Welcome

A pub for the whole community in Topsham

Located in the historic Saxon town of Topsham on the banks of the Exe Estuary, the Lighter is a picturesque example of the friendly, classic English pub we all know and love. Great for locals and visitors alike we’re family and dog friendly as any great pub should be. With flagstone floors, a log burner and large terrace right on Topsham Quay – with its resident Black Swan – the Lighter is cosy in winter and glorious in the summer. The perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city or break a journey on the way to Cornwall.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, The Lighter will now need to open to the public a little later than anticipated.

We will be open from Thursday 27th May for walk-in drinks only, and on Thursday 3rd June for bookable tables and for full food service

Opening Times

Mon – Sat 11:30am - 11pm
Sunday – 12pm – 10pm

Lighter-A large flat-bottomed barge used for transporting cargo, especially used to deliver or unload goods to or from a cargo ship or transport goods over short distances
