The Brewers Arms in North Somerset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Me and the misses popped in after hearing lots of good comments about the pub. Food was fantastic, the staff couldn’t be been more accommodating. Would highly recommend this pub

My friends and i bought food and drink (8 of us) and spent probably over £50. After we finished eating/drinking we were kicked out as “this is a pub not a community centre” - bearing in mind there were only 4 other people in the pub at this time. It was only one staff member who was rude and unwelcoming- normally staff are quite friendly.

Nice place but rude staff. Very disappointed and dissatisfied. We were happily drinking and chatting and eating food and then got kicked out for no good reason!

A wee gem. Staff are so friendly and welcoming, and the pub itself is just beautiful in its atmosphere and setting. We came in for Sunday lunch. Absolutely delicious! Asked for a wee bit more gravy and was given a small ocean-going liner of it! Next time we're back this way, we will definitely pop in.

We haven't been in here for a few years because it had gone downhill. Popped in yesterday evening for a pint and discovered it had new owners. Had a totally different feeling to it. Warm and cosy, a buzz about the place... Staff were friendly, and a nice pint. Also discovered they had a visiting pizza truck outside every fortnight, so have to give that a try sometime. All good. Worth a visit if you, like us, avoided it in the past...

Hidden secret. Cracking pub set in amazing countryside. 🎵

Lovely food, great service, very thoughtful towards our young grandchildren, provided colouring books and pencils, highly recommend

This pub has recently been taken over and I cannot recommend it enough. The staff are excellent and the food is great. The current owners have put so much effort into making it back into a local pub, and it has worked. The owners son has taken over the kitchen as an apprentice and I can't wait to see what happens in the future. Well done everyone Ricky and the team, keep up the good work ❤️

came here bank holiday sunday, had an amazing roast dinner followed by a silent disco, much admit i wasnt sure about the silent disco at first but i had one of the most fun nights ive had in a long time, cant wait to return

Great local pub, with friendly staff and a lively atmosphere. Haven't tried the food yet but it looks amazing and smells even better! Would highly recommend the heated pork scratchings.Definitely worth a visit! :)

Lovely, cute village pub. Large beer garden which will be a great place to sit in the summer. Recently started doing food which is very tasty.

We were met by the manager of this fantastic pub. A very friendly welcome We had a roast beef dinner which was probably the best I've ever had. The food was hot and very tasty They couldn't do enough for us. They even served us after food was meant to be served Would recommend this pub 100%. Definitely visiting again as we have a seasonal pitch at bucklegrove . Well done brewers arms

Fabulous Sunday lunch today. Between us we had the beef, pork, gammon and vegan option. All excellent. Really tasty. Well done guys. Well definitely be back 😊

Our lovely local! The pub was recently taken over by new management and they’ve made what was already a sweet pub super cosy and welcoming. We recently hosted my partner’s 40th birthday there and the landlords couldn’t have been more accommodating. Our friends and family had a great night and all said how lucky we were to have such a gorgeous country pub on our doorstep!

Just walked down for a drink after checking opening times that said opened at 12 pm but it was closed yet again

We were a group of 6 & we went to watch the football. We only had drinks but the bar staff were awesome, the ambience was lovely & the spacious bar comfy & cosy with plenty of chairs & a log burner. V popular place; we had a great time. Locals friendly & welcoming! And dogs are allowed; which was the deciding factor for us.

Came across this little gem by accident through a road diversion, what a find, recently under new management who have great plans for the locals in terms of food offerings. Beautiful village pub, well presented, welcoming and comfortable for a cosy fireplace enjoyable and relaxing time.

A great pub,with great service,great food and a lovely setting.It is only spoiled by people vaping indoors,so if you are eating or just having a beer,you have to put up with clouds of stinking fruity smoke,this is obviously not good and spoils the pub and the evening..other than that it is a great place to eat and drink and we will return and would highly recommend the Brewers Arms. We’ve been back again a few times,it’s under new management now,but on Sunday evening we were in,and the vaping is still going on,hopefully the new management will put a stop to this…..watch this space

Great boozer in lovely location, extensive garden, good jukebox and crazy landlord… What more do you need…?

Nice pub great area would recommend

One of the best pubs I've been in a real homely place to be great staff especially martin 10 out of 10

Popped in for a cold beer on a hot sunny day. Nice country pub with friendly staff.

Terrible!! Our first and last time here, Apparently a new landlord called Martin, well it needs another one! My husband had to be calmed down, He Couldn’t stand up through drink, all over me and other females in the pub, a disgrace and reported to the brewery, ladies avoid please

New bar man pub looking good dog friendly order take away eat in live music on way yes yes can't wait welcome to the village Martin

Very friendly bar staff nice pub to !

A lovely hidden jem in Banwell,

One of the best local pubs in the south west, very warm and homely feeling with great beer and nice homemade fresh food!

Lovely pub, great atmosphere, dog friendly, nice garden. Will be back

Was feeling cold and hungry after an awful day weather wise. There was an American Independence day theme that night where burgers etc. were the food but they kindly let us put in a normal order from the menu. Nicely cooked and presented. Very tasty. Thank you.

Excellent food, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. I'd like to have given this place 5 stars and I'm sure as time goes on things will improve. However I've knocked off 1 star because quite a few things on the menu were not available. It also took over 45 minutes to arrive (in a fairly empty pub) and each dish arrived 5 minutes apart so as the last person started eating others were finishing.

How have I not discovered this little gem before now? Attending an organised event here was an absolute pleasure. A lovely welcoming atmosphere and a traditional feel has led to me making plans to return with my partner for a meal. I didn’t eat on this occasion but friends who did said the food was delicious.

Great pub in beautiful location. Immediately felt at home with the chirpiness of the lovely bar staff, (Beth a gem,) 3 Ales, (Courage Directors superb,) Steaks cooked to perfection and surrounded by friendly locals in a warm and cozy environment. Top marks!

Took about 50 minutes for our meal with only a few patrons in the pub. Strange combination of tarragon with chicken and mushroom pie. Average size portion and just average all round.

Polite barmaid served us at the table. Food choice was expected bar fayre and we had chicken & mushroom pie. The tarragon sauce was not to our taste, but it was a fresh pie and decent portion sizes. Only one person serving and I had to wait ten mins at the bar to pay for our meal. Would recommend. Good food and pub atmosphere.

The bar staff are just out of primary school and have their friends waiting on a table by the bar. It felt like the local youth club. Food preparation time was way to long and not really worth the wait or the price. The pub itself is beautiful, clean and modern. Need to sort the local youth club problem.

What an interesting visit to this very quaint Somerset pub. We sat in the garden to begin with and ordered our food. The menu is very basic, but that’s not a problem. The pub was extremely quiet on our arrival. After three quarters of an hour, we enquired as to where our food was and were told that “you’ve ordered pies and they take 45 minutes”. (Had we known, we wouldn’t have ordered pies). We moved indoors as it started raining. Ten minutes later (so 55 minutes!) our food started to arrive. There were six of us and we think the food is cooked quite a way from the bar as there was a few minutes gap in between each meal being delivered to the table. So much so, that by the time the last one was delivered, the first meal had nearly been eaten. (Bizarrely, only one plate was carried to the table per journey!) The actual food was fine. Not spectacular but fine. No apology for the length of time the food took. Probably wouldn’t go back unless we had a few hours to spare.

Warm welcome and lovely food. Try the Brewers Steak & Brewers Burger both were delicious. Locals are friendly, will certainly be back when we’re back in the area

Stopped in for a quick bite to eat and was very satisfied with the burgers. Great choice of beer and cider. Large screen for the footy. Outside space. Cosy little place to spend the night if we weren't driving!

Nice barmaid called Rose. Look after us well.

Under new ownership. Serves excellent food, all gluten free. Excellent curry.

Nice pub garden, not a great selection of larger or cider, but the food was nice

Great food lovely location felt very covid safe a little bit of heaven in difficult times

Visited with friends for a Thai gourmet evening. The food was a fabulous 3 course meal. Such a good chef. Will definitely come back again. The best meal we have had for a long time. Lovely atmosphere in the pub. Totally covid safe compliant.

Lovely week spaced garden, good beer

my husband and i visited this lovely village pub the food was amazing the atmosphere is really friendly, really lovely land lady, highly recommended

Nice pub, nice location, nice locals, friendly atmosphere.....

Lovely traditional pub which was recently refurbished. Very clean and covid distancing accommodated. Would not hesitate to recommend a visit. Has real character in a lovely setting.

Nice to see a friendly local taking over the pub. Lovely atmosphere and would highly recommend.

Rustic, warm, homely, friendly and just an all round lovely pub. Plus it’s been newly refurbished. I love it.

Completely refurbished and now lovely in every detail.

Quite nice on a summer's evening, but really needs updating.

My husband had a good draught beer and I had a soft drink. Place was empty at about 5.30, which was confusing as unsure whether open or closed.

Lovely pub nice quiet position.

Dog friendly and friendly staff

Make sure you book as it gets very busy

Went to have a pint at lunch was closed but looking at it its just as well looks run down and a bit of a dive from the outside can not say for inside as not been in , but to be honest its a pub i would happily pass as not inviting from the outside one litte bit

Pub was friendly nice beer and lovely setting by a stream. Good sized beer garden. Clean toilets. No Food :-(

Look on their main page. Dave stevens performed there last night. It was an amazinging atmosphere. Dave was amazing as he always is. The owners well they really excelled themselves, they couldnt do enough for everyone. I really do wish them luck in running this quaint little pub. They are polite and happy go lucky people. The staff were brilliant to . It was so busy they kept it up and stayed in good spirits. The crowd of people that were there they were amazing to. If they have more entertainment there , they are onto a winner. Well sharon , hubby and team. It was all team work. Worked well together. Congratulations to one and all. This was my first time ever and trust me i was way impressed. Xx

New owners have really turned this beautiful mid 19th century pub into a place you want to drink. Polite staff, great snacks and great prices. Only pub in the village with parking, great views, and a stream running alongside the beer garden

You wouldn't recognise it as the same pub -what a fantastic job Sharon & Paul have done !! Now , well worth a visit.

The setting of this pub is beautiful with a stream running in front of it where they host their duck race, however the pub is a different matter. It's very run down with banners for sky sport and football all over the place. We went on a Sunday afternoon for a quiet drink however pop music was blasting out. We asked for a Thatcher's gold and a Bombay saphire gin, we were told that the bottles in the optics were just for show but we do have Gordon's. The grass in the beer garden hadn't been cut and the benches felt like they could fall apart. This pub could be really special however it just seems to be set out to attract people who want to watch sky sports, but not even they can be bothered there was only four other people there. Sorry this place is just a waste of space.

Went for boxing Day duck race. Highly recommended

Lovely Sunday roast, dog friendly and friendly staff too, a must visit, but book the roast😂

Cosy good atmosphere.. friendly.

Passing through and wanted something to eat. Despite signs outside the pub stating food served. No food. This is an old dirty pub which needs total refurbishment. Children's play area awful. Would not recommend and please note this pub does not serve food

What a fantastic pub. Very friendly staff. Definitely recommend and beautiful garden .

Awesome beer and very friendly staff. Very good place.

Been here a few times now when visiting family. Good beer, nice people, nice bar staff. It's a pub. Just like it should be.

Aesthetically pleasing in a quiet area but lacks atmosphere and enthusiasm from staff. Prices are pretty much average.

It's a great place, all are welcome...

Stopped off for a late lunch. Plenty of car parking spaces. Greeted promptly and politely. Given a nice round family table in bay window with great countryside views. Usual Brewers Fayre menu and standards. Staff friendly and would visit again. Food excellent VFM and always well presented.

At a bike rally at court farm so popped down to Banwell, found the Brewers Arms.... Lovely staff, lovely food and plenty of it. Highly recommended :)

Have visited many times as we live close by. Very warm and welcoming and friendly pub, with a good selection of drinks

This is a traditional village inn, slightly off the beaten track and unlikely to get too much in the way of passing trade. As such, it’s a bit of a local’s pub with just a handful of punters propping up the bar on a recent Saturday lunchtime visit, one of whom was swearing rather a lot which I always think creates a rather unpleasant atmosphere, especially in a quiet pub when everyone can hear it and there are ladies present. Outside is a good sized garden as well as a covered smoking area with some leather sofas. Décor wise, it’s quite traditional and with a minimal amount of work could be quite pleasant. There is much exposed stonework including a partition wall splitting the pub in to two halves, with a walk through at each end. Elsewhere the walling was painted wallpaper, cream at the top and maroon lower down and it was this that looked very shabby, with large sections of paint having peeled off to show the previous colour underneath. Something that could be easily fixed at minimal cost and a few hours work smacks of a landlord that takes no pride in the pub. There were a few black beams on the ceiling and a massive stone fire-place with a wood burning stove. A plasma was up on the wall showing the F1, and I thought this would have been better placed in the “public bar” half of the pub along with the darts board rather than in the lounge area. There were a few large speakers around and a notice board advertised a forthcoming Elvis night as well as a BT Sports fixture list. The menu offered a selection of basic pub grub such as hunter’s chicken, sausage & chips, fish & chips, burgers, sandwiches and jackets for around the £6/£7 mark. My ham, egg & chips was a generous portion with plenty of chips and two eggs, although the ham was of the cheap processed variety rather than anything hand carved from a joint. Similarly the tomato sauce was from an unbranded squeezy bottle and was very runny. For the price though, I guess it was fair enough. Despite four had pumps on the bar, two appeared unused and the Bass had run out leaving Doom Bar as the only option. Ciders meanwhile were Thatcher’s Gold & Thatcher’s Haze, which I’ve not seen on draught before. I think the character of this pub is likely to depend on who’s there at the time. With the sweary bloke at the bar on our visit, I didn’t really warm to it, but on another day it could easily be a friendly little local, although even the barmaid didn’t help by ignoring us as we left.

Best pub I've been to in years! The beer was spot on, the staff was soo nice to us and helped out with all our needs and the locals are amazing! Even the smoking area is good. Everything about this pub has been put together for the sake of the punters and not for profit!

I have to say I couldn't disagree more with the previous reviews. This little pub is a fantastic lace to drink or eat. It feels like a proper pub and the staff and patrons are all extremely pleasant. There is a nice beer garden by the river, away from the hustle and bustle of the village centre, and a children's play area. Inside, the smell is that of a real pub. Drinks are very good and the Sunday lunch is delectable: possibly the best I have experienced, certainly in a pub. Love everything about this pub and have returned every day on my visit to Banwell Castle, and will undoubtedly return again!

The staff are good are good. It's just the local customers. What a shocking pub, It started well until we asked for a Taxi to take us back to our camp site. Then we got told it was on it's way (after over an hour) and it was going to cost £10.00. One of our group said it's only a mile away and we got told where to go (very blunt)

Crap waste of space Go t o the timeout cafe
