Always a great stop when you're waiting for a train, I came here during Wetherspoons' "Beer Festival" and they were serving 1/3 pints (also available to order on the app). One was out so they replaced it with a very nice alternative. Great pricing as always and friendly service straight to my table.

One of the best Wetherspoons that I have been to. Great location, plenty of drinks, and food has always been good! Cozy atmosphere too.

This was one of the biggest surprises in terms of prices that I recently experienced. And I say that in a good sense. I’ve been in Exeter for more than a year but never really went to Imperial as I thought it to be an expensive one. But I recently visited the place, and to my surprise, it actually turned out to be one of the cheapest places in town. The ambience is amazing, especially the huge garden with the prettiest lights and lovely atmosphere. We enjoyed the ambience and the food so much that I visited this place three times in just a week. We tried their fresh and crispy fish and chips, their burger combinations, the Indian platter, the Japanese katsu curry, the wraps and their amazing fiery wings which taste really good with the naga chilli dip. The food is really good and the price is totally worth it. Coming to the staff, they’re all so great and ready to help people and always serve food with a smile on their faces. The vibe is also quite nice with young people, good food and drinks all around. Highly recommend this place.

One of the best pubs in Exeter. Affordable prices and excellent service. They draft beer and ale collections are really good. Student friendly affordable prices on all the food and drinks. Must visit if you want to have a good time. Can get crowded in the weekends.

Had an egg and sausage breakfast muffin with a cup of tea and it worked out to be around £5+. Great value - the tea/coffee is refillable! Loved the orangery(?) as well! High ceilings and lot of natural light made our breakfast a cosy one.

Massive would be an understatement, it’s a huge place. Great outdoor seating and a very popular location. Was really impressed with the toilets as they were so clean and even had a urinal for the little ones with you. The door staff are exceptional and very helpful and inviting. The carpark is a good size for the city centre. Great spot for a family meal out.

Best Wetherspoons I've ever been to. Plenty of tables, app/table service was blazing fast (less than 5 minutes from order being placed) and food was also prompt, cooked perfectly and presentable. Polite and efficient staff. Tables clean, rooms felt sanitary and there was a real personality feeling from the whole building. It was only a stop by for a catch up with a mate but it was the perfect venue for it.

Wow! An incredible hospitality venue owned by the JD Wetherspoons group. Beautifully and tastefully decorated, fast friendly service, helpful, professional and friendly staff. The food was delicious, good portion size, good presentation and good value for money. The Imperial must be the FLAGSHIP of the group? Definitely worth a visit.

Came for lunch here and was fascinated by the pub and its rich history. The Imperial ticks all the right boxes for families, couples and singles with great prices on food and drinks. I loved the large orangery which was light and airy and a great atmosphere, while other parts of the pub are perfect for large tables and a few smaller tables for those quiet little tete-a-tete meetings. We paid just over £30 for two starters, three mains and three drinks.
