On the Rocks in Sedgemoor

Went out with my girlfriend from out of town, planned to meet up with a few friends, we were going to walk around cheddar then come here for some food. Girlfriend went to use the toilet and was met with a hostile staff member - telling her she was unable to use the toilet and had to buy something. She was told she should have ‘read the signs’, which she didn’t see nor locate easily. We understand it’s a rule and did plan to come in later for food but do not appreciate the lack of general manners and welcoming from staff. We didn’t come back.

This place is fantastic. Sat at the bottom of Cheddar Gorge, it is situated smack bang in the middle of the commercial area of the Gorge. The bring your own food idea is brilliant and I think more places should do this. The drinks menu here is varied and plentiful and reasonably priced too. We visited at a quiet time and we still felt a great vibe from the place. I would recommend a visit here. You will be back. So, decided to come back for another visit. I went for the house special cocktail, Rocks on fire. Only 1 per customer. The video says it all. Also got a chance to rest the batman's knowledge and he aced the test. I asked him for the perfect Jack Daniels cocktail. He replied. Jack and Coke mate.

Wonderful bar in Cheddar Gorge cocktails are amazing and the bar staff friendly it's my go to bar when in Cheddar absolutely love it! They don't do food but you can bring in your own!

Such a lovely shock and suprise to find it here in cheddar. It's my kind of bar , great music very knowledgeable and friendly staff. I've traveled a lot and the quality of the cocktails here are very good. If your In the area it's a must !!

Love this bar. Chilled, great service, background music, trendy. Makes me feel younger than I am. Cocktails, beers, softdrinks. Chipshop opposite, so able to get food from there if you need a meal.

We sat in a Monday afternoon next to the open windows in the game room with the plant ceiling, among the flamingos with crowns. I loved the atmosphere, even though I found the music a little too loud to have a conversation.

Nice place to sit and watch the world go by in a busy Cheddar on a hot day. Laid back feeling with DJs in the evening. Good choice of Tap beers and cocktails. Like that while they do not do food they welcome you to bring/have delivered from the other local eateries

Nice little cocktail bar I'm the middle of cheddar. Cocktails were a little sweet for my taste, but lovely all the same. Would recommend.

Great place with lots of board games to choose from and play

Christmas day drinking mojitos,just perfect

If you are are not serving hot drinks maybe remove your hot drinks sign. We've just drove a long way to visit Cheddar Village, the public toilets are shut and so we came here to buy a takeaway drink to be able to use the toilet because we have a dog we aren't able to sit inside, but was told you aren't serving hot drinks. So I said okay, is my husband okay to just use the toilet? And the staff says yes he can but only just this time, not another time because I will get in trouble with my manager. I'm confused at why this point was being made as if we are taking liberties when I clearly was going to buy drinks, but the drinks werent available. Irritating, and so we will just drive out of Cheddar Village instead and either find a bush or wait till we eventually find a service station to use

Amazing cocktail bar always visit when in Cheddar 😍 . Lots of choice

I had a table booked with a group of girls , got there no one knew about the booking we found a table and was told the manager would be over he didn’t come . So we then went to the bar to be told the weren't serving cocktails because it was too busy ….. very disappointed a cocktail bar not selling cocktails 🍸 it’s was a special occasion for a friends 60th

Nice time with friends for a birthday

Cashless, will never visit this again.

Lively well presented bar with great atmosphere, staff are warm and welcoming. Great selection of cocktails , and on bar . Would 100% recommend. Beautiful place to relax in beautiful Cheddar gorge …

We had a lovely quick visit at the pub. I enjoyed a lovely cocktail 🍸 and others had a local beer 🍺. Children friendly, with loads of games to keep the kids entertained. Lovely decor, each room looks different. Clean and modern bathrooms.

I’ve had the time of my life here. Drinks were amazing :))))

This is the best bar I have ever been to in my life . And I’ve been to a lot of them hahah. The service was 10/10 drinks were amazing , get down here what are you waiting for?!!! Also the interior is gorgeous and an amazing view

Lovely speedy bartender, brilliant landlord, great cocktails and a great price

Lovely evening at On The Rocks. Great cocktails and service. A must visit if you are in Cheddar.

Amazing atmosphere, brilliant drinks and friendly staff! Theme changes throughout the year to match the holidays which is always interesting. Good variety of drinks which defintiely have alcohol ;)

Great atmosphere, this has become a local for me- lovely service, great drinks- love coming here! Highly recommend, a place for everyone to feel comfortable

Great place for cocktails great atmosphere amazing staff highly recommend. The dream team xx

Absolutely amazing friendly can't do enough for his customers first time here Absolutely brilliant I wish every bar was like this are unique 👌 😀 😊 👍 lx

Lovely cocktails, lovely setting. Elderflower fizz is a winner!

A cosy and nicely decorated bar. It was just a shame the chap behind the bar was not overly welcoming.

Came in with my bf and enjoyed a romantic evening, with cocktails very friendly staff Shaun was very attentive.

Wonderful service, warm bubbly atmosphere. The cocktails are great value and delicious. I would recommend this establishment when you come and stay! Me and my friends had a lovely bartender who took care of us, thank you Shaun!! :)

Came here Thursday night with a few friends, had such a lovely and lively night. Staff were so friendly and welcoming! Will be coming again!

Lovely atmosphere and fantastic range of drinks!

Great cocktails friendly staff great atmosphere love it hot bar man xx

Great place fabulous cocktails huge choice and super friendly staff ☺️☺️

Friendly staff, good atmospherez really chilled great cocktails and karaoke on Wednesday was amazing, for a friends birthday

Wonderful unusual Pub, in the wonderful Cheddar Gorge. Visited on a Friday evening, lovely atmosphere and the mad Edd Crawley performing live music.

Lovley place, lovley staff and pub but I’m very very disappointed in the member of public who decided to steal half the food out my bag that I left there, if you were going to steal food I could of just given it to you. Sad and stingy get a life if you’re going to steal a bag of Doritos. Pathetic poor children.

Attractive place, very busy & clearly popular.

Very expensive, service is terrible and floor staff (young male) not very nice at all when I was there. Very dangerous places with the steep steps. It's a pity because it has great potential.

Early to mid evening drinks. Great cocktails well prepared and not bad value for money. Good decor, live dj and good atmosphere

We , 4 of us walked into what looked like a cool place how wrong were we We were greeted with a young woman who needed a personality transplant If she just took her head from up her arse and faced the world to be polite, nice to people that would’ve helped immensely. She was the most hostile woman we have encountered for a long time and with an attitude with capital A, so therefore we will never ever come back to that place, Hopefully the manager will take heat of this and get rid of her and replace her with somebody who can treat people without an attitude or her ounce of hostility!

Great staff, lovely cocktails and reasonably priced beer.

Didn't plan to go here as we were just passing through, but were drawn in by the fantastic look of the place. Very atmospheric and cosy on a chilly evening. Fantastic margarita and great beer. Very apres ski vibe, which we love as skiers ⛷️. Definitely recommend.

Rented out the karaoke room with a group of my friends. The cocktails were amazing and the atmosphere here was fantastic. We all had an amazing night. The service was great all night and we loved watching the bar staff making our drinks. We would definitely come back again!

The place to go for cocktails. The best environment, service and atmosphere. I will visit time and time again!

Had such a fun evening for my 30th birthday here. We hired the Function room area and it worked brilliantly for us. The staff were incredibly friendly, hard working and nothing was too much trouble. The cocktails here are lovely and the music was fantastic. Highly recommend.

Whether visiting during the day or night On the Rocks has a great vibe. The cocktails are well made, the music is on point and the staff are very friendly too. Wednesday night is Karaoke night which is a particular favourite of mine, can't beat a little shouting to a song or two. If you haven't been, I would strongly recommend giving it a try, although beware, one visit is never enough.......

What a fabulous place, we played games , ordered a Chinese from Riverside was lovely and stayed there all night drinking, great night , very chilled night , great idea to take own food , brilliant, will definitely be back

Lovely cocktails unfortunately met at the entrance by two unenthusiastic staff. Arms folded and one vaping. We were a group of 7 and left to find our own table and then having to go to the bar to order our cocktails. We did however enjoy our cocktails.

Fantastic place for drinks with friends in Cheddar. Enjoyed a lovely pina colada and coconut mojito.

Rude bar staff and the fastest £8.00 Mojito I've ever seen made. It tasted exactly like I imagined it would awful. I took it back to be told it was ok. I've never seen a Mojito made in under 2 mins - this took 30 seconds. I'm sure this is a nice bar - just don't go there for a cocktail 🍸, they haven't a clue.

It was a bit wet when we were there. Cocktails a bit expensive but you are in the centre of Cheddar

What a perfect little terrace and bar.. 1st timer and would defo return . Felt like I was abroad .

No food but amazing cocktails! And atmosphere is awesome as well.. i Even if i did get stranges looks for dancing from the other patrons. Haha.

Great drinks, can bring in your own food to enjoy so thats a bonus:))

Me, my partner and my friend went to on the rocks and didn’t realise it was over 21’s on Friday and Saturday after 7pm. Nothing been said on their website so a wasted journey.

I don’t know if On The Rocks does food, but I went in with my son on Saturday afternoon. My son had a cocktail and I had a coffee. The place had a good atmosphere even that early. We decided to stay in Cheddar and spontaneously booked the Cheddar Bridge campsite. We then went to the Bath Arms for a meal before returning to On The Rocks for a few drinks. This place has a great atmosphere and must be the place to be in sleepy Cheddar. I would thoroughly recommend and will definitely return to the area.

Superb service when we stopped for coffee. Hope to return for cocktails one day

Nice cocktails, clean place and friendly staff. Music is good too.

Super cocktails! Connor is the artiste..

Fabulous place, great vibe and good prices

Wow what a place . Amazing atmosphere and cheap beer. Right in the heart of cheddar and near everything!!

Staff were polite but my girlfriend had a severe allergic reaction to the dairy product used to make a pina colada. I've never been anywhere that serves pina coladas with dairy, and the menu didn't list any dairy products under the pina colada ingredients so of course I didn't think to question it. We were lucky that she noticed the difference in taste, because she only had one sip and still had diarrhea while we were camping. I asked the bartender what it was made with and she admitted it was dairy cream, not "coconut cream" as was stated on the menu. She said that there was a typo on the menu, that it was missing the word "and" between "coconut" and "cream" which I find really hard to believe. Typos usually have a wrong or missing letter, not a whole word. She offered us a free drink which was nice but it didn't compensate for the fact that my poor girlfriend couldn't enjoy the rest of her night or the following morning. As you can imagine, diarrhea while camping is an absolute nightmare. It sounded like the bartender was already aware of the menu issue once I brought it up, so I wonder why it hadn't been updated already?

What a lovely bar , very friendly staff , thanks KAT and all

Great new Cocktail bar. You can take your own food and eat while you have a nice Cocktail. Super Kebab house just a few doors away and a Chinese Takeaway too.

Love it up there all very helpful

We popped in here for a drink after our meal nearby. It was very bright and loud 'ish' in a very closed Cheddar that evening, we were like months to the flame. I remember this place when it was a run down old pub, it's certainly changed for the better. It's got a Carribbean vibe to it now, palm trees and flamingos all over the place, but what struck us most was the reggae music playing...I say reggae, it was reggae versions of very popular pop and rock music, (e.g. 'Wish You Were Here' by Pink Floyd 😳). The weird thing was that it kinda works and I downloaded the track soon after 😁 There's a nice selection of drinks on tap, but not particularly cheap. Would definitely visit again when back in Cheddar 👍

Great place to drink and be social with friends, no dogs allowed inside but welcome in the outside area.....did find the music from the external speakers a little loud for conversation.

On The Rocks is a fantastic spot for a lively night out in Cheddar. The pub has a lively and inviting atmosphere, with a great range of drinks on offer. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and are always happy to recommend a drink that suits your tastes. One of the standout features of On The Rocks is the impressive range of cocktails on offer. The bartenders are skilled and creative, and the drinks are always beautifully presented. They also have a great selection of beers, ciders, and wines, making it the perfect spot for any drink lover. The bar also has a great outdoor area, which is perfect for enjoying a drink on a sunny day or a mild evening charming ambiance. Overall, On The Rocks is a great spot for a fun and lively night out. The great drinks selection, friendly staff, and inviting atmosphere make it a must-visit spot in Cheddar.

Amazing cocktail bar with great service and lovely staff. The young floor worker was very polite and helpful. Would definitely recommend to anyone in, or visiting Cheddar.

Poor service. Door man was lovely but once inside service was slow and manager was arrogant with disinterest in anyone other than regulars/favourites. Went down the road to Cabra with live music and super friendly staff. Give on the rocks a miss and head to Cabra

What a fabulous find this cocktail bar is. Popped in for one and stayed for hours!! Superb decor, friendly staff and fantastic atmosphere. Highly recommend it.

Great range of cocktails, fun atmosphere, reasonably priced.

Popped in by chance and ended up staying hours and coming back everyday of my stay in cheddar. The owner was very friendly, helpful and made this place a real gem . The atmosphere, music was great and everyone seemed very friendly. Centrally positioned and definitely worth a night or three .

Great place for a quick drink. They also have karaoke and atmosphere is nice.

Fantastic cocktail bar. Friendly staff. Incredible decor. And amazing cocktails!

Great afternoon especially Connor who served us and was great fun 👍🏻

Great afternoon. Connor is an asset to this cocktail bar. He was a right laugh and gave some great cocktail recommendations. He got involved in our silly humour and took all the banter bless him. Give that boy a raise banana man

Myself and 5 friends had a very enjoyable afternoon in On the Rocks. Amazing cocktails and shots. Connor who served us was brilliant, we loved him!

Went on a karaoke night had the best time. Staff were all really friendly and all took time to talk with us

Really loved this place when it opened. Sadly seems to be going downhill, think it is spoilt by lots of under age groups when there is a policy of over21's later in the evening. Also not my idea of fun to smell fish and chips( bring your own food policy) when enjoying a cocktail.

Had a fantastic night at On The Rocks for a friends birthday. We hired the karaoke room and were really well looked after by Connor and the team. Great bar , great staff , great night. Thank you x

Lovely place, cocktails and premium drinks. Perhaps a bit pretentious. Family friendly before 7pm then adult only. Not much on offer in cheddar but loads to do at this venue including karaoke.

What a fantastic place , we had a fabulous night . Drinks and staff were amazing we hired the karaoke room which was great , We were allowed to order some food to be delivered. A special thank you to both Jamie and Connor who kept checking in on us ensuring we were having a great night and kept the drinks following . Thank you guys we will be back I’m sure !

You're allowed to bring in your own food! This is great as we wanted to eat some of the cheesy goodness from all over the area. Pints are poured nicely and the cocktails are made with attention. The atmosphere is female friendly, and local pub goers are also just as welcoming👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Loving the indoor decor, especially the reused/reclaimed items!

awesome place, love the atmosphere on the weekend. love grabbing tuckers and coming up for a nice pint. good selection of ipas and cocktails. staff are lovely and helped out with every problem i had. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Lovely spot for a drink, excellent cocktails!

Excellent! Connor goes above and beyond to create a brilliant atmosphere and is an asset to the team. Brilliant cocktails and friendly vibes. Highly recommend coming here and added bonus they let you bring takeaway food in. Keep it up, Connor!

Amazing atmosphere, would definitely recommend

Stopped here for a Drink on bank holiday Monday. Really nice bar. Outdoor seating area is great. Barmaid was lovely and the cocktail she made was spot on. Will definitely be going back 👍

Super cute with a wide range of cocktails! Staff are lovely

brilliant staff, amazing karaoke every wednesday 🫶🏻i love it

Always struggled to find a good cocktail in Cheddar. The barman made my Mojito just as I asked really knew his stuff talked me through the rums and different ways he could pull it together. Awesome to find London quality cocktails in Somerset.

Amazing find right in the centre of Cheddar. Enormous selection of delicious cocktails and if it isn't on the menu the super friendly bartenders with will make it for you anyway! Modern fun interior and just a good vibe all around. If in Cheddar it is not to be missed!

Wonderful staff, great atmosphere! Absolutely looooove the cocktails, will return with more of my girls, and family 😍

Miserable and stuck up staff who seem to only care about making offensive and judgemental comments to customers. Expensive and mediocre cocktails, would suggest spending your money elsewhere. 1 star is generous.

Great beer, great music, great vibes.
