecho una pechuga de pollo frita. Freír no le hizo ningún favor; estaba seco y coriáceo. Una verdadera lástima, tal vez fue una mala noche.

Mi esposo y yo tuvimos la cena más deliciosa en el New Inn anoche. Comida fantástica y un servicio amable muy agradable. Distanciamiento social en sitio y gel antibacteriano disponible en la entrada. Ambos nos sentimos muy cómodos en el restaurante y felizmente lo visitaremos nuevamente. ¡Bien hecho, Luke y equipo!

Had the fish and chips takeaway and the fish was delecioucs locally caught off Starcross with lovely chips will Have again next week or might try the Sunday roast lamb

Had the takeaway roast it was nice but By the time it arrived it was cold and the gravy was lumpy can’t recommend

Had the roast dinner delivered but it was cold Not good as it was an expensive treat for my Grandma would not order the Sunday roast again

Nice pint of bitter but very expensive shame as I would drink here more often The lady behind the bar was very good and served me right away very nice lady I think she was called Judy or Trudy very nice

Junto con muchos, actualmente estamos confinados a los cuarteles.Escuchamos que en New Inn ALPHINGTON estamos apoyando la situación con entregas de comida y lo probamosRosbif asado con todos los adornos y pollo al curry Thai GreenIncluso en un domingo ajetreado, nuestras comidas se entregaron a tiempo y calientesAmbas comidas fueron excepcionalesMuchísimas gracias a LUKE y su equipo de New InnTrabajando en nuestro próximo pedido

Wow what can I say apart from yummy !!! Arrived nice And hot and the gravy was really tasty Well done the new inn x

Gracias a Luke y al equipo, acabamos de disfrutar de una hermosa entrega de New Inn.La comida era fresca, encantadora y caliente y simplemente perfecta. ¡Gracias por hacer la comida de cumpleaños de mi esposo mucho mejor que una comida para llevar habitual! !Incluso tuvimos brownies de chocolate para budín, ¡también fueron increíbles! !Gracias nuevamente, podemos recomendar de todo corazón lo que se necesita en estos tiempos difíciles. ! ???? xx

Me encanta este pub por comida. He estado aquí bastantes veces ahora y es mi "ir a" por un gran valor, sabroso banquete de almuerzo. El club de almuerzo tiene una excelente relación calidad-precio, es una gran idea y un trato genial. No me puedo quejar de la comida: casera, buena calidad y tamaño de porción decente para la hora del almuerzo. Ganador! !

Tengo que decir que cuando hemos estado allí, el vino no ha sido genial.También es como sentarse en el lobby de un hotel.Sin ambienteLa comida se ve muy bien y mucha gente parece ir allí para comer.Se cierra temprano si no hay mucha gente allí.Esto es más de un restaurante.

The New Inn hace un trato a la hora del almuerzo (sin barrera de edad) con un principal a las 7. 95 y 2 cursos para 8. 95 sin reducción en la cantidad. Los cuatro elegimos los champiñones de ajo como entrante seguidos de BBQ Chicken Melt como plato principal. La intención era terminar con un postre fuera del menú, pero ninguno de nosotros tenía espacio para más. El servicio fue tan bueno como todo lo que he experimentado en restaurantes mucho más caros y toda la comida es fresca y preparada a pedido. ¡Probablemente la mejor relación calidad-precio que hemos tenido en un establecimiento para comer!

Eight of us went here today for my mother's 89th birthday. A friend had recommended the place. I'm so glad she did! We all chose a 3 course Sunday lunch and I have to say everything was fabulous! The beef was so tasty and melted in the mouth, vegetables cooked to perfection, and my parents said the lamb was delicious too. There were 3 different starters and 3 puds and we tried all of them between our group. Everything was faultless. On top of excellent food, the service was wonderful as well! All the staff were super attentive and very friendly. I'm so pleased that my mum's birthday treat went so well. Thank you all at the New Inn.We will definitely return !

We were recommended to try this place out for food by friends. I don’t ever leave reviews or make complaints but on this occasion I feel that I needed too after seeing the “rate us on trip advisor sign”.

Reviewed the new in before and I gotta say it's always good...the servers & atmosphere is always pretty chilled, the food is great a comes out pretty quick the menus not huge but what they do they do really well with a good vegitarian/ vegan option. One point book always book ...go try it you won't be disappointed

Lovely friendly pub Order 2 glasses of wine and get the whole bottle Thursday night 2 amazing steaks and bottle of wine £24

12 de nuestra familia en 3 generaciones eligieron el New Inn para un domingo almuerzo de cumpleaños

Fuimos al New Inn para tomar unas copas y una comida y estuvimos muy contentos de haberlo hecho.

Came here for a birthday meal of a good friend of ours . Not been here in years and the decoration is really nice. The doors opening out to the tables and chairs are lovely. The drinks were very reasonable prices. Asked about our table and the lady snapped at me it’s not ready yet , wait until I’ve set it. I was like o k .... just wanted to sit down ! So stood and waited 10 mins for her .., looked at the menu, a bit small, not much choice .. quite expensive. Nothing under £9.50 ,I honestly think that’s a bit expensive for lasagna or chilli! Anyway ordered steak as it was bogof and a bottle of wine for £23.95. When it arrived it looked quite small , the peppercorn sauce was bloody lovely! Ate that then ordered pudding . I finally decided on chocolate brownie and ice cream, again SMALL! But nice enough. I think i’ll come to this restaurant again for lunch but not dinner just not worth the prices.

Fui a una cena familiar (9 bodas). Comí chile "caliente" con arroz, nachos, crema agria y guacamole. . y fue absolutamente encantador, Clairo comió ensalada de halloumi a la parrilla con miel y le encantó, la pareja comió hamburguesas gourmet, gambas, así que probamos una variedad del menú y todo fue muy bueno, los dos servidores eran geniales, muy educados y muy atentos. estaba impresionado. Los menús no son enormes, pero lo que hacen es muy bueno, una porción de buen tamaño, todo recién cocinado. Recomendaría reservar ya que no es un lugar grande.

This place got recommended to us by some family that live in the village - as we were heading out we wanted something quick and easy and saw that fish and chips takeaway was available - we rang to place the order and the girl who I spoke to was extremely rude and refused our order on 5 different times I suggested! No reason or explanation as to why they couldn’t do it!!! Ended up going to a local chippy!!!

Chuffed that my local has started to do fish and chips take away on a Friday evening, however extremely disappointed with being turned away! Only ordered 4 takeaways so wasn’t as if it was a large order. I rang up to place the order and was told there was no time to fit our takeaway order in at all!!!! No apology or reason why! So ended up getting KFC round the corner, at least we didn’t get turned away here!!!!!

The food here is of the highest quality for a public house at reasonable pricing, they also have a lunch club a restricted menu but after the purchase of eight meals you receive one free, the staff are very friendly and efficient, love the place.

We have been to The New Inn several times and have always had excellent meals. It's the place we take friends when they come to visit as we know we will never be disappointed. The Tuesday Fish night and Friday steak night are great value and delicious, also the portions are very generous. The staff are very friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. Would definitely recommend.

We visited this pub on the off chance having passed by, and decided to pop in for lunch. It was a Sunday so was expecting just a Sunday menu on offer, but was given a Sunday Roast Menu, plus the usual menu. We both decided to go for Roast, there was a choice of 3 meats, plus a vegetarian option also. We were shown to a table for 2 and our drink order was taken just prior to this. Service was very friendly and fairly quick in taking the orders. The pubs atmosphere was very good, with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The food arrived and we were presented with a fantastic looking Roast. Tender Beef, Perfect Roast Potatoes, and great vegetables. Food was piping hot and was very fresh. Time for dessert, and a good selection was on offer too. We had the Malteser and Baileys Parfait, and it was fabulous, and looked a popular choice with other diners too. It’s definitely worth a visit if in the area, and it’s refreshing to find a locally run pub with fabulous food, We will definitely return to try the normal food menu soon!

Popped in for lunch today. 8 of us arrived very hungry and left well fed and very happy. All the food was served quickly and was very good.

Visited on a very busy Mothering Sunday

My partner and I came for dinner on the above date.

Stay away!!!!!! Manager a snake and will try get in anyone’s knickers!!!! Miserable staff Moaned as we didn’t order food straight away. Don’t take your Mrs! Manager will either snake or snatch her!!!!!

Always a friendly welcome even when busy, the Sunday Lunch is always good and plentiful . Usually a choice of three meats and plated . Staff friendly and courteous .

I had a fly in my Black Russian was not happy with the managers cocky attitude Also it smelt like an old people’s home The waitress was a nice lady But won’t come here again.

I hadn’t visited in about 5 yrs but was there for a surprise party. We had the Xmas package and truly was wonderful. Hot, tasty delicious. We think about returning soon

How refreshing to find a pub serving food all through Sunday afternoon. Booked late, was made to feel welcome, and food was of a very standard (the chill is great!) Would recommend

Woman behind the bar gave me wrong change when I complain she give me right money but slam it down on counter Would not enter this bar again

Over on holidays from Australia, always visit this pub , food is great , service great and the manager like is very organised and fun!

Visited with friends on a busy Wednesday evening Our food was presented perfectly Hot, tasty and great value I had fish and chips which was delicious Great choice of beers - even Bass Staff friendly, helpful and professional We will be back very soon

Visited on numerous occasions. The food is consistently good, always hot, well presented and plentiful. They do a fabulous two course lunch deal that is great and good value for money. Service is attentive and efficient. Restaurant is clean, comfortable and cosy.

Never had a bad experience ... enough said! I have witnessed others with issues but once explained to staff, it's sorted straight away, Great place :-)

Visited tonight as a party of 6. All food excellent and service was 5*. Will definitely be back soon

Hadn't been here for a while so decided to try the speciality steak evening on Thursday. Glad we'd booked as there wasn't a spare seat in the house and I'm not surprised. Two steak meals and a bottle of very nice house wine for £23.95 is fantastic value but there was certainly no compromise on the quality - absolutely brilliant.

Took my mother for lunch and the food was great also the staff were very helpful and friendly. Finished off with a lovely coffee, cant wait to go again.

Had a lovely meal in the new inn Great company and the Fish was cooked to perfection Let down when I went to use the Gentleman’s toilet Syringe on floor Not good enough letting druggies the toilets

A modern local that does some nice pub food and plenty of it. No separate restaurant so eat in the bar. Not hugely busy- we booked to be sure of a table. Best cheesecake I’ve had in ages. Maybe ever.

Booked at the New Inn for a family celebration

Great pub, good quality food at reasonable prices, very welcoming. Friendly and helpful staff, Amelia is a star ✨

The staff are very friendly and attentive

I visited the New Inn with a large group. It was a busy night and very warm. The pub has a small seating area outside which has been made very comfortable and has plenty of umbrellas. Large doors open out from the main eating and bar area. We had a large table and had pre-ordered our food. I had the haddock risotto which was dry and lacked flavour. Other people in our group really enjoyed their meals. All the portions were generous. Staff were friendly and attentive.

Stayed for 2 nights sharing a room with my dad.

We were a group of 3 and we were all very happy with our starters and main courses, (we were too full for desserts).

Great Value. We paid a £5 supplement for Vina Maipo And two rump steak dinners £24.95. I have paid £23 for far inferior wines in Exeter.

I was lucky to be in a party of 10 ... Very warm reception . Great atmosphere .Tables well laid out in consideration of other large festive groups .

Today we visited The New Inn for a family get together we were greeted by extremely helpful staff. Our food was really lovely we were a sitting of 12 and it all came out together. We were not rushed through our stay and no pressure put on us . Atmosphere was exactly how we wanted it due to our mother having Dementia the ladies brought out a cake lit with candles and sang Happy Birthday. Overall we shall all definitely visit again well done to all the staff at The New Inn Top marks .

Good choice of beer / lager etc.friendly staff good atmosphere just great for the works meal ,Came last year and everyone wanted to return ,meal was very good.

The lunch deal is a limited choice but we always find something to suit us. At £7.95 for a main meal or £8.95 for 2 courses you could be mistaken into thinking quality would be compromised but this is definitely not the case. This is my sixth or seventh visit and each occasion has been excellent.

The food is always excellent, especially the nachos! They do gluten free roasts but shame the menu isn't catered more for gluten free. Ideally the menu should be updated with gf labelling.
