Queen Of Cups in Mendip

We went here for our anniversary and had the most amazing meal! All the dishes were absolutely delicious with so much flavour. Rounded off with an incredible dessert. The service was friendly and helpful. Could not recommend more. We will be back. Thank you!

This was the best meal out I have had in a long time! We had the Queens Platter, which was an incredible selection of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food. The restaurant feels inviting and had a relaxed atmosphere. The staff are friendly and attentive. I could not fault the evening at all. Thank you!

First time visit that came highly recommended . From the moment we stepped in and were warmly greeted by the friendly and helpful front of staff team to the most excellent meal prepared by award winning chef Ayesha Kalaji. We chose the Queen’s Feast giving an opportunity to experience a variety of foods which were each clearly explained to us. The food was just so delicious . We topped it off with the orange blossom dessert- beautifully presented Altogether a really enjoyable experience . Thank you Chef 😊

Sin duda recomendaría una visita aquí. Tuvimos una bienvenida encantadora, personal de camarero súper amable y servicial, y la comida es deliciosa. Sabores fascinantes, platos para compartir geniales. . que realmente debes visitar!

¡Buena comida! El servicio fue genial y la comida salió rápidamente. Tuvimos el festín de Queens que es muchos platos diferentes estilo mezze. No nos podía faltar nada, estaba muy sabroso y sin duda volveremos a visitar. Las típicas tapas / mezcla se sienten en el lugar y el personal realmente conoce su camino alrededor del menú. Un montón de opciones en cuanto a bebidas se refiere, pero un poco en el lado caro. ¡Qué gran combinación de sabores que realmente necesitan ser adoptados y disfrutados...

Just had the most amazing meal with a group of girlfriends . The food was fabulous (we all chose the Queens Feast where a medley of dishes is chosen for you) and the service was brilliant. Would definitely recommend this place and will definitely be back with my husband. We each spent £70 but that included a couple of bottles of wine, four cocktails and a gin & tonic, which I thought was a really good price to pay for everything we had. The feast itself is, I think, about £37 per person.

It’s another dull Monday in February but what a ray of sunshine in Glastonbury today with three other friends we dined at the Queen of Cups it was our first visit but certainly NOT our last we had the Queen’s Feast which was to die for the whole experience was utterly incredible thank you 🥰

Firstly the food was absolutely amazing, the dishes we tried were a perfect fusion of complimentary flavours and quality produce. The service however in my opinion could have been better. Part of our starter of crispy chicken skins arrived over 5 minutes before our bread and hummus and were cold before the latter 2 arrived. Also, at no point did anyone ask us if we required any additional drinks or check that we were happy with our meals. I'm not one to expect to be bothered by serving staff several times during a meal, but once would have been reassuring especially considering this is a top class gastro pub.

Wow! Had a birthday meal at The Queen of Cups in Glastonbury today and left feeling like a queen, myself! We were treated to the most wonderful range of dishes, excellent service and such attention to detail. They even accommodated the allergies in our party, leaving us absolutely confident and relaxed. Would thoroughly recommend.

I'm prone to hyperbole when I review places. Sometimes for comedic effect. However, without exaggeration, this is the best dining experience I have ever had. The service was incredibly attentive but relaxed. The atmosphere felt like fine dining without being stuffy - even with only 3 tables in at the beginning it felt like there was a buzz. I ordered falafel, hummus, bread, olives, potatoes and grilled cheese. Put simply, it was the best version of every one of those foods that I have ever had. The food was sophisticated but not pretentious - everything made sense. I could wax lyrical about the food for many more paragraphs but anything I say will pale in comparison to the man on the table behind me who sounded like he was about to cry every time he had a mouthful. He waited for the chef to be free so he could go and shake her hand. I, therefore, surmise that it isn't my individual taste that made this the best meal. Rather it is the experience of every person that comes to The Queen of Cups to have the best meal of their life. Also I am always going to patronise a place that puts the names of the serving and kitchen team on their menu. Wonderful touch. Exceptional menu flawlessly executed. I will be back with every person I care about.

Very appetizing food, normal portions (could be larger). The attention of 10, the friendly and smiling waitresses, and especially Isabel who speaks Spanish very well and was able to explain to us with great sympathy and willingness some dishes on the menu, thank you Isabel 🙏🏼

The service was great, loved the food and had a wonderful lunch. Being a vegetarian the food suited me perfectly I enjoyed sharing the different dishes with our table.

Absolutely divine food and service. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Glastonbury.

First visit of the year to Queen of Cups and it won't be the last. Best food in the area with great service. I could eat the grilled Nabulsi cheese with black lime honey all day every day.

Queen of Cups is one of the best restaurants I’ve been too. Excellent service, very knowledgeable, attentive and personable staff. Chef Ayesha comes up with the most incredible and flavourful dishes, I love that the menu changes wide pending on the seasons. Using locally sourced produce, it’s a real gem of a place. You must go and try the whole menu. It’s just fabulous!

The dishes are surprising and depend on what the chef has available, it's delicious but expensive

Great food (Michelin star) if that's your thing (note to self- read menu before trying a new restaurant). No complaints there although it wasn't to my taste. I get that solos aren't restaurants' favourite clients but really, Queen of Cups, we are in 2025. I booked a table about 1 hour before going there. If I book a table and we agree on a time, I *expect* a table. What I got was a lot of excuses, and the manager hastily clearing away his work space to set a table away from all the other diners, by the entrance door. On the one hand it was a big table all to myself, on the other hand I felt hastily shoved to one side as an after thought, not like a welcome guest. Instead of the happy lively ambiance in the main area, I got the work chatter of the serving staff. I felt very awkward. I explained this to the person taking my card and got more excuses. What I would have expected, if not a proper table, would be a conversation like this on the phone: "Sorry, we don't fully cater for solos but we'd be happy to serve you near the bar, would that be ok?" and then let me decide beforehand. I'd be reluctant to go again. If I need a solo supper in Glastonbury in future, I'll more likely go to the Crown pub. Quieter than George and Pilgrim and a little pricey, but it looked pretty civilised inside.

We’ve had so many delicious meals here… it’s a must stop when in Glastonbury. We mainly get the Queens Feast but I think my top favourite dish is the Nablusi cheese with black lime and honey.

First time here. Very busy service, but the hostess was friendly and very helpful with how to choose the dishes. Everything was exceptional

This was a very lucky find. The flavours of the food, the presentation and service are all first class. The two young ladies serving us tonight have been helpful friendly and a credit to the restaurant. If you are visiting or live in Glastonbury this is well worth a visit.

We had heard good things about this place, so we popped in for lunch on Sunday. The place was cold, and the staff were efficient but uninterested. We are veggies, and there was only one large plate—but we didn't think one quarter of a hispi cabbage was large. We also had two small plates, but we didn't think they went well together. We wont return

Food and service were perfect. Even moved our table up an hour after we asked. Three of us had the queens feast and left stuffed, couldn't fault anything. Special mention for the lamb though - wow!

Just returned from a superlative meal at the amazing Queen of Cups in Glastonbury. Such a warm welcoming bunch from front of house to an outstanding chef. Vegans well catered for in the fullest meaning of the phrase! Gorgeous Middle Eastern food with flair and adventure. 100% recommend diners make the trip to Queen of Cups. Oh, and if anyone has Neil Youngs mobile number, give him a call and tell him to swing by Cups to set him up proper for his just confirmed pyramid headline show at Glasto in June !!

Complete chaos in the kitchen, overworked stressed queen, zero support from the stuff - champagne was nice but it took ages to get ones flute refilled, food came in burnt and in odd order, disappointment

Beautiful food. We had the loveliest time. Thank you

This was some of the most delicious food I've ever eaten. It was a really amazing meal and lovely staff. We had the Queen's Feast for 2 - the chicken was so tasty! Thank you for a wonderful evening

Brilliant birthday meal - great food and service - a real treasure

The food speaks for itself, really impressive all around. Make sure to get the frena and some hummus!

My partner and I recently lunched here and it was simply outstanding on every level. Thoroughly recommend a pretty much Michelin star experience at a reasonable price, book if you can!

Full of flavor and variety, the food at Queen of Cups was absolutely amazing! The service and ambiance were wonderful as well.

Really great food- particularly labneh and the chicken. One of the best meals out I have had this year.

Mesmerizing. You know when you watch a magician, and you wonder how they did their act? The mystery and the wow? That's what eating here is like. Pure magic.

The food, which consisted of 5 consecutive plates, were superb. The blend of herbs and spices subtle, enhancing, not overpowering the main item. Possibly one of the best meals I have eaten in my 77 years. As an ex chef and still cooking I whole heartedly recommend The Queen of Cups, your card will read that you'll have a wonderful meal.

La mejor comida que hemos tenido. Lleno de sabor. Cada plato es diferente con nuevos sabores y texturas. Te deja emocionado esperando el próximo plato.

Llevaba un tiempo queriendo probar este restaurante, así que me agradó tener que comer en Glastonbury. Definitivamente no me decepcionó; lo bueno fue increíble. Sólo necesitábamos un almuerzo rápido (pero tuvimos la tentación de tener más! ), así que estoy planeando volver algún día para cenar.

Very good highly recommended will be back 5 *

Comida absolutamente brillante. Servicio brillante. Excelente relación calidad-precio. Uno de los lugares más brillantes de la zona.

This was by far one of the best meals I've had during my 3 weeks of travel. From start to finish, my entire meal was perfect! They will not disappoint.

Everything was delicious. Staff were lovely but there was some issue with booking or large groups, or both, so things were a bit slow - but they gave us free (exquisite) bread so we were happy! First waiter maybe didn't understand me (although same accent) so didn't quite get the drink I ordered but not a big deal. Overall excellent, I know my friend I was visiting with will go back.

Food felt overpriced. Very small portions. Good atmosphere

The food was absolutely incredible. Genuinely a meal I will remember for a long time. The chef has mastered how to seamlessly blend contrasting flavours in a beautiful way. The service unfortunately was not anywhere near as good as the food, and the thought of quality service to match the price, and quality of the food should be given more care.

Omg what a treat this was,great food lovely staff good atmosphere something a bit special xxx

Love this place! You must try the hogget, I've had it in the summer and in autumn and they changed it a little bit but each time it has been delicious. I'd feel confident to order anything on this menu and not be disappointed. We (2 people) shared 4 small plates plus bread and one large plate plus one bottle of wine and this was perfect.

One word :WOW🤩 When I say this is the best food you have ever tasted! that doesn’t even begin to cover it! And it doesn’t just stop there, the staff are all so friendly and welcoming, with their excellent knowledge on the menu to help guide you through the beautiful experience. If I could recommend one place for a last meal it would certainly be Queen of Cups. I’m not huge steak fan… however steak night at the Queen of Cups has completely changed me and I will most definitely be returning to this One of a kind restaurant. Thank you to all of the staff who made it amazing.

Very average food, the lamb was downright bad.

We visited yesterday (we were the group where a drink got spilt onto my cousin's wife's lap early on). Food was fantastic, and staff were knowledgeable and enthusiastic and looked after us well after the spillage drama! We look forward to coming back to try more of the menu soon! Lucky people of Glastonbury to have this restaurant.

We went for dinner on a Friday night and were not disappointed. We had the bread, olives and hummus, butternut squash, fish and squid and chicken kebabs. All were very delicious and we were stuffed by the end of it. Compliments to the chef.

Tuvimos una velada encantadora anoche, nuestra primera visita, comida fabulosa, muy sabrosa, la comida estaba muy bien presentada, en particular disfrutamos de la hogget, cremas y el sorbete de damson y lavanda. Teníamos dos platos pequeños, dos platos grandes y dos postres junto con cuatro pintas, yo tenía el Queen of Cups IPA que era muy sabroso. La camarera era eficiente pero amable. Bill llegó a £ 95 que pensé que era un gran valor para la calidad que teníamos.

Una fantástica experiencia gastronómica de principio a fin que no podemos reprochar. Increíbles platos compartidos que se presentaban maravillosamente y tenían intrincados sabores y texturas. Todo el equipo fue amable, bien informado y atento sin ser dominante. Hemos encontrado nuestro nuevo restaurante favorito.

Staff were lovely the food was delicious. Taste and quality of the food was amazing. There was 8 of us and we ordered the queen's feast for 8 people. Again no issues all very happy with the food it. Only slight critique was more bread needed. We were given so many lovely dips and there just wasn't enough bread to dip ratio. Definitely be back to try some of the other dishes! Thank you for a delicious lunch and another great thing is the restaurant is dog friendly!

We were quite lucky to get a take without a reservation. The place was packed and everyone who entered after us was turned away. The food was tasty and the presentation lovely. We go the hummus, the charred bread, the falafel, and the mussels. Everything was delicious. Just the falafel was a bit salty.

Wednesday evening, over half full making for a good atmosphere in nice surroundings. Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was top notch. Well worth a visit and I will definitely go back.

Couldn't have been better. Three of us shared a number of the small dishes and it was a perfect quantity, leaving just enough room for dessert which was spectacular. Even the cider we had for dinner, which was a Somerset cider made locally was wonderful. Thank you very much. Not that bad

Our visit to The Queen of Cups in Glastonbury was an exceptional experience. The food was nothing short of outstanding, offering a vibrant array of flavours that truly delighted the palate. Every dish was a feast for the eyes, with colourful presentations that made the dining experience even more enjoyable. The attention to detail in the presentation was remarkable, and the staff were incredibly attentive and helpful, enhancing the overall atmosphere. They made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. For a Michelin-star restaurant, we were pleasantly surprised by how reasonably priced everything was. It’s rare to find such high-quality dining at such a fair price. All in all, an amazing experience we would highly recommend to anyone visiting Glastonbury!

Absolutely fantastic food - would visit again.

What a find - such wonderful, friendly service and the food was outstanding. The two of us lunching today agreed the frena bread was the best we’ve ever tasted. So springy, fluffy and light inside with a beautifully crispy, salty, scorched exterior - it was glorious! Perfect for dipping in the silken hummus dish we ordered with it. And the lavabread falafel was a revelation. Would recommend a hundred times over 👌

I came for a solo meal and was worried I’d feel out of place but the staff made me feel really welcome and special. Attentive and helpful. I had a fantastic evening. The food was spectacular and I particularly loved the vine wrapped kofta. I will be coming back on my next trip

We had a wonderful meal here and will definitely be coming back with family again in future. Excellent table service from the young man working there and the food was fantastic.

The restaurant is located a short easy walk from the town centre. It does not appear to have its own car park, however there is ample parking close by. I would not say it is disabled friendly as there are steps both outside and within the interior. There is a small reasonably stocked bar and a good wine list. Inside is small but not too cramped, indoor and outdoor seating is available. It appears clean, reasonably decorated and well looked after. We could in no way fault the service we received, the young lady being polite, friendly, professional and well presented. She is a credit to both the restaurant and herself. It is not often you receive service as good as this from all of the staff. The food was not what I expected, with flavours, textures and combinations I would never have thought about. It was however nicely cooked, well presented and really really tasty. It caters exceptionally well for vegetarian or vegan customers. We had no issues with the food at all. As for value for money, possibly a little expensive, but not bad for the quality of food. Coming in at a little over £180 for four people, including wine, drinks and an optional tip. Give it a try, its different. We would quite happily eat hear again. Well done to all at the Queen of Cups.

What a revelation!! Mezze has never tasted better!! Every dish full of exciting and surprising flavours, different with every mouthful!! The staff are lovely! friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and engaging. What a wonderful place to eat!!

Lovely friendly restaurant. Dog lovers but also dog free area. Food delicious and different. Remember to order a salad ! We always forget and regret it. Hogget fabulous but very rich so pace yourselves! Flatbreads stand out but again pace yourselves - so tempting to order another and another and ……

Food was outstandingly delicious. Prices were surprisingly reasonable. Would certainly return.

Really nice varity of food choices but a long wait! Food came in dribs n drabs wouldve expected it all together. Waiter was a bit rude but the waitress was wonderful. Would highly reccomend to try for your own experience :)

We were lucky enough to be gifted a voucher for our special celebratory meal last night. The food is exceptional, stunning presentation, an array of colours and flavours and not out the way in price. Waiting times are quite long, as was very busy. But a nice atmosphere. The only thing we were a bit disappointed with, was we particularly booked last night being the 'steak night' and were so looking forward to our steak. There was not 1 steak on the menu! Well there was one, but it was crossed out, and we'd brought our table forward an hour to 6.30pm so couldn't work out how they could possibly run out that early and only have 1 option on the menu, as we'd seen an example steak menu online that had a choice of 3.... Luckily we were pleased with the other menu. Inside, the restaurant is nothing special as still looks like the Hawthorns tbh, how I remember it from before. A lovely dining experience however and will definately go again.

Visited Queen Of Cups tonight with my Husband for his birthday gift! We had the Queens Feast, absolutely beautiful dishes, a lovely atmosphere and great staff! A personal shout out to Cody, he went above and beyond from the moment we got there to enhance our experience. Would highly recommend!

Me and my girlfriend (and our two dogs) visited Queen of Cups last week for my birthday, and it was an incredible experience. The staff were brilliant as was the food, but especially our server, Charlie/Charlotte, who was so, so helpful. We were total novices to the style of menu and the food, and she happily gave us her recommendations (which were delicious) and didn't make us feel silly for asking questions. As another lovely touch to the evening, they even put a candle in my desert and sang me happy birthday. The food was unlike anything we've ever had before, as was the service, and we hope to be back again in future when we're back in Glastonbury.

A yong guy that was Barman didn’t allow me and my sister to enter. He didn’t give an explanation he just didn’t allow us to sit there and have the service. Was the rudest thing and place ever. Don’t recommend this place

Levantine dreams are made of this. Mouth-watering plates of tantalising flavours, from fat and juicy olives to piquant pickles and creamy whipped Feta. The Hogget is tender and tasty, the felafels fabulous, the pita perfection itself. Little pops of spice, smokiness, and sustenance came on every single plate, served up by knowledgeable Issey, first cooked and presented with love from Ayesha Kalaji, her middle-eastern passion shining through. Just go! Thank me later...

Fabulous food, served by friendly lovely people! Absolutely everything tasted fresh and was made by people who care about quality. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant.

Totally delicious, amazing food, and wonderful service from Issey and the team. I could eat the food here all day, every day, absolutely divine thank you.

I consulted Google reviews in advance and made reservations online, so I could dine in smoothly. The food is delicious, with a special aroma, and the decoration is beautiful. I like the smiles of the service staff, they are very kind!

Such amazing food- we ordered most of the menu and it was all divine. Great choice for vegetarians and vegans too. Phenomenal- would 100% recommend!

Always the best, Middle Eastern dishes with a modern twist, made with local produce, could not beat it! Ayesha and her team know what they are doing! Her waiting staff is ever so lovely and will definitely come back again and again.

Do not go there if disabled. They treat you with contempt. And a waiter assaulted my partner. They act like they are a Michelin star restaurant when it's just an over priced café with a bar.

Have to say, the service really didn’t do its job with me. I wanted to get a quickly some food, any food. Arrived to more or less empty restaurant at 6 pm, was told restaurant is fully booked. I could sit outside, where tables were free, but I wouldn’t be server any food, only drink, as everyone arrives in the next 45 minutes… 45 minutes… I’d have eaten and be gone by than. No trial whatsoever to find even an appetizer, cold food that must be ready and make a happy customer. No effort, no try. Sorry but I guess I’m used to different client service. This was for me very disappointing experience, without the experience.

Exceptional food, very interesting flavours, creative and varied menu. Friendly and attentive service made it a great evening out. Very much lived up to the high expectations we had!

Right, let me cut to the chase if you are thinking of somewhere nice to eat in the area, you will not be disappointed here! When it comes to flavors, textures and presentation , Queen of Cups js THE go to spot! Now if you want my complete and honest review continue reading… as a self confessed foodie, I am a stickler for the details and I had been wanting to come here some some time since I saw it on the Michelin Bib Gormand List. On top of all that it was my birthday today so I had great expectations going in. It was already busy when we entered and the staff seemed to be a little pressed from the get go, however they were quick to seat us to our table which we had reserved online. There seemed to be some confusion on the whereabouts of the wine list but soon enough we were situated and got our order in. Upon recommendation we ordered the Pinot Nior, and I selected the Labneh, baba ganoush, market fish and hogget and the potatoes on the side. Unfortunately, the wine was a huge let down, it was thin and acidic in flavor. It really put us off at the start. Following that the pita was fired much earlier than the dips it was supposed to be served with which meant it got cold around the edges and the bread was hard by the time it was served with the baba and Labneh. By this point I wondered if I made the right decision to come here…that was until I took my first bite. I kid you not my eyes rolled back and I was shocked, the flavor profile was beautifully complex. The intensely Smokey ganoush was contrasted with sweet fresh pomegranates and sharp picked onions. And the labneh was rich and creamy beyond belief. The pita it self was delightfully seasoned if only it was hot upon arrival. Following that the mains came and we switched the wine to beers which the waitress graciously agreed to. When you thought it wasn’t going to get better the mains brought all new spices and flavors which altered the senses and delivered a true culinary experience. I was impressed to say the least. It was busy, but I really wish we could get seen to a little quicker between dishes, it would have really smoothed over the whole thing more. We ended with the panacotta and lemon ginger honey sorbet. This was the only dish I remembered to capture since I was more distracted by the flavors and forgot to film. This desert was the absolute perfect way to cap the meal. The flavors were immensely rich and they came in later, first to had the sharp lemon then the rich honey and it was ended with the spice of the ginger and the taste of bay in your mouth, a truly incredible barrage of tastes. You have to try the pancotta aswell, it is again a symphony in the mouth . Overall I would recommend this to anyone looking for a fantastic meal in Somerset, understand this is a pub setting and so is the atmosphere. Bring a friend, bring a parent it is worth the visit indeed.

Formally a hotel. It's a packed restaurant. You need to book. But they do their best to accommodate. Great to chat to others as it's a relaxed place.

Best food i have ever had! The attention to detail, they mix of flavours and that orange blossom dessert, just yum!

This place is incredible! All of the dishes we tried were amazing, and the gluten free bread!!! We had to double check twice that it was gluten free, because it was so good! We are desperate to go back and are planning a trip to Glastonbury just so we can go here again!

What a gem. Reviewed on Google before visiting and oh so not disappointed! How food is meant to be eaten, just take the plunge and enjoy a beautifully crafted set of plates, and the wine selection made the whole experience a delight. You must go!

Let me start by saying that I don't normally leave reviews; this is an extraordinary case. In my opinion the food wasn't that great but the reason for the review is: 1) I order a beer, I ask for it to be English (seeing so many Spanish beers), they bring me a Japanese Ashai (which cost double the price of an English bitter) despite the lady at the counter told her colleague that I had asked for an English beer, I asked why and they replied that it was the best lager they had; after 3 times trying to explain that I wanted an English beer I give up. Obviously I paid for the Ashai 2) An inedible pita arrived, it tasted so much like smoke; I have to say that they recognized it and changed it. 3) damn at home I saw the receipt and it wasn't the tax receipt, I don't know how the taxation of English restaurants is but I'll point it out

I really enjoyed the main courses we were served. The atmosphere and the food itself was fantastic but it was only after I had the sweet that I realized just what an amazing restaurant this was. I had the Jasmine and mastic panna cotta, fermented strawberries, pistachio, honey. In all my years I've never eaten a pudding as brilliant as this. It was utterly bloody sensational!

Lovely restaurant serving delicious middle Eastern food. Winner of "Best Trencherman's Newcomer well deserved.

Perfect food and wonderful team. They made our special engagement day feel even more exciting. On top of that the food was incredible. Thank you again, it meant the world to us.

The food , as always, was amazing. Incrediable. However - I was really upset about the standard of service - I wrote a review about 3 months ago - I live in Glastonbury and it is absolutely my favourite restaurant - and I remarked on how good the service was. And it was, until last night. Now I come to think of it, when I went in to book I was served by a young man surly of nature and dismissive of manner. Last night he was also in attendance, along with a young woman of an equally unhelpful attitude. They were not busy, but neither of the two made any effort to acknowledge us. We were finally shown to our table and left for a while. No asking if we would like a drink . The menus arrived and he disappeared again. His sidekick carried on folding her napkins and ignoring any customers. Waiter finally reappeared and asked if we would like any drinks. Now things got really interesting! Friend - Do you have any real Ale as it says in this guide you do? Waiter - Yes, we had some last week. Friend - And now? Waiter - No, it was here last week. Now we have Golden Ale. Friend - Is that in a cask? Waiter - It’s Golden Ale. This conversation wore on with the repetition of the phrase ‘ It was here last week’ becoming most tedious. Anyway, we ordered some simple drinks - and food. When I have been before, staff have been very enthusiastic to explain unusual ingredients and give recommendations- some foods are very unusual and also it’s nice to hear about what is particularly good etc etc. Nope, off he sauntered and we waited. Food came quite quickly- drinks did not. I had to ask - they were being ‘made’ - no, not exotic cocktails, two halves of lager. Food was fabulous, as always. We ordered dessert - and waited. And waited. Finally,Madame Napkin who had been had been prised away from her task and her idling behind the bar, sauntered over in her beachwear, and ungraciously served us with a scowl. She then went to find cutlery, which she just handed to us hand to hand which just felt wrong. By this point we had been in the restaurant for almost two hours. Much of this had been waiting for the dynamic duo to take our orders. I would have spoken to the manager at the time, but by the time we left it was busy but we were very, very disappointed by the standard. There was another waitress, smartly dressed, who was lovely, and perhaps she coukd teach the other two how you treat customers and appropriate dress - keep beachwear for the beach, please!

The food was satisfactory but could have been better. The duck was dry and very salty! Service was quite slow, with the servers disappearing abruptly. In terms of cost, we opted for the Queen's Feast. It turns out you pay more than you would if you had chosen different dishes separately. Additionally, you pay per person, but you must share all the courses. In summary, the restaurant earns a decent profit from its menu selection and the client pays more by eating less.

QofC is more than just a restaurant; it’s a dining experience. It promises a memorable meal on every visit, whether you’re a local or a visitor to Glastonbury. The menu is a testament to culinary creativity and excellence. Each dish is crafted with the freshest, locally sourced ingredients, showcasing a delightful fusion of middle-eastern flavours. We generally opt for the ‘queens feast’ set menu option which gives a taste of many dishes from the menu that perfectly complement each other. The dishes just keep coming! The service at QofC is impeccable. The staff are attentive and knowledgeable. The head chef, Ayesha, is an absolute genius in the kitchen and is genuinely passionate about the food she serves. The prices are also exceedingly reasonable! QofC is absolutely not to be missed - 5 stars without a doubt!

I have been to many gourmet restaurants in my life but rarely have I found a harmony of flavours of this level. Dishes presented with great talent and passion. Ingredients of excellent quality. The restaurant a little paradise in the heart of charming Glastonbury

Highly recommended. Queen of Cups Feast helped us to explore the exceptional taste of the menu. Visual experience of each dish was outstanding and well considered. Colours play a significant part and tease on what to expect. Service staff were polite, friendly & knowledgeable.

The meal was terrible and other dinners also complained that the duck confit was desiccated and very tough the small plates were ok we would not eat there again

My partner and I arrived on Sunday looking for a wonderful dining experience unfortunately, it was the first time in our 12 year relationship , that we had to send the food back . We ordered the prawns but the sauce was so salty and the cheese combination was awful . The fried dish was anything but fried and completely tasteless . The confit duck was very dry and salty and the accompanying sauce was disgusting . We were so disappointed!

Had the most amazing food here!!! Loved every bit of it and the wine! Very nice service and fantastic price! Perfect quality of the ingredients!

Nice place but did not live up to the good reputation. We took the chefs select and expected a real feast. The two hummus and the glutenfree bred was very good. The kofta to hard, also the halloumilike cheese. The duck was a bit on the dry side and the potato was too.

Absolutely superb. Cannot fault the place at all. Great food, friendly & attentive staff.

This restaurant & the very talented chef/patron Aeysha Kalajai was the reason for us choosing to visit & stay in Glastonbury. They offer many lovely dishes, designed for sharing. We ordered far too much food (we were going to also order a large plate of her cauliflower dish but the waiter wisely suggested we hold back!!) We started with pickled turnip, Iraqi pita & sublime hummus with date confiture & olive oil. Hubby had an amazing apricot harissa hoggett ragu with his share. Then labneh with peach, confit garlic & za'atar breadcrumbs. Had fried potatoes with confit garlic, bergamot & za'atar aioli. Star dish of the night was Grilled Nabulsi cheese with Persian black honey (similar to Halloumi in texture.) We also had vine leaf wrapped beef koftas. Couldn't resist trying the puds either, despite being pretty full! I had an orange blossom mahalibia (a smooth rice pudding) with apricots. Hubby had the Sorbet special of the day i.e. watermelon, cucumber & mint. Had the pleasure of meeting Ayeshia afterwards & told her that we'd try to get back soon

Love going here great good, atmosphere, service everything

Passionate, inventive, deliriously good food served unpretentiously and personably. The two wines I had were profoundly unexceptional however but still - in a sea of provincial mediocrity one has no right to expect to encounter food as confident in its singularity as this.

Lovely Middle Eastern style food with a good selection of vegetarian options. Atmosphere was really nice too. Definitely a hidden gem

AMAZING PLACE WILL BE GOING AGAIN . FOOD AMAZING AND STAFF
