Exeter Arms - Rutland

This restaurant is a game-changer. The atmosphere is fantastic, the food is excellent, and the staff is friendly. The ambiance hasn't been this good in ages. Excited for the new year with the fresh team. Best of luck and cheers to a successful year ahead!

We enjoyed a fabulous family Sunday lunch here. A nice private table next to a roaring fire greeted us. Plenty of space around, yet with a cosy feel to it. Attentive, though not overbearing service was on tap as were a broad selection of wines and beers. The only minor niggle was repeated lack of attention to detail with the service. This can be forgiven as it had clearly been busy before we arrived for our lunch. The quality of the food was great with modest but sufficient serving sizes. Playing cards and dominoes were in supply to keep children young and old amused. Overall, a very nice experience indeed.

We enjoyed a wonderful Sunday lunch at this restaurant. The only slight issue was a delay between the starter and main course, but we were not in a hurry so it was not a problem. The pub is situated in a beautiful village and has the quintessential English pub atmosphere. The staff were fantastic and the food quality was excellent. I had a unique selection of mushrooms for my starter, and both my companion and I thoroughly enjoyed the roast beef main course. The beer was also great. We will definitely be returning and are grateful to the team for a wonderful dining experience.

I visited The Exeter Arms for the second time this month, after having dinner there in June. The Sunday Lunch was just as tasty as the evening menu. We were the last table seated, but everything was still available and we did not feel rushed at all. We both ordered the roast beef, which was beautifully presented and delicious. The staff were friendly, kind, and welcoming, and we had a wonderful time. We definitely plan on returning!

Fabulous meal. Very enjoyable evening with the family. Looked after us as always. We will be back.
