"Downloaded the app. Nothing worked. Ordered at the bar, paid £2.25 extra for beef on my burrito bowl. When it came out, there was literally 5g of beef and sauce added to the smallest burrito bowl I have ever seen. The bowl itself was fine. But if I had paid just £10 for the bowl itself, as standard, I would have been furious. But then having paid £2.25 for an extra 5g of beef. After asking for an opinion from the staff (who were extremely helpful), it sounded like they either agreed and didn’t want to comment, or didn’t really know what a standard protein portion on a standard meal should be. Ground beef is cheap. Slow cooked ground beef is low maintenance, cheap easy to prepare. My concerns about the portion sizes were confirmed when I was brought out a 2nd portion of the beef… which appeared to be no more than 10g of beef (if you were being generous), and a lot of sauce. For context. At home, you could make 500g of the same thing for around £5.00… and as a business, buying at wholesale, bulk prices, you can make it a lot cheaper. So even if you were serving a standard portion of protein 20 30g for an adult you’d still make money, if you were buying wagyu ground beef from waitrose. If you are looking for decent food… give this one a miss. The service and drinks are all standard for a chain pub, its just the food that is a scam. Staff were 10/10 though, and brought me out a 2nd portion, with no drama. But even 2 portions of that beef wasn’t really enough protein for an adult. And there was far too much sauce to cover the fact that there was hardly any beef"

"The Exmouth Arms Farringdon £5.00 Camden Hells Lager There are many simple pleasures in life, one of mine is sitting outside a lovely boozer on a hot summers day nursing a cold beer watching the world go by. Back in July last year during a break in covid restrictions I had the pleasure of enjoying a nice cold pint outside the @theexmoutharms . Location location location, if only Phil and Kirsty did pubs, I would imagine they would be salivating at the prospect of securing a pile here in Exmouth market. This area started it’s transformation back in the the mid 90’s when gentrification ensued and times they were a changing, prior to that it was a dodgy part of town and you needed to be either a local or a face to frequent the locality but now that world has disappeared from here. . The Exmouth Arms is easy to fall in love with , just look at the tiles and the brickwork, whats not to like. The pub is a decent size with one long bar on the ground floor and a cosy cocktail bar upstairs. For the beer connoisseur amongst you, there are a wide range of draft, craft and cask ales to choose from with a reasonably priced food menu serving pub classics like fish and chips for £12 .As mentioned earlier, the pub is located in a great spot slap bang in the centre of Exmouth market and sits amongst many decent eateries, cafes and eclectic shops, most of which are independent, so there are some peripheral things to do as part of your visit here. The best named local shop has to be Barber Streisand if you fancy a short back and sides. . The Exmouth Arms is part of the stable of pubs owned by @barworksuk who have a simple approach to how they operate their boozers. They strive to maintain and evolve what is the fundamentals of the Great British Pub which offers great service, great atmosphere and an offering that appeals to both locals and first time visitors. I can’t speak highly enough of this place as it ticked so many boxes for a great pub experience. . Information correct on visiting 18/07/20 ."
