Exeter is enjoying a food and drink revolution with more and more great eating establishments and international menus. It has been voted one of the top places to eat out in the UK, by Which Good Food Guide.
There are cafes and teashops in charming historic buildings, restaurants and bistros with great views and independent restaurants serving top quality Devon produce. Head to Princesshay or Queen St Dining for plenty of choice of eateries serving international cuisines.
If you're eating on the go, there are delicatessens and markets offering seasonal local food - pick up a delicious pie or pasty from the Exeter Farmers Market every Thursday, or experience the vibrant colours and flavours of the Guildhall Street Food Market every weekend and the regular Exeter Street Food Night Markets on the quayside. There are also popular annual markets and foodie events in the city, such as the annual Exeter Festival of South West Food & Drink in April.
Many of Exeter's pubs have been serving visitors and locals for hundreds of years - you can taste real ales and fine wines in the historic pubs around the Cathedral Yard and High Street, reputed to have once been frequented by Sir Francis Drake and Charles Dickens. There are also smart wine bars in the city, nestled amongst independent boutiques.
Topsham, just four miles from Exeter, also is a must for food lovers. From award winning portuguese bakers, to fish restaurants and a barbeque smokehouse - this town has it all!
Whatever the weather, whatever your taste, there's food for every occasion.
