    Absolutely fantastic meal here today and the service as always was fantastic. The salmon was cooked to perfection and the rice noodles were flavoursome. My partner said the burger was the best he had ever eaten which is a huge statement from him! It got buiser as the day went on so we waited a bit longer then usual for puddings but that is understandable due too the large number of bookings they had and it was worth the wait! It was excellent value for money and will definitely be returning soon too try more of the menu.

    Saturday evening dinner at Exeter Inn was lovely. The beef and ale pie had a shortcrust pastry and NOT a commercially produced bought in pie that can so often be found elsewhere .Accompanied by fresh veg and tasty gravy it was a substantial enjoyable meal My wife was enthusiastic about the slow cooked lamb rump. We both chose the 'Proper Sticky Toffee Pudding' intrigued about the word proper. I challenge anyone to finish it and think 'I could eat that again' but be warned, you need to have a 'sweet tooth.' We chose to have desert instead of Starter which was the right choice for us, we wouldn't have managed three courses.
