Gone back to mortimers from Mad Hatters and absolutely shocking. Half of the jacket potato we had was hard. As for the puddings, one was inedible. Told the staff and they weren’t bothered. Was still charged for it and at £5 felt totally ripped off. The other pudding was charged £1 for a dollop of squirty cream. Waited over half an hour for someone to collect our plates and order pudding, when no one came I went to counter to order. Had to get up twice to let people in/out of table behind us, was so squashed in. We are locals and so disappointed it’s no longer Mad Hatters. Won’t be going again and certainly won’t recommend. P.S the only positive was the cappuccino was nice

What a little gem of a café! Service is excellent, friendly and personal. Dog-friendly. The burger is the best I have ever had, using local Exmoor-raised Dexter beef, with blue cheese & mushrooms. The Welsh-rarebit, cakes and cream teas are also superb and veggies are well-catered for from that respect: We’d eat here every day if we could.

Visited Dulverton on a Sunday and absolutely delighted this cafe was open. Had a warm welcome from the young lady serving. The menu is really varied with lots of choice and a great specials board. I had the soup and my husband had the South West rarebit. We both really enjoyed our meals and the staff both were very welcoming and professional. Definitely would return again as want to try other dishes on the menu! Thank you 😊

We had sour dough sandwiches they where the best ever delicious, young lady who served us was very welcoming. Would definitely return and recommended The only downside was the tables are really squashed together, had to ask people on next table to move so that we could get out the tables are so close, and lots of unnecessary stuff around making it look ever more cramped.

This is a great British traditional cafe where it’s all freshly prepared and tastes great. And the young lady serving was a delight. What a treat after some very disappointing and over priced hostelries on Exmoor this past week.

Lovely little place. We walked past it first of all when looking for lunch as seemed busy, but after no success elsewhere in the town (either too busy or menus not what we wanted) we came back. So glad we did! Rather quirky menu, everything a little bit different and exciting. We enjoyed a delicious lunch - would recommend the rarebits and my daughter loved the bubble and squeak. Recommend a visit if you are in town.

Came across this delightful restaurant by chance. we went in for coffee and decided to stay for some breakfast after seeing some food coming out from the kitchen. My husband had a breakfast and I had the Eggs Benedict, both of which were tasty and very good quality. The young lady on the coffee machine was having training but the coffee she made was so good we ordered another cup after our meal. Lovely atmosphere, splendid staff and dogs welcome, will definitely return. Thank you Mortimers.

Confusing rules re entry/queuing and too many chairs and tables in the space - inside and out. The ice cream window (crammed in between tables) also made conversation a bit difficult and the queue for this was right next to the pavement tables. The staff were friendly and the coffees (caf and decaf), ice cream and chocolate cake (gf) were excellent. Normal prices. Recommend but it is all a bit squished!

What a pretty village is Dulverton - one of the prettiest I've ever seen - and the jewel in Dulverton's crown is Mortimer's at 13 High Street (a very lucky number indeed)! We were in Seventh Heaven sitting in the gorgeous cafe, surrounded by beautiful things. The owners are very friendly without being pushy! We sat there for ages just admiring everything. The tea and coffee were just right, so refreshing! There was a vast array of home-made cakes on display, too. Inside and outside seating available. Highly recommended to all visitors to Dulverton! Love it, love it!

We made three visits to this lovely restaurant - two for lunch and the icing on the cake was brunch before we left for our long drive home.

My friend and I visited this place on a Sunday bank holiday, when all the shops were shut! We decided to have a lunch and went into this place. There was not a table available immediately as they were printing a load of menus. We sat at a table outside until they finished printing the menus. The table was then made available to us. The food was good and tasty, and the service was very good. My only critique was that the place could have done with a thorough clean. They did have hand sanitizer available. The seemed a bit disorganized. I would suggest they print a few menus and laminate them. Then just print of a contact details form for people to fill in. This would save a fortune in paper and time. As you would get 5 to 6 contact sheets per page. We would ho back if it was a bit cleaner.

Very tasty, good, home cooked food. A lot of the vegetables are grown on the owner's allotment and all the food tastes very fresh. Just pleased that it's reopened and it still has the same friendly atmosphere as before. The interior has been subtly changed to accommodate social distancing, but the tables are all well spaced apart, and you wouldn't even realise it, that's how well it's been done. When we visit Dulverton, Mortimer's is out first port of call if we fancy a light lunch or snack. Definitely worth checking out.

We usually use another cafe in Dulverton for lunch on our monthly trip to Exmoor, but yesterday it was full right up so we decided to take a stroll down to the river and stumbled upon Mortimers - the facade of the very old building is lovely with large windows (spoilt by silly 'etchings' of badger / stag etc which appear to be a left-over from Christmas and done in spray-on snow - not cool) - we received a warm welcome from a gentleman who we assumed was the owner - the interior is very nice, clean and very 'country' - the only problem was that it was freezing in the cafe, being 4 degrees C outside and I expect about 10 degrees C inside, despite a wood burner at each end of the room - one was glowing very dimly, the other just not lit - we overheard people on the tables around us all remarking on how cold the place was - the menu is interesting including a selection of Rarebits made with a 200 year old recipe - the food we had was excellent, of good quality and reasonably priced, and the coffee exceedingly good. Just one thing I was not impressed with was the state of the toilet seat in the very clean unisex loo, the underside of which was not pleasant to the eye - definitely needs a trip to Travis Perkins up the road for a new loo seat !

We waited a few minutes until the gentleman arrived from out the back. Ordered food and drink and he forgot some of the order. Once he realised he quickly cooked rest of it and once it all arrived it was lovely. Pot of tea for one actually made two full pots and could get 6-7 cups out of it. It was proper tea as well which was lovely. Place clean and tidy, lovely choice of food on menu. Christmas music in background which was lovely. Would visit again

Can't understand the negative reviews. This is a simple, family-run (I believe) café serving good honest home-made food. The burgers are big and taste fresh with probably locally-sourced ingredients, the treacle tart with clotted cream is unbelievably good. The coffee is pretty good. Ok, so the decor isn't as flashy as a Starbucks or a Café Nero, and there's a washing machine opposite the toilet. But so what? It all adds to the homey appeal. And you can be sure the food isn't mass-produced in some central warehouse like those big chain places. My only complaint is I'm never quite sure when it's open, because I've been there a few times only to find it closed! Other than that, it's a great café, my favourite in Dulverton by far.

A quirky little cafe making the best out of the space they have. Nice tea & coffee, including loose tea served in a proper china pot. However, the pot isn't the easiest to pour and i ended up with a saucer full! Coffee & walnut cake was very nice. We sat outside on the pavement with our dog but he would also have been welcome inside. Service was reasonably quick but it wasn't super busy. Our waitress was polite and friendly.Toilets are ok, but you do feel as if you're using the loo in someone's house!

Like the last comment...I agree , this is not a great place to visit and won’t be going back. Took ages to order, or get the attention of staff, and wasn’t particularly busy, service very slow ..food ok, but served with dirty cutlery and chipped crockery which puts me off completely . Eating area is stifling , with tables crammed together, public areas looks generally tired and in need of basic maintenance..nothing that a good manager couldn’t sort, it’s such a shame as it is in a good location .

We came with another family so altogether 7 people including 3 kids. We waited very long time for lunch on a Saturday. It’s a hot day and very hard to keep kids entertained in a small cafe style restaurant waiting patiently for the food. And we only ordered toasted sandwiches not full on meal! We also asked for an empty bowl for the baby twice and didn’t get anything. Eventually we walked to the till and asked for the third time and finally got it. Food tasted average, but the service is very slow, inefficient and inattentive. Not recommended for families who don’t have time to wait! Definitely not coming back again.

Popped in on a busy day but there was a table for two. My wife had done some research which recommended the cheese on toast so went for it; mine with local cheese and a dash of local cider. I'd recommend adding the various pickles (£1 extra but delicious!) Topped off with Russian Caravan tea (I went for the name as it was unusual but is a great tasting tea!). Food came pretty quickly and friendly service. What's not to like?

A small but lovingly created environment so one immediately relaxes whilst trying to choose from the menu. I had the toasted brie and bacon sandwich that was served with a side salad and some crisps. It was generous and delicious and well worth it. Even the tea was served with an extra jug of hot water. If you have a pooch, they also serve doggy ice cream. Loved it, thank you.

We made our second visit in six months to these premises and once again it was excellent. The rarebit on its own is worth the visit but we made the 'mistake ' of sitting opposite the homemade cakes that looked so good and kept calling to us, so we thought it would rude not to finish up with coffee and cake. My treacle tart was everything I was hoping for but my wife said her lemon drizzle cake although a wonderful cake was missing some lemon. The owner was as friendly and helpful as last time and I can't recommend this place highly enough and look forward to returning again later in the year.

Arrived in Dulverton somewhat frazzled after a foggy journey across the moors and we were feeling wet, cold and miserable but that soon passed as we entered the cosy atmosphere of Mortimers. There was a big welcome and an even bigger cup of hot chocolate piled high with marshmallows soon on the table. The latte was good too. We hadn't intended to do more than warm up with a hot drink but the appetising menu persuaded us to have a cranberry and brie toasty, first class, and rarebit; not sliced cheese on toast and stuck under the grill but a proper, puffed-up saucy concoction that really hit the spot. Too full to sample the tempting cakes we will return for afternoon tea another time and try out the delights on offer. Also - a very clean loo - full marks, Mortimers.

Sat down to be served , quite busy but not too bad. Waitress didn't notice us at all and seemed totally clueless , started tasks then wandered around wondering what to do next. After people who came in well after us and went to counter to order and got served,we gave up and went elsewhere. Such a shame as this used to be very good. Now staff come and go all time, its lost its direction and continuity. Staff seem to be youngsters, who don't seem to be trained or " with it "

. . Era tan bueno que se merece una crítica. No recuerdo cuyo maquillaje fue quizá el conos muy generoso, pero realmente fueron parando. Y las tartas de aspecto tan bueno. . . .

After one closed pub and one full one we came across this place on a chilly February lunchtime, and I'm so glad we did! Very friendly and welcoming staff, a super selection of lovely cakes and a nice lunchtime menu. I started with a very tasty hot chocolate (the drink bit itself was top notch, not just the mountain of cream and marshmallows on top), and all of our drinks and meals were fantastic. Did I mention the cakes? The impressive bakewell tart caught our eye as soon as we saw it, and we weren't disappointed when time for pud arrived.I loved the simple continental style prices on the menu too; more places should do this to save everyone the bother of faffing around trying to add up 95 and 99p all the time.I'm trying to think of something that we didn't like just for balance, but I really can't; for example, even though it's only a tiny place, they had still found space for a little baby change area, which made our visit that little bit easier.If we find ourselves in the area again we won't bother looking for a pub, we'll come straight here again (I'll be trying the rarebit next time...).

We called in for a light lunch and ended up so full that we had to cancel our evening meal! The food was delicious and plentiful and the staff very friendly.

We have been in a few times to Mortimers having walked past many times before. Very glad we went in, WE have been for tea and cake, a long Sunday brunch and a few lunches and it's always decent food fairly priced with lots of choice. Staff are nice (if a bit busy sometimes doing it all themselves) and there is lovely local art to see too!

Great hot cappacinos and hot fresh breakfasts and pannini. Service was efficient and friendly. Would have given 5 stars if the cafe had been cosy and warm. On a chilly winter's day it was not really warm enough inside.

Home made cakes, scones etc delicious. My particular favourite is the Halloumi salad with a delicious honey dressing. Highly recommend as a place to go for lunch.

After my warm fluffy scones, cream tea experience, last year, I vowed to try Mortimer's savouries. A longer than expected walk down the River Barle to Hawkridge found us weary and hungry at Mortimer's door step. We were seated right next to the log burner. I had South West rarebit which was absolutely loaded with strong melted cheddar and loads of lovely shredded ham and a nice salad and my wife had the seafood platter - the portion was so large that food was literally falling off the board! I really wanted to try some of those delicious looking cakes afterwards, but i was absolutely stuffed. Oh and the pot of leaf assam tea was just the perfect accompaniment. I'll definitely be back next time I'm out on Exmoor.

We stopped here for tea and cake. We both had carrot cake which was delicious and best bit for me was the loose leaf tea and what a choice. I had an oolong. We also had a lovely chat with the waitress as it was quiet and we felt really welcome as visitors. Would recommend to any tea or cake lover.

We go to Dulverton every couple and always have breakfast. Have not been to Mortimors before as it never looks busy. However today we did and it was splendid. Brilliant poached eggs on thick granary toast and excellent scrambled eggs on thick white toast. Both as good as we have had anywhere. Bacon delicious flavour but a little overlooked (hard) - Hence only 4 stars for food. Cafetière of coffee was superb. Cappuccino also very good. Inexpensive and very good, friendly service. We shall return.

Cakes and coffee are very good with a good choice, everything appears to be home cooked. Only point for us on a negative note when we visited was the atmosphere was strange, could do with some background music to improve the ambience!

It was a warm place to enjoy a home meal in a rainy day. They have children's specials and delicious cakes. Perfect for families.

Lovely cakes and a very nice setting! We thought that the cakes and drinks were reasonably priced too which always makes cake taste better!
