Cafes & Tearooms

For elevenses, lunches and afternoon tea in beautiful surroundings the Cathedral Quarter is the perfect place. Enjoy fresh, local produce in a Sixteenth Century building overlooking Exeter’s historic Cathedral Green at Eat on the Green, or head to the Cathedral Cafe itself.

Nearby Catherine Square in Princesshay also has plenty of choice, and is great for people watching, with plenty of outdoor seating. 

Also in Princesshay is Chandos Deli, stocking a range of speciality foods, both local and imported, including farmhouse cheeses, fresh bread, oils, vinegars, pasta, homemade cakes, coffee and tea, preserves, fine wines, beer and champagne.

Magdalen Road is an independent foodie destination, with a delicatessan, fishmonger and baker . The Exeter Farmers Market every Thursday has a great selection of takeaway produce and tasty local treats for a picnic.
