An old-school vintage pub full of charm. When we first walked in, we instantly loved the feel of the place. It had that traditional, cosy atmosphere with friendly bar staff and plenty of locals, which always gives a pub a good vibe. We headed out the back for a meal after being told the food was good. The menu looked promising, but what arrived on the plates absolutely blew us away. Every dish looked amazing and tasted even better. We all ordered different selections for each course and ended up trying each other’s because they were that good, honestly, we couldn’t decide which one was best. The whole meal was outstanding from start to finish. We would normally only have two courses, but the food was so good we ended up having all three. Absolutely top-notch and highly recommended.

Belluno Italian Axminster – AxminsterHubby and I both choose something different for a change. Had the Rosemary Salt Garlic Bread for a Starter, but not so garlic and slightly overcooked but still ok. Hubby had the Calzone, bigger than he expected, but enjoyed it. I had the Lobster Tortellini, rich in flavours but nice. We have had many meals here and have always been happy with the food and service.

Belluno Italian Axminster – AxminsterConsistently the best pub in Exeter on all fronts.
The Hour Glass Inn – ExeterFantastic; great place with good atmosphere and amazing Italian food. A restaurant that is run by a big family that give it that special quality which is hard to find. The base of the pizzas is so good and needs to be tried by anyone who knows what a great pizza should taste like. And to finish they make a superb tiramisu!

The Castle Inn – BarnstapleWe had a very enjoyable Saturday evening here with friends. We all enjoyed our choices from the menu and appreciated the attentive, professional service from the cheerful hard working staff. The standard of food was excellent, with everything perfectly cooked.

Belluno Italian Axminster – AxminsterThe food is expensive, I had the chicken it was nice, their signature dish apparently it was delicious but it needs salad. It needs a garnish and there needs to be more of it, my partner had the scampi an awful meal for the price that was paid and to be told but they didn’t even have any slices of lemon to go with a scampi. The place had zero atmosphere inside which is a shame because on the outside it looks a beautiful thatch Cottage pub, the white staff were attentive very polite. It was the only bonus of our visit, and we will not visit again save your money go elsewhere.

The Harbour Inn – SeatonI wanted to visit the hourglass as I hadn't been for a year or so and, as always, it provided a wonderful meal with delightful service in a lovely, intimate setting. They even called ahead of time to see if we wanted to join the pub quiz. Brilliant.
