Seven Stars in Bath and North East Somerset

Friendly staff. A good selection of drinks. Puts on regular entertainment.

Being only 37 of them, it is not the most common name for a pub. The sign of the Seven Stars in the star cluster of the Pleiades was considered a bunch of grapes in a Dionysian/Bacchic world view, therefore a suitable tavern sign. Some parts of this pub are very historic, as indicated by the bricked up window and heavily foot-worn doorstep. The window tax, based on the number of windows in a house, was introduced in 1696. A tax based on the number of windows in a building. Many windows were bricked up in those days to mitigate this levy. Very much 'the village pub' this reviewer has seen many administrations (not all of them successful) come and go in the years he has been a patron, fortunately the current tenants are more focused on customer satisfaction and this is apparent. Accommodation, drink, and provender are provided at above average norms. On the Cask Marque Ale Trail and the Sunday Roast is a Reservation Recommended Event. Two, well found en-suite bedrooms, constantly in demand booking well in advance is advised. Not found all that frequently is the Petanque piste. Members of this game meet regularly. The car park is clearly marked but must be approached with care, it's within the village traffic bottle neck A huge bedouin style tent covers half the beer garden, p.enty of cover for those who have Al fresco requirements.

Had a lush meal recently and Helen and the team were really accommodating. Great atmosphere and a fair price too. Thanks all, highly recommend for a nice country local.

Lovely food, friendly staff, chilled atmosphere

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Helen has worked hard to restore it to a proper community pub, with quiz nights, meat raffles, fundraising days and music every weekend ranging from live bands to DJ’s to karaoke to open mic nights.

The seven stars has a wonderful warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are very helpful and full of smiles. The Sunday roasts are definitely the best around and I have loved the live music. Thank you

Came here for Sunday lunch with my Dad. Fantastic roast dinner. Very generous portions. Staff were really attentive. Lovely atmosphere. Will definitely come again.

Always has great events happening, well organised, lovely staff and great atmosphere. Yet to try the food but the roasts look delicious! Great range of bands and music entertainment every weekend.

This is a lovely pub. Always a friendly atmosphere, heating or fire on. Food is good and reasonably priced, good mid-week deals too. And super dog friendly!

Lovely local pub, good food, can watch sports here and play darts

First visit this weekend. Lovely old fashioned country village pub. Warm and welcoming. Nice garden out the back with cover. Will definitely be going back.

Preciosa comida, buena porción, al rojo vivo y muy sabroso. Un montón para elegir en el menú. Buena relación calidad-precio y muy bienvenido sin duda recomiendo.

Lovely people, lovely place, lovely potatoes! Thank you :)

Great food, great staff and an amazing atmosphere. What more can you want

Booked a table in the Seven Stars for a Sunday roast I wasn’t disappointed fantastic beef, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, parsnips veggies and gravey . I had cauliflower cheese as an extra. Generous portions and absolutely delicious. Excellent friendly service. Roast £14.50 with large cauliflower cheese for £3.99. Drinks on top excellent value would thoroughly recommend

Had the most delicious roast dinner at the Seven Stars today. I went for the beef and it was cooked so beautifully. From the presentation, to the flavour I would I highly recommend it.

Fantastic place excellent food made to feel very welcome

The heart of every village is its local pub and the Seven Stars is certainly that! Helen really knows how to look after everyone from regulars to new customers all are made to feel welcome. The food is fantastic and the Sunday lunch is well worth a visit alone. The Pork was superb! Great range of drinks. Great service. Visiting here is a real pleasure.

Can’t fault Helen and the team at all!! Incredible food, all staff are friendly, helpful and so lovely. Highly recommend a visit to spend time with the bubbly members of the Severn stars.

Sunday lunch, at the Seven Stars, Timsbury, was welcomed today after our busy morning of Sunday football! The service was wonderful, nothing can beat the warmth of the cheerful waitress and landlady who made everything feel comfortable and perfect, probably because of the attention to detail, friendliness and punctuality. Most importantly the food was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection to meet our preferences. Would highly recommend a visit here to this delightful village pub, perfect for locals and welcoming to all. Perfectly pleasant and not pretentious. My ideal. Thanks Helen for making a home from home atmosphere, truly appreciated 😊

Nice place to stop for a pint after a dog walk

I'm told that the Sunday lunch is great. The food we were given on Friday was awful - the only reason I didn't complain was that it would have spoiled the night with friends. "fish & chips" lord alone knows what the fish was supposed to be - two bits of stale batter stained with something grey. The chips were probably recycled for the chip shop's lunchtime bin. Dreadful.

Great cosy little pub with delicious food and great atmosphere.

Fantastic food accompanied with an amazing service with a smile and nothing is too much aptitude. Relax atmosphere and free parking at the back. Perfect for a pit stop and recharge for a good price and value for money.

A really great pub good food best beers lovely staff and a great atmosphere

My lovely local Excellent pub 🤩

Had a lovely visit in June to the Seven Stars to coincide with a weekend of watching Glastonbury in the garden with my pals, and popped in here once or twice. Had a fantastic craic with the locals, and have been a few times now so getting to know their Somerset cheek, made friends with some American tourists, they had "Karaoke Kaye" on one night and other nights other themed events & the place can rock one minute, then just have a fun quiz another night! I saw a new pool table area that was fun and lost badly at a game of pool, (not that I was stroppy, I mean I lost badly at pool!) and food, although i didn't have any, got my nostrils twitching whenever it came out the kitchen so I consoled myself with more cider, from a great range of beers, wines and spirits and some great drink deals too! It's my most favourite pub in Timsbury!

Beautiful Pub, lovely food, lovely staff and great atmosphere also a big garden for the nicer days!

Great service and atmosphere. Always feel welcome.

A lovely country pub. Tasty food and amazing staff. Family friendly 😁😁

Lovely pub, great atmosphere welcoming and friendly staff. Great, if you just want to pop in for a pint or stay for a meal would thoroughly recommend also have a wonderful garden

Great pub. Lovely garden and welcoming staff :-)

Had a fabulous Sunday pint, and snack with the boy here. Friendly and efficient service, spot on! 👌

I have visited with a client recently - we had a fabulous roast dinner - friendly, prompt service during the day - also visited in the evening with another client - welcoming staff - included us in the entertainment - thank you to all of you Xx 😀

Awesome local village pub great atmosphere great food great service very welcoming dog friendly had a amazing afternoon there with a guest singer can’t wait to go back if I could give six stars I would

Cracking example of a good old fashioned country boozer! I don’t get to visit as often as I’d like, but when I do it’s always service with a smile. They have a decent selection of ale which is a massive plus for me! The covered section of the garden is great for those warm, rainy summer nights. Pubs like this need to be kept alive!

Lovely country pub, staff and so lovely the food is amazing. We just had the steak and mushroom sandwich and chicken wrap absolutely brilliant. Highly recommend

Great village pub,friendly staff

Great service, very friendly staff👌

Lovely pub, great atmosphere and friendly accommodating staff

Amazing friendly staff lovely village ambiance

Really friendly local pub, friendly staff and a great atmosphere.

Fantastic pub with a great choice of drinks and food. As good as the food is the staff are even better, incredibly friendly , everything you could hope for from a village pub. Loved it.

Nice English pub. Food is not of high quality. At least what we ate, but there is a nice garden to drink a good ale. Inside cozy corners and a pool table.

if you wanna get woken up in the morning(7am!) by a delivery truck and also kept awake at night by the noise from the pub, then this hotel is perfect for you! Also, if you don't wanna receive an invoice for your stay and don't wanna receive any phone calls back about the matter... then this is also the place for you. If you wanna be lied to by the staff that the manager isn't around, is on holiday, and then have the phones put down on you... then yeah, you guessed it... this hotel is also for you!!🤣🤣🤣 Customer service.... what customer service 🙄

Thank you Helen for looking after us ,you made us very welcomed and lovely food .sorry we didn't say good bye thanked you for looking after us .

Server didn't have a clue on what he was bringing out. He seemed very lost with no where to go

Good local pub with nice staff and friendly locals, nice.

On the Sunday morning as we were leaving Timsbury we really wanted a Sunday roast, so we came here to Seven Stars. A great and cosy pub with plenty of places to sit, we really enjoyed our time here. I believe it was Helen (from the sign outside!) who showed us around and served us, she was a great host and very welcoming. The Sunday roast tasted lovely and had a great variety.

Great location. Great beer garden

Luch old pub lovely staff amazing atmosphere

Called ahead Incase we needed to book for Good Friday lunch and we didn’t need to. Food was ok, service was good and friendly. Nice space. Will go again.

Popped here for a drink on a Sunday lunchtime. It was packed! Beautiful proper British country pub with a large number of fans. From walkers popping in for a drink to families having Sunday lunch, the whole place was heaving. BOOK A TABLE IF YOU WANT FOOD!! Plenty of car parking, lovely location, nice walks and lovely staff. Didn't eat so can't comment on food (but will be returning) but the pub welcomes pets too so hugely popular. One downside: very loud live music on Sunday lunchtime (?) which might make conversation a challenge and bother people with sensitive ears. My nan would have struggled to put up with the sound level. Apart from that, definitely worth frequenting.

New owners as of 2023 have managed to absolutely nail the food offerings. The Sunday roasts come with a choice of small, medium and large, which is a great idea as not everyone always wants a massive meal. But it’s all great! Big yorkshire puds, gravy boats if you ask, perfectly cooked meat and veg, all washed down with a quality bitter! As of 2023 getting a solid and well deserved reputation for a music pub. You are doing a great job for Timsbury guys, keep it up! Also welcomes outdoorsy types, for example people riding bikes, dog walkers, walkers and even horses.(awesome!) A massive asset to Timsbury! Heart of the village.

Lovely place to be on a Saturday night with good ENTERTAINMENT and drinks Will go again

They have leakage problem very disappointed with the behavior of the staff

Food was disappointing. Two of us ordered garlic sourdough to come with lasagne (which was a tiny portion size). We both ended up with burnt toast with no butter or garlic. When we pointed this out we were told the garlic was in the bread mix and that they had no garlic butter. It was dry and didn't taste of garlic at all. We we weren't even offered any butter to go with the toast. For desert we ordered a cherry and coconut sundae. Only problem was that the ice cream was vanilla!

Lovely pub, clean and tidy, tasty food and attentive staff. Great pub atmosphere, cozy, just don't ask for a coffee.

A really nice homely pub. Friendly locals. Old and traditional. You might find the odd hobbit here.

New owners of only a few weeks, but they have done a great job. Food, service and atmosphere was very good. We had Xmas lunch and was excellent and good value.

Nice place with busy atmosphere and nice little snug with log fire. Let down by being massively understaffed and the one bar staff member being really unhappy about it. Also, beers were pricey.

Lively village pub, great welcome and service from the staff, large car park, really enjoyable place..

Great local pub, well worth a visit especially for the Thursday quiz night, highly recommend.

Nice pub environment, not too expensive! Amazing first night meal for our honeymoon

1st visit here , Welcoming & willing staff . Sunday roast and the cosy (snug) atmosphere was ideal for a wet & miserable Sunday. Thank you 😃

Came to do some work here This is warm cosy pub with a great community feel.. serves hot food and had 2 accommodation rooms for guests. Opens at 12pm not 9am as currently advertised lots of locals were in today... Dog friendly pub with very friendly staff... Exceptionally clean throughout and very tastefully decorated... It's got a quiet lounging area by the open fire 🔥🔥 ideal for them cold winter night.. Very large carpark with a Huge covered outdoor seating area. Nice atmosphere during my time on site Also shows live sports.

Let's be honest: this is a drinkers pub. DON'T go there for a meal. We went on the basis of having been before & had a lovely meal: oh how things have changed! We were greeted as if nothing was amiss; it turned out there was no chef ( the young man behind the bar was stepping in as fast as we could tell), a significant part of the menu (if you can call it that) wasn't available e.g. steak, desserts. And what did get served was mostly microwaved with items missing e.g. Yorkshire pudding, garden peas. When we admitted defeat we just asked if we could have a coffee: "Oh, we haven't got a coffee machine, sorry" was the response. Ever heard of a kettle & Nescafe? To be fair they discounted the Bill - but that in no way makes up for what was simply awful.

Had the pleasure of enjoying a Sunday roast at the Seven Stars in Timsbury. Roast's can sometimes be a bit hit or miss when dining out in a pub, but this experience was a giant HIT! What a stunning dinner, a very plentiful portion with lots of variety and everything on the plate was cooked to perfection. Four of us dined, all having roasts. Four very full bellies & very happy faces. The pub atmosphere was also excellent with kind, polite helpful staff, making the whole experience very enjoyable. Great selection of drinks available too, just a shame I was driving! Will be back very soon.....

This pub is fantastic from the things it’s been through recently, amazing beer garden, attentive and lovely staff. Amazing pub grub, all for a really affordable price. Amazing deals on the drinks. Bar staff have a good knowledge of beers and wines. All great sense of humour. Locals are some of the most pleasant and respectful people I’ve met. Landlord and his wife and incredibly inviting and have gone out their way for me many a times. You couldn’t ask for a better little town pub. As for the BnB rooms which are worth every penny, for a get away to countryside of Somerset, with Priston round the corner and many more walks close by. Often eventful with evening events such as open mic night, meat draw (raffle tickets to win meat!), karaoke, quiz night and live music when available.

What can I say. We booked a table on the website but when we turned up we were told we are not doing food - try up the road instead.

A welcome drink mid walk. Nice place

Lovely pub, with great staff. However, shame they run out of beer and wine and often don't have the kitchen open when it should be.

Great village pub with great atmosphere. The new food on the menu is excellent. I had the chicken burger and it was 👌👌👌- easily as good as restaurants in Bath!

Cracking little Pub, burger I had was cooked perfectly and went down nicely! Live music was entertaining with a great atmosphere, friendly staff and locals.

Nice little pub with a good selection of drinks, I've eaten there a few times and it's always been good pub food. The gardens nice too, especiall liked the tipi style covered area. Lots of parking too.. and if that's full you can park on the street also very easily

I don't often leave a bad review, but feel that I have to be honest.... As we arrived we were notified that there were "no steaks, no fish, no mushrooms and 1 or of the 4 pizzas was unavailable". So, with a limited menu we ordered 6 meals, 2 of them cheese and bacon burgers and our veggie ordered the halloumi fish and chips. One of the burger meals had crispy burgers! Crispy, what's that about? Isn't a burger supposed to be juicy? But what was worse was the veggie meal having a chicken nugget served amongst the sweet potato fries, suggesting that both are cooked in the same oil. Now that's a big NO, NO! I think it's fair to say that our first visit to the Seven Stars in Timsbury will also be our last. You've missed a trick guys, with there being no pubs serving food in Paulton, you should have a captive audience in our area. Here's hoping that things improve.

Worst meal out in a long time. Both are burger were burnt, bun was dry, complete rubbish. Daughter had a piece of chicken on her plate(vegetarian meal!). I was asked “ how was it” at the end, so I gave a polite but critical feedback and was told I was “entitled to my opinion” with no effort to make amends. Assume there main clientele are people from Timsbury who cannot drive, or afford a taxi to go elsewhere. Very disappointed.

A lovely country pub with plenty of room. There is a good size carpark at the back next to the beer garden. We had the Sunday roast . Portions were extremely generous but everything was well cooked. It was quite at the time we went but we understand it does get very busy so booking essential. I would definitely go back.

Very lovely pub, food was good, nice place for a pint

Lovely location and beautiful village and nice inside, the kitchen area is a bonus and well stocked however not a place I would recommend if you wanted to sleep. On 2 occasions now they have had live music or disco until 1am and after speaking with the landlord he told us they have live music licence until 2am. The website says tranquil and quiet but this is definitely not the case. It has the potential to be such an amazing B&B.

Been coming here for nearly a year . Lovely helpful friendly staff and hats off to Frank and co for trying really hard to make it a proper village pub .

Amazing food with fantastic service , very friendly staff .

What a lovely Pub. Staff & food excellent. We all had Sunday Roasts. Definitely recommend & we will be returning. Our group was 4 adults & 2 children 7 & 3 year olds.

So 6 of us visited here last night..beautiful restaurant..really lovely place,couldn’t believe how big it was. Very friendly staff and a nice vibe about the place. So the meals..the men had the Stilton and garlic mushrooms that had the smallest pieces of ciabatta I’ve ever seen.. Our mains..I had the steak which said with skin on chips..they were frozen skinny fries and I was really not impressed. Plus didn’t realise till I’d finished they hadn’t given us our onion rings! 2 people ordered chips as sides which never made it to the table. We decided on desserts but was told when went to order them that the kitchen shut at 9!! We were very disappointed..maybe we could’ve been told that? It was only about 9.20pm..I’ve never known a restaurant that doesn’t serve food wether savoury or desserts past 9pm. We probably won’t return because of that fact.

Nice little place with big attitude. Lovely

Proper Somerset pub, well patronised by local folk and local live music also. Would be 5 stars if you had some real ale to serve!

Cosy, great beer, friendly staff and very Christmasy. Roast was amazing today. So welcoming for my mum's 70th birthday. Thanks all.

Great pub jude is a great man , Charlie on the other hand needs some work

The kitchen area could have had more cutlery glasses for use and also hot running water to wash up, the kitchen area wasn't the cleanest also. The continental breakfast wasn't, toast and cereal doesn't constitute being continental, half a carton of orange juice for 4 guests is not adequate. There was also no coffee,no croissants or anything continental. The music /karaoke noise from the pub was so loud that we had to have to TV up really loud to hear it, the staff could have warned us that there was a function on and that there. Would be very loud music past midnight. We had booked a table in the restaurant prior to arrival, only to arrive and find out they had no chef and were not serving food... they should have informed us beforehand not on arrival. Checking out there was no one to be seen ,just put the room keys through the letter box, no communication to find out about the our stay, if there had been a problem, throughout the stay we wouldn't have known where to go or what to do after the pub had shut.

Lovely country pub please keep going

Friendly staff (2 stars) but truly awful Sunday roast. The food all looked and tasted pre-prepared or ready-made and reheated. Ok, maybe the peas were fresh, from frozen.

Staff have no idea what they are doing and food arrived late and not all together. Then we had to wait another 10 minutes for cutlery whilst our food was in-front of us.

Food was served almost instantly and portions where great 10/10

Rubbish Sunday roast, kids meal had more meat than the adult one. Half a carrot and 1 parsnip. Not worth the money and staff didn't have a clue what they were doing. Won't be eating here anytime soon.

Excellent Sunday roast, reasonably priced. Cask ales and a good selection of largers

Pleasant stay, friendly staff, would definitely go back if we ever found ourselves needing to stay in that area of the world again. Local Co-Op and Premier just a minute walk up the road. Clean and tidy room and standard tasty pub grub. You're staying in a side building connected to the pub which has two rooms and a little kitchenette, there was occasionally some noise from patrons hanging out the front, but it's a pub, it would be unreasonable to expect anything else.

Great pub and beer garden. Waited a bit for our food but the locals were friendly and fun.

Disappointing. Four of us stopped in for lunch yesterday (24 September). It wasn't busy at all when we arrived (about 2 pm). We ordered 2 x dirty fries, salad and a baguette. The food took so long to arrive and didn't all arrive together, even though we ordered at the same time. First meal came out 45 minutes after ordering, second after 50 minutes and the final two came out another 10 minutes after that. The food was tasty and it's a lovely pub, so it's such a shame that the poor service let it down.

Good place to visit and have a beer. Many to choose

Food was amazing and such friendly staff. Would visit again if I'm in the area
