Boston Tea Party Taunton in Taunton Deane

Breakfast was barely warm and dry. Microwaved eggs with no seasoning. No real service either, order online etc but nobody asked how our food was so we just ate it quickly! It’s a shame, it used to be great. Some serious thinking to do as it’s pretty expensive and not any better than a local greasy spoon. A nice coffee the only plus point. Also they have the cheek to try to flog a dish of brown sauce for £2!!

Our family call this BTP the Violet Elizabeth Bott ('Just William') as when it's good it's very good but when it's bad it's awful. Ive only ever experienced the awful. My son and his children come here a lot but I jinx the place as every time I've been it's been a trial. I took the children here at their request for an end-of-holidays lunch and it was a pain from start to finish. Physically disabled customers - just go elsewhere. There's no lift. There is a downstairs disabled toilet but the downstairs seating is limited so those with buggies or physical need vie for space. In the 5 or so times I've visited, I've only managed to sit downstairs twice. Up and down a huge staircase with a dodgy knee - groan. THEN you're supposed to find your table number and tell them it when you place your order DOWNSTAIRS. So back down the damned stairs AGAIN with the children... I was ready to scream. The children had pancakes with blueberries and enjoyed it, but I had salmon with avocado & scrambled eggs and it was just woeful. The scrambled eggs were dry and the portions of each ingredient paltry - at a cost of £12.40. And the coffee was lukewarm by the time it arrived at the table. Insult to injury. I know it was a fairly busy day but we were early for lunch so surely within comfortable staffing parameters. I rarely give a bad review - everybody has a bad day, so I celebrate successes when somewhere has them. However, I find the ethos and setup of this BTP jarring and I've never had a good experience there. Their focus is system-friendly, not customer-friendly - and certainly not disabled customer friendly.

Absolutely stunning every time, without fail. Great food for breakfast, brunch and lunch. Staff are always exemplary and simply lovely.

We were visiting the Town and looking for a place for lunch. Have used BTP before, so we gave it a try. Very large premises, both downstairs and upstairs. You could either order at the Counter or through the QR code at the table - the QR would not connect, so we ordered at the Counter. Ordered 2 x Toasties, Cheese & Branston pickle, with fries. Didn't take long for the order to arrive - fries were fine, but the Toasties were more pickle than anything else - could only find the smallest amount of Cheese with loads of pickle, which made it sickly-sweet - we left it. I mentioned it to the Staff, they apologised, but did nothing else. Very disappointed visit to BTP.

Fantastic cafe in Taunton, delicious food, great atmosphere, loved the coffee - best I’ve had on my holiday in England. Great service esp our waitress Cerys. She was fab

Great place for children, plenty to keep them occupied with colouring or people watching from the upstairs windows. Lovely smoothies and food.

Great place to visit would recommend to anyone to come here. Lovely service at counter and the staff are very welcoming and friendly

Food was amazing and delivered to the table so fast! Staff have been so friendly every time that i’ve come here I would definitely come again.

Lovely food and service. Nice place for a family brunch with plenty of choice. Lovely coffee and the smoothies are very good!

We were served by the lovely Cerys, who’s demeanour was so sweet and pleasant it made us all feel so welcome and comfortable, thank you to Boston and Cerys for such a wonderful experience

Very friendly staff. Had poached eggs and the hash browns which are amazing. Wish I'd ordered more but definitely will be back.

Outstanding customer service every time. Food is lovely, it’s one of our favourite places in Taunton. We will be back!!

Lovely vibe, great coffee and latte art, can’t fault the staff - really enjoyed being here with my friends. Would definitely recommend for a coffee date or even to study.

Lovely place to be, staff are always polite and helpful. I ordered a chai latte today to take away, I usually eat in here and the food is lovely! Always fresh and yummy!

- great for family - friendly and welcoming staff (Annabel , one of the baristas, was very welcoming!) - quick service - many vegan/ veggie options - excellent coffee - will definitely be coming back!

PERFECT! The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. Had a lovely brunch with friends. I will be coming here again! Thank you :)

Lovely staff and good food! We popped in, no need to book snd quick service. You can bring your dog too! So all good and we'll come back!!

Great Coffee and staff, would definitely recommend to anyone in Taunton. Quick service, iced coffees particularly are excellent, super comfy setting and great music!

I think this was one of the worst value for money breakfasts I have ever had. First of all I admit that noticing that scrambled eggs were standard, which zi really don’t like. When zi mentioned it to the waiter he advised that could have had then M poached zi pointed out that no- one has mentioned this to me. Anyway, the Bos Breakfast itself consisted of a portion of Luke warm scrambled egg, one pork sausage, one and a bit small rashers of bacon, 1 small pice of John’s pudding, one small, and totally tasteless flat mushroom, a sizeable quantities of baked beans and four, already buttered, supermarket slices of brown bread. This was nicely finished by a very small, one ply serviette. A dreadful experience that zi won’t be repeating.

Amazing staff, everyone is so friendly!! The food is stunning, 10/10 every time! 😻 Such an amazing atmosphere!!! Would recommend for a cute brunch date❤️

This is one of our favourite places to get lunch when we are in town. The food is always good and the staff are always friendly and helpful.

My friend and I called in for lunch! Friendly staff, good choices on the menu and speedy service. Veggie hash was delicious

Always friendly service, and very welcoming to children. Food was delicious and came very quickly. Will return again!

We called here for a drink and snack on market day. The bacon sandwich was OK if a little over grilled, our drinks were OK and the staff were pleasant and welcoming. We did not like what happened next; a customer with 2 dogs came into the restaurant, the waitress welcomed the customer and dogs which jumped up and put their paws on the counter. The waitress then fussed the dogs by stroking and hand feeding them. The customer made a purchase and left with her dogs. The waitress then went through to the kitchen area and returned with a bundle of cutlery which she then dried and placed into a cutlery box. We have no idea if the waitress washed her hands after hand feeding and stroking the dogs. The restaurant has a hygiene rating of 4 out of 5. Room for improvement! Feeding and fondling dogs and then handling customer food and utensils is quite disgusting. This is not the sort of restaurant we would ever visit again and suggest the manager of Boston Tea Party group prioritises food hygiene when staff training.

An excellent brunch ,I had the breakfast muffin with sausage,egg & bacon and hash brown & latte coffee.absolutely delicious. Readers if you are in Taunton & hungry try one ,beats the McDonald’s one hands down

Such great food, very friendly, smiley, helpful staff; such great service. Highly recommend for Taunton Boston Tea Party!

We ate here for lunch just needed something quick so opted for a flatwhite and the salt beef muffin. Both come in good time and both good quality, muffin was very tasty. Staff efficient and the place was clean and tidy. Good access and easy to get to in a central location.

With the Market being closed in town, we decided to give this a try. Haven’t been here for over a year, as we didn’t have a good experience last time. However… this time it was amazing! All the staff were lovely and running around keeping on top of everything. Drinks were lovely and the food was amazing! Salt beef Hash was mouth watering. We’ll be back again soon!

After a busy shopping experience, hubby and I needed some refreshments so tried some brunch here. It wasn't busy, so we went upstairs and used the online ordering service at the table. I had the new salt beef hash and my husband had scrambled eggs and bacon. Food arrived quickly with drinks first and I can recommend the beef hash. Service is always with a smile. Would definitely go again

Amazing experience! Lovely staff and a friendly atmosphere :) I will definitely be returning to BTP!!!

This is our third Boston Tea Party restaurant after Stratford and Exeter. Unfortunately we had a problem with the QR code and our lunch wasn't ordered, our own fault. The staff sorted it all out very quickly and the food was delicious, we will definitely...

Brilliant place to eat, lovely and inclusive, friendly atmosphere!! I recommend the veggie hash was mouthwatering.

Emma's Fizzy Birthday Brunch. Thank you Boston Team. You were very accommodating of our party of 8. We had a great time. The food was awesome xxx

A lovely breakfast to take the family, all the staff were really nice, plus a great atmosphere! Plants, good music and everyone was happy. I know the people next to us were loving it also!

Amazing food! Efficient and friendly staff! Perfect for a quick brunch We had a lovely sweetcorn hash and a delicious boss breakfast. Both definitely worth it! K&C

Absolutely can't rate this place highly enough. I visit with my disabled adult son and his carer and we are always treated with respect and great humour. The food is lovely and service second to none. I particularly want to praise Nick for his lovely...

This spot is great for family settings, we had a lovely time celebrating a special birthday. Exceptional staff.

Great breakfast in the centre of town! Staff were all very kind and all knew what they were doing. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!

I was unsure when I looked at the menu whether I would find something gluten free, however the waiters soon put me at ease. Delicious breakfast made GF. My friends all enjoyed the food they ate, non GF.

This place is amazing if you’re on a diet, as the food takes that long to turn up Iv lost weight! Amazing. My coffee has miraculously evaporated not due to me drinking it though just through the sheer time it’s taken for me food to...

Had a great lunch - veggie chilli followed by an amazing fresh coffee & walnut cake! Attentive and friendly service, couldn't ask for more. Would definitely recommend ☺

A welcoming place with a real community feels, welcoming staff and a very comprehensive menu that cater for all needs and palate.

The staff were brilliant at accommodating our dietary requirements. They were friendly, happy and helpful especially the manager . The food was really tasty. Will definitely come again

Popped in for a coffee, good quality. Service a little slow but they were pretty friendly. Seemed quite popular with locals.

I have to say not only was the food exceptional the staff and service was above and beyond, following an incident of no one’s fault the staff and management could not do enough to make it ok. I would defiantly recommend. Thank you to all...

Guaranteed taste sensation every time- never have let us down, good ingredients. You are paying for quality. Bloody Mary’s are top notch too!

Came a couple times with my friends and was served by Adam. Great service a very friendly welcoming presence and helpfully inducted us through the online booking service. Food was excellent although slightly pricey. 10/10

I was recommended to go to this place by a local friend. We arrived and the place was full, lots of families so a busy noisy place but a full place means popular right? We found a spot but as it was hot outside, the...

I somehow managed to order two of a dish, when it arrived I realised my mistake. They refunded me for one of the items which they did not need to do as it was my mistake. Always good food, coffee and service.

I brought our team to BTP for brunch today (10 of us) as one of the team was going on maternity leave. We had an awful experience due to the ordering system. We selected our order (which was painful to pass a phone around to...

First visit today & it was very good, welcoming staff, which is always a good start. Food freshly cooked & good portion sizes. Very relaxed atmosphere.

Great place to eat, good service and a large range of food to choose from. Not sure where some of the poor reviews come from, but from our experience we have no complaints. We have come in several times, and like the service, and the...

A very nice place, good food. Poppy has amazing during our visit here, she made us very welcome and professional. Thank you

Taunton a ghost town of empty faded retail hollowed out shops and empry banks.....Boston Tea party......"Have you been to a BTP before?".....yawn so provincial American......trecked upstairs.......waitress...."oh you have to order on our App".....to collect all your data......"I don't take orders".......Chai Latte......are you serious?.....its TEA.......and weak...

Real struggle for me to get upstairs, and even more to get to the toilet. Definitely not for the mobility challenged. As for the food, it was decidedly average. Tasteless scrambled egg, overcooked bacon and, ugh, pre - buttered toast. Limited choice menu and expensive....

Excellent cafe caters for all. Some veggie delites. Highly recommend the sweetcorn hash and the Moroccan mint tea. Thank you for a lovely breakfast.

Loved this open spacious eatery, and the staff were extremely nice! As for the food; I ordered a West Country breakfast, however, whilst it was on the whole very nice, I just have to admit that the bacon was a little dry and tough, and...

This morning was the first time I have visited The Boston Tea Party and as it was a beautiful morning I had a coffee sitting outside watching the world go by. I was greeted by a lovely young man who took my order. The coffee...

I’ve been there twice in a week to have poached eggs on toast. I had the best hazelnut latte. But not only was the food lovely the staff and customer service was 10/10! Definitely worth the money. Can’t wait to go back again.

My partner and I came in on Saturday 29th January. Wow I am glad we did...the host was very friendly and helpful. My partner had a sausage bap he said the sausages We're gorgeous. I had the stack of luvly jubbly pancakes with fruit compote...

Drinks were okay, but the side of Hash browns were well overcooked, and unbelievably greasy. They resemble food that had been reheated a couple of times. Very Disappointed, will avoid food in future

Due to the cosy Club messing up, as a family we had to suddenly find a venue for a brunch. Luckily, This venue was open so we all went here. I was really surprised at the quality of the food, it was excellent. As LL...

I understand saving the planet and doing my part but I am a meat eater so taking the burgers off the menu for plant burger isn’t something I wanna try wasn’t a great move……guess I am just disappointed……

This place has excellent food so fresh and perfectly cooked. Very professional staff so helpful. We can’t wait to go again. Also cocktails 🍸

We chose to go here for brunch after my son recommended it. The staff were amazing. The service was so efficient and my smashed avocado with poached eggs was the best I have ever had

Great food. Coffee needs to be a little stronger though. Friendly staff and neat space. Felt a bit rushed when they literally took our plates as soon as we’re finished. But overall a nice experience.

Friendly staff was served by someone called jack who was very friendly and helpful, also the tables were very clean and tidy. I have recommended eating here to friends and family aswell.

Went in to try, nothing to complain about the service but a lot to complain about the food. For the price I paid my breakfast (over priced) i did expect more quality,the food was cold and poorly presented. Definitelly Boston tea party is not my...

Service wasn’t to bad , friendly enough. The food on the other hand was very disappointing. We use BTP Bath and the food is always fantastic. The sausages were of poor quality on my husbands meal. I had a salad with leaves which were slimy....

I came down to visit some friends and with a couple of hours to kill before my train home, I decided to visit Boston Tea Party for breakfast. I ordered the Cheddar and Jalapeño cornbread with some bacon and hash browns on the side and...

My parents haven’t stopped raving about their visit! I needed somewhere for my elderly parents to have a bite to eat whilst I popped round the shops in Taunton. Dad has dementia and can can easily frustrated and overwhelmed, especially since Covid. Stevie greeted us...

We have been here before, and have enjoyed the place. Today we used the app, to order from the table and the food and drink were delivered very promptly, it surprised us as to how quick it was delivered. We were hesitant to use this...

We popped in here for a break from the shops and were shown to a comfortable seating area upstairs. Very airy, bright and clean. You can order everything from the app and it is brought to your table in good time. I had the brownie...

Easily the best coffee in Taunton and excellent service from all staff. Today I was served by Poppy who couldn’t have been more cheerful and helpful. Great team. 👍

Great service by Jasmine, very helpful and full of energy, lovely food, easy ordering through the QR code. Highly recommended.

Lovely food and atmosphere, staff are always super friendly and helpful. Brilliant service by jasmine.

My wife visited today for lunch with her cousin and this is her review. We had a friendly welcome from a young member of staff and chose a table in the shade in the sunny courtyard. We both had a cold drink and the ‘Super...

Friendly staff. Delicious food and drink. Very clean and tidy. Covid safe. Great menu. Overall a great experience.

First visit and definitely won't be the last. The plant burger was phenomenal! I generally order vegan dishes to save hunting down a lactose free allergens menu but the amount of choice BTP had was insanely good! There was a tiny hiccup with one of...
