Exeter is full of character — and packed with indie cafés, coffee shops, and lively pubs. Located in the heart of city’s popular tourist hangout, the cozy Coffee Cellar offers “damn fine coffee” — and an impressive choice of snacks. Fuelling the minds with a wide selection of beans, Exeter’s first roastery — Exe Coffee Roasters — attracts the creative and the innovative of the city. Would rather get a quiet pint somewhere? A couple of Exeter’s legends are a homely waterside pub Double Locks and an old Victorian pub The Fat Pig.
