We had a lovely evening really enjoyed the food. Liked that the menu was limited. Some of the dishes we initially ordered were not available and the staff were very apologetic but we able to order others instead. At the end of the meal we were given complimentary desserts which were delicious. Wine list very good also and they had a good selection of wines by the glass. Really liked everything about the restaurant and will definitely go back.

Our part of 4 had a great time at Exchequer last night. There was a great buzz in the restaurant, which was full, and the service was attentive without being overbearing. A decent wine list with very good wine by the glass options, and overall, it was good value for money. The food was generally very tasty, with decent portions, and we shared 8 dishes plus a dessert each amongst 4 people. The only mediocre dish was the Potatas Bravas, which I felt was unimaginative and rather bland. It's my first visit, but I'd definitely go back again
