Pub | Exeter
Share:

This historic pub on Martin's Lane combines character and excellent cooking in equal measure, with a menu that ranges from refined dishes like steak and ale pie to inventive fare such as belly pork and duck hash. The building itself is a draw, old-world charm fills the space across two floors, with upstairs seating in wing-back chairs offering a more intimate experience. Exceptional beer and ale selection, attentive staff, and a convivial atmosphere that brings together a genuinely mixed crowd make this a standout neighbourhood destination.

Why we think it's family friendly

What stands out here is the genuine accessibility and thoughtful service, step-free access means buggies move easily through the space, and the staff are proactive about accommodating different needs rather than simply checking boxes. The two-level layout gives families flexibility to find a quieter spot upstairs or join the buzz downstairs, and the quality of the food means everyone at the table will eat well without the usual family-restaurant compromises.
