It doesn’t matter what you order, it will be delicious! Quality ingredients, often local, cooked with an attention to detail that is rare. This is is one of Exmouth’s gems, we come back for the coffee, food, and service because it is always excellent. Thank you Arc

What a hidden gem!!! Tucked away in Greenfingers garden centre, this is a well-kept secret! I had a soup of the day; gorgeous homemade tomato and basil, with nice granary bread and a pot of butter. The devil’s in the detail, the bowl was warmed, so my soup stayed warm, giving me chance to savour the flavours and enjoy the surroundings. The cappuccino was a good size and full of flavour. A great find - I’m looking forward to returning, so that I can sample their all day breakfast on a Sunday.

Excellent English breakfast in a wonderfull scenery. For us it was a bit hard to find, but look for the entrance of the gardening centre, it’s at the same location.

We have been to The Arc many times and I have nearly worked my way through the entire menu! I can honestly say every meal has been exceptional. There is a huge range of cakes and pastries available and they cater to all dietary requirements. The staff are welcoming and friendly and make a fantastic coffee. We had an outstanding brunch today and it reminded me that I needed to leave a good review to spread the word! This is a hidden gem in Exmouth and by far the best place for brunch!

Perfect scrambled eggs with a touch of Japanese spice, and baked beans made on site, not from a tin: very nice indeed.

Went for lunch with a friend and it was brilliant. Such amazing food, brilliant atmosphere (yes even in a garden centre). But the food is great, really well thought out and a lot of care is obviously put into it.

Love this place! Food is really tasty, excellent quality produce and cooked to perfection. Presentation is always beautiful and staff are super friendly and helpful. Very pretty surrounds, only one very personal and small point I would make - it would be good to have a few more shade options outside. They are dog friendly outside which is awesome and there are a couple of shaded tables, but if like us you have a heat averse pup and it's busy, you may find it hard to get a table with shade for them. But otherwise I cannot fault it and they do provide water for dogs too so I'm wouldn't mark them down for it, we will absolutely keep coming, just maybe with a sun shade for the doggo
