Fed Watered - East Devon

Sunday morning 9th January and we were awaiting the departure of our flight to Lanzarote from Exeter Airport. This cafe is located on the ground floor of the departure lounge and was the only catering facility open at the Airport. We ordered and paid for two Flat whites which were £2.70 each. Considering they were dispensed from a machine it took a long time to get our coffees. A bit disappointing that they were served in paper cups There was limited food here, which included croissants, pain and chocolat, crips and a bit more. No alcohol was on sale here.

Tuesday 18th August awaiting the departure of our Tui flight to Crete from Exeter Airport. There are 2 parts to this facility in the Departure Lounge. The first being a cafeteria selling snacks and drinks (no alcohol). For safety reasons part of the seating area was closed off, so limited space. It was here we purchased a packet of crisps, £1.40 and 2 bottles of diet coke £4.90, rather expensive, closer to rip off The second part is a bar near the Duty Free Shop, in another lounge. There was a notice on the bar stating that it was closed due to unforeseen circumstances. Maybe it as result of COVID 19 restrictions, it was unclear. Also no indication when the facility would reopen. Appreciate things are difficult at the moment and working practices are different, for safety reason, but this was not good. A number of people, had the right idea, they brought their food with them and ate it in the lounge.

For a change a clean airport cafe although it calls itself a restaurant no table service wait in long queue for over priced food although warm

Nothing special but you can get a microwaved bacon butty and a coffee or a selection of beers and wines.

Love this cafe (recommend sitting upstairs quieter). Always good service, and although I forgot receipt 15 mins later the team were able to print off. Consistently delicious porridge (reasonably priced for an airport) with berries (thank you Chef), and good coffee. Thank you for nutritious, and friendly start to my day.
