Used to visit here once a week with friends between shifts. Was always blown away by the food. It was relatively quiet when I visited with family for my birthday meal. That being said the service was pretty lethargic. Food was great but there wasn't the wow factor I used to get from here. All in all a solid 4* though

Our friends booked a table 3 weeks, we waited an hour for our food, which still hadn’t arrived and the staff no didn’t seem bothered, and at no point did anyone inform us there was a food wait guessing there wasn’t as when you book a table at 6:30pm knowing the Brewhouse had event starting at 8pm this gave everyone involved plenty of time… however a staff member insisted we could eat our food quick .. when you are out for a evening meal you do not want to rush your meal that has been prepared… we have been here many times before and never had a bad experience… We will not be returning.

Hello eat the bird ! Where do I start….. Sadly last night will be the last time I visit eat the bird Taunton. I have given you more than enough chances and last night has just been the last straw. The restaurant in Taunton is now a joke!!! It used to be one of the best places to go for food in Taunton. I have visited since you opened and have loved your food but the service is now beyond diabolical and waiting over an hour for a burger is no longer something I will ever do again. Tonight is not a one off it's constant. It's terrible and you should be embarrassed that even your staff think it's terrible why is this happening?? Why aren't you doing anything about it??? I haven't visited for quite a few weeks because last time this happened I was fobbed off and told that it was because everyone was new. I visited tonight because I assumed that the issue would have been sorted. How wrong was I???!!! Terrible. Again. So disappointing.

Went to take advantage of the lunchtime menu while on my lunch break as it was advertised would guarantee food to your table in 10 minutes from ordering. 20 minutes later… food arrived (restaurant not even busy!) had to wolf my food down before heading back to work. Did mention to the server many times throughout ordering we were on lunch break. “we get it, you want to nip out of the office and grab something quick before you hit the desk for the afternoon session. DINE IN AND ORDER YOUR LUNCH THROUGH THE QR ON THE TABLE. IF IT’S NOT ON YOUR TABLE IN 10 MINUTES, IT’S ON US. no more lunchtime anxiety. get your hands on epic scran to set you up for the rest of the day. *t&c apply - read them here LUNCH IN 10” Sorry 4/5 for lack of quickness….. this did not happen, maybe should change it to Lunch in 20 on the safe side!!!! Food was delicious as always. Lunchtime agreement did not work. Kind of put me off from recommending to my work colleagues though. We would have said something at the time, we were concerned that about being back to work late. Paid and left.

This used to be me and my partners favourite takeaway but since last Christmas they've had an unbelievable decline in quality. The last 2 orders we've had have almost represented a completely different restaurant with how bad quality they've been. Portion sizes literally cut in half and ingredients are missing! The meal deal sized wrap in this picture cost £13.50!

Eat. The. Bird. What a surprise and I understand why my friend highly recommended it. High points - Cheeky Names, Design choices. Mix of sass, retro feel, in your face boldness. Food - great flavors and so much of it sounded good, great options for a burger/chicken joint. Service was pleasant, location clean. Casual vibe, added to enjoyment. Cocktail options/happy hours. Cons - There were some elements in design lacking fitting with the rest. Some retro elements on the wall - but like 2 for such major floor space felt lost. Price, a little on the high end but worth it enough to get over.

I have, we have eaten here before, many times, but as well all know, we judge based on our last visit or from someone we know who has been recently. The greeting was good, a smile and a hello. I was out with one of my daughters, and both were hungry. Things are looking a bit tatty now, chair covers broken, cleaning not great that kind of thing. The service has always been relaxed and chilled here, but tonight, it was almost sub zero. Painful really. The food was alright. We both had the plant based chicktator burger and shared a cheesy louisianna fries. The fries seem to have got smaller and smaller portions as visits progress. It's like the whole waggon wheel thing as kids!! Have I got bigger, or has the waggon wheel got smaller? And why oh why is there so little attention to detail when it comes to making the veggy/vegan options? Looking around us, everyone else's burgers looked tall and dare I say sexy, ours looked squished and definitely not sexy, they did though, taste really nice. Put as much attention into the alternative as the main would be my point, I think. I did have a chat when paying about my observations, and the chap listened and agreed. I hope he took this to the managers? Yes, we will go back again. We like Eat the bird, and as an independent, we need to support them. Attention to detail.

Polite and helpful service from George. He picked up that there was a birthday in the group so we got a free milkshake (dairy free!) which was a lovely touch. My son thought it was the best chicken burger he’d ever had (the Furlough). My partner and I both had platters which had plenty of food for one but the chicken was way too salty. I enjoyed the choice of music but would say it’s prob a bit too loud. Also it was a bit cold, I had to keep my coat on for the first 15 mins.

Went in thinking I’d get a takeaway but the place seemed cosy so decided to eat in. Was looked after by Gordon, admittedly I was the easiest customer in the world because I immediately picked his suggestion for food. It was great, the special had a unique flavour mix and the raspberry soda they make themselves was also a great add. Definitely going to come back at some point, easy, inviting and tasty.

Food was alight, but it tasted overcooked, like it was sitting about for a couple hours. Took a while to order the food but once ordered it wasn't long until it came out, probably because it was microwaved. nearby parking it pretty much impossible to come by. Food portions were tiny compared till the last time we went there. (see pictures) Shrinkflation, overpriced crap. One picture is from last year, one picture is from a couple days ago.

I stumbled across this place while walking past, and I'm so glad I did! The food was incredible—especially the grilled butterflied sea bass, which was absolutely delicious with a perfect crispy skin. The service was top-notch; the staff warmly greeted us and checked in throughout the meal, making it a really pleasant experience. The atmosphere was lovely, and everything felt spotlessly clean. I left feeling like I got great value for money—can’t wait to come back!
