Having enjoyed a mini-boom since the new John Lewis store opened just up the street, the Real Store and Cafe has announced it will be opening for late-night shopping until 8pm every Thursday from 18th October. Pop in early evening to pick up your groceries, or for those wishing to plan ahead, maybe a few Christmas gifts - local chutneys, jams, biscuits, coffees or cider will go down a treat.

Free Coffee/tea, biscuits and chat every Wednesday morning 10-12 noon at the Methodist Church Sidwell Street Exeter (next to KFC). Everyone welcome. Listed Church also open for viewing.
