Very nice coffee and croissant. Seriously Exeter, why do I see anyone walking around with Costa cups?!

The best coffee and the best bread. We've just tried their sourdough and rye cob - absolutely fantastic....it won't last long here! Their toasted sandwiches are something else, their cakes are delicious with a good assortment. I also really enjoy their salad bowls. It's such a well presented place, a real treat. It's one of the nicest, most attractive eateries in Exeter city centre! PS) The bitter person complaining of them being cashless, I speak for many when I salute them for that. We are in new times and this is moving on in the world. Working in retail, I can understand how we no longer have the need or time for notes and coins!! I'm glad to see the back of dirty old notes, especially with that royal mug on it.

Always wanted to write a few words about this establishment. Great cakes, great choice of coffee (espresso based and filter too). Loving the vibe, the friendly staff and the kind of banter which can be perceived as awkward but it is all about a bit of fun with people who work hard all day to serve sometimes difficult customers (there is always one or two). It is all about keeping it moist with a smile. EB is a place to be proud of and I never forget to visit it during my holidays in Exeter.

I stopped in for a coffee and cake today with a friend and enjoyed my visit so much! The staff was friendly and my flat white was delicious. I’ve been wanting to try this cafe for a while but it’s always very busy, a good sign that it’s worth the wait.

After traveling the world, hands down Jo and the team make one of, if not the best flat white I've ever had! Along with this there's a great ambiance, open kitchen, delicious homemade treats, sandwiches and a very generous serving of frittata! Can't recommend this place more and dont bother getting a coffee anywhere else!
