We had a delicious dinner for 20 people this weekend in the semi private red dining room. The food was really good and the carnivores and vegans were happy. I think the new owners had some issues caused by the storm recently and had to close for a short time, but they pulled out the stops and you wouldn’t have known. Also great location for weekend walks

This is the 4th time of visiting and have not had a single experience that I would call less than superb. Opted for the beef on this occasion, pink, juicy and tender. All the accompaniments were spot on. Went for additional cauliflower cheese, which I would recommend that you do too!! Friendly, helpful and unfussy staff. Only pick for me in the Taunton area!!

The main road was flooded during Storm Bert whenI had to make my way home from Somerset to Cornwall and I was forced to take a detrour. Every road I tried was flooded and, 4 hours later I was getting desperate as I went past the Lamb and Flag, I stopped and told them I was lost. Pat amd his team could not have been kinder or more helpful, made me tea anc coffee and let me warm up. They gave me directions and headed off the melt-down I was close to having. Thank you so much - and the mad woman with the BMW got home safely, thanks to you guys.

Decided to try again supporting local pub for Sunday unch. Quite a wait to be welcomed by one of just two hardworking front staff. Room felt cold esp with the ashes of the last fire in the burner but no welcoming fire lit. Good response from kitchen re an allergy request. Food quality of roast meal excellent but maybe due to staff levels was lukewarm when it arrived. Raised this and it was taken away but really not much warmer when it came back. Pleasant staff seem overstretched for guest numbers. We had intended to have desserts and coffee but left. A great shame with such good quality food produced.

Following a warm and friendly welcome we both had a really lovely meal. I especially enjoyed the chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream. We will certainly return to try the Christmas menu. I'm sure it must have been just a 'blip' and a one-off but my only disappointment was that the fire wasn't lit and the atmosphere a bit chilly. However, we plan to return soon.

We’d heard good things about this pub and decided to give it a visit. Warm welcome when we arrived and great atmosphere in the pub. Ordered 4 x roasts 2x Beef, 1 x Lamb & 1 Pork. Generous portions, beautifully cooked beef. All accompanied by excellent vegetables, potatoes and superb gravy. Red cabbage was outstanding! Deserts good and wine was reasonably priced and very moreish! Nice selection of draft beers from Brew Dog “Wingman” to Cruz Campo. Service good and not intrusive and overall I can only compliment the food and service. We’ll be back for sure!

Lovely lunch. My partner and I stopped at the pub both on Saturday and Sunday for lunch. Both times the food was excellent. The roast was fantastic with excellent lamb and beef on the menu. Very delicious sticky toffee pudding that made us come back again for Sunday lunch. The beer was fantastic and a very good pint of otter ale. An excellent dog friend pub with very friendly staff front of house and excellent chefs who made us very full and happy. Thank you for a lovely time.

Arrived at 2.30pm for Sunday lunch. The pub was busy with a couple of large parties, hence our later reservation. Lunch arrived at 3.20pm,an unacceptable wait for a roast lunch. I do feel that our order did not go through to the kitchen, a waitress noticed we were still waiting and rushed through, to the kitchen. Beef didn’t have much flavour, and a little tough, my husband’s Lamb was the tail end of a joint.. fatty and chewy. Our vegetables were inconsistent. No Broccoli on my husband’s plate, no parsnips on mine. The gravy was tasty and thick, however i think that it would be preferable for guests to add their own . Only 2 lovely waitresses were on duty, which clearly was not enough for a busy Sunday lunchtime.

Was up this way and popped in for some food due to a friends recommendation after the change in management. It was lunch time and I wasn't too hungry, but I got a roast beef baguette, whilst my parents wanted something a bit bigger, and the chef gave us his dinner menu and told us he could make up anything we wanted as long as he had the ingredients, which was extremely accommodating. The price wasn't cheap and a bit over budget from what we normally eat, but the quality was definitely worthy of the price. I'm not a connisur by any means, but man the roast beef was bloody good! My mum and dad had the sausage meal and the burger meal. Sausage and mash definitely was sausage and mash, hard to really get into detail on such a classic dish, but man that burger was giant in the best way, clearly hand made and put together moments before it was on the plate to the point I regretted not getting it myself haha. We had ice cream after as our budget was already hit but we wanted something sweet, and it was honestly the best ice cream I've ever had, which I was not expecting. I asked who it was (granny gothards) and I fully plan on buying some in for myself haha. The music seemed to be some nice background music pieces that really added to the atmosphere of the dining experience. Tl;Dr this is a nice cosy pub for a drink, and a place to have a good, tasty meal that's worth the price. Its no gastro pub with cheap and cheerful food and prices, but you do get what you pay for in my opinion.

With its new management and head chef (Patrice Carroll), we'd heard rumblings about The Lamb & Flag so had to make a trip down for a Sunday roast. We had a hearty beef roast with the most incredible veggies and a side of cauliflower cheese. The BEST roast I have had, period. Following the main, we indulged in a locally sourced cheese board, a decadent chocolate and peanut butter tort, and enough pints to please a small army! The staff were attentive, friendly, and welcoming. The atmosphere was warm, jovial and friendly, with a large sign that read: "Dogs, muddy boots, and families very welcome". 10/10 we will be coming back.

Very helpful staff. Only recently reopened and what a difference! The beer was perfect and wine lovely. Highly recommended! Staff couldn't do more and very friendly.

Thought we would try after being shut again for the 3rd time in 3 months. Wish we didn't! New manager or should I say trainee seems nice but hasn't got a clue on how to pour a pint, hope he can run pub better. As wasting so much beer. Very flustered, and cant change a barrel. Beer tastes vile have you cleaned the lines due to bejng closed for so long?food is OK. Not great though. And not worth the money they charge. Staff are rude and attitude from one staff is awful. Suggestion. Get the manager some training and new staff who dosen't bad mouth the manager to customers. Maybe the pub should stay closed until taken over but a brewery?

The seafood chowder was to die for and my guest thoroughly enjoyed her chicken burger. For dessert we both had chocolate brownies with raspberry ice cream, garnished with fresh berries. We finished our meal with coffee in the garden. A delightful return to something like ‘normality’, can’t wait to return.

This was our first visit to a pub to eat inside since lockdown . What a welcome back to going out! This feels like a proper pub . It was fully booked and had a lovely atmosphere. Despite being busy it didn't feel too much with regard to Covid. There was plenty of space and hand sanitizers everywhere. The food we all had (there were 4 of us) was superb. My hubby and I had the pan seared scallops which were divine with the coconut dahl. We both had the burger with brisket for main....so yummy! One of our friends had the lamb and went as far as to say it Michelin star quality! The staff were all very friendly and helpful and service was unhurried..All in all a really good welcome back to life after lockdown! Will be looking forward to returning.

Tonight we have just eaten what was supposed to be a Fish and Chip take away costing £10.00 per person. It was TERRIBLE!!! The Grey fish inside was scant and unidentifiable in both quality and substance. The batter was crispy enough but the chips were a mixture of potato skins and small potatoes, crispy but small in number. The boxes had been wrapped in tin foil with no identifiable marker as to the ‘right way up’ and therefore when unwrapped were covered in tipped up mushed minted peas and tartare sauce. VERY DISAPPOINTED, will not be returning there.

The meats and fish are all cooked to perfection on every dish I’ve tried or seen. Exciting sauces with the dishes too and a great veg selection to accompany each dish. The staff have a buzz and vibe about them, very helpful and all seem very happy to be working there.

I glance down through the reviews. Many people mentioned how good the food was, so we thought we'd check it out so I booked a table as part of a birthday get away for my partner. The starters, only olives and flatbreads with homemade hummus - very good.The mains, venison and the pie of the day (also, venison) were out of this world. The pastry for the pie was incredible. I've never tasted anything like it before. If they made mince pies using this (the pastry, not the venison) they would be onto a complete winner.I had emailed ahead to ask if they were able to 'birthday' up the pudding, and they didn't disappoint. The puddings were really nice and had a chocolate made birthday message with them. The service was first class. Such an enjoyable night. Would highly recommend.

Our meal order was taken quickly too and the food didn’t take long to come. I had the sea bream, which was perfectly cooked and was delicious. My husband had the burger which was also very good, as were son number 1’s steak and son number 2’s duck. Good portion sizes. Son number 1 is a bit of a sticky toffee pudding connoisseur and he gave it the thumbs up, and son number 2 and I had the chocolate mousse, with Chantelle cream and raspberries. It was more solid than we were expecting but none the worse for that. Very smooth and rich. Top marks Lamb and Flag, we will be back! Thanks.

Stood around waiting for someone to acknowledge and seat us. Sat waiting with no menus provided and had to go and find them ourselves. Asked if there was a drinks menu-no; waiter listed about 15/20 drinks quickly (No menu no prices). Starters were cold. When asked how they were, we advised they were cold but tasted nice. No apology given but instead seemed annoyed. Mains- Asked for spice in the mild curry when ordering. Came out mild and it was a small portion. Chips were cheap frozen chips, oven cooked not fried. Waiter mockingly asked if the mains were hot enough. Another waitress cleared the plates and asked how the meal was. We said ok, thanks. Waiter then stormed over saying ‘you weren’t happy with the meal why not?’ We didn’t even complain to the waitress. As he confronted us, we advised about the curry not having any spice, having specifically asked for it. He interrupted and said ‘it’s for the general public; you want spice you ask.’ I again advised that I had asked when we ordered. Again no apology, just annoyance. No money taken off the bill either, nothing.COVID measures were non-existent. Waiter spoke very loud and leaned over the tables into your face- with no mask on. Some of the party were ill after the visit. If you like mediocre food and poor service with the possibility of coronavirus then it’s worth a visit. At least it was ‘eat out to help out’ as we certainly wouldn’t have been happy to pay the full price.

We were passing through travelling further south so thought we’d stop for lunch. A nice looking country pub with a decent menu. We ordered lentil burgers and a fish & chips, standard pub fayre. It was ok, lentil burgers lacked any real flavour apart from the pickled veg on top and the fish was a bit soggy and not really how ‘beer batter’ is imagined. The chips were good though! Lucky to get the Eat out to help out discount otherwise it would have felt a little disappointing.

We had booked for Mother’s Day a few months in advance but due to the covid19 we didn’t feel like going and asked if they would do a takeaway roast for all 10 of us split into two separate bags for both families they were brilliant and the food was great and very tasty. I hope they make it through the hard times ahead and can’t wait to eat in.

Great staff and nice atmosphere but is anyone else having problems with the “T-bone steak. This is our second visit where it was small and full of fat and gristle.

Went out for birthday meal with family.Food excellent as was the service from the moment we arrived.Was a bit early so we sat at the bar and chatted with friendly staff.Beer was also excellent, Butcome Gold was my choice. Had 3 courses and all were wonderful. I had the lamb and it was cooked to perfection. We also had the belly pork, and steak for mains which all were of the same standard.Also as we have dogs and it is lovely not to have to leave them in the car and they also got given some dog treats.

Got a last minute table for Sunday lunch and it was fantastic. Amazing beef, huge Yorkshire and great roast potatoes! It was really busy and we had to wait a little while before ordering, but the waiting staff were friendly and attentive and the food arrived quickly. Good choice of beers and a good glass of red. Loved it.

Have to say we went with the hope was going to be a lovely meal!To start with when I booked I requested to be next to the fire and we weren't even in the same room for starters even tho told it was available! The waiter didnt know if food was vegetarian and once he found that out I asked what's in it he didnt know what a joke! The food itself personally was not enjoyable the potatoes were dry and starter was vile! Anyway £80 and we ended up going to subway on way home and I dont like that either but was better than what we had at the lamb and flag

Chose slow roast belly pork with black pudding balls broccoli and cabbage. All fabulous no fat evident on pork, but surprised there was no potato, not even a choice to have any on the menu. Meant we needed to have an excellent sticky toffee pudding which was more calories than I should have eaten.

Lovely old pub, service attentive and cordial. My 'roast' was very poor though. Cold vegetables, tasteless insipid chicken breast, roast potatoes that were obviously re-heated and were dry. £13.50. My second poor meal there. Like the ambience, setting, staff, but little enthusiasm for the food which has been poor.

I booked this place to meet up with friends and family on Christmas Eve - a total of 15 - 20 people. The staff were great, and the local pub atmosphere and ambience was warm and inviting. We pre-ordered our meals, and these were all delivered with no fuss, hot and on time, even though they were busy. The meals themselves were delicious. We would definitely go back here. Highly recommended and easily deserve the five star rating.

Fabulous meal and especially catered for our grandchildren. It was a 40th birthday celebration and they helped make sure our seating was right, children were happy and they helped with the whole birthday cake surprise etc. Can’t thank them enough for making our celebration special. Definitely returning for a meal out in the future.

I never ate such a delicious lamb in my life. Really nice piece of lamb with mixture of vegetables. We were all of 3 of us enchanted. Nice environment, lovely people but the most important the lammmmmb was delicious . They got also nice desserts, I loved the cheesecake.

This pub is great. We visited here the Friday of bank holiday weekend. The weather was lovely and the beer garden a wonderful place to eat lunch and spend a couple of hours on a Friday afternoon. The food was great. My party had fish and chips and the ploughman’s. Both were great. The ploughman’s was lovely and I’d highly recommend it. Defiantly worth a visit. I’ll be back next time I’m in the Taunton area

Went for sunday lunch with family of 4 table booked for 2 - 30 eventually food arrived at 4- 00 undercooked beef, veg was awful and the roasties were uncutable. Ordered deserts which took 45 mins to arrive, apple crumble was'nt a crumble it was sloppy. And after chasing each course, finally the bill at 5- 00 was glad to get out and we were overcharged for desserts we never had and drinks !!! Wont be going back !
