We were here for birthday drinks, we were here for a good couple of hours, yes we were a bit loud, but not rude and got told to leave, even though the noise level was loud and people drinking on a Saturday night!!!!

Cheap beer and good pub grub. However the faces on some of the staff behind the bar leaves a lot to be desired. Imagine employing somebody in a customer facing roll, to have them look through you and not say anything......like a "hello what can I get you?" would be a brilliant place to start!!

Food was absolutely Delicious the lamb was cooked to perfection the pastry tasted just like my Nannas in Turkey not too crisp and not too soft I enjoyed a pint of Somerset Cider and enjoyed the company of Henry who was an absolute Gent and couldn’t be more helpful Demi the waitress was also very helpful Highly recommend the sawyers if you’re ever in St Thomas.

Hello. Generally the best boozer in st Thomas, The staff and managers all seem friendly enough. Can be quite male orientated, lots of older balding gentlemen with bad aftershave.. food and beer good.

Top pub. Its a really good Wetherspoons pub, great community local, as is more in the residential area... but still welcoming. Well run with nice friendly staff, great food, not expensive. A personal favourite when in the area. Good as ever!

Not a bad team here.. beer good.. but food cold and pizza dough only half cooked, it’s not the only weatherspoons that has this problem. Raw dough in others. Our first one was delicious then downhill for the next few orders. Maybe there not defrosting there dough properly. Shame it’s so random.

All as spoons are the same NO often use spoons as always good value I turn a blind eye to unimpressive food, sticky floors and smelly toilets but it's cheap so what do you expect (I don't like to give bad reviews) Well now I expect a lot more had meal with family and all aspects was better than any I had B4 particularly the fish and chips Staff was all friendly I could tell there was a young man under training he was supervised very well by manager Would like to mention Max H as he had a lovely manner and helped me choose a nice pint of real ale

I've been quick to slate the food at wetherspoons on recent visits to various pubs, so I feel duty-bound to put a good review here. We decided on a day out in Exeter (which typically consists of a pint of ale in each of the spoons.) Before heading off for said ales at George's Meeting House, The Chevelier and The Imperial, we got off the train at St Thomas and walked down to the Sawyers Arms for a breakfast. The food was hot (hooray) and the yolk in the egg was lovely and dippy (hallelujah!). This visit has rekindled some (ever dwindling) faith that you CAN get a decent breakfast in some 'spoons pubs WELL DONE TO THE KITCHEN STAFF AT THE SAWYERS ARMS 👍

✨️Probably my favourite out of all the Westherspoons in Exeter. Has a proper local feel to it 👌 food is always out promptly and piping hot the same with drinks if ordering on the app always comes in a good amount of time. Can get very busy on an an a Friday and Saturday especially in the evening so best time to go I would say would be late afternoon 🙂

Not the biggest of spoons but it's a really nice pub. A nice mix of friendly customers. Food comes out nice and hot. Seating outside to enjoy the sunshine. And you don't have to wait too long for a drink when it's busy. Has more of a local feel to it.

On South st, ideal as close to city centre, big indoor dining area as with most weatherspoons, also upstairs balcony seating, toilets upstairs with ground floor disabled toilet, nice log fire toward the back and extra outdoor garden seating, and a very nice church conversion with stain glass windows still in tact. Food is good for the value, and at time of writing there is an October festival with award winning ales and beers at £2.55.

My favourite local can't really fault it though at times it can get a bit raucous and noisy when busy but that probably goes for any pub. The food in my experience has been consistently good and still reasonable even though prices have gone up but again pretty much applies everywhere else.

Breakfast was good and service was quick. Coffee not great for oat milk drinkers, as only served in tiny sachets which were not very nice. Noisy staff shouting across the pub to communicate with each other and the pub itself is dirty and dated - so not a particularly pleasant atmosphere.

Just called in for a drink as my dog was at the groomers. It's years since I've been in as it is not a dog friendly pub like all wetherspoons. I really don't understand why dogs are not allowed - if not in the pub itself but also in the outside area.

You can usually depend on Weatherspoons for a meal. You know what to expect and what's on the menu. This premises must have had a hiccup when we visited. Used the app to order, and it worked well. Had the larger breakfast which was exactly as expected except for the bacon. It looked un-appetising, very thin and a tad on the tough side. Unfortunately this visit did not live up to expectations

Please please do not eat at brickyard jerk / bomba!! The rice was soggy and didn’t have coconut milk. It had water still in it when served. The chicken was burnt and didn’t have jerk seasoning on it. The whole food was unseasoned. Had to return my drink as the glass had black bits in it. Please this isn’t Jamaican food. Please don’t believe it’s Jamaican food.
