At the Old Exeter Inn, we stick to what we’re good at. Comfort Food. Our menus aren’t the biggest in the world – but what we do, we do well. Call us Old Fashioned. We are!

Our pies are the star of the show. And now you can take them home to bake yourself, thanks to our new Pie Box range. To complement our ever-popular Artisan Cheese Boards, we’ve introduced a delicious range of Premium Conservas – served straight from the tin with toast and pickles. Mix and match. Cheese with Fish. And we’ve got the perfect Sherry and Port suggestions to go with them.

Welcome Back!

We’ve got some welcome returns too – our Signature Salt Beef Deli sandwich, Wild Orkney Crab Soft Roll, Burnt Ends of Brisket and Skillet of Chopped Sausages with Mustard Sauce. Our Empire Lamb Curry is a new dish to try, along with Mrs Beeton’s Exeter Beef Stew.

Sunday Roast Pie Dinners

Sundays are looking good. Our hearty Sunday Roast Pie Dinners – pies and roasted meats. What could be more English? This is the taste of Old England.
