Coopers Mill in South Somerset

Excellent little hidden Gem. Nipped in to find a quiet corner to do some work emails before heading home. Daryl was lovely going the extra mile and provided me with an extension lead. My colleague had the rump steak and I the soup, great service and yummy tasting food. Free parking too!

Staff were friendly and the place was nice - the food was just terrible! Cold and rubbery like it was cooked a week ago and served up. I had the duo roast and it was easily the worst I have ever had. My families meals were all ok, although quantities of food like the chips and broccoli were sparse - especially on the big plates it was served on. Didn’t have to wait too long - which was great as it was busy, but at the detriment of what could have been a lovely meal. Would visit again, but not to eat.

Ordered Roasts on Sunday, firstly took so long to arrive around an hour when on the app said food would be 20mins, when it finally arrived sadly it wasn't worth the wait Yorkshire puddings were so over done I couldn't even eat it, there was no cauliflower cheese asked where it was and said ohh they've run out, nothing given instead 🤷 potatoes were overdone, told member of staff when asked everything okay i wasn't enjoying my meal, didnt seem bothered or say anything to myself about it. When i left, he went to my partner and said the main chef was off, but no apology to myself who actually said my meal wasnt very nice. We ate it as was hungry after waiting so long for it to arrive and was getting late. Its a shame, was the first time here to eat and i do like a good roast, but probably wont be back for a good while if ever.

Fish Goujons in a wrap. Very tasty. As usual I'd started eating before I took a photo 🤦🏻so the messy bit at the top edge of my plate is my addition of mayo and ketchup.

Great atmosphere, friendly and good food reasonably priced

Bustling sports pub with good beers and good atmosphere

Good food and service. But very noisy and could heart partner xx

Baby Shower Gathering with family...good food ..very well organised..helpful staff...well done Coopers Mill staff

A nicely presented pub with friendly and attentive staff. There were plenty of food and drink options and the food was very nice.

We stopped here for lunch on our journey from Wiltshire to Devon. We were welcomed at the door by Michael who quickly found us a quiet table for two and fully explained the lunch options and deals. It was not a long wait for the food which was delicious and well presented. The lunch menu choices were fairly wide ranging. We opted for ciabatta and wraps with sides of fresh salad and fries. By the time we left the place had filled considerably which probably reflects the great service, good food and efficiency of the staff.

This is our local and we pop in regularly. Staff are very friendly, helpful and there is usually something happening, quiz nights, events, charity things and sport.. Lots of different people from young, families to the elderly. Free parking and dogs are welcome. Well done Darryl and the team.

Great service from Michael, always remembers my drink order even though I only come here about once a month - had mac n cheese was delicious

Excellent pub with great food and dog friendly. Just watch for your dog going for the copious, poisonous-to-dogs chewing gum stuck under all of the tables!

Always enjoy visiting Cooper’s Mill. Friendly helpful staff and tasty food. The quiz nights are good fun too.

I had the turkey beef duo ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS. Hubby had the lamb shank was very impressed. Jacob, Beth and Jade friendly polite and attentive. Lovely atmosphere will be back again.

Friday karaoke, great atmosphere and drinks are not too badly priced

The Katsu curry is the best pub meal around and I would highly recommend. Decent for watching football and they allow dogs too!👍

Excellent meal as always staff friendly and helpful will definitely be coming back

Had a lovely meal here, great staff so helpful and friendly were made to feel very welcome! a great variety on the menu and a amazing range of drinks, I would definitely recommend visiting Coopers mill if in the area plenty of parking too.. weather not great but the outside space looks like it will be great when the weather is better..thanks

Chose to book our Christmas works meal at the Coopers for the first time this year and we were not disappointed! The food was plentiful, hot and very tasty. The staff were amazing, so attentive. Darrell the manager was fabulous and made us all feel so comfortable. We all highly recommend this pub and I can’t wait to visit again. Thank you all.

Often pop into this pub on my commute to visit family. Usually have a meal but sometimes just a coffee to have a break from driving. Food is always fantastic with great service and staff are very welcoming. The landlord is great with customers and looks forward to our stops. Thanks to all involved with the pub and look forward to seeing you all soon.

The service is 10 out of10 and the food is amazing i had the pork belly special from the the presentation to the tast 10 out of 10 plus the pub is dog friendly i will definitely be coming hear again food and drinks are a great price as well also had a few game's of pool met the manager Darryl as well what a wonderful chap

Saw 2 plates come out in 40 minutes of waiting for our food. Then asked where ours was. Told 10 minutes. 15 minutes later it appears. Bang average food, not worth the wait. Skin on the hunters chicken from the microwave i assume

Went for a birthday on early Sunday evening , we decided to have a roast which was very disappointing, the potatoes were inedible to be honest peas and Carrott were the veg little disappointed to be truthful would rather you said you were out of roast than given us dried left overs for £14,49 not value for money at all . The toilets were a disgusting to be honest. Would not be using this pub again nor recommending it. Times are hard these businesses need to up their A game for sure ...

Brilliant Sunday lunch best one I've had while eating out for a long time. The food was tasty and fresh. Yorkshire puds were amazing that real praise from a Yorkshire lass The food was hot normally when you eat out its warm... See you tonight as we are coming back.

Nice service, nice food (cheap! And good!) ladies loo was apparently despicable but men’s toilets were fine, would recommend

Friendly but very slow to bring food

Good afternoon lunch and drink after a walk around nine springs park definitely recommend. Staff was great and helpful

Tried to have a meal but there was a disco.

Booked family lunch asked for " not near TV and not near toilet. On avivail entered via doors from rear car park, this is by the toilets. Toilet smells where so obvious and not pleasant. Our table was at the top of the stairs to the toilet but fortunately not an obvious smell. One of our ladies had to use the toilet and advised it was very unpleasant. The overriding smell going down the stairs was even worse on entering the actual toilets, they were not clean and one not usable as toilet seat was broken. The men adviced theirs was just as unpleasant. On a positive the food and service could not be faulted and felt welcome and relaxed. Why can't the toilets men and women's not be careful looked after, correct cleaning be conducted to avoid the disgusting smell which not just affected the actual toilets but the entrance and stairwell. Please do not be put off attending, that's not my intention. Just for the owners and management to get this resolved, in this day and age of a wide variety of products to ensure health and safety it should be an easy fix. Thanks for a good meal and service for team do you credit.

Outstanding service from incredibly friendly staff. The delicious ood was only outshone by the service. Also had a good choice of Lilley's cider.

This has to be the best burger I’ve ever had. The staff make you feel very welcome. Great service from all staff. Served by Michael with a friendly service. Will definitely be back

Have been going here most weeks for a family meal for the last year or so, and never have we had a bad experience - the service is great with friendly staff (notably Michael and Dylan) and the food is always delicious. Highly recommend

Splendid service, great food and a good chat with very friendly staff. My new local!! 10/10 fried eggs too!!

Sadly we won't be returning. We booked a table of 8 for 1pm New years eve. Nobody came with menus or took a drink order until 1.20pm, we were then told that food would be 40 mins due to how busy they were. We ordered drinks and a few packets of crisps to keep 4 very hungry kids happy whilst waiting for the food. No mixed grill available (fair enough it's busy). At 1.50pm I asked how much longer for food, we were told after they checked with the kitchen it would be 10mins. At 2.15pm we went to the bar to check again. After 10 mins stood at the bar waiting to be acknowledged (2 people behind the bar helping 1 person) we eventually were seen and asked again how long. After another trip to the kitchen we were told another 10 mins. We made the decision to leave at this point, the lady behind the bar just said "ok we will get you a refund " no apology, no trying to reassure us....nothing. We said we hadn't paid anything as yet, to be told oh OK then. We then left again with no apology or any want to keep us there. Very disappointed with the lack of service, especially after we had visited earlier this year and thought how lovely it was. The food then was great and nothing was any trouble. Sadly we won't be returning in the future.

Fantastic meal there today Jacob was so amazing Fantastic with customers and went above and beyond food was fantastic will definitely be going back.

Was there for Christmas Meal, not impressed. The taste of food very bland, the portion small as for children only roast was quite normal size. We couldn't enjoy that meal as was too crowded and too loudly as we sat next to sounders. Not recommended as restaurant for a meal.

Easy parking, dog friendly, service very efficient and helpful. It's that festive period when it all goes to Turkey and Tinsel. My burger was the strangest odd concoction you could ever dream up including a Yorkshire puddle and pigs in blankets, could have even been pulled turkey on top. The lemon tart was the best thing on the dessert menu, l fancied the chocolate Fondant but the mincemeat was a step too far coming in at 700 calories. My wife had a steak which always a mistake, a rare steak was over cooked to very well done. The loo, bathroom is 2 floors down so beware.

Love this pub, can't fault it. The Sunday lunch is very nice too

A nice place to hang out with besties

We were a large group of 21 and the staff were fantastic - very attentive and excellent organisation of food coming out. Their can do attitude was fantastic and much appreciated by the group. Their food was also very good - everyone left with full tummies. We even enjoyed a Christmas carol sing song at the end which everyone in the pub joined in with. The best Christmas so that our line dance club has ever had!

Great value for money, But what really stood out for me was the guy who served us, he was fab! Customer service really does make a different. I didn't get his name unfortunately but it amazed me how he was taking orders from big tables and not making notes, he literally memorised it all. We need more nice guys like him in our pubs!

Always good food and great people.

Highly recommend, the staff were so helpful and went out of their way to deal with my dietary issues. Will return.

Had a festive meal here with the girlfriends on Saturday night. Great service, great service. Had a brilliant night out. Will be going back. Highly recommend.

Had lunch with hubby and friends last week. Food was lovely and they happily accommodated requested changes to one meal. Relaxed atmosphere and we had plenty of time to chat, not feeling rushed.

Possibly Yeovils best pub 🤩 We had a great lunch here and the service was brilliant especially our waitress 🌟 we will be coming back 😃

The best Roast Dinner in Yeovil! 😍

Had a Sunday roast there, the lamb shank, and it was excellent. The meat fell off the bone, the roast potatoes were crispy and the veg was nice. Really nice meal, friendly staff and I'll be back.

This is a nice pub, near the town centre. It has a very good selection of drinks on offer, outside seating, televisions, and a pool table. Food is your typical chain type affair but very reasonable, tasty, and good portion sizes.

Amazing place. Always get such good service here. 3 out of 4 of us wanted a jacket potato, which is on the menu as a side, not main, but Darryl was happy to do us jacket potatoes as a main with beans,cheese and side salad.. also the pub only has coke on tap but Darryl kindly gave me a Pepsi from his own stash in replace of the coke (I’m not a coke fan)… Darryl, you are the best!

Very friendly and welcoming pub. What makes it even better is they make the effort to make sure my little one is all catered for too! Bring the highchair to the table, talking to her throughout and providing entertainment means for an enjoyable meal for all three of us! Proper pub grub too! No wonder we've visited twice this month already!

Thanks Michael for looking after us at lunchtime. Our Steaks this time were not the usual standard ( different staff in the kitchen) ????? I should have said at the time but we needed to get on the road...we had a long journey infront of us. But, again Michael thanks for your kind attention. L

Staff are so pleasant and friendly! Food was also amazing.

Enjoyable lunch served with smiles. CAMRA friendly.

Such a friendly place to eat - just me and my dog! Food exceptional and everyone so kind and friendly . Will definitely be back

I recently visited Coopers Mill and was thoroughly impressed by the experience. From the moment we arrived, Manager Darrell ensured we felt welcome and well taken care of. He was attentive and personable, making sure every detail of our visit was perfect. The food was outstanding, thanks to Chef Danielle, who brought creativity and skill to each dish. Every course was beautifully presented and delicious, with flavors that truly made an impression. It's clear she has a passion for her craft, and it shows in the quality and taste of each plate. Overall, Coopers Mill is a fantastic place to enjoy a memorable meal. With excellent service from Darrell and exceptional food from Danielle, it’s a spot I’d highly recommend. Looking forward to my next visit!

V friendly staff amazing food and the BEST ONION RINGS IN YEOVIL

Have previously been as visit from Frome to family in Yeovil. We do like the senior menu as portions suit us but was told after our last visit that the senior menu would be changing in September but that has not happened. Would be nice if there was more variation. Sure you would get many more ‘seniors’ visiting as enough food and good price.

My dad suggested a lunch meet here as it was close to him. I must admit I was sceptical as I usually prefer an independent pub but I was very pleasantly surprised and impressed. Our servers Darren and Victoria were extremely welcoming and looked after us impeccably. I chose the seafood and chorizo risotto which was delicious and excellent value. The rest of our party enjoyed their meals too including one diabetic who had as much of the sugar removed from her dessert as they possibly could. Well done guys, keep up the good work!

Lovely food lovely servers, Served by Dylan and micheal and very happy and chatty, Will return. Lovely hot food and so much choice for lunchtime.

Efficient and friendly service.Good food and good value.We can recommend the chicken and ham pie,pesto schnitzel, gammon steak and lamb shank.We were a party of 7 and were looked after well by the manager Darryl.The pub needs a refit, especially the toilets, but it was comforable. There was football on the tv but where we were it wasnt intrusive.

Brilliant food, great atmosphere with the football on. Highly recommend

Outstanding service and food today. Special thanks going to Darrell for his humour and Jacob for squeezing us in at short notice... The lamb shank particularly worthy of a little extra praise 👏...

Ate here twice over the last week. Last Sunday we popped in and had a Sunday lunch. Two roast turkey meals and you could add extras if you wanted. They gave us loads of meat and the veg was plenty on each plate. Didn't have pudding as we were stuffed. We returned again later in the week and had some of the meal deals that were good value. The Mrs had halloumi and chips and I had one of the burgers and chips..both were perfect and cooked just how we liked it. Burger was really tasty and the chips were just right. The service was spot on Both occasions and staff very accommodating.

It was my first time going to Coopers Mill and we will definitely return. Michael who served us was very attentive, informative and friendly.

Great food, great pints and brilliant friendly staff, best pub in Yeovil

Fantastic sunday roast highly recommend

All staff we encountered today were really friendly, the service was quick and the food was great value wise 👏🏻👏🏻

This is my local and I’ve never thought to write a review until now; the staff are more like friends at this point, they’re so friendly and welcoming, always make your visit special, I cannot fault the place. I’ve come here for years for the sports they show and the prices. Absolutely brilliant. Big shout out to their manager Darrell & the rest of the staff; Victoria is absolutely lovely aswell as Josh, Dan is an absolute character aswell. We all have a laugh. Pop down to coopers, brilliant place to be. Thankyou xxx

Always good food, nice atmosphere and good prices

Great food and even better to eat it while watching the football 🍻🍔

Friendly staff, never had a problem with the food and the service has always been prompt.

Kind of what I expected, I went for the BBQ chicken sandwich, it was a little sad, rather over done fried chicken and not a lot of BBQ going on. A friend had sticky toffee putting and enjoyed it. Like the ability to order through your phone. Service was good, pretty quickly delivered drinks that were ordered. It's not a bad spot and I hope I just chose a dud meal.

I had the new Swiss burger with Swiss cheese and mushrooms. Very nice! Good food overall, good deals. Quite busy for 3.30pm but not too slow.

Another fantastic meal here....wife had hunters chicken, which was piping hot and tender...the katsu chicken equally as hot and tender....and a bonus free pud as it was the wife's birthday...will definitely be back k.

if i got rate higher than 5, i absolutely would! i contacted coopers about a week before the event and asked if they could cater for 22 people! within a matter of hours, the manager had gotten back to me and confirmed they could do this and only asked for preorders. all communication with the manager was responded to in a matter of hours everytime and they went above and beyond to make this surprise meal perfect for our friend. they allowed us to come in early to set up decorations, managed to sit us all on one table in the restaurant area and were super attentive all evening. this is the second time we have used coopers mill for a large party and we would all return time and time again. the evening was seamless and the staff beyond brilliant. thank you so so much for everything!

Place has changed a bit since I last visited 30 years ago. First, it’s cleaner! Second, all the staff seemed friendly and sober! That said, I hardly ever give 5 stars to a restaurant unless their food is orgasmic. 3 is fair. I had the beef pie and it was disappointing - tasty enough but ZERO carrots, peas, potatoes etc in the filling. It was just a few beef chunks and a lot of gravy and crust. Tasted fine but lacking also came with a side of gravy. So A LOT of gravy. Otherwise, it’s an ok place and at least it’s not a place where you get glowered at just for walking in the door.

Not quite sure where the cheese was on my cheesy chips but more concerning is the doors in the women’s toilets have holes in for anyone to look straight through! I stuffed my toilet door with loo roll, one of the other doors have had the hole filled however 3 out of 4 were not! They have posters on the doors about safety but surely this is safety too? The toilet door locks are absolutely appalling also!

We had a lovely meal this evening, both dishes were delicious and jacob and micke were attentive helpful and polite. Great service

One of Yeovil’s best pubs, good atmosphere and entertainment. Staff super friendly, food nice and reasonably priced.

Booked a table turned up bar staff friendly was told someone would be with us in a minute or so 25 min later still no one came to take our order table next to us had been waiting 45 min for food when it came out was wrong

Being a whinging old sod means I gripe more over lesser things, does this however guarantee a more in depth review...well, we shall see on that one. So, at 43 I decided it was about time to do a solocation without the fruits of my loins, and the partner I don't have. As expected, long, unbroken drives aren't the most pleasant things, especially when you factor in the motorway neanderthals....I digress. Pulled up at the Coopers Mill into the car park next door as I wanted to see what all the fuss was about regarding Yeovil Country Park....less said about that the better, a 2 hour walk took 5 because I have the world's worst sense of direction.. After being shredded to bits by Yeovil's wonderful countryside, I nipped into Coopers Mill for a cheeky cider and a bite to eat, it is thoroughly modern and inviting, the staff were 'bend over backwards' friendly and ordering was simple (thank goodness). I plumped for the bacon and beef burger which took around 15 minutes to arrive (there weren't many people in at 15:30) and it was as nice as the cider I had (sorry, can't advertise). The only gripe I had which was beyond the pub's control was a loud mouthed family (more the father than anyone else) who obviously never got taught how to be when around other people..

Stopped by for lunch whilst on holiday. Typical pub (chain is Greene King) food properly cooked. Polite and helpful staff. Reasonably priced. Had our dog with us, which was no issue, water bowl provided without asking. Only points of note, parking nearby is changeable, parking in pub is free, register at the bar, women's toilet doors need new locks, none lockable also glasses dishwasher needs overhaul as glasses could have been cleaner.

Michael and Beth were excellent and very accomodating to our big family group. Good meals and drinks. Thanks

Love all the staff! Food is amazing 👏 only negative is the woman's toilets, the doors have been broken for months, they definitely need fixing ASAP! This is how woman have to pee.. you'd have a more privacy, less stress of a wee going ioutdoors in a bush. Definitely needs attending soon.

Great family visit but missed salad bar

Popped in with our grandson for lunch - lovely food,great service from Penny &Little Beth.👍🤩

Our waitress Summer was delightful, Service was great Food was delicious.

Had a roast and pudding and was 10/10 and good value for money and lovely staff and highly recommend will be back

Great pub. Always a good place to go catch up with friends and family. We enjoy the atmosphere especially when the football is on

Friendly great service from Penny

Nice pub ,short walk from the Manor.Good food and good ales.

Stopped here on way home from Cornwall for some dinner. Really disappointed with my food. Husband had gammon which was fine but my fish and chips was awful. The fish was either reheated or very overcooked. Really chewy and dry. Quite a lot of loud groups there but it was a Friday evening so we probably should have expected that. Just wanted a relaxing meal in the sunshine to end our holiday

Had a really good lunch at Coopers Mill in Yeovil served by Michael who is an excellent employee and was working really hard, very busy.

Lovely meal tonight at Coopers Mill, delicious food and excellent service from Michael, very friendly and attentive.

Great choices of good solid pub food and well kept beers. Perfect for a family group and right on the edge of Yeovil Country Park. Michael and Dylan worked hard to make sure we had everything we needed, even going to great lengths to find some butter for one of our party.

Went for Sunday lunch. Which was very nice. Had to wait a while for it to arrive but was nice. The service was good but unfortunately painfully slow. We ordered desserts and 40 minutes later they still hadn’t come out. In the end we cancelled them and left. Nice place and food just need to hurry your service up.

Yet another great day out with my wife and friends we all had the seniors three course meals with fizz we also were aloud to bring our dog
