"We went to a rugby match and was recommended this venue for some pre match food and drinks. I was concerned to see just one young lady waiting all the tables in this busy pub. I expected a long wait for service especially as our table was as far away from the bar as you could possibly get. How wrong could I be !!! We were led to our table and the drinks order taken. Within moments our drinks were with us. Every time our drinks were getting low we were asked if we needed a refill and a fresh drink arrived, just in time as we emptied our glass. One of our party loves Guinness and insisted it was the best pint he’d had outside Ireland. The food was decent pub food served with the same exceptional service. This was a masterclass in how standards and service should be. Friendly attentive staff with great food and beer."

I attended as part of a social and it was so great. They looked after us and kept us separate from locals which was great for us as well as us. Mid week on an evening!

Jaz and her team were amazing. Despite some confusion with our table booking they managed to sort us a table on the busiest night and did with calmness and ease. Natalie kept drinks coming even with a busy bar. So good. Great for a rugby game.

Visited after a game at Exeter chiefs. The food was very poor with the chilli being inedible. The service was poor. After the food was delivered we didn’t see the staff again. Meant to be an Irish rugby bar. Didn’t see much evidence if that. Will not be back

We have been to the Stand Off many times. There is always lots of atmosphere and the staff are friendly and welcoming. We have tried the food at various times and different days of the week. It is always very good. The Sunday lunch is to die for but remember to book as it is very popular

A group of us came to the Stand off to watch the football. The staff could not have been more welcoming and friendly, nothing was too much trouble, and the landlord ? went out of his way to ensure we had the best view of the screen and attended to our table all night. The food was great and reasonably priced. I couldn’t recommend this pub more highly.

Recommended for everything. From the food, the service and the range of drinks and sports available. All the team were great over several days but Noah and Hero made us feel as if we were locals. A definite must for any rugby fan visiting the city, but they are not a one trick pony probably best sports bar we have visited on our weekends away. We will be back.
