OMG the food was so good.
I had the prawn starter and it was so good - I didn't know if it would be worth the money but it was actually the perfect amount ready for the main which was also delicious. Oooh and the truffle and parmesan fries perfecccttt.
The GF options were nicely varied and labeled well, the server even brought the plates out separately so he didn't accidentally contaminate them.
The staff were all smiley and lovely and the decor was a really cool little vibe. A really cute little gem.
Also everything was nice and clean - I know it sounds weird but if even the toilets are really up to date with cleanliness you can rely on the rest being well looked after to right?

Went here on a Saturday lunchtime. It wasn't particularly busy, but it took over 30 to receive our food, which was a bacon and chicken sandwich (which arrived without the bacon), plus garden brunch.
Portion sizes were insultingly small considering the cost. Definate shrinkflation. Not asked if our meals were ok and due to lack interest from servers. Requested to remove the automatic service charge, which they did without comment. We won't be returning.
Sweet potato fries ok, but not enough.
Don't bother going to this rip off chain restaurant and find one of the many local trades in Exeter

I recently visited Cosy Club and had a wonderful experience! The atmosphere is really inviting?stylish yet relaxed, making it perfect for a casual meal or just catching up with friends. I loved the quirky, vintage-inspired décor; it made the place feel unique and cozy at the same time.

We went to cosy club to celebrate my mum's birthday.
Food was lovely as always, so was the service. We ordered dessert after our mains and in the meantime I went to the desk to pay for the bill. I mentioned that it was my mum's birthday that is why I wanted to make a payment away from our table.
Our waitress, Veronica then served our dessert and they light a candle on my mum's dessert.
What a lovely action! It was such a thoughtful gesture! ? Thank you!

We spent ages looking for somewhere to eat that offered mocktails as being pregnant I wanted something more interesting to drink on my birthday than just soft drinks. We?re so glad we chose here! The atmosphere is wonderful, the drinks were great and the food was amazing! Compliments to the chef, I don?t think we?ve ever eaten such tasty food! And hats off to all the serving staff, you were all wonderful! We?re fairly local and will definitely recommend and definitely be back!

I really liked cosy club, food was amazing I had a three course graduation meal, from starter till dessert I didn't choose as I asked my server to choose for me. It was lovely and I'd reccomend that place again. The only thing I thought could be better was a Lil more conversation with my server, she did her job well but she could have done something to make me feel more welcomed.
Nonetheless I'll go there again because it's lovely.

Quirky, lovely building, little bit dirty, rundown inside. Staff were all pleasant but would say the food is quite expensive.

Went here with other and asked for their thoughts on food as well.
When we got to the restaurant there is a sign asking you to wait to be seated. We waited in clear sight of the bar and no one came for a number of minutes. When someone did come they made no attempt to engage with us or even so hello. Had to go to them. The staff at the tables seem to the forget us for the food order. When we we asked to order they did apologies.
The restaurant is nicely decorated but the number of empty tables and lack of vibrancy came over strongly. By the time we left at about 9pm there was hardly another sole.
Food was fine but nothing special. Had a smash burger. It was fine but not special. With onion rings over £20. I went for the salad with it which was £4.50 separately and about three mouth fulls. None of the people who had chips finished them because the were not good. Another person had sea bass and described it as fine only.
Another annoyance of mine is putting a service charge on the bill as standard considering we were a table of only 5. Considering the basic costs were on the higher side for only adequate food it suggests the owners are in it for profit first and quality second.

Me and my friend visited Exeter for a couple of days.
My friend has a pepper allergy and unfortunately twice in a row something went wrong with her meals at our hotel.
So on our last evening we decided to go elsewhere. That evening we stepped into ?The Cosy club? on 1 Southernhays gardens, hoping three times is indeed a charm.
And boy was it!
We booked a table for two online which was very easy to do. We were warmly welcomed by Jack, he let us know he read about our allergies and was going to make sure everything went right.
Well he sure did!
Due to his diligence (and that of the head chef who also went above and beyond) we finally experienced a lovely scrumptious meal without the worry of needing medical assistance :-)
He really made our last evening in Exeter an exceptional one.
So if you are in Exeter and want a fantastic evening with a lovely meal in a charming atmosphere with friendly staff who understand their profession, please visit ?The Cosy Club? in Exeter. You will not regret it!

Cosy Club EXETER
Shocking! Way overpriced for very mediocre food, portions were minuscule, Asian salad was bland to say the least, supermarket bag salad has more flavour?..
£5.15 for a bottle of water!! unbelievable.
And then to find that you have been caught yes caught for a further 10% added to the bill, ? discretionary service charge? how is it discretionary when you are not given the option to decline? just the card reader pushed towards you?.
NEVER Again!
