The Stables Exeter

Roast was excellent, the beef was tender. Vegetables good and freshly cooked. Lovely staff

The music tonight was great really added to the atmosphere! And the lady that was singing as she walked around was amazing (sorry I didn’t get your name) the food was lovely

Relaxing environment. Pleasant, efficient service. Excellent food. Good value for money.

Lots of food and drink choices - our food was well cooked and presented. Both staff members were efficient and welcoming

A good value for money meal. Pleasant staff. We waited a little while for the meal but not too long and we had to change the time to 39 minutes later which was absolutely no problem

They had ran out of the starter we would have liked, mains were served with water seeping through the rice, so much when the dish was tilted it all spilt out, selection of only 3 puddings and never asked if we wanted another drink.

Long wait for meals despite not being very busy and no explanation from staff.

Our visit was at 1pm on a Friday. The restaurant didn't appear to be very busy, but we had to wait 45 minutes for our food. The fish and chips (for me) and scampi (for my wife) were fine, and the waitress was informed and friendly. But we were disappointed to be told that as our dog was with us, we had to eat in the bar area, putting us very close to another table. There was no mention of this on the website, which described the restaurant as dog friendly. The website needs updating.

Beautiful pub, great staff, and as aways food was delicious.

Good to meet with friends - a menu to suit us all

Food was great, really tasty and good sized portions, although it took quite a long time to arrive. Maybe we just arrived at the wrong time, as there were 2 or 3 large groups

Meal out with friends. Tasty food and friendly staff, good choice.

On previous visits, our meals have been very good, but tonight, was a little disappointing.. my calves liver and bacon was overcooked and salty... The other meal ( a pie ) was salty, but maybe it was the gravy? My daughter asked for cheesy 🍟 to go with her steak, but only got plain 🍟....

There was a very cosy log fire burning and the food was lovely. Also the staff were very friendly and helpful

Great food and Abi was absollutely lovely. Thank you Abi!

Our booking was for 12.30pm but unfortunately our food didn't arrive untill 2.00pm ! Also I thought that the restaurant could have been warmer.

Good food but we had to wait around 50 minutes for it from ordering. Also had to wait for the vegetables after getting the roast. Also fish dish came quite a while after the roasts. On previous occasions we have had excellent service.

The staff were amazing, the food was outstanding, the atmosphere was quiet and relaxing, we will definitely be back. We left a nice tip (of £25) as we appreciated the service we received, thank you. Keep up the good work 😁

Good food, but not enough staff. Had main course and coffees. 2 hours. Capable staff but not enough of them.

Absolutely fabulous couldn't fault the service excellent food with a smile

We had to wait an hour for our meal and the pub was very quiet. I asked if their was any heating as my daughter had to wear a coat as she was so cold and the waitress told me that the heating was on but due to the size of the pub we would be lucky if it gets warm! When the food arrived it was very poorly presented and not up to its usual level. When we asked for a pudding of sticky toffee and custard the custard was stone cold! A very forgettable experience and one I will not be recommending to family and friends.

we eat here regularly, we like the food and the ambience

First time visit for an evening meal. Very good quality and tasty meals. Also, very friendly and welcoming staff.

Service slow and food not very hot and quality average

Excellent food friendly staff good atmosphere will be back again

The food was very nice and the service was excellent.

Really happy with the service. Everyone was very attentive and friendly and made us feel welcome. We had a small issue with one of the desserts and it was replaced with no issues. Thank you. Would also like to say that the nut roast was delicious! The other guests enjoyed their roasts - the pork was very good.

Enjoyed overall, would have been better had the fire been alight

Really nice, good quality food. Huge portions (too much really). Only negative was around a 40 min wait for food which I think should have been specified if known.

Meal good, but had to wait 1 hour for our food.

Great choice of food and good value for money and quality.

Booked table online; easy. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Food a was vey tasty, with generous portions. Only one minor grip as just one ale available, with two closed. Other wise very enjoyable experience.

Good food , cooked well. Very pleasant and helpful staff.

Took ages to serve us then after 39 mins told us some of the meals weren’t available. When food did come out 3 out of the 4 meals were cold . They then returned them to us and garlic bread was cold. When we asked for them to be taken away there was no apology and she didn’t even ask if we’d like to try something else from the menu

We left without eating as we had waited over an hour and still our meal hadn’t arrived. I asked after an initial wait of 30 mins and the waitress never came back, she walked past our table repeatedly but did not make eye contact. To be fair it was busy but if we had been told on arrival there would be a delay of an hour, we could have made a decision to stay or leave. The meal was part of my daughter’s birthday present, which makes it even more upsetting.

Fantastic night food was great and staff was friendly and very quick to help

Good value food with a wide, though not overwhelming range. All the staff were very polite and friendly despite big pre-Christmas groups. Great atmosphere

From start to finish we could not fault. Food, service and cleanliness was outstanding. We will definitely return and also recommend to others.

Lovely food & atmosphere. Service by the staff was very professional

One of the meals was not up to scratch, which we mentioned and was sorted
