The Stables Exeter

Lovely carvery such nice staff will be back & would recommend.

Very nice and friendly will come back and enjoyed the food

We arrived to find out that the menue had been dramatically reduced so we left without eating. We have previously used the stables and had always enjoyed our meals and the staff were very accommodating.

Arrived and was told they didn’t have a reservation In my name, but could find us a table. Menu limited to five items no starters and only two sweets Staff not helpful at start, but improved during the evening Overall we were content, but we had been there a few months before for my partners birthday and had a lovely evening. large menu Good service. So had taken friends there, a bit disappointed

Had booked weeks ago and the waitress kept asking on several occasions had we booked? The restaurant was completely empty. They had run out of most of the menu because they were preparing for the sunday roasts. Did not feel welcome at all. Will not be returning

Beautiful food - and not overly busy, so a lovely atmosphere

Glass drink served in was dirty. Drink exchanged. Wrong pie served to wrong 2 people. No refund or exchange. Very, very slow service.

Friendly and attentive staff Vegan option A nice selection of puddings

Staff welcoming and friendly, lots of choice on the menu especially for vegetarian options which one of our party is, will certainly come back

The food was lovely we have been here many times and always have a good meal

Staff are always nice and friendly menu was limited due to change over , toilets needed cleaning

My menu choice wasn't listed properly on the menu, therefore it wasn't what I expected unfortunately.

Lovely fish and chips with good service, recommended but looking forward to the return of a fuller menu

Had a great time. It was slightly disappointing that the menu on the website was not the same as the one in the restaurant. One of our guests was looking forward to Hunters Chicken but, this was not the case. :(

Good meal as always and very friendly staff always a good choice

Food was good but nothing to write home about. Menu was extremely limited compared to on the website. New chef so will see next time we visit if the menu has expanded.

All four of us really enjoyed our meals today. It was a special Results meal for two grandsons who received A level results. Thoroughly enjoyable with lovely staff.

Great pre match meal Thank you for a good lunch

Big portions and well cooked. Friendly service. Always something new on today's specials

Very expensive for what we had. Not good. Not going there again.

New menu disappointing, limited choice but food and service very good

A very pleasant lunchtime venue. Very good food and service.

6 of us visited on a quiet Monday lunchtime. It’s a modest establishment but perfectly fine. 5 of us had fish and chips and there wasn’t a scrap left on our plates. Prices were very reasonable and all of us agreed if we were in the area again we would happily use The Stables. Best of all was Gilly who looked after us. Very personable, attentive and a sense of humour!

Since our last visit they have changed the menu so our favoutites were not available which was disappointing. Though the service and everything was very good the new menu was not as good a value for money, but that's the cost of living for you!

Fantastic service (bar staff and waitress) atmosphere was pleasant, we were however very disappointed with the potion size of the meals. 2 of our party had the fish and chips, the size of the fish was on the smaller size and the chips were- you would think a child's portion! For £16 it was disappointing to say the least. For this reason we wont be rushing back or recommending it to friends.

Restaurant was being staffed single handed due to staff sickness, but the guy was calm, helpful, smiley and very efficient. Food was brilliant too, as usual

Good quality food with a very good service. Staff very polite and helpful

The food was lovely. It was not so good that as soon as we arrived we were informed there was a few things on the menu which was no longer available due to changing menus, and then proceeded to list off around 8 items! Then once taken order we were again informed that another item was now sold out. They must have known in advance, so I was not impressed that we were not informed when asked the day before for confirmation.

It was a great meal. Food was amazing. Staff very kind

Waited well over an hour for our food. When it eventually arrived it wasn’t great. Had to send the ‘fish’ back as it was nearly all batter, and difficult to cut. When a fresh meal came out, three of us had finished our food, so the lady had to eat alone I mentioned all of this when I paid, and the member of staff did apologise. Won’t be going there again. Not impressed at all

We were traveling home after quite a long journey so decided to stop and eat en route. I booked online and was able to get a table for the right time. There was a warm welcome as usual and the staff are friendly.

Had Sunday lunch. Portions very generous, beef melted in the mouth. Veggies were perfect. The staff are Always friendly and attentive .

Great looking pub and plenty of space between tables. BUT ordered our drinks, waitresses came back they didn’t have one. . Ordered our main meals, waitresses came back didn’t have one meal and ordered our desserts, you guessed it, the waitresses came back and they didn’t have one!!! Suggested a discount, didn’t get one!! So if you go, before reading menu I would ask if there was anything not availabl!!!

Easy to book & view menu VERY FRIENDLY & WELCOMING STAFF Lovely evening THANK YOU

It wasn't the best burger that I had it was just okay

Shame about lots of things on the menu being unavailable, but the staff were very friendly and the environment comfortable and the food we had was plentiful and well presented.

We have been many times before and had a good roast dinner, today's was distinctly below average, no Onion relish with pate starter, no stuffing with roast dinner, stuffing was bought out after but seemed deep fried Just poor.

Very welcoming by the staff , food was excellent, I definitely will go back again I highly recommend

Lovely staff. Greeted on arrival and seated. Drinks order taken quickly. Food ordered and arrived in reasonable time. Only minor issue was food was a little cold and the belly pork should have been cooked slightly more as it was very fatty. The bill was reduced to compensate for our disappointment. Shame as the staff are excellent and couldn’t be more friendly and professional.

Nice service, food was not as good as usual. Many options unavailable for both food and wine.

Excellent service very friendly and helpful. The food was lovely and we enjoyed the whole experience

Great pub in an ideal location. Lovely food & all the staff were very polite and helpful. Quick service too !

Good food and service. Music too loud. Left tea bag in pot when I asked for it to be on the side.

A lot of the menu choices were unavailable. Staff member changed my drink order without asking.

Lovely people lovely place . Just a while bit to long qaiting for food but was good

Good Pub Grub with cheerful and friendly staff. Thank you

Both me and my husband had the Roast with the trio of meats, the 3 cuts of meat were very generous, there was stuffing, Yorkshire pudding, carrots, parsnips, cabbage and gravy I was given 4 large roast potatoes which I could not eat, the food was delicious. I had the cheeseboard which had a great selection of cheeses and my husband had the mixed berry crumble with custard which he said was delicious. I would definitely go back.

Amazing meal with excellent service. Definitely going to rebook again.

Not told there was no ice before mixing a gin and tonic! Meal mediocre rather a lot of Bisto lumpy gravy. Pudding not freshly made , packet and tins??

Good food, good service in cosy surroundings. Worth a visit
