Best Contemporary British Restaurants in Exmouth

It is the second time we go to Stage as a family and the whole experience was amazing. The decor is simple yet comfortable and I loved all the black and white photos on the wall. I appreciated the cloth napkins. We went for the 6 course meal and the quality, variety and flavors were incredible. Portions were a good size and even my husband felt pleasantly full. I thought the waitress was very knowledgeable and passionate about the menu. Our only negative was how smoky it was, being an open kitchen and being close to it, so our eyes were a little watery as a result. It won’t stop us from coming again!!!!! I really liked not knowing what the menu was. We will be back in the spring or summer to experiment different tastes.

We were a family group of six. It was a nice Xmas feeling with the people around us. The food was just ok, some of the group enjoyed all the courses but majority thought it was very average for the money we paid. Service was very good, servers were cheerful and obliging. We did enjoy ourselves and there was plenty to eat. Was it value for money ? Not sure but you have to pay a lot extra when people work on Xmas day.

We had the most fantastic Christmas Eve Lunch for our family. The staff was fantastic and helped us enjoy our time together. It was great to relax and visit. We had all been busy cooking and cleaning up to really visit. The Ivy all owed us to have our quiet family time with fantastic food! Thank you so much for everything

Excellent service and a extremely delicious breakfast and coffee. Lovely setting. Really pleased to have visited.

Excellent meal although there were a few items not available from the menu. A bit drafty from the automatic entrance doors
