About

The Blue Ball Inn is a historic 17th‑century thatched pub and restaurant nestled in the charming Sandygate area on the outskirts of Exeter, Devon. Its warm, cosy interior features a real log‑burning fireplace that fills the space with a welcoming glow during the cooler months, while a spacious beer garden invites guests to relax and enjoy the sunshine on warmer days. The restaurant boasts a focus on local produce and seasonal flavours, with menus ranging from lunchtime bite‑sized starters to a full‑English breakfast for breakfast diners, and a range of drinks from craft ales to an extensive wine list. The Blue Ball Inn also offers a dog‑friendly patio, making it an ideal spot for pet‑loving visitors. With a friendly, family‑run atmosphere and a commitment to community‑sourced ingredients, it is a favourite of locals and visitors alike. The B&B provides four newly refurbished contemporary double, twin and family rooms, each with en‑suite shower facilities, and offers a continental or full‑English breakfast for guests. All bookings can be made by phone or online via the “Book Online Here” link on the website. The establishment welcomes guests for tables and accommodation throughout the week, with flexible opening hours from 10:00 am to 11:00 pm on Sundays and 10:00 am to 11:00 pm on other days.
