"A quick visit for a cup of coffee to go before catching a train from Exeter Central. Situated next to the station stopped for a latte as I NEEDED one, honestly I did. The difference was stunning compared to other high street coffee shops, you know the ones I mean. (the ones that taste like a rusty nail) The presentation of the coffee was sublime the barrista was obviously skilled and new his craft. The taste was smooth and fresh and required savouring across the whole pallette. The aroma was of fresh arabica beans ................... and well you know there's only so much you can say about a cup of coffee but WOW. HIGHLY RECOMMEND A VISIT FOR A COFFEE. what3words location. punt.hers.sank"

Outdoor seating probably the best place to be in Exeter when the afternoon sun is out. Cake also beautiful and coffee art is also a beautiful touch.

Brilliant and authentic café, right next to Exeter Central Station, offers a range of drinks, fresh bread, sandwiches, cakes, coffee beans and well-stocked wines, apple wine, but no beer unfortunately.

The best coffee in Exeter. The best cake in Exeter. The best staff in Exeter. Never a bad experience here. The staff are always willing to have a chat where there is time and the coffee/cake/food is absolutely fantastic, especially the Banana Bread!

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 if not the best flat I ever had! Along with this there is a large ambience, open kitchen, delicious homemade treats, sandwiches and a very generous portion of Frittata! Can no longer recommend this place and do not disturb getting a coffee somewhere else!

Just ok, really. Prime spot opposite the college and next to the station, but it was strangely quiet and had no atmosphere (middle of the day, lunch time). Service was miserable, like I was an inconvenience. Coffee was strong, but properly roasting hot and it needed to cool down for a long time. Tasty once we got there. Brownie was excellent. Mixed bag overall, and I preferred visiting 2-3 years ago.

This is one of my favourite cafés in the world. Everything they turn their hand to, they do exceptionally well. The atmosphere is unique and so tastefully curated a good balance of casual and rough around the edges, whilst also being well thought out and relaxing. The coffee is always spot on and the now iconic cakes and traybakes are always delicious. I'll forever be coming back here anytime I'm in Exeter.

Coffee and the almond croissants are great. However, the customer service could be much better. On many occasions, some of the staff have been quite dismissive and short, especially the guy with glasses and lots of tattoos. It technically is dog friendly and I've been going with my dog for a while now but on several occasions, I've been ordered to sit away from the counters, other times staff are more welcoming. Would rather go elsewhere that stocks their cakes and pastries with better service.
