The Beer Engine, Newton St Cyres, Exeter, EX5 5AX

Food

Quote from AA 2008 Pub Guide:

Striking whitewashed free house, once a railway hotel and these days acknowledged as one of Devon's first micro-breweries. There's daily fish deliveries from Brixham so expect sea bass, cod or haddock cooked in beer batter.

Vegetarians can look forward to a wide selection of choices.
