The best restaurants serving British food in St David's Exeter South West

Service was great, very polite, very enthusiastic Food was nothing short of stunning, very much agree with the comment of "Michelin-Star quality at under £30". Had 3 courses (Crispy Whitebait, Steak Sandwich, Chocolate Brownie) and a drink for £21. Very good for price Very suprised by the presentation, very excited for future generation of chefs and front of house!

Lovely freshly made sandwiches with generous fillings, amazing coffee (Yalla) and really friendly staff despite it being a busy Saturday lunchtime!

Husband saw a review somewhere recently which said best bacon bap in Exeter was from Buttylicious. Had to visit furniture store earlier today which is just down the road so thought let's give it a try. What an amazing choice of food at very good prices but decided to stick with our original choice. Three very large thick slices of lovely bacon in a soft bap. Had to go back to the lady to say how lush the bacon was. We will definitely be back but not sure for what as so much to choose from. Maybe a cheeseburger as another customer was just being served one and it too looked delicious. Don't anybody think this is just another butty van in a car park, it is so much more!

I was invited to a birthday party this weekend and found myself at a bar I’d never been to before—and won’t be visiting again. While the private party room was pleasant and we managed to create a good atmosphere, the bar itself left much to be desired. To start, the drink quality and pricing were absolutely outrageous. I ordered a Gin and Tonic, which is my usual choice. They used a bottle labelled Gordon’s, but I am certain it wasn’t genuine Gordon’s gin. The tonic was an unnamed, inferior brand. They served this in a small 200ml plastic glass and charged me an extortionate £7.90. Knowing that my body reacts poorly to cheap alcohol, I decided to switch to a bottle of Prosecco, which cost me £30. Although the Prosecco was mediocre at best, it was a slight improvement over the gin. I can’t help but wonder why so many young people in Exeter end up unwell after nights out, given the poor quality drinks sold at exorbitant prices in some bars. For me, this bar is definitely one to avoid in the future. I haven't tried any food, and I wont even going to try.

Delicious fish and chips, with yummy curry and tartare sauce. Great service with friendly helpful staff. Would highly recommend. We always eat in the restaurant which is lovely inside.

The food at Lloyds always delivers. Fantastic location, friendly staff and nothing is too much trouble, always welcomed with a smile. Well done to all.

"Exceptional Brunch Experience!" I had the pleasure of enjoying a fabulous brunch here, and it was truly exceptional! The food was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with so much flavour. The views of the river are wonderful from Mango’s, along with the service in general being outstanding—attentive, friendly, and efficient. This spot had been on my "must-try" list for a while, as I'd heard from friends how great it was. I only wish I had listened and gone sooner! It was, without a doubt, the best breakfast in Exeter. I’ll definitely be back again really soon!

Popped in for lunch after walking the dogs at Steps Bridge, a truly traditional village tea room, a warm welcome, nothing was too much trouble, small, select menu of panini’s, jacket potatoes, cakes and afternoon tea’s, all freshly prepared to order, absolute delight of a find, will visit again

Indeed, again, my professional careers and training as well as educational experiences within five countries in Catering/private Service/Telecommunications/Customer Service/Retail/Care usually gives me the correct insight on quality in services (so I have been told by many people). The prices seems reasonable. The food quality and cooking are ace! The service is sweet and the athmosphere is very "English soothing" like for enjoying a great English breakfast. The only minus? We asked for half of the full size for breakfasts, two teas and one coffee and it seemed a bit stiff money wise. Especially as I did mention it was my birthday and I, my self, would have at least given two free hot drinks (I learned that in France and Southern California in commerce, which is, do holistic gestures towards some customers as that is a good retention move for them to come back as much). Still, Sally is just a golden nugget of a cafe owner and her staff walk their talk in service: merci!

Such a lovely brunch spot with friends. Decorations inside the restaurant are so cute and staff are very attentive to your needs. Prices are a bit on the higher side but the quality of food matches it. Would definitely go back again.

Amazing place to eat and the staff can’t do enough for you! Wonderful Birthday treat

Brunch here is totally fantastic. Add to this - the building and decor makes for a great setting. Can recommend the Garden brunch and green smoothie!

Had my party here and the manager and all staff were fantastic!! Would highly recommend.

Awful bar lady! She insisted on having her break right by the bar, and nobody was allowed to be served anywhere near her! Surely if you have a break then that’s fine, but don’t insist that you move people out your way! Take it out the back- also so rude it’s untrue

Seems a nice bar, was only a couple of people when we popped in so not much of an atmosphere. Camden Stout is well worth it though.
