I wasn't quite sure what to expect, seeing as it was our first time having food at the Exeter Arms. My friend had booked a table for the two of us for 8 o'clock on Saturday evening. It's always a bit of a gamble one takes, when trying out somewhere new, and I never like to judge a place, purely by the reviews of others. But my word... This place was fantastic! Although it may appear unassuming from the outside, you step into such a cosy and delightful space. It was quite busy, of course being a Saturday night, but we were seated pretty quickly by one of the very pleasant ladies behind the bar. They have a pretty big selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages to choose from, as well as a diverse food menu (whether you're just after a snack or something much, more filling!) My friend decided on the Derby rib burger and I had the farmer and fisherman and were informed that there'd be around a 45 minute wait, which we were more than fine with. Well, the wait was worth it indeed! They certainly don't scrimp on the portion sizes here, you get a lot for your money. Everything just seemed to work well on the plate, from the combination of the garlic butter roasted king prawns and sirloin steak (cooked perfectly), which lay on a generous portion of chicken salted fries. The beef croquette was superb and, even though the name may sound off-putting, the bone-marrow mayonnaise was delicious! The flavours came together wonderfully and the tastes were exquisite. Yes, it was £25.95 but honestly? It was well worth it, because I was full after that with a smile on my face. The only thing my friend mentioned, was that his burger was a little dry. But he still enjoyed it and he himself, was very full afterwards too! It was a shame we didn't have any room left for dessert, as they sound superb! We'll definitely have to try them out next time around! The staff were really friendly, the food was great and the general atmosphere was wonderful, I would recommend coming here (cannot wait to return myself in the future!)

Managed to get the last table available here on a Friday evening, worth booking in advance. Great menu with good vegetarian options and loads of ales. Really friendly staff that told you the wait time on food at the onset. Food was very good and reasonably priced, really great atmosphere also. Its only a short walk from the town centre and certainly worth a visit.

I had a drink and some delicious nachos at Exeter Arms. I've eaten at their other location in Belper and both the quality and taste were excellent, with generous portion sizes that are easily shareable between 2-3 people. However, the staff wasn't very friendly. We weren’t informed at the bar that there would be a 30-45 minute wait and when we asked about the status of our food, the staff responded rudely. While I understand it was a busy day, better customer service and more respect for customers would have been appreciated.

Visited Exeter Arms before going to the football match. It is a traditional pub with really great food. The service was quick, especially as it was match day. The staff was really nice and friendly.

I’m so happy that I can have a tasty vegan 🌱 burger in a good old pub with my beer when I’m in Derby. This time I doubled the patty but it’s almost too much food then. Only do it when you are real hungry. 🤤 The atmosphere there is just amazing and I feel right at home every time I’m there.
