    Had a really good evening. Nice cocktails which aren't cheap but OK with all night 241. Good staff and nice atmosphere. It is quite a large echoey room and we were the first to arrive. But it was warm (welcome on a chilly December night) and just a good amount of 'buzz'.

    I bought my staff here yesterday afternoon as part of our Christmas party and i would like to say that every aspect of our visit was brilliant. The staff were very attentive and made us feel welcome. A sincere THANK YOU to The Terrace….5 STARS!!

    Great place laid back and relaxed, nice in the summer time. Service quick and the drinks were lovely. Bar staff really good, can't fault it!!

    Can't believe it took me so long to finally try out this place. The food is amazing, cocktails even better, and the atmosphere is perfect. The actual terrace overlooked the cathedral and the guildhall shopping centre. The prices (while high) are fully justified, in my opinion. The only problem I had is that the waiting staff did not clean our table quickly enough. It kept clogging up with empty plates and glasses. Cannot wait to visit again!

    Went to celebrate Christmas and catch up with a friend Location great, in the centre of Exeter and easy to find. Only complaint was that there are several flights of stairs to climb and the lift was out of use, not great for those with limited mobility. Cocktails were fantastic, freshly made and good value at 2 for 1. Had their burger, this was nice but had food envy when I saw some of the tapas dishes come out. Will try some of those next time.
