The Dining Room in Sedgemoor

The Dining Room is now CLOSED and is now THE MUSIC PANTRY, vegetarian, vegan, restaurant with various music events, haven’t been yet but though it might be prudent to advise of the new venture

Visited twice now on a late Friday morning for breakfast to find the dining room closed. No explanation so not sure what is happening, notice on the door saying sorry we are closed.

This lovely local tea room is very accommodating. Having checked the day before we wanted a GF breakfast they arranged a lovely one for me. I think you need to give them a days notice if you don’t want to be disappointed. Price for an FEB which included tea and coffee at only £7.75 was a full and very reasonable breakfast. Three Gluten Free cakes/tray baked we available as a walk in customer and although not adventurous they are a welcome sweet eat with your tea and coffee. I will highly recommend but give warning if you want GF savoury eats.

I have tried most of the local breakfast places in the area, and have had my favourite for sometime but when that went downhill I went on the hunt to find a new one. At last I seem to have found it, fabulous service, good quality fresh local produce, freshly & well cooked and presented and great value for money, what more can you ask for. Thank you so much, we will be back. Oh and they are dog friendly, so your fur baby can come too.

Stopped by for a coffee break. Very good cappuccino, served by friendly efficient waitress. Interior is a bit of a hitch pitch of ideas, but this rather adds to it's charm.

Kate and team catered for 18 at my daughter's hen do. The food was superb quality, generous quantities and great value. Everything was delivered exactly as arranged and helped to make our weekend stress-free and enjoyable. There were absolutely no complaints from anybody in the group. Many thanks to all.

Very friendly and amazing food, highly recommended especially the cheese cakes and the scones. Perfect place for a fine cream tea.

Fantastic traditional Christmas lunch, good service and friendly atmosphere. The food was very well cooked and was exactly what one would expect. A very enjoyable time.

This is the place for cake and coffee. The cakes are sumptuous. A friendly and comfortable place for lingering over a cup of tea and a chat.

In an age of coffee chains and fast food - how lovely to find a proper tearoom serving cakes, light lunches, cream teas etc. in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Our lunch was plentiful and tasty - we will definitely return.

Kate and her team did an outstanding job catering for a very large funeral today. The weather conditions were horrendous, gale force winds battering the Marquee. The food was delicious and her team we're friendly and helpful. Thank you for outstanding service.Highly Recommended

Totally awesome roast meal, welcoming staff, atmospheric restaurant, lovely locals who made us welcome

A friend and I went to Wedmore on a whim and looked around the village. We were recommended to try The Dining Room and so went there for lunch. The service was friendly and efficient and the food of good quality. I had the Leek and Potato soup followed by Mackerel cooked in Lemon with a salad. My friend had the Beef Lasagne. We enjoyed the food and ambience and now have a new place near Glastonbury at which to dine.

I went with a group of friends for an evening meal at The Dining Room. The food was of good quality and came out hot and steaming. I had the soup to start with and the fish pie as the main course. Both had lovely flavours but I was disappointed with the vegetables, as they looked sad and there was only a few of them stuck on the side of my plate. As we were the only group in there it did lack atmosphere but I have made the assumption it will be better in the daytime.

This tea room /restaurant is really full of charm ,from the moment you open the door.We had a lovely warm dish stew with a side salad and roll.Presented well and generous .It was very tasty and filling.Main menu very good with veggie option.Plenty of tables and cosy and clean.disabled access and disabled toilet.Parking in free car park in village as well as very clean public toilets .Afterwards take a walk around the village and look at church or take a walk up the footpath by the car park and if your feeling like a shopping spree try the small arcade.

'El Comedor', es un inglés tradicional restaurante con un menú muy variado. Todas caseras y de muy buena calidad a un precio razonable. El personal es amable y muy eficiente. Hemos cenado aquí por muchos años, la calidad ha sido constante y mis amigos y...

Lovely olde worlde cafe for a relaxing light lunch or afternoon tea. Excellent food though you might have to wait a little for a cooked option but not a problem in such relaxing atmosphere. Small outside seating area, cosy yet roomy inside.

Visited in the morning but fancied a cream tea (had coffee!)- we were not disappointed! Gorgeous fresh scones, plenty of jam & cream, great coffee, friendly service, lovely place to sit out - fab!

The food was amazing! Staff were all very friendly and helpful, lots of laughs down to earth but very well organised.Highly recommend the Beef Wellington!!!!!!!

Thank you Kate and team for a lovely lunch, friends and myself really enjoyed our lunch. Good for people with " celiac " the team are always willing to help and very polite . Gluten free sponges are lush, so light and filling perfect .keep baking Kate all food and cakes are lush

I would like to thank Kate and her team on the excellent food they prepared and served at our sons christening, the 2 waitresses were excellent and couldn't do enough for us throughout the day. The food was outstanding with a great variety of different things and we had so many lovely comments afterwards from our guests. Thank you again Kate xxxx

Always a warm welcome from Kate and team. Lovely coffee, attentive staff, comfortable armchairs, recommended!

I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to the Dining Room this Saturday. It was buzzing with a friendly atmosphere, a warm welcome and I was served with delicious food. I had an English Cream Tea - home roasted ham sandwiches, a cream scone and a piece of Victoria sponge - the lightest sponge I've tasted in a long time. All beautifully presented in a vintage tea stand. My husband had his all time favourite, an English breakfast, and declared it to be 'up there with the best'. I could highly recommend The Dining Room if you are in Wedmore.

Popped in here on a very miserable wet day. Sadly it was as miserable inside as out ! The decor is very tired.we wernt offered menus, waitress not very interested in serving.I orderded a sparkling water which obviously had been poured from a larger bottle and dident have much sparkle. Also had cheese on toast,but with only a very thin layer of cheese on nasty sliced bread. My husband had a tea cake which was ok.we had to request both cutlery and sugar. Very overpriced,i noticed jacket potatoes started at £7.50 !Not a great experience for us !

This restaurant changed hands in the latter part of 2014 and I was concerned that as a regular I would be disappointed. On the contrary the menu has been improved, the food is beautifully cooked and presented and the portions are generous. The staff are extremely pleasant and the whole experience has been delightful. I visit on average every 3 weeks and eat out at least twice each week at a variety of restaurants all over the UK and Europe so I feel well qualified to recommend this establishment unreservedly. If you like tea afternoon the cakes and scones (all homemade) are exceptional and the tea is loose leaf.

We came to wedmore for the shopping and had lunch at The Dining Room, it was superb. The waitress was lovely and very attentive. It was so lovely we went back for afternoon cream teas. Would highly recommend.

We went into The Dining Room for afternoon tea, the cakes and scones looked lovely and tasted even better. The owner, Kate was a lovely cheery lady who looked after us very well, even though it was quite busy.

As a party of 10 we went to The Dining room to celebrate Mothers Day.A very comprehensive menu which has something for everyone. Lovely fresh food which was all served piping hot and efficiently. Will definitely return and would highly recommend! Thank you!

Wedmore seemed like a nice little village so I stopped for an afternoon coffee and cake. The later was very average and overpriced. Not bad, but there are so many good places, it's no wonder this one was empty!

Went there last night amazing food, never seen lamb like it, really made you feel welcome with great service. hoping to have them cater for my wedding.

Popped in for a cup of tea and cake after trawling around the shops. My pot of leaf tea came with a jug of hot water, which is always a good sign in my book. The cakes all looked lovely and it was hard to choose. The menu looks quite simple and we will probably go back for lunch. The waitress was friendly and efficient. I'd be quite happy to pop in on my own.

Visited The Dining Room today for Sunday lunch and have to say it was fantastic. Very friendly staff, lovely atmosphere and a great choice on the menu at a reasonable price. My partner (who can be fussy with roast dinners) said that his roast beef was the best he had ever tasted! Unfortunately I was too full to manage a dessert but after seeing what the people on the next table had ordered we will definitely be returning very soon.

The Dining Room has changed ownership and I was disappointed in the choice of food and general ambience

We went in on Saturday as we had heard that there were new owners. A friendly waitress met us at the door and we asked whether they did a cooked breakfast, they said they didn't but would check with the chef. She said she could do it and sent someone next door to the farm shop next door to get the ingredients. The breakfast was lovely, not at all greasy and the atmosphere was very friendly. We will definitely be returning!

Now under new management the Dining Room is serving fabulous Sunday lunches and a great choice of home made desserts. You really must make time to visit.

Lovely relaxing place to eat, nice environment with very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent value for money and superb meal with wine.

I can recommend the toasted tea cakes, scones and cakes but for a savoury snack the freshly made to order bacon sandwiches are the best. This has become a regular haunt for the past 3 years as the food never disappoints.

When in Wedmore I always have lunch/afternoon tea in this restaurant. The menu is extensive and varied, the food is home cooked and delicious and the service is superb. The scones are possibly the best I have ever tasted!The restaurant is also extremely comfortable and the tables are well spaced; the prices competitive.

This family run restaurant is extremely reasonably priced compared to the other restaurants in the village. Friendly owners and staff, great loose leaf tea and a good selection of lovely homemade cakes make this well worth visiting.

I found this place whilst my partner and I were visiting the village, dress shopping and stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant. The food reminds me very much of the down to earth, honest home-cooked which I grew up on, all served in a traditional setting with friendly service. Due to a gluten allergy I ordered the gluten free fish pie and my partner ordered the lamb and apricot casserole. Both dishes were both tasty and in our opinion good value for money. Will definitely visit again if in the area.

I had a Cheese and Mushroom omelette with a generous side salad. The omelette was cooked to perfection, and served with a colourful salad with a wide variety of dressings to accompany. The service was fast and extremely friendly, giving a warm and relaxing atmosphere. To drink I had an excellent Cappuccino , personally the best coffee the village has to offer. A flawless lunch all round, therefore I have already recommended The Dining Room to my friends and family.

Last Sunday I had possibly the best lunch I have ever tasted. My meal included a brilliantly cooked roast beef, homemade Yorkshire pudding, lashings of gravy and a great serving of freshly cooked vegetables. I followed this by a lemon meringue pie, a light option, which was truly favourable by me and other customers around me. The service was very quick, and there was a brilliant warm welcome from the staff. Overall, a lovely meal out and a brilliant experience. I would recommend it for all the family. Excellent.

Sadly went to The Dining Room last Saturday for a meal at what was supposed to be a celebration for St. Patrick's night. A great band playing but oh the food. they did not say when booking that it was a 3 course set meal that you had to have also when shown the menu when we arrived no price on the menu!! Nothing screaming out Irish on the menu and having lived in Ireland for 12 years I was expecting some traditional dishes. First course Prawn cocktail with the smallest prawns available, bit of lettuce and sauce with half a slice of bread and butter. Main course, my husbands Fish pie came out so burnt around the edge it had obviously been left in the oven for ages, that went back. I had Beef cooked in Guinness with cobbler, beef was good but the cobbler was overcooked and the top 10mm was solid and could not even be cut with a knife. Even the vegetables were a bit basic sliced carrots and broccoli. Sweet poached pear with whisky cream served with a teaspoon, the pear so hard you needed a knife and fork to cut it. So sorry would not recommend to any of my friends and will definitely not be returning.

Visited the above venue for lunch at the end of October. I had been here before but in the evening. Went with friends and because it had been busy on my previous visits in the evening we booked a table. On arriving we were welcomed at the door and shown to our tableby a very pleasant waitress. We were given menus and our drinks order was taken. The menu was limited (always a good sign, I think) and our drinks were brought quickly. We were given time to peruse the menu before we had to order.There was not a long wait for our food, which was beautifully presented and every dish tasted sublime. The puddings were lovely and altogether we all thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The price was very reasonable and we left feeling replete. There was no need to have booked as there were not many people there on a Wednesday lunchtime but in the summer I think it would be necessary as Wedmore is a very popular village with holidaymakers.

A party of 4 sat down to lunch in November. The dining room (their lower case not mine) is situated on the main street in Wedmore: a pretty but very congested village near Cheddar. We were lucky enough to park almost right outside the door as one of our party is disabled; I would advise parking in the free car parks behind the Mall or in the good, but often empty, village car park and walk the enormous distance of 300 metres into the village (most don’t which adds to the congestion).The dining room prides itself on ’good old fashioned food that’s freshly prepared’ and that was certainly our experience. All food is home cooked and delicious. It opens for lunch every day, evening meals Friday and Saturday evenings; and for special evening meals - currently on offer: a jazz night, candlelight supper with live piano, Christmas lunches. I suspect that most of its annual trade will come from afternoon teas in the tourist season. The restaurant is part of the exclusive clothes shop Compton House of Fashion, so browsing is easy. My hubbie and I ordered lasagne, unfortunately there was only one portion left so we shared that and a lamb and apricot casserole, served with a dumpling. The lasagne was just perfect – not too fatty as they sometimes can be; it was served with a good salad. The casserole was tasty although my husband lamented the lack of lamb in it, but the dumpling was first class – I’ve never had such a light and perfectly cooked one before. Our friends had the casserole, and coronation chicken – chocked full of tasty chicken. Puddings were a revelation. Hubbie and I went for baked jam sponge with custard – evoking memories of childhood. A quarter of a pudding arrived, obviously steamed in a proper pudding basin, beautifully cooked with a hint of lemon in the sponge and good jam: absolutely superb. Our friends had apple crumble and cheesecake – all declared to be good. All main courses were £9.25 and puddings were £6.25. This may be relatively expensive for lunch in Somerset, but Wedmore is a sought-after and popular place – for what we ate we thought it was fine. It certainly received our seal of approval and we will return. I also have a hankering to come for afternoon tea and try the delicious-looking home bakes on display!

I returned to The Dining Room on 8th November and had a delicious home made fish pie and a glass of local farmhouse cider. As always this friendly restaurant delivers and is consistently good.My wife had a piece of poached salmon with tartare sauce washed down with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc again excellent.

After other positive reviews, my wife and I thought we would try lunch here midweek. The menu choices on the chalk board outside looked interesting enough (just) and we already knew we'd probably go for the two casserole choices. Once you enter and are offered a table you can see quite how elderly are the regular clientele. The decor is also more 1950-70s, a traditional dining room look, like visiting your grandmother or an old style seaside hotel. We ordered both a steak & ale casserole and a lamb and apricot one, both with dumplings (what proved to be one dumpling each), together with homemade presses (lemon and elderflower). To day that the meals were disappointing is an understatement. The food is very bland and no better than most families could produce at home. Very little flavour and just boring basically with very little variety of vegetables or anything else in the casseroles.I would suggest that those under 70 avoid this restaurant, though it may be a safe bet for those without their own teeth.

We booked into The Dining Room for Sunday lunch with family and had a delicious home cooked meal . Roast Beef, Lemon Posset and Shortbread. The owner Amanda made us feel very welcome and the service was prompt despite the restaurant being really busy. The decor is very welcoming nothing and our party sat in front of a lovely old mahogany dresser, This restaurant is a family run concern where staff take time to know their customers and enjoy talking. This helps to give a welcoming lovely atmosphere.

I have dined at The Dining Room many times and decided to try their Sunday Lunch service. I had roast lamb with homemade mint sauce and a Lemon Posset for dessert washed down with probably the best latte i have ever had. This restaurant is a family run business with delicious home cooked food and great service.

I visit this restaurant whenever I am in the area, the food is locally sourced and home cooked. The menu has plenty of choice from hot dishes to a variety of salads and jacket potatoes. The home made cakes or scones with jam and clotted cream are absolutely delicious and the prices are competitive.This is a family owned and run business which is reflected in the excellent service.

This restaurant serves local fresh produce, cooked well, at a reasonable price. What more could you ask. The staff are pleasant and friendly. There is a good choice of home made starters and the beef Sunday roast with accompanying vegetables was delicious. The desserts, were again, all freshly made, sticky toffee pudding, apple & blackberry crumble, Eton mess or trifle. We have been before for breakfast, and weekday lunches. Is the décor dated? Is it a little old fashioned? Yes but it is a clean family run restaurant that cares about its customers. We will always go again. Consistently excellent.

We visit this restaurant when in the area. The food has always been first rate. Good value and the most pleasant staff you could wish to find.

A trip into Somerset for wedding attire after a late breakfast and saturday lunch had vanished but what a pleasant surprise to find that a genius retailer had knocked a large doorway through from the ladies wedding fashion emporium to an excellent restaurant or visa versa.A perfect situation, while the better half acquired her dream outfit I enjoyed a first class cream tea with proper tea made with loose leaf tea and strainer and the most delicious scones freshly baked.A previous reviewer described this restaurant as old fashioned if that means excellent food and the,efficent service I received then we need more such establishments to frequent in our later years.A quality visit on both sides of the door.

A restaurant catering for an older clientele. However, it was very comfortable place and the food together with the service was excellent. Quality of the food was the best. Menu not adventurous, but then I dont think the patrons go for that!

Had a meal here on the17th November01934 2012 and found it to be friendly and comfortable. There is a good menu and all food was reasonably priced. The sevice was quick and the food piping hot. A return visit while we are here is definatly a must for us.

We live in the village and use this restaurant frequently both as a couple and with friends and family. We are never disappointed. Excellent value and friendly service. All food home cooked and sourced locally whenever possible.

The Dining Room is a very cosy family run restaurant that serves excellent traditional English cuisine in very pleasant surroundings. Only open in the evenings on special occassions they are however open daily for home cooked lunches, snacks, teas & coffees and are extremely popular. We booked early for a special Jubilee Lunch with live music accompaniment and it was fully booked. Very friendly prompt service with a great selection of traditional starters and main courses, Spam fritter starter (for the Jubilee only I guess) popular and excellent as were our other dishes. Excellent pork, lamb and fish dishes with all the extras and lovely hot fresh vegetables. Knickerbocker glory dessert was great and fresh strawberries with clotted cream too & coffee to finish with. At £25/head (including a Pimms on arrival) excellent value. If you like good traditional English cuisine then the Dining Room is a great place for lunch - highly recommended - we will go again soon.
