Reviews in Exeter

when we arrived we were very impressed with the setting and under the sunshine it felt like Provence. My friend had the dish of the day seared tuna. She found it was very disappointing and didn’t eat it! I had The brochette of scallops and fish. They were ok. A bit bland! Then we ordered dessert Eaton Mess. We found crumbs or meringue and 4 triangles of strawberry. The rest was cream. At £9.95 it was very overpriced. However we were not charged for them

Good food, friendly staff and beautiful setting, perfection.

We visited Kenton Park for lunch to celebrate our 32nd wedding anniversary on the recommendation of our friend "Stads" who regularly visits in a group. We were not disappointed and ordered a Whole Chicken for two, which was delicious. We also enjoyed a very fruity glass each of the Motley Cru Classic Cuvée. The puddings chosen were the Grapevine and Eton Mess which were exceptional. The service was very efficient, friendly and timely. Our Safari Pod was comfortable and Cosy, with good views of the vines. We will be very happy to return again for a special occasion, and recommend the venue to our friends.

Was overall a bit of a let down, service was so slow, was waiting 25 mins for someone to take our order, then when the food arrived 3 of our steak extravaganza's were burnt Would go back, but when they are less busy, as it seems like it was too busy for them to handle

We are a group of older ladies that get together for a luncheon every now and then. the surroundings where delightful, the service and attention given to us could not have been bettered. highly recommend the venue, the food and the wine especially the fizz was fantastic. the Motley Cru is definitely worth it and most of our group will be returning with their partners. Thank you for making us so welcome .PS love the walls in the loos had to touch it!!!

With no confirmation letter , and no one answering the telephone .I was quite concerned I had no booking for 6 people . Then I was emailed to say that instead of 2 pm we could come at 1.30 so we arrived at 1. 25to be told that that is not so .. we will take your order at 2 pm .. we ate at 2.45 , A very nice entree but the Eton Mess desert had no meringue in it .. just whipped cream and a few raspberries everyone was disappointed. When mentioned to our waiter he said he was only the messenger . In fact disappointed with his attitude. Know it must be extra work when serving an outside pod but thought it best to let him know why they were not eaten . We have eaten in the restaurant before and service and food have been excellent that’s why we returned with these friends .

An impromptu lunch together in an impressive, contemporary setting dining on the outdoor terrace consisted of dining areas, lounge areas decorated with beautiful mature olive trees. The lunch menu was exciting and the lamb extravaganza we ordered was excellent, full of flavour with diverse vegetables including asparagus and samphire all complimented by a glass of vineyard rose wine. We explored the vineyard, viewed the dining pods and had a great four hour lunch. Great friendly knowledgeable staff who made our lunch truly special.

Delicious food, friendly and efficient staff, beautiful setting - what more do you need for a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. Kenton Vineyard has it all! Big 'THANK YOU' to the Motley Crew!

We recently booked an afternoon on the 24th July in the safari hut for a large group of us. From communicating the booking with the lovely (Connie Wisker) and the actual day the whole experience was enjoyable and totally seamless. She was charming and has such a wonderful friendly manner where nothing seemed too much trouble. She is a real asset to Kenton Park, so thank you for making us feel so welcome. The food (deli platters) were amazing and we were even given doggy bags to take home any leftovers, which is a nice touch. The setting is simply stunning and was very much enjoyed over a good few bottles of their home grown Motley Cru sparkling Rose. I thoroughly recommend a visit. We will definitely be returning!

Amazing food and service in a beautiful location. We will definitely be back.

Delicious lunch and brilliant service too. Beautiful and relaxing environment, my fav local place❤️

My daughter, Amanda Williams, was amazed and delighted to receive the gift box containing magazines, offers, hand-written note and of course, the gift voucher. She and her husband will enjoy coming to see you in August. Regards, Vanessa Edworthy

Roy & I had the most amazing time today on the wine safari - Ben was a wonderful host and we’re at a loss as to decide which element was our favourite as the extremely generous measures of wine, cider & G&Ts slid down way too easily and the food was absolutely delicious - added to that, your premises (inside & outside) are stunning. We’ll be recommending to all of our friends & family & definitely return for a winter event.

Kenton Park remains the destination for whiling away an afternoon. We had booked this visit in May, following another great meal. The occasion? Nothing, other than it being the weekend and there is no better way to spend time with friends. The service was as good as it’s ever been, friendly, knowledgeable and not rushed. The food, plentiful well presented and delicious. The atmosphere, like being in the Mediterranean overlooking the vines and the cost well worth the time, expertise and skill of the cooks and staff. Kenton Park retains its charm and quality and continues to be the destination for our summers. Its success is that at its core they provide great value food in beautiful surroundings. We look forward to booking future visits, introducing more friends to its delights and perhaps some of the tours that they offer, showcasing their fabulous wines and delicious foods.

What an amazing place! We booked the wine safari and it was wonderful, far exceeded our expectations. The food and wine were excellent and our host Ben was friendly and knowledgeable. The tasting among the vines was really enjoyable and there was plenty of wine, cider and gin to sample.

Excellent food, lovely setting, great staff
