Ashburton Arts is one of the best small live music venues in the UK

Make the Old Exeter Inn part of your pre-show entertainment!

Ashburton Arts

Our very good friends at the Arts Centre have built something rather special. According to the Guardian, Ashburton Arts is one of the finest music venues in the land. We’d have to agree – and not just because we’re next door.

Jazz. Classical. Blues. Rock. Poetry. Comedy. Film. Festivals. Every month, there’s something worth seeing. And it’s wonderfully civilised too – tickets often priced so everyone can afford to come. No wonder thousands descend on Ashburton each month. Click here to see What’s On!

The Best Pre-Show Stop in Town

If you’re heading to the Arts Centre, come to us first. Proper pies. Real ales. Fine wines. Mumm Champagne at £10 a glass. The best food and drink in Ashburton, right next door to the venue.

Book a table and mention your Arts Centre tickets – we’ll make sure you’re looked after.
