Elysian in Sedgemoor

I could have easily given this place 5* however they charged me £5 for a pretty basic ham sandwich and a handful of crisps. I wish I'd said something but with a lot of locals around the bar I felt like I couldn't and I didn't want to insult the owner. Such a shame because the place is nice, decent prices for drinks. They also had a large selection of well maintained board/card games and a nice outdoor area on the green.

Lovely little hide away, lovely staff in the hotel, very clean room.

We've been in Somerset for a few years now, and are not far from Saffron Indian Restaurant. We'd heard very good reviews from all our friends and family over the last few years, and finally we got around to booking up. So pleased we did. We went with another couple and we had a great evening. We went on a Friday evening in early November. Booking was easy. We got seated quickly and cordially, as the staff we're quite attentive. We did ask to move seats soon after, as a group of 4 'Hinkley workers came in and were seated next to us and they were quite loud. The next seating they took us to was perfect. The menu is extensive with all the usual eastern fare (Bombay, Bengali, Biriyani and some Persian dishes). I was pleased to see a Lamb Shashlik there, as it's one of my go-to dishes, that or a Lamb Dansak. We ordered our drinks and food (and a selection extras, rice and nan breads) and we started with Papadoms and Onion Bhaji. The Bhaji were large and light - excellent. No greasy at all. The main meals arrived as we chatted and laughed our way through the evening. My Lamb Dansak was amazing. Perfectly seasoned, not oily, and perfect level of spice for me. I have to say, the garlic nan breads were heaven ... I could have feasted on these alone. Other meals in my party looked amazing too; Chicken Shashlik, Lamb Korma and the Vegetable Biriyani. We'll definitely be back, and it won't take so long this time. It'll be a nice break from all the Christmas meals that we're about to put away soon. Highly recommended. Do book up soon, you won't be disappointed. It's a favourite local hotspot of many in the area. I now know why. Wish I'd gone sooner. There is free local street parking available. It's wheelchair and child friendly. They do take-aways too. Enjoy.

Worst chinese I've ever had. Special curry was tasteless. I asked for chicken balls with curry sauce but when I got home I had sweet and sour sauce instead. Chicken balls were just all batter and not much chicken. Will not be going back again.

I have never been in here before and I can honestly say it went above and beyond my expectations as well as my family's. The food is good quality lovely and fresh The portion sizes are very good. We will definitely be coming back. We had a Hawaiian burger A cow and chicken burger A Somerset burger Lasagne chips and salad.
