Specialty coffee, cake and art sessions, all under one roof
Stop by, the cafe is open Thursdays to Mondays and available 7 days a week for private and group events.
From ethically sourced coffee and fresh smoothies to a rotating gallery of work by local artists, everything here is designed to fuel a little creativity and a proper break from the everyday. We host art cafe sessions and have art kits ready to use or takeaway for you to create and recharge at your own pace.
Drop in or book ahead and switch off for a little while, or just talk and paint. We have yummy cakes, baguettes and the usual Glorious Specials to keep you going for the day too. Book an art session and get 5% off the menu during your session. No experience needed for the art sessions.
Opening times
Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays – 10.30am to 5.30pm
Saturdays – 10am to 5.30pm
Sundays – 10.30am to 5pm
Available for private hire and bookings from 8.30am to 10pm for small and large groups. If you are a local artist, community group or a charity, and would like a place to meet or celebrate, email us for more information.
We welcome collaborations with community groups, artists, creatives, scientists, and for team meet ups.
We’re proud to be part of Exeter’s independent West Quarter, and we love sharing our space with the community, through our community events board, workshops, and private hire, as well as the everyday moments on our historic and thriving Fore Street in Exeter.
Find us part way between the centre of Exeter and St Thomas Exebridges Retail Park. We are 5 minutes down from the Cathedral towards the Quay which is also only a stroll away.
