Beautiful venue with excellent food and service. The blue cheese soufflé was excellent as well as the duck rendang. Desserts were very clever and well presented. We must go back the next time we are in Exeter.

Hi we had a lovely first time experience at The Ivy last night our only gripe was that our waiter was just too overbearing. He came and took our two plates away when my friend was still eating and that made her stop eating too . Shame you don’t have Malibu !!! 😢 Ps The Snowman pudding was amazing 😀

Lovely staff but food was not hot so sent it back!!! The manager came over and said it was the correct temperature if it was we wouldn’t have sent it back!! Offered complimentary coffee I said a glass of wine would be nice but coffee was all we were getting. To be honest I have eaten in several different venues of The Ivy but wasn’t impressed with the food at the Exeter brassiere won’t be rushing back 😕

A disappointing night really. The food was like warm at best, the prawn cocktail had no avocado and was sloppy, the calamari was tepid. The main courses were much better but when we looked at the Bill…we just thought…it wasn’t worth it and we won’t be back.
