Thanks to Qype for getting us to this little gastropub tucked away behind the main shopping area of…read moreExeter. We were just passing through and found a rumbly in our tumblies and had no idea where to stop. We found The Fat Pig to have an adequate menu for budgets and diets. I had the pork belly roast (£10) and a Malbec, while my veggie friend had a gorgeous salad. We both enjoyed our meals and service. The pub itself has a nice range of booze behind the bar. I can imagine it would be a good place to get a drink. Based on it's location, I wonder what kind of crowd it gets on the weekend. There are no TVs, so it is not your usual loud crowd pub for sports events. All in all, it was a perfect stop with ample (paid) parking just across the street.

This is a wonderful old fashioned pub. The best one I found in Topsham. The layout is a bit awkward…read moreand cramped though(you could easily walk into a room that is in theory off limits.as I managed to). My fellow drinkers seemed to be very accommodating when it came to making room for strangers at their tables. There are no pumps, the beer is dispensed from barrels in a side room. The person behind the bar was very friendly (especially as I had wandered behind the bar myself) and (once I had slunk round to the correct side of the counter) served me Summa That (the name of the beer, from the Branscombe brewery). A good pub anytime, but another one that must be even better in the summer when you can take your drink outside. The building dates from the 16th century and the pub has been run by the same family since the late 19th century.

You can walk/cycle from the quay (about 20 mins walk) or this is a ferry which operates from the quay as well. For the slightly more adventurous you can hire a canoe from the quay and paddle down to the pub. I recommend not drinking too much if you do this as you need to remember you have to paddle back as well.

The beer garden is a nice size and good for kids as it's quite well guarded from the road. The pub is quite difficult to get to if you are not driving or do not live local, so I suggest this pub is probably best for families in the summer or anyone looking for lunch rather than a night out.

The thin crust appealed to me and was tasty and the toppings were substantial: no skimping here! The pizza size is enormous and thank the lord the bar provides foil for leftovers.

The interior and decor are very kitschy with Christmas lights strung up and it's welcome to large groups. I went earlier so it wasn't busy but this place can get slammed.
