Exmouth's newest pub/bar is the Number 9 bar in St Andrew's Road. Formerly the Banqueting suite, it has now become a slightly odd two for the price of one american pool hall *** classy lounge bar. All in it is a classy joijnt, although having the two different styles in one venue is slightly odd. So, first off, the pool half - five american pool tables (huge, you can't miss, even if you were using the wrong end of the cue, pockets, only nine balls to worry about) and a table football game. The first night I visited not long after opening, it was busy with all tables spoken for. But a visit on on Thursday evening was a quiet affair with only one game of pool being played. The lounge bar area - very nice, large comfortable chairs and sofas, good thick wooden tables , with a cream and brown theme throughout. Gives a relaxed atmopsphere for theslightly older crowd. Plenty of space to talk and enjoy an evening, although on my visit being the only customers in this side of the venue, it was slightly disconcerting. The bar is decent for a venue of this size with a limited choice of reds and whites, while there is a better range of draught and bottled beers. Snacks are alegedly plentifulm, but on my visit the only nuts available were chilli spiced, much to my chagrin as I am more of a dry roasteds type of man. Prices were around £6.50 for wine and a bottle of Corona.
