This is the second time I have been to Aby?s for a cooked breakfast. I suffer with anxiety and autism and find it difficult going out where there are people round. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and understanding and I felt comfortable there.

We had lunch at Aby?s. The welcome and the quality of the food is exceptional! We noted that regulars are treated almost like one of the family and newcomers with every hope that that they would soon become one. In short, the attitude of the management and team is exemplary. Any negative reviews are ridiculous to say the least and, OVERWHELMINGLY, out-numbered by those who clearly love this place. I commend the manager/owner for bravely standing up, with such compassion, in defending the good reputation and standards Aby?s strive for. It appears that most negative reviews are rooted in sour grapes because dogs aren?t allowed inside (though they are on the front terrace!!). By our calculations dogs are allowed in nine out of ten cafes and if dog lovers have no consideration for those who prefer not to sit eating food with dogs around their feet then it?s they who deserve the bad reviews. In short I suggest that they have some respect for those that do not like dogs and head off to the nine other cafes that do welcome them. Aby?s is now our ?go to? place for coffee and food, knowing that the experience will always be of the highest standard and, for us, dog free - I hope other cafes will follow your example!

Trip to Exmouth for brisk walk along the front, no plans. Saw Aby's appeared reasonably quiet in their conservatory so decided to pop in for (yet another) lunch. Husband had cod and chips (one of his faves from Aby's). I thought to try something I've not had there before so tried the Ibizan chicken. Was absolutely delicious, a large very pleasantly seasoned and charred breast, chips, peas, onion rings and a good side salad. Thoroughly enjoyed both meals all the more enjoyable because of the very friendly and attentive staff, they really excell at their customer service and treat everyone equally. Thank you all, what a thoroughly lovely family. We will be back again very soon (hopefully squeeze in another visit before Christmas).

Nice location, friendly staff, though perhaps their internal signage needs altering. 'Please wait to be seated' seems to mean 'you can shoose any table'! Menus are on the table, but you order from the bar. I had the Ibizan lemon and pepper chicken and a bottle of lager. I was a bit suspicious as the 'Ibizan' was spelled wrong, but fine. It was more lemon and turmeric than lemon and pepper, but it was tasty anyway, and well cooked with a nice salad, green peas and oddly shaped chips, all well presented. Prices not unreasonable for a seafront location. I was happy with my lunch.

This is a well located place to eat, right by the sea front. The food was generally good although my soup lacked seasoning. I had thought Aby?s was dog friendly, but you can?t take your dog indoors. We wanted to sit outside in the sunshine in any case, so it wasn?t a problem, but I?d like to point this out to readers.

Visited for Sunday lunch. Aby?s was busy but we were seated quickly. We all had the carvery which generally was very good with ample meat. Only negative was the beef was fairly tough. Potatoes were excellent and the vegetables were ok although a little overcooked as seems always to be the case with a carvery. The atmosphere was friendly and relaxed. The staff were all helpful and attentive.

We?ve been going to Aby?s for the last 12 months at every opportunity when we are down at our holiday home in Devon Cliffs, and it is always one of the highlights of our holidays. Couldn?t ask for a better reception. Every member of staff is so welcoming and friendly, and attentive in giving their customers the best experience. We?ve been multiple times and their buffet breakfast is an all rounder. Plenty of choice and caters for everyone. The fried bread is our personal favourite! Their Sunday carvery is also excellent. Never a disappointed service!
