The Foxy Bean Cafe in Sedgemoor

Went with my husband and daughter, on more than one occasion to this little café A true Gem, staff are always very helpful and cheerful, The cakes are amazing, I have tried to resist but find them too tempting, and unlike some cakes that look lovely but taste is disappointing, these are gorgeous in looks and taste, last time myself and daughter tried the courgette and lime, while my husband had coffee and walnut, both were very tasty, along with an unusual but delicious Mumbai chai, highly recommended. All in all a very nice eating experience with the backdrop of surrounding woodland, and stream that runs past.

Lovely coffee, home made cake and a lot more. I cycled there and had an irreparable puncture. Asked the lovely Becks for a lift to the pub and she very kindly took me all the way there, so kind and a real pleasure to find kindness like that!!

Ok so £5 for a bacon muffin which was pre made then put in microwave- not good it was one piece of bacon had to pull the uncrispy fat off. Wish I’d asked for money back!

Hidden gem of a cafe tucked away. Went here a few days on the bounce whilst working locally and it is just a lovely spot to spend some time. Sausage rolls are the best I’ve ever had. It is expensive though.

Arrived famished half way through a walk around the area. Superb little place with bountiful cakes, drinks and a few savouries. Husband chose the bacon muffin, which hit the spot. I had the gorgeous sausage roll with chutney. Just perfect. The cakes were very lovely and generous slices too! Nice choice of drinks, and suitably refreshed we hit the trail again. Lovely friendly lady served us, and the toilets were nice and clean. Little gem of a place, worth searching out.

I’m sure not many step off a Belfast flight & head straight to the Foxy Bean for brunch - in fact not on our radar picking up the hire car in Bristol but there’s the joy of Trip Advisor for you ! What a find off the beaten track - great food & lovely staff. Well worth the detour to South Cornwall ♥️

Nice selection of home made savoury vegan choices. Also great cakesTake away food (or to eat outsise) served in paper containers and with wooden disposable cutlery - no styrofoam or plastic knives & forks in sightLovely setting by the streamService a little bit slow but it was reasonably busy - otherwise it would have been a ficve rating :-)

Lot's of homemade dishes. Frittatas were great. Pretty setting in a farm by a mill stream. Busy at weekends as it's the only place around but lovely during the week when we went.

We had sausage rolls, then cake and coffee. Fabulous quality, service, and location. Friends of ours had highly recommended this place and it exceeded expectations - and was a much needed respite after our trek.

We both had a coffee and a piece of cake. My husband had a large piece as it was the last portion (although it was slightly dry) and I had the chocolate brownie. The brownie was slightly weird in that it had lumps of white chocolate in it. We both liked our coffees it this lovely setting.

Average food, no service and portaloo for facilities!!!!! Handy for walkers, that’s about all you can say about this rip-off place!

We visited here for the first time today after a short walk round Great Wood. A fantastic setting, great choice of well-prepared food and drinks and quick polite service. What's not to love. Ignore the picky reviewers (yes the loo is a portaloo, but it was clean and functional) and some of the items on the menu weren't available. But forget that and enjoy the superb sausage roll and magnificent milk shake.

Sweet enough cafe but do not rely on their website; most of their dishes are no longer available! Sausage rolls and soup ok. Loo is a mobile blue site box in the yard... they could do SO MUCH better!!! Still; a handy place for tea and cake! I won’t go back.

Visited today, 17/3/21, with my Coeliac family and enjoyed hot drinks to go with Gluten free Lemon cookies, Coconut cake and Date & Walnut slice. Good surroundings and happy staff. Cost £21 which I thought OK for good quality and service in a rural setting. We will return :-)

We stumbled on The Foxy Bean whilst out rambling around Great Wood. What a great little place! The sweet potato, peanut butter and kale soup was possibly the best soup ever. Served in a cardboard eco-friendly pot, for a very reasonable price.....what’s not to like?!? We will definitely be back....with friends (when COVID rules allow).

The critical reviews for The Foxy Bean are obviously from picky, unrealistic people who would not be happy anywhere. What a delight this place is. After emerging from a lovely walk in Great Wood we came across this little gem in the middle of nowhere. Who would ever have thought it? A charming Iittle rural cafe in idyllic surroundings. While the menu may not be huge (come on, it’s a small business in a barn!) the offerings are original, tasty and high quality.

We've been coming here for quite a while. Just so grateful they have been open during this pandemic...Such a great selection of Cakes and savouries..Just love their Sausage Rolls ..best I've ever tasted...We keep coming back because their so friendly, the location, and quality of Food. Very addictive.. Will look forward to when they completely reopen one Day.

In an excellent location next to Greatwood. Food OK but rather expensive even taking into account the the remote location. Would not have recognised the coffee as coffee if I'd been blindfolded. Keen to revisit other cafes in similar locations but nothing in the Foxy Bean to encourage me to return to it. Next time we'll bring our own sandwiches, home made cake and a flask and save ourselves £15+.

Amazing spiced peanut butter soup (recipe still secret) and coffee/atmosphere like a NZ cafe. Welcoming and friendly staff. Definitely go back and take the full rabble/kids next time.

Lovely food and drink, and the most friendly staff, all in a beautiful location at the foot of the qua rock hills.

Just love this place.Always great freshly prepared food with Vegan and Vegetarian options.Animal friendly, the even have an enclosed area to park your horse , pony or donkey - Love it!Whenever we have visitors we always take them here as it has never disappointed.

Have been to this cafe serveral times,and always enjoy it. The coffee and cakes are very good in fact all the food is good. A bit expensive but worth it. My one down side was when l went Friday l was looking for some lunch without any carbs, unfortunately there wasn't anything l could have not even salad or fruit was advailible,very disappointed. The rest of the family enjoyed their lunch though.

On my last visit, the Foxy Bean only offered outside seating or take-away service but the food there is excellent. It's proper home-made fayre and of very good quality. Hopefully as the Covid restrictions relax, they will re-open the inside table space. Well worth a visit.

£22 for 4 sausage rolls and a little relish is a complete rip off. I'd be more forgiving if it came with a drink, but it doesn't. Its not even as if they are big, because they are not, they are just a different shape. I'm all for supporting local businesses, but not at any cost.Been twice,first time was for a cold cup of coffee, second time for this. Won't be going back again!

The recommendation to have lunch at this cafe was well worth finding it and we all had lovely food followed by amazing cakes. Yummy.

Visited today with a friend and my 6 month old, what a fab little place! The staff/owners are lovely, friendly and sooo helpful! The food was beautiful, we had the sausage roll! Tasty, warm and great salad dressing! And a big slab of chocolate cake, delicious! There’s high chairs for little ones as well as a little area outside for older kids to play! I imagine it’s great in the summer as there is outside seating! And we took a little walk around, which was pram accessible, although a little bumpy! Dog friendly, horse friendly, just generally friendly! Can’t wait to go back and try some more homemade goodies!

Wow! They really know how to bake cakes. Not sickly sweet and with so much flavour. Try the GF Polenta cake, it's amazing. Love that there's a horse tie up too. Hope to return one day with my horse.

Fabulous cafe, lovely homemade cakes, beautiful smoothies and warm, comfortable cafe. Staff very friendly. Wood burning stove and leather sofas a real treat! Dog friendly and a brilliant area outside for children. Plenty of parking.

What a fabulous, friendly place. Home made cakes, the humming bird cake was delicious. There were so many to try. This was a very busy place, people coming and going the whole time we were there. Will definitely be returning.

Just had a coffee here, lovely coffee, great atmosphere and the owners know what customer service. It always good to visit somewhere individual, quirky and where you get great service. All at FBC.

Nice cafe with lots of charm and great cakes and coffee. Lots of parking in theory although when we went the cars were parked all over the place which made it more difficult. Very friendly staff and plenty of seating

Great coffee and range of beverages. Lovely food. Fabulous setting on a working farm. Oh! And a big settee and a log burner for those cold wet days

Great coffee, great food, in a great location. We always enjoy going there as do many others. Recommended to all.

hard not to agree with all the nice things we visited twice over the weekend first after a walk and then I rode there from Bridgwater ideal location for bike riders in the quantocks, just a bit surprised you don't do a bit of advertising on local cycling facebook groups etc ! lovely location but sometimes that isn't matched by nice staff and food and drink but in this case you get all three !

Stopped off after a long dog walk , excellent food , good menu , amazing cakes and very friendly staff , seating inside and out and dog friendly

This is a fantastic find in the Quontocks. Fab location, lovely home made cakes and delicious coffee. Definitely worth a visit.

Welcoming atmosphere-cheery staff-speedy service with a smile and great menu Bustling with families and couples,walkers and just those in search of a yummy cake or two

Following a walk in the Quantocks this is a perfect spot for something to eat. We've visited a few times and had vegan, vegetarian and meat eaters in our group and all were catered for. It offers a variety of toasted sandwiches and light lunches and the best choice of cakes, especially for vegans. It was busy the day we went during school holidays, but we still managed to find somewhere to sit. Just lovely.

The cafe is a nice surprise to find located in a sparsely populate forested valley of the Quantock Hills. It serves delicious snacks and cakes to go with the wide range of hot and cold drinks available. It serves as a good watering hole for cyclists, hikers and visitors to the forest as well as being a pleasant location in the country to drive out to, take the kids, even for those not intending to walk or explore the surrounding forest or hills.

Quintessentially British. Ideal little lunch trip or stop for a bite to eat or drink. Plenty of dog walks and bike rides nearby. Smoothies and home made sausage roll were great and service is excellent.

What a lovely find,l hadn't been for a long time and didn't know about this cafe. Lovely setting, lovely food, excellent coffee ,nice friendly people. Very good for children as well ,well worth a visit.

We went for a cream tea. It was very tasty lots of cream & jam. Good size of tea pot. There was a good choice of other cakes, cookies. Pennies. Lots of choice of different coffee & tea. Seating indoors & out. You can even ride your horse there & tether it & relax over a bucket of oats!!

into a superb café, far from the madding crowd. Having known Adscombe Farm for longer than I care to recall, I would never have thought a cafe would be a goer here. What a vision to establish such a quirky establishment tho' - quality will out; well worth seeking, you will not be disappointed, such an interesting menu - choosing will be the first hurdle. Will return for a more substantial repast I hope!

We stopped by yesterday and received a very warm welcome from the super friendly and helpful staff. We enjoyed the amazing homemade cakes with a coffee after our long drive and the place has a nice atmosphere. The restroom was super clean too for a busy establishment. Also, there's a stream right outside the cafe which the kids were enjoying paddling in. Highly recommended.

For a cafe to survive in the middle of nowhere it's got to be good and... Foxy Beam most certainly is.

The Foxy Bean staff have all been really supportive as we planned a function at Great wood and they provided the delicious samosa's , fritattta's and sausage rolls. Hugely enjoyed by all our guests and diets accommodated. Thank you

Set in the heart of the Quantock Hills, a good range of home cooked food. and dog-friendly. Well worth a vist.

After a long walk in Ranscombe this is exactly what my mum and I wanted. Great homemade treats in a beautiful conversion.

We are blessed in the UK with many fine tea shops. This is surely one of if not the best. Ideal for dog walkers hikers mountain bikers horse riders folks with young active children and anyone looking for a quality cuppa in a lovely surrounding. Food is generous and very high quality and was my pot of tea.There's a barn where small children can run around while you enjoy a quiet tea, and a small enclosed paddock for horses, with a set of steps to remount if you've over indulged! Every detail has been given careful thought and is clearly run to perfection. Thank you , I look forward to seeing you again.

Great to have this venue in the hills. Perfect for post dog walk treat. The cakes are super. All food home made. Friendly owners. Would recommend

Called in after walking the dogs. Awesome array and choice of cakes. Wonderful coffee. Great service. Tried to visit in Winter and found it closed. Worth the wait! It doesn’t disappoint.

Walked in thinking it would be a little cafe for a pot of tea but the food all looked amazing, the staff were friendly and we could take the dog in, we had drinks and cakes all was delicious. It was clean and synthetically decorated. Loved the whole experience and looking forward to going back.

Excellent service, food and coffee. Great place after walk in the woodshed sat by the stream in the sun.

Stopped for tea and something to eat.

Have been coming to the Foxy Bean since it opened and it gets better and better. The coffee is great and the cakes are delicious, it becomes difficult to have just one. It's a lovely place to start exploring the great wood or to stop off after a cycle ride for a light lunch.

Food fantastic, wonderful ambience , reasonable prices and in the perfect position. Well worth a visit. Closed Monday and Tuesday except bank holidays.

Loved this place on the edge of Greatwood in the Quantocks. Great place to refuel at the end of a walk. Will definitely be back to try more of their interesting food

We've just enjoyed, coffee, home made giant sausage role and green salad at the Foxy Bean. Nice staff, clean surroundings and good food. I live the little creative touches with the decor.

A terrific place at the foot of the Quantocks in Adscombe. Great for walkers. Cakes and coffee were great and you could sit outside or in

Great Expectations in the Great Wood, easily exceeded and will return. Can’t wait for the Summer Friday night hog roasts and the jazz band in the yard !! Break out the fairy lights

Sweet cafe in a lovely setting! The decor inside is great and has a healthy choice of dishes, which it great to see. (Including fresh smoothies!) finished off with a piece of delicious cake ... amazing selection and loved the flavour choice

I am a carer and today we decided to bring the guys we look after who have Down syndrome to this cafe, everyone there was friendly and patient, the guys loved to see all of the dogs and interact with other customers, we had a lovely afternoon and enjoyed some yummy cakes

The perfect spot for a snack after a walk on the Quantock Hills. The welcome was friendly, even for our Border Collie which was actually born in the barn beyond the car park! Inside the decor is rustic and fascinating. Take a look at the lampshades. The food was a good range of cakes and savouries. We went for the bacon, leek and something else frattitas (which I'd never heard of but its like a quiche with no pastry). Really excellent and we are looking for an excuse to go again.

Definitely worth a visit.Great food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff... Dog friendly. I'm sure there would be more reviews if people wanted to share it!

I’ve just had a really tasty toasted sandwich of bacon & brie and very welcome coffee. Very friendly staff and there is a great selection of cakes,sandwiches and frittata.

Really liked this place , great Coffee and a nice selection of Cakes....Great to visit before or after a walk in the Quantocks...Probably the best location they could have put a Cafe on the Road to the Hills...

I went to the Foxy Bean on Thursday afternoon for some lunch with my aunty and nieces. It had snowed lightly the night before and it made the place look even more magical than it already did!

I went to the Foxy Bean with my little girl who has quite a few dietary restrictions - they were all catered for perfectly and she was even able to have a gluten and dairy free cookie. The coffee is incredible and the coffee shop has a wonderful atmosphere. The kids play area outside meant that I could enjoy my coffee while my daughter played with the other children. I highly recommend it! We followed up our visit with a walk around Great Wood.

I know, let’s open a café nowhere near a main road, down single track lanes and just before the tarmac road stops. Obviously a sensible idea? No? Well, it could have been a disaster obviously. Granted there is no shortage of walkers around and the farm house next to The Foxy Bean is by a babbling brook, but indifferent service, high prices and poor food could still have ensured a financial disaster. Fortunately the owners provide gorgeous home cooked food, heat salads, delightful service and sensible prices. Local artists display their work ( thankfully few cows faces) and even crates have been decorated to provide lampshades!

Best brownies in the world!!!! Amazing place, perfect for walkers and cyclists, a wide selection of locally produced cakes and toasties, will go again!!

My daughter in law found this little cafe and recommended it. Today I tried it, and the coffee and walnut cake, and the carrot cake. Both were delicious, home made and the perfect pairing with good coffee.

Great little cafe/restaurant in ideal location. Superb menu, which includes veggie & vegan options. Great play 'barn' area for the kids and outside seating area. Stunning decor too! Go find it !

We heard about “Foxy bean” through a friend and knowing how I love cake, my wife n kids took me for my birthday in November. We walked up an appitite and entered the welcoming cafe drenched and muddy. We were looking at an Aladins cave of cakes, cookies, teas, coffees and toasties. The staff are very friendly and very chatty. The food is out of this world, so much so that 3 weeks later I did a 12 mile round trip over the quantock hills to go for a coffee and cake.

We have been visiting Great Wood for years and it always lacked somewhere for a drink and a snack so the Foxy Bean could not be better placed and it is a real bonus that it’s a little gem with fabulous toasties and cakes, loved the mulled wine and chocolate cake. Very friendly and welcoming with quirky decor, a refreshing change from the big chain coffee shops. We’ll be regular visitors

Situated by the edge of Great Wood this cafe is a gem. A wide selection of food, fresh and reasonable prices. Popped in for brunch and was welcomed to a roaring log fire and delish hot food. Staff are super friendly who are happy to accommodate muddy mountain bikers and well behaved dogs. Go take a visit.

This place is my idea of heaven, what more could you want after a good walk in the great woods than a lovely cup of tea and a homemade cake. The setting is perfect, the homemade cakes are to die for, I really like the plum cake with crumble topping, so nice to also get more than one cup of tea out of a pot. It’s got to the point that I would happily miss the walk and just go for a cup of tea, but due to rehab I must at least justify all the tea and cake with exercise. Quite like the loyalty card system, I think I only my third card already.

The Foxy Bean Cafe is set in a very rural location with a stream running down the side of the cafe, outdoor seating (To enjoy the wonderful countryside views) and and cosy inside (Including a couple of sofas). Although only started operating this summer, the Foxy Bean has become a firm favourite, the staff are friendly, the cakes lovely and the toasted sandwiches very tasty. We have also enjoyed the Coffee, Tea, Milkshakes and smoothies - The WiFi (free) is very useful and there is a play barn for young children and toilet facilities.

Lovely position ,not far from Great wood. Friendly for dogs and sprogs. Great for walkers ,cyclists, horse back

Great coffee, smoothies, food, ambiance and hosts Highly recommend Bike, family etc friendly, indoor and out seating areas, parking 😀

A warm welcome awaited us after walks in Ramscombe with the children. stream for children to play in sunny days while we sipped coffee and munched cake - yum. A barn for playing in on wet days. children welcome in the cafe too. we wish them great success and will be back.

very good coffee and cakes are scrummy its amazing just sat in the middle of nowhere really and people just seem to appear

Stopped off for coffee and cake after a walk in the Great Wood. Staff very friendly and good choice of cakes and freshly made sandwiches. Inside area including toilets were spotless and there is a lovely outside area.

We chanced upon this little gem and what a find! Recently opened and tastefully done, great coffee, cakes and sandwiches, catering for the whole family. There is a little stream running alongside the cafe our kids loved playing in and it’s dog friendly. The staff are very friendly and the whole set up is very laid back, with plenty of space outside for the kids to let off steam or parking up your bike or horse! Five stars for Foxy!

Great visit, excellent atmosphere, divine cappuccino well made, and superb carrot cake. Definitely recommended.

This was a completely unexpected find as we drove to drop our daughter off at a nearby Great Wood Camp. A very welcome (huge!!) pot of tea after a 4 hour drive, and the children enjoyed lovely juices...the rhubarb and apple was a definite favourite! It was a bit over-priced, but a lovely venture and some very appetising-looking food too. We hope that you do really well!

Delightful little cafe at the foot of the Quantock hills. Beautiful location tastefully done. Pop in coffee and cake or lunch. Friendly staff. 4 legged friends welcome 😊 We will be back!!!!

Was staying at Moorhouse campsite and had seen this place recommend on their FB page. We mapped a cycle route on the quieter roads to this place. What a great find. Had toasties and latte and then another because the first one was so nice. Really enjoyed our cycle break here. Just had a real nice feel to the place. Staff were very welcoming and that added to the experience. Will be back on our next visit.
