The Crown Inn at Catcott in Sedgemoor - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Although staying in Bridgwater, we found this little gem through Tripadvisor. We certainly wouldn’t have found it otherwise as it’s a little off the beaten track. This is a pub that’s retained its original charm and hasn’t been converted into a full on gastro pub. It’s quirky but clean and full of little nooks and crannies. The friendliness and welcome from the staff was second to none, making us feel very welcome. Even the locals were happy to chat. The food was excellent with us both having the lamb off the specials board followed by the lemon meringue roulade. No need for the mint sauce as the accompanying sauce/gravy was exquisite. My one and only request would be for a local ale as you can get Timothy Taylor anywhere. However there was a local cider served from a box on the bar. This certainly went some way to making up for the lack of ales and could easily have led me astray if it were not for having to make our way back to Bridgwater. The Crown is certainly a hidden gem and one that we would have no hesitation in returning to in the future should we find ourselves in the area again.

Right out in the sticks.. and looks half pub / half farm! I didn’t get the name of the young lady that served us but she was fantastic! Very friendly, great proper home cooked grub Good beer and great dog! What’s not to like! We’ll definitely be back when we’re down here next

We decided to eat out at short notice. We looked at the menus of several pubs and decided to choose the crown. We arrived after looking a the menu we discovered it was different to the website. We were told it had changed recently, so we did say i suggest the website is updated. When it came to drinks they didn't have prosecco. Never known a pub not have prosecco. We asked for the following and they don't stock any of them. They didn't ginger beer, coke zero, bitter lemon and neither ginger ale. Very limited on drinks. We were offered diet coke which we don't like. We did ask what flavoured mixers they had only to be told, NONE..... We ordered food. 1 gammon steak, when it came it was extremely salty and 1 rather expensive rump steak, cooked rare which was medium to well when it arrived. However when I complained a rare rump was placed in front of me which was much appreciated, but I couldn't eat it as it was full of sinue and is now in the cat bowl at home. Oh I did forget to say that when I asked for a bottle of still spring water that could not be supplied either I was offered some kind of filtered tap water which tasted worse than my unfiltered tap water at home. If you take my advice don't complain about anything because if you saw the state the chef was in then it would put you off eating out for life. This may seem over the top but believe you me each point is accurate. I think it's safe to say we don't recommend the pub and definitely will not return.

Had an amazing meal last night, the food was excellent as always along with the service. Was disappointed to see a review thismorning that was totally unessecery and incorrect. These people were rude to the staff and down right awkward. If you have problems chewing my friend dont order a rare steak. From what u saw the steak was perfect. I don't think Gorden Ramseycould of made you happy. Thankyou to the staff at the crown. We've been comeing here for over 15 years and never had bad meal yet. Keep up the good work

Delicious food that's reasonably priced, very welcoming staff and dog friendly. Thoroughly recommend!

Great place for a decent meal good staff smashing food great price plenty of parking spaces

Lovely little find. Welcomed on the phone, welcomed through the door and the food was amazing. Thank you to “mum” in the kitchen. The lamb was amazing and so was the crumble. We met people that have returned for another visit because the food was so good . I can understand that Thank you

Very welcoming pub as we are from Kent. Felt very comfortable talking to locals and owners of the pub. Food was exceptional and large portions, highly recommend a visit.

Fabulous overnight with motorhome, really friendly owners and atmospheric pub! Food fantastic.... all home cooked and fresh.

Good food good price large portions good service. I will be back

Just had evening meal here with seven friends who work locally And what can I say what a hidden jem food was delicious and served promptly all came out together which was good for the size of our party Nice friendly atmosphere and as we go out every wed to a different venue We have now added this to our list of go to places Get your self down here you won’t regret it Thanks to all the staff for a wonderful time

was told when we ordered that they were short staffed in the kitchen an there would be abit of a wait but decided to stay an wait, well worth it, creamy garlic mushrooms were just perfect and as for my steak, cooked to perfection 👌 old style country pub, friendly staff, friendly locals I will defo be going back even if the road there is abit rough, well worth the journey, my compliments to all the staff was that good went back, didn't disappoint, food was top notch

Absolutely fantastic stopover with campervan, Staff go above and beyond to be helpful, very friendly locals, food is amazing Would highly recommend.

Great service and friendly pub, dog friendly and food was amazing. Was only going to have a main but shared a starter and the made room for desert due to the quality of the food. Thumbs up from me.

Great site for motorhome stop over from M5 large free car park. Brilliant bar food very good quality and excellent value 👌

What a welcoming and ace pub. Me an my wife stayed overnight in our motor home from the Wirral, Lovely food, great Timothy Taylor’s and most of all, lovely people in the pub. We shared laughs and beers whilst watching the champions league final! Excellent pub, support it and let’s keep these places going coz they make the world tick over 👍

Stopped for dinner as we were stuck on the M5 for hours. The reviews were good so thought we would give it a try. Food was great. Service was good. Sat in the garden in the sunshine. A great break. Lots of etc touches you wouldn’t find everyone which was good. Very dog and children friendly

Very cozy atmosphere, nice owner, good beer and cider and very tasty food. We had the daily specials. We were also allowed to spend the night in the parking lot after eating.

Sehr gemütliches Ambiente, netter Besitzer, gutes Bier und Cider und sehr leckeres Essen. Wir hatten die Tages-Specials. Zudem durften wir nach dem Essen auf dem Parkplatz übernachten.

We ate here for four night while staying nearby. All the meals we had were delicious and generous portions. The steak pie had the most steak in it I have ever had in a pie.

Great atmosphere. Live singer was brilliant. Great night out.

Words like "probably the best steak and ale pie ever" were heard at the end of the meal ... And for all meals the quality and the quantity were very high ... A great find!

A fabulous Saturday night at The Crown Inn at Catcott. great menu, good atmosphere and splendid live music. A must visit.

It was one of the best sunday roasts I have ever had and even better with the company of the very friendly dog!! Will definitely be stopping here if possible in the future!!

Lovely pub that has kept it's identity lovely food and staff I have been going there for years never had a bad meal lovely open fire .

Absolutely outstanding, incredible food, the steak and ale pie was the best in the uk. We live a long way up the country but would pack the camper and come here ,it just can't be beaten.

We stopped over in our motorhome and had food and drinks , they could not have been more helpful , really great stay and live music when we visited

Used Motorhome stopover for one night. Absolutely loved it, the beer, the food, the people and the place were just perfect. Would highly recommend.

Lovely dog friendly campervan stopover with nice food. Not much more you can ask for

Great carvery for mothers day, lovely staff and a really nice atmosphere, very traditional pub, a lovely afternoon.

A little cramped and noisy, but this was more the clientele rather than the establishment! The meal and service were excellent. Look forward to visiting again!

I would highly recommend this pub to anyone looking for a great dining experience.” Amazing home cooked food! The food can’t get better and prices are fair along with good portions sizes The whole experience is always great from start to finish Waitresses & bar staff are always so friendly and helpful. Overall, this is an incredible dining experience. ...

We were so impressed with the food we visited again. Excellent service and very nice staff.

Boozy lunch with fantastic food and service. Gf requirements catered for. Really nice place to spend time in. I can't fault it. Thank you

We visited in January around 13:00 for a Sunday Carvery - a fantastic little pub - low ceilings, open fire 🔥 The food was exceptional and we will be visiting again!

Popped in for a Boxing Day pint. Place was heaving with a skittle comp on. So great to see a local pub doing well

Lovely old real pub. Friendly service at the table. With a nice welcome. Lovely and warm with a real fire .

Great live music evening, nice welcoming log fire,very friendly staff.

A great wee pub,on the Somerset levels. Amazing carvery today. Highly recommendable ! Lovely roaring fire. Friendly staff.

Good country pub, great cosy atmosphere and big fireplace, great comfort food and service.

Had occasion to visit this establishment following a days fishing nearby Never been here before but have to say I certainly look forward to going back. The service was first class, the food was excellent - Had the best steak I have had for many a year. To top it all off - A good old fashioned historic country pub with a great atmosphere - Easily 5 stars all round

Quality Sunday Roast, highly recommend

The food was lovely, especially the cheesecake. The chap that served us was very friendly.

Popped by, stopped off Saturday night in our camper van. We were made to feel very welcome, Pickles the Frenchie is lovely, our Schichon took a while to warm to her, but she is lovey. I had the Faggots, my wife has the dirty fries, both were a decent, hearty meal, well cooked, proper wholesome pub food. We only had a couple of drinks as we'd had a long week & were asleep by 8:30pm! Will return.

Had the carvery today and the beef was delicious, cooked to perfection and really tender. Would definitely go again.

Used it as a stop off for a night. V.friendly staff (and pug!). Great food and a lovely pint of Tribute.

Brilliant overnight stop in the camper. Service was ace food great and the landlady and her girls were lovely.

Great food but the pub itself needs updating. Best veggie burger I've ever had

My husband and I enjoyed a 10oz steak yesterday evening. Fantastic meal and desserts. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Has a lovely cosy atmosphere. Highly recommend!! Thank you to the owners and staff 👏👏

Very friendly family run traditional pub. Great music from the 80s Food good and ales on pump

Top pub stopover, planned stop on returning from Cornwall to Cambridgeshire. Very friendly staff with excellent service and delicious food. Cannot recommend highly enough. Will definitely return.

What a surprise this was - very unassuming from the outside but as soon as I walked in and smelled beer (as all pubs should smell of but few do these days) I knew we were going to be OK. The beer was great and so was the music but the food hit another level entirely, my pork belly was superb as were the other dishes, no skimping on portion size either. It's an old rustic place but all the better for it - this is how pubs used to be everywhere back in the day - well done to the owners for keeping it real and congrats to whoever is cooking the food as they really know what they're doing.

Amazing food, will definately be going back again, absolute gem of a pub...

Great atmosphere and prices for food and berages

Great food and a fantastic outside entertainment area

Absolute belter of a country pub. Just what we wanted. Stopped off to stay in the T5 in their car park, they were most welcoming. Food, banging. Proper pub food but better.

Great pub perfect on route stop off in our t5 , dog friendly too

I have been to this lovely old pub for many years on and off, It has always been a pleasure with great food, Beers ciders and wines . The 16oz rump steak was cooked to perfection!! Highly recommended!!!!

Great food. STAFF VERY WELCOMING get there early if you want to stay over got filled up very quickly 😀

Fabulous experience Warm and friendly team and great food

Great pub with excellent menu. Friendly staff and first class service. Value for money too with generous portions. Well worth a visit.

Lovely country pub with plenty of parking and beer garden. Their home made food is to die for and one of the best local Sunday carvery.

Stopped at the Crown in the motorhome and wanted electric but had all gone, owners tried to accommodate me with electric but didn't have the correct adapter but went out of their way to help. The pub is a country pub with great owners big open fire really nice atmosphere would definitely call back when passing.

Auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert. Dieses urige Pub ist innen sehr schön eingerichtet. Es gibt auch einen schönen Platz zum draußen Sitzen. Der Gastwirt ist sehr gesellig. - Und wir hatten uns super auf Englisch unterhalten können. Wer mit dem Wohnmobil "Britstop" nutzt, den erwartet ein großen Parkplatz mit meist Gleichgesinnten. Ich werde gerne Wiederkommen.👍

A little gem, we love this pub! Warm friendly welcome from the landlord and all the staff. We booked a table for Mothers Day, and although obviously extremely busy, the meal was excellent. The carvery is delicious and plentiful with a good selection of home cooked meats and vegetables. Highly recommend.

Lovely place serving great food.

Excellent carvery Sunday roast. Good beer and very friendly staff. Unfortunately no room to enjoy a dessert. Would definitely come back again if we are in the area

Lovely meal excellent beer great experience

Excellent service, brilliant food. It was so nice to get out after lockdown. Thank you Dan & Co 😊👍 it was great to visit again and see things getting back to normal (I hope😳)

Dan and the team were great, quick service with drinks and food. We stayed overnight in the car park which was lovely, along with about a dozen other camper Van's and motorhomes. Live music was a nice bonus to keep us entertained, if your in the area with you motorhome or van l highly recommend you check this place out.

This is such a lovely pub and food wonderful...while we were there though we were aware of people there taking drugs ....it will I'm sure ruin this nice place adventually...not much notice seems to be taken although they were busy at the time ...the men taking them seemed to be local we could overhear them talking about it ...that's a shame I think will ruin a lovely place

after an unfortunate stop in cossington the following day we found the crown at catcott. Great country pub even though we couldnt go inside. Best ploughman's lunch ever and all covid rules strictly adhered tocant wait to return when life gets back to normal. Recommended.

Was looking for a place to stay overnight in our campervan so we could cycle and walk in the Avalon Marshes. Contacted The Crown Inn and was invited to stay in their car park. Asked if we could arrive late morning - no problem. After our cycle ride, we ordered dinner. The garden was buzzing with diners but it was a little chilly, so we asked if we could eat in the van - no problem! I can honestly say it was one of the nicest scampi and chips I have had in a long time. Freshly cooked, home made chips, good portion of scampi, salad, lovely coleslaw delivered to our van - no problem! Nothing is too much trouble for the young couple running the pub, very friendly and welcoming. Need to go back another time as I understand their burgers are the best in the area!

Popped in first day off re opening cold in garden but same warm welcome that iv come to except at the crown had a lovely mea the crown does the best burger in area. A real old fashioned pub with restaurants quality food not many pub like this left in the area very reasonably priced good selection off bears and cidar

This little hidden gem is on the incredible scale and my god has the best home made cheese cake you have ever had.We have been here for the carvery a few times and its 10/10 for quality and taste, i have also had the home made pie a couple times that again has been the best home made pie i have had locally.We have been a few times for steak and the plate comes loaded with everything you expect to be there including some awesome onion rings.If you are a desert lover i am telling you to come here and havebthe home made cheesecake and if you do not think its best ill pay for Cheese cake myself i am that confident.Absolutely beautiful local home made food.

Had the most delicious loaded pizza and burger last night, very generous portions and so tasty. Delivery service excellent (covid safe) will definitely be going back for more. Thank you

Me and my partner visited the crown yesterday evening and we could not recommended more to others thinking about visiting. Brilliant food really friendly staff and the landlord and landlady were very welcoming. We will be most definitely be returning.

My brother and I booked a table for lunch today, on arrival I noted that the waitresses all had plastic facemasks on - well-done team, although not every member of staff was wearing a face covering. We were shown to our table, which was in an old alcove, very quaint (mind your head there). We ordered drinks (3 x Coke Zeros) but we were brought 3 x Diet Cokes, which is not the same as Zero, so I sent mine back as the additives in Diet Coke plays hell with my blood sugars. The carvery meal was most delightful, the carrots were so soft they melted away in my mouth, the peas were cooked to my ideal specification, the beef was ever so tasty, lean and mouthwateringly moist as was the turkey. The roast potatoes were HUGE four was more than enough for me, and that Yorkshire which looked like a castle turret was so fluffy and tasty. The staff were very attentive, one came over to see how the meal was before I had even put a fork to a pea. I asked to see the dessert menu after polishing off the main meal, a waitress returned and told me the items available, I opted for good old fashioned apple crumble (crumble crumble) - WHO PUTS SULTANAS IN APPLE CRUMBLE?? - I did not eat it, although I did taste the crumble which was deliciously buttery and I could happily have had a bowl full of that alone. Overall a good dining experience - thank you very much

My wife and i were on our way to Bristol and needed a hot meal. I found the Crown Inn on line and due to the Covid 19 restrictions, had to pre book. From the outside it does not look that inviting but once inside it had a great atmosphere. The lady that welcomed us served at table and nothing was to much trouble. We both had pie with mas and vegetables. My wife had chicken and leek but there was not much leek. I had beef and ale pie and was very happy with that.

We visit hear every time we go down to burnham. Although there are closer places to eat, it is well worth the drive out. ( about 25 mins drive) The food was lovely as usual no complaints. As you are not allowed to put your own veg on your plate (covid) I asked for all the veg and the plate was piled high, probably double the amount I would put on, not that I’m complaining! It was all very nice and I very nearly ate it all. All the staff where good. The barman friendly and chatty. Young waitresses nice and polite. And the owners/chef friendly and warm. We will return! We keep saying we need to go and try the weekday menu... one day we will....

Stayed here in our Camper twice in August on our way to and from Cornwall. Really friendly pub with great food. Definitely stay again.

Havent acculee been in this pub this month but when ever I had a meal here been excellent, this pub run a take away sevice during lock down,and as a care worker living in during lock down this was a very welcome sevice great food good staff

Just visiting Catcott for a few days and we wandered into the Crown Inn for a quick drink...and left 3 hours later. We felt so welcome and had a truly wonderful evening chatting to the staff and friendly locals. And the venison casserole was delicious. If only we lived closer we would be regulars!

Best Sunday roast I’ve had for a long time. Very generous portions and really good food. Lovely staff too.

We had a lovely meal here. The portions are generous and the moment steak was outstanding. Tables are distanced from each other, the staff were friendly and efficient.The only note of concern was that the bar was quite crowded and we were the only people wearing masks.

What a great place. Having been very nervous about going out the family team went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble from start to finish. Fantastic meals of venison and duck with sticky toffee pudding for dessert. Everything was so tasty and portion sizes are very generous. Will definitely visit again.

Decided to have a couple of nights here on a recommendation. Wow, food was fantastic. Had Saturday evening and Sunday lunch. Landlady could'nt have been friendlier. Thank you.

what can I say perfect welcome outstanding food ! The best venison and cheesecake beats all the Mitchell restaurants! Would come 163 miles just for the food ! Highly recommend! We are a large motorhome with a dog no problem at all thank you ! X

Excellent pub. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Fab karaoke and the food was really tasty, esp the bone marrow gravy and the biscotti cheesecake. Coming back tomorrow.

We rang up last minute for a caravan stop over and meal for us and our two other caravan buddies, nothing was too much trouble. Electric hookup, amazing food, excellent portion sizes and lovely friendly family to look after us.. we will definitely be stopping here again.. here’s to a wonderful start to our weeks holiday in brixham, thank you

Family run and friendly pub. Felt safe, hand gel on entrance/exit. Tables well spaced for social distancing. Food excellent, have been before,and always made to feel very welcome. Staff go above and beyond to ensure you enjoy your visit.

Top place to visit, felt so welcome under the currant circumstances nothing was to much trouble. Well... The steak was first class the best I’ve ever had..!! I’m Definitely coming back definitely worth a visit you don’t know what you’re missing.

It was a shock. Only one door, no warnings or Virus protection advice. Bar staff serving as normal with no masks etc. Food delivered to table from staff who didn’t even try to wear masks etc. The man who I assume was the landlord kept going out to smoke/vape and coughed all over me in the doorway.This establishment did not try in any way. Food not good. The venison was tough as old boots.

Quick recommendation for Motor home stop over and we called very short notice on a Friday night. Availability for food and a van would be made.Lovely old pub with a nice welcoming friendly atmosphere.We arrived with our 2 children 5 and 1 and were given a really warm welcome. I asked for crisps for baby and was told they had non but to wait and the guy came back with some under 1 month baby carrot chips- result! Our son was taken off to the play area!16 OZ steak, lasagne and kids sausage and mash - All huge portions and extremely good pub grub. We even had a couple of ciders, which we were given quite large samples of before hand. Guys if your this way, this is what you want from a pub stop over. Thank you very much for a great meal and a nice rest half way home.

We were on a rural walk and stopped here for a pint. There was a nice warm welcome. In COVID times the large garden area is attractive with lots of outside seating. A busy pub even on a weekday late afternoon, so it's obviously popular. The beer was good! There were people staying here in the grounds, in motorhomes and that added to the amount of people using the pub.

We stayed in this pub car park in our campervan en route to our holiday destination. We had EHU so paid £5, otherwise there is no charge for overnight stays. We had a wonderful evening meal. I had a homemade steak pie, my wife had mousakka and our children (aged 9 and 5) shared a pizza and chips (Dan advised us that the pizza was huge and that they would be ok sharing). There was a lovely play area outside which the children enjoyed and we all ate whilst the sun set in peaceful surroundings. Thank you so much, we'll definitely be back.

Stayed overnight in motorhome and had very good meals. Friendly hosts and plenty of room in car park.

Welcoming barman was very friendly and showed us to our table took our drinks order and was very professional. Rowena and staff were very friendly and hard working. The place when you enter has a lovely log fire and the inside is very cosy. We had the carvery I had beef and pork my wife had the turkey and pork, the meat portions are very generous and well cooked. There was a good choice of freshly cooked vegetables and again staff checked to see if everything was to our liking. The beef slice was so big I could not eat it all so I asked if I could have it to take away. The Crown is in the village of Catcott and is a bit difficult to find thanks to my sat nav I found it with no problem. We will certainly return to have the lovely service from Rowena and staff.

Staying in the area recommended by host. We had a warm welcoming by all staff. Roaring fire. Amazing food. Would definitely return if the area.

Me and my partner have now been here a few times and the food is out of this world ! I’m a very big eater and I always leave full up ! The flavours are very good and the staff are very friendly and helpful , we both had the dreamy creamy chicken and if you get the chance go for it one of the nicest meals you can eat ! Highly recommend , if you like good hearty pub food and lots of it make sure you give this place a try 10/10
