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.

I like to go with my partner and share one for dinner. If you check their website site online, you can find their live music & events page. It gets quite packed on the weekends, so it might be difficult to find seats even though there's dining outside, inside, and upstairs.

As a picky New Yorker, I was pleasantly surprised by how good this pizza was. I got the butternut…read moresquash, chickpea and spinach pizza. 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 pizza is also served piping hot so watch out! The ciders are fairly priced and there is a wide range. 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.

It's run almost entirely by volunteers and a great deal of work has been done over the past few years to make SC Inn better and better, and eventually fully owned by the community.
