The Sawyers Arms - JD Wetherspoon

You know what you're getting with a Spoons, and the Sawyers Arms delivers exactly that on a street that's quietly becoming a bit more interesting. It's the sort of place where you'll bump into builders, students, and locals who've been coming for years, all united by the promise of a decent breakfast for under a tenner and wine that won't break the bank. The pub itself has that familiar Wetherspoon charm—no frills, plenty of space, and absolutely rammed on Friday nights. It's the kind of spot you go to when you want proper value and zero pretension, which honestly, in Exeter's current climate, counts for something.
