  I bought my first pipe there when I was 18. The place is just fanstastic for pipe lovers. In the city, where J.R.R. Tolkien studied, you could surely find the perfect pipe to blow smoke rings in Hobbit fashion ! Try their fine cut pipe tobacco, priceless !

  Great place to buy a pipe! The guy in the shop knows practically everything about tobacco, and will guide you through an incredible trip around all kinds of smoking pleasures! Plus, he has a beard, not like Gandalf's but still a good beard.
  There's this video where Gandalf stops a train, well, in that video the beard is a false one. Do not trust false bearded wizards.

  I really do want to shop local and support local businesses, but do you know what? I've given up with these folks. They never have anything the website says they do, I have WATCHED THEM repackage an off-the-shelf tobacco to sell as the much-desired but discontinued Digger Flake, (internet customers beware; if you order Digger Flake, you're actually getting Ogden's Walnut or something like it), the staff don't seem to have the foggiest idea what they keep in stock, and their cigars are drier than the Gobi. The only positive thing I can say is that they do good coffee, their Riversmeet Flake is actually very good, and they can generally be relied upon if you want to buy a bog-standard Dunhill pipe tobacco. It's a hell of a shame, because I'm sure Exeter once had a traditional tobacconist to be proud of, like Bath or Oxford do. For the tobacco connoisseur a visit to McGahey's is like a visit to the Monty Python cheese shop....
