The Port Royal
Nice pub, by the river on the quayside, they have a good garden outside which would be nice to sit in when the weather's warmer and two seperate bars as well as a resaurant-type-bit.
we sat in the games bar where there were a couple of guys playing darts, we played pool and i lost very badly twice! oooops! there is also a juke box with a good music selection.
Prices are not that cheap but pretty standard non-student prices so thats ok, not entirely sure about the beer selection but i know on the lager front they have carlsberg, XXXX and stella.
Hopefully someone clever will add a picture on this soon!

ahh thankyou, and the granny looks very happy about it too!
you know i do believe that IS a cat on her head! now waht clever person did that? or was the cat just clever? the old lady still looks happy about everything though!
There is a reason for the cat being on the local's head. In rural Devon, the feline's natural habitat is in the branches of sycamore trees, rather like those in the picture. This is because of the navigational difficulties faced by cats when on open moorland. In short, the cat must remain in sight of its home tree, as the homogenity of the surrounding moor, and the low profile of the cat, lead it to become disorientated very quickly when away from said sycamore. So, we have established that cats live in trees in exeter. Unfortunately for them, and in common with all known mammals, cats die. In exeter they often die of starvation because the open moorland provides insufficient nutrition for a family of cats. Thus the cat has developed what is known as the 'rigid ejection system'. By use of this parting technique, the cat renders its own body rigid immediatelly prior to death. It then waits morbidly for a passer by (preferably an elderly person, as they are generally slower). When the said passer by is directly underneath the cat, the said cat, with its dying breath, jumps from the sycamore tree onto the head of the passer by. The reason? To alert other cats in teh area that the tree which it chose to live in is not suitable territory for other cats to make their home, because there is insufficient food in the surrounding area to sustain feline existance.
