At Dottie’s, seasonal Devon produce meets relaxed, modern British cooking in a warm, easy-going setting. Inspired by the building’s department store heritage, the menu brings together local ingredients and familiar favourites, done properly. Open daily from breakfast through to dinner, it’s a place to drop in, take your time, and enjoy good food without fuss. Start with something to share, from crispy Devon calamari to cheddar and chive arancini or Dottie’s tikka with mint chutney. Mains range from steak and chips and house burgers to Devon duck lasagne, pan-roasted hake, and charcoal spatchcock chicken to share. Lighter options, pizzas and sandwiches keep things flexible, while desserts stay classic, led by sticky toffee pudding and a Devon cheeseboard. Be seeing you!
