Enjoyed it so much I had two dinners; venison burger followed by a full rack of ribs. Good sized portions and amazing taisting too.
So good had to a have breakfast there the following morning, and bought some bacon and sausages from their shop.
Well worth a stop if you are passing through Topsham or Exeter.
Happy and attentive staff, with a real buzz in the restaurant.
My husband and I visited during the August heatwave and were absolutely delighted with out experience here. The staff were lovely and very welcoming and the food was incredible.
I had the starter nachos but the portion size was more than adequate for me as a main meal. They were without a doubt the best nachos I've ever had. You can tell that the team are passionate about barbecue food as it shone through in their meals.
My husband was equally complimentary about his pork platter especially with regards to the barbecue beans as he requested more of them to go along with his meal and polished off the lot.
Pig and Pallet are about a 3 hour journey each way for us but we will happily be making the trip again!
Visited The Pig and Pallet while on holiday in Topsham. Really enjoyed the food. We decided to share a rack of ribs, two starters, a side and some loaded fries. This was more than enough for my girlfriend and I.
My one and only gripe is that although, overall, the service was good, one server in particular seemed very short with us and was slightly pushy. I get that people have bad days and having both worked in hospitality, we completely understand what it can be like. We were taking our time to decide what to eat and having come back to us a second time, the server was very blunt and said "can I take your food order now". Let's be honest, a simple "are you ready to order, and can I help you with deciding" is a much better way to speak to customers.
At the end of the meal, we asked the left over food to be put in a doggy bag. Before our table was even clear the same sever asked us if she could bring our bill now. We actually wanted another drink so declined and had the drink before leaving.
This may seem petty but the server was clearly off with us and we both commented on it almost instantly after they served us. Again, maybe they were just having a bad day, but that shouldn't spill over on to customers who are spending a lot of money to enjoy a meal out.
Overall though, if we're ever in this part of the world again, we would definitely come back and would recommend it to anyone who wants some tasty food!
