The Old Firehouse in Exeter has long been celebrated for its generous portions and diverse menu, particularly its delicious vegan pizzas and lively atmosphere. Patrons often rave about the cozy, nostalgic ambiance and memorable live music. However, recent visits have revealed a decline in service quality, with reports of rude staff and incorrect orders, leaving some customers disheartened. While the offerings include an impressive range of vegan options and hearty meals, inconsistencies in service and rising prices have impacted the overall experience. Guests hope these issues are addressed to restore its former charm and appeal.

I always have a good time when I come here. the pizzas are decent. service is always good. I recently saw the red cups band on nye and we had an explosion. I also love the feeling of pubs in general. it is a very friendly, warm, casual and even cozy ambiente about it. I recommend

Great eating, great drinks selection and Fab team is a fantastic place to spend some time. they will not believe the size and choice of pizzas so go hungry.

A rustic city center pub. excellent jazz tonight, with a few bottles very good Aotearoa-Sav and a massive pizza dissolved. I asked for additional chilis at the order, but cook took the time to dive out and offer an alternative as they were from chilis. great jazz. big, no nonsense dug. great atmosphere. great team.

This is the best spot in the city for a late-night drink! They offer live music regularly, along with the famous Quiz-Woo hosted by the legendary Terry and Jude. You won't want to miss it!

The restaurant is always quite crowded and bustling. The pizza is excellent, but ordering through the app can be a frustrating experience.
