The best restaurants serving British food in Exwick Exeter South West

Very good I wish they can stay open longer

I've been coming here for a couple of months now, as part of the Exeter Steampunk group that meets here for a bit of a social every Thursday evening, and a slightly larger meeting on the first of each month, for drinks, food, chat, and a couple of games. Last night (3rd April) coincided with the pub's real ale festival, and I got to sample two or three of quite frankly the best ales I've ever tasted: Gert Coconuts and Summer That (or something like that, I forget) were the best of those I tried. Who knows, maybe the other ten were better yet? The festival is on over the weekend, so do go along and try them for yourself. I accompanied these gert lush drinks with what has to have been the best steak I've ever eaten in a pub setting. Seriously good; a big doorstep of quality beef, perfectly cooked, served with nicely done crispy chips and peas and a blue cheese sauce. The staff are friendly and already know me by name; service is always quick and efficient; the facilities are clean and well maintained; and, come the summer, there's a garden. It's also very dog-friendly (I counted 5) with the staff bringing out treats for the regular furry friends. I gather they have live music there from time to time (having spoken to Rupert and Adam of 5 Brothers 2 Mothers in the garden).
