As a third year with diminishing free time, when I’m waiting for my food to cook in the evenings I find myself looking back wistfully on life in catered halls. I spent my first year in Pennsylvania Court, which I loved for various reasons, quite a significant one being the food. Let’s start with the […]

Winter Warmers: Cake-inspired porridge
Anyone who has ever lived with me knows about my love for porridge. My usual morning consists of a social media trawl, cleaning out my inbox, putting the kettle on and making a massive bowl of porridge, usually smothered in almond butter and topped with whatever fruit and form of dark chocolate I have kicking […]
The Breakfast Club – Rabbit Café
Exeter’s first 100 per cent plant based café serves breakfast everyday of the week from 10am to noon, after which you can order from the lunch menu, and daily specials board. This little spot is popular amongst vegans and vegetarians but suitable for all dietary requirements. Reputed for its remarkable cakes, it’s hard to resist […]
The Breakfast Club – No. 1 Polsloe
No. 1 Polsloe, the clue is in the name. Located on Polsloe Road, this quaint café provides delicious food, the best value and an aesthetic worthy of the phrase ‘do it for the gram’. A true hero of the breakfast scene. Decorated with fairy lights, giant hanging ceiling flowers and the edgiest of wallprints, this […]
Review: No. 1 Polsloe Café
With the top quality food, chic décor, and lightening quick service, breakfast at No. 1 felt like a true indulgence. Add to that a value-for-money menu, and you’ve got the city’s best new dining spot. Last week, Emma and I jumped at the chance to experience food at the café given 5* by every TripAdvisor […]

So far I’ve explored all things foodie when it comes to breakfast, whether it’s recipe inspiration or a round up of the best Exeter eateries, leaving one early morning essential unnoticed. Breakfast drinks! Whether you like to grab a strong black coffee, nourishing smoothie, or a good old PG tips cuppa, these beverages are all […]
What’s for breakfast? Recipe Inspiration
This week I’ve torn myself away from Exeter eateries and been busy online browsing page upon page of breakfast recipes to bring you some of the very best but more unique breakfast options. It’s been a great excuse for procrastinating on Pinterest, but for the sake of your waistlines, set yourself a limit! Seeing all […]
What’s for breakfast? Take your pick!
There is little I love more than going out for breakfast, much to the disappointment of my boyfriend who would rather sleep the morning away. Luckily for me, when I do manage to persuade him breakfast is worth waking up for, Exeter has a host of quaint, contemporary, up market or all you can eat […]
What’s for breakfast? Take out!
Not the leftover pizza kind, though. I’m not talking about putting your Chinese takeaway in the microwave for a few minutes, either. This week it’s all about breakfasts you can take with you on the go. Getting up in the morning isn’t always the nicest feeling. I’m a morning person and even I don’t wake […]
