La Campagna Restaurant & Bar in South Somerset

We had a puncture on the way to Devon and limped a few miles along the road until we pulled into this gem of a pub. We were greeted by friendly staff who were so helpful in trying to advise us on the local tyre and breakdown services in the area. We stopped and had coffee until the AA arrived and decided to have lunch whilst waiting for the car to be sorted. The pizzas, and coffee were so delicious. It really made a stressful situation turn into a very relaxed event. We were even asked to review the new Christmas cocktail and name it! (White Velvet btw) which was equally delicious, that I asked for the recipe 🍸 Thank you so much for being our saviours for the day! Wish we were locals as we would definitely be back.

Delicious food friendly staff great stop from the West Country authentic Italian food just on the A303 we had a proper decompress after a busy journey. I had sea bass and my partner had saltimbocca which were both excellent

Found this restaurant by driving past and enjoyed a lovely dinner. Both meals were a good size with a generous serving of meat. The only thing to slightly let down the evening was the slow service. It took a long time to receive our two drinks and we waited long enough to wonder if we were meant to order our food at the bar! After the meal, we waited nearly half an hour and wondered if our waitress had actually finished her shift at 9pm so didn't bother asking for a dessert menu. The waitress we had also didn't smile for the whole evening. This wouldn't stop us returning though as the food was lovely and hopefully we'd get someone different!

Such a fantastic restaurant! We went for a family birthday meal and were very impressed with the welcome and the vast menu options. The food was incredible and the service by both Chloe and Nevila was faultless. I am so pleased to have discovered this restaurant and can’t wait to visit again. Outstanding, keep up the good work! ☺️

This restaurant is well worth a visit if you are on holiday in Buckland St Mary, Somerset. Me and my partner had a lovely meal, fresh salads, pasta and good choice on menu reasonable price too.

We all chose the Sunday roast, choice of meats that came out with veg, gravy, roast potatoes and a delicious Yorkshire pudding. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff.

Fabulous food reasonably priced. Excellent service. Clean friendly place. Don’t just drive by stop and enjoy especially sea bass garlic bread and tiramisu! Will def go back brilliant place. Great parking too.

The Eagle tavern got us out of a tight spot at very short notice. We'd booked a meal for 12 at a local restaurant but they had a power cut all day so cancelled us with 3 hours notice (not their fault at all but unfortunate). The Eagle Tavern or La Campagna, fitted us in so after a lot of calling people 9 of us made it. The food and service was excellent and we ended up having a brilliant evening. We couldn't fault anything.

Our second visit, equally enjoyable as the first. Atmosphere was very good, very friendly staff. Enjoyable food. I rarely, if ever give 10 out of 10 rating as no one’s perfect!

What we had was very good, however the menu has changed so our favourite is no longer on there. The food was good but not as good as it used to be.

We went for Christmas lunch today, it was stunning, I could not fault the food or the amazing staff. I had the turkey and my wife had the lamb, simple great. Both our plates were almost licked clean. Warm and friendly staff, it was a lovely time and besides being out favourite restaurant throughout the year,we would not go anywhere else for Xmas lunch.

We had a lovely waitress but unfortunately the food was not great for the price paid and service was pretty slow! We had garlic bread as a table starter as none of us wanted an actual starter then we had mains. Just this took 2hrs! Reluctant to order dessert we were assured it wouldn’t be a long wait but that was a good 20 mins and £6:50 for 3 scoops of not great quality ice cream was not worth the wait! We spent over £120 here and had a service charge of £17 which I find pretty bad considering the wait time and quality of food! To be perfectly honest the cannelloni I had was bland and unfortunately I don’t recommend eating here

very dissapionted 16 people mega meal ,service was underpass ,my chicken is tarragon sauce to strong, asked service for more water on tables,didnt turn up ,was a 10% service charge on my bill which I didn't notice until I paid bill, couple of people in group had tuff grizzle in their steaks, the 4 children's meal came with free ice cream the didn't turn up ?when paying bill didn't get free chocolate mints?,service didn't ask if food was ok when everyone was eating ?,pudding menus was given out but no one came back to ask if anyone would like puddings for the amount the four families payed this was pore won't be going back in a hurry

We all had great time, food fantastic, atmosphere perfect and staff were amazing for our large group. Group had pasta, steaks, pizza all of which cooked to perfection. Will definitely be returning - thanks!

I had a very good day at Salisbury Races, and with a two hour trip home, I wanted to break the journey and have dinner, rather than going home to cook! I was very warmly welcomed, and shown to a table, which I was given a choice off! Their is a good choice on the menu, but I was ready for a steak. This was cooked perfectly, and I was asked if everything was ok for me, and yes I was very happy! A good choice of desserts too, and the Pannacotta was perfect. I highly recommend this lovely restaurant, and sure I will be calling in again soon!

I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food.The servce was very friendly and efficient, the chef came out to ask how the food was too.We sat in a covered outside area wich was pleasant on a hot day. I had a very nice glass of white italian wine,and butternut squash ravioli that was really delicious, with butter and sage it was authentic and a good sized portion. They had a separate vegan menu for my lunch companion. There was a very pleasant ambience. Will definitely return.

A lovely night out. Great food excellent staff and even the background music was lovely. Thoroughly recommended.

The restaurant was clean and well lit with the tables nicely spaced, background music was just that, and the ambience was very good. Our waitress for the night was Amber, who was excellent & very attentive. The drinks and food orders were taken, and the service was excellent. We ordered cocktails 🍸 which were very good, followed by a shared starter (garlic/tomato/pizza). The 3 mains were all good portions, well presented and very tasty (cannelloni, tagliatelle/Duck/Parma Ham/Mushrooms/Marsala & Cream, Lamb Shank). We then decided to have the shared dessert, excellent choice, and mixed selection for up to 4 people. The whole meal and experience was excellent, reasonabley priced, well done to all the Team. Definitely recommend and will revisit when next in the area again.👏👏👍

This was my wife’s birthday treat for me. We have driven passed this restaurant on numerous occasions. On my wife’s suggestion several weeks ago we booked a table for two. We are glad we booked, even at the reasonably early time of 6:00pm the restaurant filled quickly. The service was friendly, efficient but not in your face. The food was delicious, very nicely presented. It was some the hottest restaurant food I’ve ever been served, hats off to the kitchen team! The antipasto was so good next time we may have it as a main course!

2nd time here and just as good as the 1st visit. Great food service and price. We live near Worthing but had a better seafood selection here than nearer the coast!!

Lovely staff and great good. We had the pane al fresco and a pizza napoletana. All delicious. The pizza dough is freshly made each morning 😋

Excellent food and service. Very friendly staff. Food was delicious: Gnocchi, Calamari, Pizzas, Lasagna and Tiramisu. Food was very reasonably priced - we went for the two and three courses; £16.95 for two courses & £20:95 for three courses. This venue is now on our list for places to eat when we travel to Devon and Cornwall. Thank you for such a delicious lunch xx

Such an impressive Italian Restaurant never fails on quality of food and superb service. A lovely friendly relaxed atmosphere all at good prices just wish could we could go every week.

My friend and I enjoyed a perfect meal, we chose the duck and I cannot wait to have this again as it was cooked to perfection and the presentation was fab. Can’t wait to return.

good food and service, just a shame their heating had broken so we ate with our coats on the night of the snow! However the food and service was excellent

Called in on the way home around 2.00pm on a Sunday. Quite a few people in there. Attentive waitresses. Nice menu. Hubby had seafood pasta, I had the roast lamb. Both meals were good sized portions. My roast wasn’t quite as hot as it could have been - but when waitress checked I didn’t say anything as I was enjoying it. Gravy needed a bit of meat stock in it. Hubby said pasta was great - guess I’m the fussy one 😊

Had wonderful pizza, calzone and tiramisu. Generous portions and friendly service. Excellent spot to break journey on A303.

I have driven past many times on route to London but decided yesterday to stop and we all where very pleased that we did as the food and service was excellent! Will definitely be going back!!!

Went out for date night 🙂 fabulous food cooked exactly as it should be. A* service, very friendly and efficient. Absolutely will be coming back again very soon.

I have been here on several separate occasions now and have never been disappointed. The food is very high quality and the managers are obviously very eager for the guests to have a good experience. So far I have had the duck (amazing), a salad...

Excellent range of Italian food. Waitress last night was off the scale brilliant. Nice atmosphere. Very adaptable to special requests. Slight negatives, it's very bright in there for an evening meal, disappointed they were no longer serving parma ham and melon as a starter and...

The food was amazing, could not fault it. Turkey stunning,duck stunning. Staff awesome,this is our favourite restaurant.

We took our son and daughter-in-law to this restaurant on Sunday 13th November as we had previously enjoyed a meal there. My son and daughter-in-law hadn’t been out for a whole year due to a seriously sick child so we wanted to treat them ....

We visited this awesome restaurant today along with my cousin and his wife. We had been in communication with La Campagna for a few days after we asked if the Sunday roast came with parsnips (I am allergic to parsnips!! I know right...!!). From the...

With 16 friends & family it was the very best place to celebrate my significant birthday. The staff were outstanding so friendly and very professional. The food was amazing it all came out at the same time and all hot (all credit to the chefs)...

We were treated to sunday lunch here which we very much enjoyed. There is plenty of choice on the menu, I had sea bass, my husband the lasagne,, followed by desserts; mango sorbet was a light choice but 2 others chose the Banoffi pie. All...

Wonderful! Visited on a Sunday evening with my partner after struggling to find somewhere open in the area so thought we'd try here as never visited before. We both had chicken risotto which was a massive portion, didn't take long to arrive and was very...

We have visited this restaurant many times in the past and had excellent food hence why we are happy to travel a long distance to visit. HOWEVER we went on Friday for a birthday meal and it has put us off returning again! We waited...

Great Italian cuisine, freshly prepared. Eaten her two evenings so far on our week staying near Wellington. Will eat here again at least once this week

Service was excellent and very friendly. Food was really good. We had calzone and lasagne. Our waitress ( Chloe) was really helpful when a guest became ill and worked really hard. Just need some bike racks as we cycled from the campsite nearby and had...

Stopped here for food before heading to the airport. The food was absolutely stunning and the waitress amber was so lovely 😊

True Italian restaurant serving top quality food. Ate here as a couple whilst staying at the nearby caravan site. Lovely warm Italian welcome from a host of warm smiling staff. Shown to a covered outside dining area on a lovely warm summer’s evening with background...

Excellent real Italian food, service and ambience. Took my half brother and his 2 children..one is autistic who loved his meal too. Will come again !

We visited again - just the two of us - a few days ago after several interim visits with family. We have enjoyed it each time. We were served once again by cheery Chloe who looked after us very well with her Renée Zellweger smile....

We usually come and are always welcomed, the food is lovely as usual and the service is good too, the pollo funghi the best,

Nothing special, expensive for what you get and no real atmosphere, much better places out here.Shame as it’s a fairly nice place with a lovely garden area.

La Campagna on the A303 near Chard Easy parking on the A303 makes La Campanga a good spot to stop off on that Cornwall journey, but it it more than this too. Online booking is available, but we spoke to a real person by phone...

We are regulars here and so pleased this is on our doorstep. Lunch today was great, rump steak and monkfish, consistently good, every time. Very friendly and professional staff and management, highly recommended.

We stopped for lunch on the way back to Kent and it was nice. The two course lunch menu is very good value and it would’ve been nice to try one evening if we were local. Only feedback would be that the Pasta Carbonara could...

Fantastic place to stop by during your drives around Cornwall. Tasty Italian food straight from the oven. Helpful and attentive staff

Una bella sorpresa !!! La migliore pizza mai mangiata fuori dall’Italia (ps in Italia è difficile trovare una pizza buona...

Had a very pleasant experience here! Probably one of the best Italian we have been to! Lovely food and great service!

We came here for Mother’s Day… never again. Firstly we found our waiter to be very rude and lacked ‘customer service’. We then had to wait over an hour for our meals (which may have been acceptable if they had let us know there’d be...

I have been a long term supporter of La Campagna as you will tell from the first review they ever received when they opened up but I am a sorry to say my experience last night was a contrast from that at the beginning. My...

We've eaten here on 2 separate occasions approx. 6 months apart and on both occasions we've been impressed and had a good time. All most reasonable people want from a restaurant is a friendly welcome (following an easy online booking system) clean, nicely spaced tables,...

Looked to find a place to meet friends going back home to Cornwall and we found this place online. SO SO GLAD we did! Food excellent! Service excellent! Price excellent! Couldn’t fault anything, which for us picky lot says loads. Portions very generous too. Looking...

Back again becoming a habit whenever we're back in Somerset! Whatever we order has always been excellent, this time round lamb shank, salmon, seafood risotto etc. Were demolished by all. Excellent service even though they were busy , already looking forward to the next visit!

This is our favourite place to eat. The staff make it ,they are the reason we love eating there. The food is always great, well priced and tasty. We had olives, bread, bduscatta, lasagne and pizza, boy where we full, followed by a really good...

I have enjoyed a number of meals here with a friend and can honestly say that the staff are always friendly and welcoming, the food has always been excellent, and the service has always been excellent. It is so easy to access their online booking...

Went here with some friends early December, on their recommendation. Lovely food, great service. Two of the group had the Xmas special, it looked great, tasted great, and they were disappointed that they couldn't fit dessert in as the main was so plentiful. Definitely recommended

Our bruschetta starter was excellent and we were very much looking forward to the main course. When the main courses arrived (pizza al funghi and seafood linguine), we were seriously underwhelmed. Both dishes lacked serious flavour and tasted no better than your supermarket ready meal....

We went here tonight as a family for my son's birthday , what a great evening food was excellent , service was brilliant well worth a trip .Thank you to the staff As there was 11 of us , nothing was too much trouble

In food and service. We have been many times now and are never disappointed. In fact our children/grown up grandson came from Portsmouth and stayed with us just to go back and eat there. Fabulous Italian food and wine. Worth every penny And the lunch...

Stopped off on way home from Cornwall. Very helpful friendly staff and lovely food. Just what we needed for a break on journey and so much better than “Services” Would definitely recommend

Fabulous lunch, great staff and service, homemade deserts are amazing, see picture below. Will definitely visit again 😊

My wife and I had a family meal here to celebrate our wedding day. There were 18 participants ranging from 2 years old through to late 60's, Vegetarians and celiac. Throughout the planning stage for this event the "can do" attitude of the restaurant was...

Really lovely place. We stopped off here on our way to Heathrow and had a great meal. Really tasty food and really friendly staff. Would definitely recommend 😊

Our first time trying this fairly new arrival to our area and we were delighted. Warm and ambient atmosphere, subdued lighting with a healthy, chatty buzz of happy diners. Gentle, unobtrusive background jazz playing. Warm welcome and discreet but amicable service from Chloe and Jonida....

I have made two visits to this restaurant in September, the first was our wedding anniversary and the second was a father and son evening meal. Both visits were excellent, food and service was fantastic both times, will definitely go again.

Booked the day before. Service was excellent. The salon pasta dish was tasty and plenty of it. The Pollo funghi was tough and the saute potatoes were hard boiled potatoes, not sure they had seen a saute?!

Great find and lovely to have this practically on our doorstep. Food was excellent and desserts to die for. Staff could have been friendlier though. Would still go back

Great restaurant for every occasion, the food is great. We've been a few times now and not had a bad meal, the Calzone is out of this world! The garden is great for families, and the tables are spaced so ypu don't feel on top...

Delicious food, polite and helpful staff. A good selection of Italian dishes as well as others. Our dishes were generous and very tasty.

Visited today for a family birthday. A lovely venue with fantastic friendly service. Extensive food and drink menu and all meals were thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Lovely little Italian restaurant run by lovely staff. I’m celiac and had lots of options including a delicious creamy mushroom pasta dish! Really friendly staff. They sung happy birthday to my husband and gave us complimentary fizz as we were away for our minimoon. Can’t...

Nice fresh food. Reasonably priced. Family friendly with play area in the garden. Service a little stiff. Staff could have been a little more cheerful

My wife and I attended this wonderful establishment today Sunday 5th September , my wife is a coeliac and we always carry her bread along with spread and asked if it was at all possible we could have garlic bread made from these items. Nothing...

We booked here for our first night on holiday and we're so glad we did, it was very yummy! Service was good, big portions but very tasty!

Well organised despite being very busy. Very friendly service and excellent food. Too many choices! First visit but not the last

Took my wife here on Sat 21st Aug for her birthday, first time visitors, booked our table via Facebook messenger which was nice and easy and quick replies from Riza. When we arrived at 8pm there was friendly and prompt service, although busier than we...

After searching for nearly two hours for somewhere that was serving food we came across La Campagna because of the road diversions around Taunton. Open and serving food all day it was an Italian restaurant with an English look from the outside. We went a...

3rd visit here and was blown away by a faultless meal ...superb! Staff are always efficient and the menu extensive (pizza, pasta and rissotto as you would expect) but also a good selection of meat and fish dishes which are superb. Pork tenderloin stuffed and...

We stopped on a journey home and were amazed at the food. It’s like being transported to Italy - authentic and delicious. I wish this restaurant was nearby!

Very nice location, staff friendly and welcoming. Food was great and very reasonable compared to London prices. Portions were big too

Visited whilst on holiday in the area. Nice ambience to the restaurant and friendly welcome and service. Extensive menu, including the pizzas and pastas you would expect, but a good selection of fish and meat dishes as well as vegetarian options. All in all a...

When I went into the restaurant to collect the food the environment looked great for eating in, fairly modern and romantic, but we ordered a take away from them. It only took around 15-20 minutes from point of order and it was waiting for us...

Very smart restaurant with a varied menu. We happened to stop by on our long journey home. We both had a starter size portion of pasta as we only wanted something light for lunch. The staff were more than happy for us to do this...

What an amazing find, thank you TripAdvisor. Staying in Chard and was looking for somewhere to have dinner. Booking was easily done online. Covid measures in place at the restaurant. Staff were welcoming, friendly and extremely helpful. Food was amazing. We had the mussels to...

The food was absolutely amazing. I had Risotto ai Frutti di Mare which was the best risotto I have ever tasted (and I've tasted quite a few!). My husband had Quatro Stagioni which was HUGE and brilliant, and chips; I had Zucchini Frutti, which were...

Well credit where credit due, I’d give it 6 stars instead of 5. Antipasti to share, rump steak, mixed salad and béarnaise sauce , requested medium cooked and it was cooked to perfection. Hubby managed to fit in a cheesecake too, his favourite dessert so...

Lovely food and lovely staff. Ate here twice in 2 days. Can highly recommend. Would certainly return when we are in the area.

Really warm welcome on arrival, service was great as was the food, will definitely look out for a La Campagna on my travels. Great food and service at a reasonable price.

What friendly people, such quick service, nothing is too much trouble and great food! It’s also really great to have a choice of Italian wine and beer. I hope to be back again soon!

Absolutely fabulous...can't recommend enough. Food is vibrant, fresh, tasty and authentic with great service and an extensive drinks menu too. You can choose from a la carte or a fixed lunch menu, just £13.95 for 2 courses. You can't go wrong here! Rez and his...

Incredible food, amazing and chilled ambience and very hospitable considering we just came from a long drive.
