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

I enjoyed watching the jazz jam

Love this restaurant and cannot wait for it to reopen, food was always absolutely amazing, my two kids love going here and are always made to feel welcome by the owner and his staff. Such a shame a fire forced them to close last summer, but hopefully will reopen soon

Delicious food and drink as always

OH WHAT A TRAGEDY! THIS WAS A FAVOURITE GO TO RESTAURANT AND WE HAD SPECIAL OCCASIONS HERE TOO. SUPERB FOOD, ATMOSPHERE AND SO ON, AM VERY SAD IT IS NO LONGER. CAN SOMEONE TAKE IT OVER PLEASE AND BRING IT BACK?

The service here is fantastic. My friends and I absolutely loved it here so fun and the staff give great recommendations.

Fun Saturday brunch at Mango’s. We booked an outside table and enjoyed the Farmers breakfast and Mexican Eggs Benedikt. Delicious food which arrived quickly with very friendly service. Great view of the Quay in the sun.

Boba here is amazing and the sushi is delicious! All the workers are very friendly and recognise faces so it’s always so fun coming in!

What a gem👍. The pizzas are amazing. We only stoped as my wife is a vegetarian & gluten intolerant. So happy yo find this place. Four out of six would normally have meat pizzas but we were all super satisfied ❤️

Literally the best gyros!! Food is alway so delicious 😍😍 also the workers are so polite and kind. God bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Really enjoyed this and will reorder again

Lovely place to drink tea and chat, a quirky little place with great character! They do good tea and coffee, and have a simple selection of toasties, baguettes, waffles and a few other things. I would love to give it 5 stars but it could be a little more generous and have better quality bread!

Our journey home to Birmingham from Newquay led us to Al-Farid in Exeter, a restaurant we'd chosen based on its strong online reputation as a top halal establishment. Unfortunately, our experience was far from satisfactory. Upon arrival, despite having a booked table, we were told to wait for our seat. While the waiting area was pleasant, it was an unexpected delay. We were eventually taken upstairs to our table. We ordered the set menu, selection for 2, specifically asking if it would be enough for the four of us (2 adults, and boys aged 7 & 9), and were assured it would be. The starter didn’t take long to arrive, and it both looked amazing and tasted very good, giving us a genuinely pleasant surprise. However, the main course, a mixed grill, was a massive letdown. It looked amazing like the starters, but its taste was awful. The potatoes were undercooked, and all the meat was overcooked and tasted burnt, as if it had been grilled for far too long. We hardly finished the main, marking it as a total disappointment. We found it difficult to get a server's attention to highlight this issue. When we finally spoke to the manager, he was very apologetic, but he didn’t offer to replace the mains. Even if he had, we likely wouldn't have accepted, as the meal was taking longer than we expected. We simply asked for our Baklava, which was part of the set menu, and ordered a couple of coffees. When the bill arrived, we were expecting a percentage would be taken off due to the inedible main course. Instead, only the coffee we ordered was taken off the bill, which was a little disappointing. The total bill was £86, a sum we felt wasn’t worth what we ate. Regarding the restaurant's ambiance, the deco was very authentic, although it felt a tad tacky. The tables were very close together, making us feel slightly uncomfortable with other diners very close to each other. Overall, our visit was a disappointing experience for a place that was recommended highly online. We found it to be overpriced, overhyped, and overrated.

Had a lovely service from Simran when ordering and also greeted us when we first walked in food was prep promptly and with care he asked us if there was anything he could do for us .great overal service

A 'hidden gem' for tasty food, great value for money, friendly service and the BEST Flat white coffee in town! After your first visit...you will definitely want to visit Drakes again and again.

Amazing service from Alex, very friendly, welcoming and informative about the cocktails we were ordering. This was the first time we have visited and we will 100% be coming back not only for the cocktails but for the great service. Well done
