The Hobbs Boat in Sedgemoor

We go every friday for over a year now with my grandparents and the staff are always so friendly, service is always great and the food for the price is really good with lots of choice. Highly recommend.

Food was good but unwashed cutlery and very poor service and hardly any sweets

Very attentive staff and good food

Very decent pub/ restaurant on the main road from Weston super Mare to Bridgwater. Very friendly service and enthusiastic clientele who all looked like they were enjoying their food, and that's a good sign. Only quibble is lots of beer taps with nothing connected to them, only one ale being available when we visited.

Always good food and friendly staff

Always a lovely breakfast.. head in this year for our xmas dinner 🍽 😋

Always good food ,great staff and warm welcome

Good choice of food options available. Service at breakfast time was slow. Apparently there was confusion over the table numbers and my food took forever to arrive (after I complained).

Went to The Hobbs Boat for dinner on Saturday 5th and was served by Michael. We arrived earlier than our reservation but as it was quiet they accommodated our early arrival which was appreciated. Michael really made the experience wonderful- very attentive service with exceptional wit and humour. Next time I’m down the way I’d be sure to pop by again as the food was great.

Great staff. Food, friendly above and beyond for my birthday tea tonight with the girls

Amazing experience funny waiters quick service

Really nice staff and really good food very friendly and good service

Absolutely great staff great food lovely friendly atmosphere come most Sundays for a roast good value for money even booked for Christmas Day and looking forward to it

Excellent meal, service and atmosphere. servers Mike and Maisie friendly and polite. Have already booked for Xmas day

What a great place! Always a quick and friendly service with a smile. We were lucky enough to have Maisie as our server the last couple of times who really added to our experience! Thanks guys!

Was met at the door by Mike and Maisie and they were absolutely amazing! Food was really good! (steak was cooked perfectly!) Nothing is too much for them. They really do go above and beyond. 😂 Have also booked for Christmas day. Atmosphere is lovely and looking forward to our next visit. 😍

This is the second time we have visited this area stayed at premier inn next door.the food here is excellent, service is superb with Mike and rest of team giving their all,friendly and amenable,entertaining. Would highly recommend visiting if your in the area.

This was my first time to hobs boat and was greeted by a very friendly waitress called Maisie who was an absolute delight and then mike the manager who then came over to ask if we were happy with everything to which we were. I would definitely come back when next in the area as the food was very enjoyable and well cooked.

Visited on a Saturday night. Thoroughly enjoyed it. It’s our favourite place in Weston for a family meal. The staff are so lovely and friendly, and nothing is too much trouble. The steak was absolutely delicious and it is all very reasonably priced. There is a nice atmosphere as it has a proper restaurant feel but casual at the same time. It’s nice there is ample parking so close by and it’s all on the flat for those less abled.

Was very skeptical about coming here as we saw a bag of mixed reviews but we was not disappointed. Brilliant service from Ross. Me and my mom had a burger, my dad went for a steak and there was no complaints! Very enjoyable. Thanks for making our half way stop to Cornwall a delight!

Best breakfast in Weston We were served by Lexey today who was polite and courteous - a real asset to the company.

Nice place to eat . Well served by Ross B Steak rather tough rest of food ok

I normally like this place however lately it seems to be going down hill i know places change their menus but this place has knocked off 2 desserts a start and a drink i have so i can no longer buya starter or a dessert i like and the portions have also gotten really small i mean my freind ordered a smothered chicken which theyve had beforeand it was great but now it was so small it was barely noticeable! Plus theyre 'vegetarian/vegan' range is also very limited like one item per section of the menu, is that it? Dont know if theyre losing money or something but it seems to be one sacrifice after another which is a shame coz i used to love coming here but now i dont think i can order anything i like ciz of limitations but yeah thats my review sorry hobbs boat but youve lost me as a customer. 😔

Don't sell Thatchers, really? Food was ok

Good food! Fast, friendly, and efficient service. Cost effective, too!

We have been regulars here for a while, but a total shambles this morning. After 30 minutes, our order was taken (table of 3, 2 adults and a child). They brought out our sons order, then we waited for our food another half hour. Upon asking where our food was, they told us the order was just for a child??? Won't be returning and will be telling everyone we know not to go there again.

We went and booked a table for the evening for a table of 4. We booked the table at lunch time we had a drink and the guy gave us a menu to see what they had on in the evening. Watched him book the table on the computer 6pm on 22nd August 2024. We arrived at our scheduled time to then be told we hadn’t booked and the guy said I never booked you in so you are not getting a table. He was very rude and disrespectful to my family. I would never return to this establishment ever again even the gentleman behind us walked out because of how we was treated. I do not recommend this place to anyone.

Return visit after our last visit was a year ago when we were let down after another booking elsewhere had a power cut and closed their kitchen so we booked here online 20 minutes before we arrived with family of 6 . We were greeted politely with warm smiles on our arrival and shown to our table and given our menus straight away. It did take a while for our drinks order to be taken, and i did get up and go to the bar to be told table service only ! I wanted some drinks while we looked at the menu, but we had to wait, and they took our drinks order when they came to take our food order, which was a bit of a wait ... Food and drinks were good but did take a while to arrive, but there were a few tables of diners waiting for their orders. On the whole we had a good meal, perfectly cooked and very tasty. We had a "meerkat meals" discount code, so our meal was excellent value. The pub , a Whitbread Inn , is warm and inviting right next to a premier Inn rooms. There is plenty of parking and some blue badge spaces out front. The toilets were good and well signposted. We did all enjoy our meal and will call again when we are next in the area.

Slow service had to ask for drinks twice, meal was ok but desert were a long wait only two waiters working during a busy evening, would not go back

Food was alright, prices were reasonable. Friendly staff

Cara and Lex were really lovely and really made my experience with this place! Really worth the visit

Nice pub, good service but the food is terrible, if I wasn't so hungry I would of walked out, I'm not fussy by any means but the food here was a joke, bad quality and small portions. AVOID!!!!!

Fantastic food, and at a very reasonable price, also very friendly staff

Lovely service from Millie and food.

Thank you, Mike, for your welcoming and friendly service. My partner and I thought the food was delicious, with the lunch menu being tasty and cheap!

A thoroughly enjoyable experience. The staff are friendly, helpful and absolutely brilliant. The food tastes great. Good sized portions. Highly recommended.

Had a table booked but was turned away due to being full so completely pointless booking had too leave with two hungry little girls very disappointed.

Great service by friendly staff and a nice lunch venue. The menu is decent with plenty of options and a good kids menu available as well

Found the meal deal that came with my hotel stay great value for money (though my company did pay for it). The mixed grill was a good proportion and the gammon even had a bit of crackling on it that was done just right. The staff was very friendly. I would like to be able to pop their names down to praise their good work, especially considering the heat, but I think all the staff helped at one point. The young lady being trained was polite and friendly, following the lead of the gentleman showing her the ropes.

We followed previous reviews and went for Sunday lunch. Upon arrival we were rudely told they did not open for 15 minutes. We waited outside. We then ordered two Sunday roasts and a mixed grill. Watch out for the menu we were charged the price of the roast plus £1.50 each for three extra meats, but I only had similar portions to the others in our party. They forgot to bring one of the extra meats, As they also did with the other two tables who ordered at the same time. Overall the meat was cold, the potatoes were cool and cooked from frozen. The chicken on the mixed grill was burnt. A very poor Sunday roast.

Nice place and must say very friendly and welcoming staff. However the food could do better. I had the gammon and the portion was very small for what you pay could do with a few more chips as wasn’t many. Nice location and nice inside clean and presentable.

Five of us went lunchtime yesterday had a issue booking but when we got there a table was available. Sloppy service so long winded dirty stick table and chips on our meals were terrible. We were going to have dessert but due to poor service decided to leave early. We are regularly but will think twice about going again unless there's a improvement. Being a whitbread manager myself in the past I would be ashamed to have this going on in my establishment. Very disappointed

Have gone there for years food got worse today awful definitely will not go back there again, over an hour to wait for food my dog would have turned its nose up at they company are ripping people off don't believe me try it

Good offers on food...maybe not heat the sauces for so long so they come out dry. Service a bit slow to wait for drinks and food. Staff friendly.

The service was the only positive thing about our visit. We visited on Father's day so we were aware that it may have been a wait for food. However, we waited almost an hour and most of the food was overcooked. The best way I can describe it was that it felt like the chef had lost the love for cooking. On top of that, it was so busy that it felt very close and claustrophobic. We have visited many times but most recently it has been awful.

Service by an older gentleman whose name now eludes me was stellar. The food was as to be expected from the price range (the steak was quite gristly but otherwise cooked well) Atmosphere was nothing special but also as to be expected.

Very disappointing visit. Service slow. Quality of food was poor, giving the impression that much of it was reheated. Also wasn't as described in the menu with for instance brioche substituted with plain bread, missing salsa. Worst meal of our week. Cannot recommend.

We had the early bird menu with added starter. Superb value for money. Great service fron the staff. A great place to stop enroute home from holiday.

Food fantastic, staff efficient and friendly and helpful, especially Mike who was very nice and couldn't do enough for you looked after us made sure we were happy.

Good food, could do with more staff to improve service

Excellent food and service and staff were super lovely. Milly B was amazing shoutout to her and the fussy food club. Also Mike was great too!

Had an amazing meal here for a friend's birthday. Awesome place

Lovely food and service, only problem was going for tea at 5pm on father's day to be told there is no roast dinners left. You know your going to be busy on a day like that so order more food

Good food, good value good ambiance

Awful fish pie don't bother I was sick when I came home. I should of chosen a burger.

Do more choice for gluten and dairy-free puddings

Waiting staff and management team really helpful.

Called in on the off chance for a table for 4. Greeted by the manager who showed us to our table. Seemed very quiet for a Bank holiday Monday, but over heard that they are fully booked. Food was very good and arrived hot. Couldn't decide between two puddings so the manager said he would surprise me. Over all a nice pleasant pub.

Got told they were fully booked at 5pm. Place was empty! Their first available table booking was after 7pm. Not going to drink in an empty pub for 2 hours so that I can eat later.

Great atmosphere great food and drink

We keep coming back to this restaurant; the staff know us well, and we have always had great service. The food is well cooked and presented; I remember that we've ever had an unsatisfactory experience. However, it would be nice to see some more variety in the menu, although we do enjoy the various dishes. The restaurant is far enough outside of town that it doesn't get over busy, but close enough that we can suddenly drop by for lunch or dinner if we choose.

one of the best spots to do shrooms i thought i was at the chard!!!

Early lunch with daughter. Tasty food, lovely quick service. Lots more diners by the time we left.

I stayed in premier inn all week so had 5 x meals. The food was great it’s a quiet pub so not waiting long for meals and not a long wait between meals ie starter to main. The staff can’t do enough Mazie Mike and David great bar staff make you feel welcome! Would recommend completely

Foods hit & miss as its a chain pub always used to be boil in the bag food

Great place and friendly service. Very accommodating, 2 people in our party had a dairy intolerance which was no issue, reassured that the food would be kept separate. Gave a 4 for food, everything was lovely. 6 out of 7 meals no issues whatsoever. One person had ribs and chicken which was nice but could tell chicken was processed with lots of additional water rather than chicken breast. Overall we will visit again 😀

Very friendly, helpful staff. Nice atmosphere and decor. Would highly recommend. The food was cooked perfectly, very tasty. Fast service.

Had a lovely lunchtime meal with family.

Very lacking on vegetarian options, went lunchtime and decided to take advantage of the lunchtime offer which had many options if you're a meat eater but just the one a pie if you wanted vegetarian. Whole place could really do with an overall. Broken chairs, dusty. Just overall grubby.

Great deal any time of the day. Very good selection and fresh food for breakfast. Can't beat 2x mains deals on lunch with lunch menu offers either including starter or dessert for a superb deal. The evening menu or main menu has a great selection too. Deffo will be back hidden gem of Lympsham

Breakfast is hit and miss with quality and wait times, lunch is normally very good though. I come here quite often with family and friends and this was the first time I've felt reluctant to come back. 40 minute wait for food when other tables around had eaten and been cleared away, no communication as to wait times, food eventually arrived lukewarm and overcooked. Perhaps could chalk it up to a busy/bad day, but management took no responsibility, blamed other members of staff (who we had no issue with), and was argumentative and repetitive when asked for a solution, after waiting 5 minutes for somebody to search the whole restaurant to find him. Having worked in the food industry myself, I understand that some things are out of control and cannot be helped. However, as a manager you have a responsibility towards your customer's experience and this was very disappointing. We received compensation by way of paying for the continental breakfasts instead of the full ones, so about £3 each off, which was suggested by us when the manager could not come up with anything.

Michael runs a tight ship. Been a few times now, really good food at more than decent prices.

Lovely place, food was great and staff very friendly :)

Fantastic service food and value for money I eouldcest here every night if I could

I have been coming here since moving to Somerset 6 years ago and never had any cause to complain until now, we booked a table for ourselves and friends. When we arrived we got told 'that's your table in the corner' we were not taken to our table, we were then asked if we wanted to order drinks, we asked for a drinks menu only to be told they hadn't got any. We ordered food and it arrived in good time, the staff were very pleasant. My friend had the curry which was awful, the sauce was so runny you could have sucked it through a straw and there was approx 3 pieces of chicken! We decided not to have dessert and were just sat drinking and chatting, at 9pm we were asked if we wanted anymore drinks before they shut the bar! I asked 'are you closing?' To which he replied 10pm, we felt pressured to drink up and leave. I've got to say I was extremely disappointed and sorry to say I will be thinking twice about coming back.

Lovely friendly staff, great food and reasonable price.

Warm welcome when we arrived, our waitress Cathy was friendly and helpful. Great food and good value for money. Excellent service.

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Had to send the steak back, as over cooked. Meal redelivered with correctly cooked steak and £10 knocked off the bill, as a gesture of good will. Fair play! Still not a great choice of vegetarian food though. Come on, be more imaginative!

Took my mum for a mother's day meal with my 2 children and although they were quite busy the staff were absolutely amazing especially our server Mazie and the host Mike both are exceptional and I can't thank them enough for making the evening so enjoyable. The food was beautiful well cook and nicely presented and the price was very reasonable I will certainly be returning.

Very pleasant pub, always a warm welcome. The food is excellent value for money, always worth checking on line for vouchers

Lovely food and staff. Second visit this week!

No real atmosphere in the place ,just felt like I was a parcel delivery man .

Would just like to say what a pleasant experience it was to come here and have a meal. Food was excellant and the staff were friendly and attentive. Well done to those in charge for a wonderful team. We will be back.

Really friendly staff and tasty ‘pub grub’

Friendly staff, everyone enjoyed their food. Most had a roast and said it was good. I had Fish Pie and thought that was good also.

One of the nicest Whitbread Inns I've visited, pleasant and with a great staff, always efficient, attentive and polite. The saver menu before 6pm is great value. New items on the main menu, it's of a much better standard now, a few steps up. I can highly recommend the 'Club Sandwich' as well as the latest Sunday Roasts! Drinx are of an average selection, (it is a Whitbread owned venue), and it would be much better if more ales or guest ales were available, especially considering their clientele, that said, it's not the worst thing going on in the world today!

I had dinner and breakfast here as part of my Premier Inn stay, and I would like to think of myself as a bit of a Premier Inn veteran as I use them a lot for work. This has by far been the best so far!! The food was great and service impeccable!! Thanks to all the team at The Hobbs Boat.

Family breakfast was really great value with a wide choice of breakfast options at a good price Clean and tidy and helpful staff

Amazing food . We will be back again soon.

A nice place to go if you just want a nice quiet meal. The waiting staff really look after you. The food is very good and reasonably priced. Do remember to book in the evenings as it gets very busy with guests from the adjoining hotel.

So this was a belated birthday treat for my husband , was really nice great food and really friendly atmosphere and staff .

Great breakfast - we had the unlimited breakfast for £9.99. Excellent full English plus all continental items included. Food was good quality and well cooked. Service with a smile and we felt welcome to stay and chat with no pressure to leave when breakfast service was over. We will definitely risk our waistlines and come again.

The food was very good. But what made our experience was the amazing service. The waitress was an older lady very friendly and attentive a credit to your company

We had a fantastic meal here. Excellent staff interaction. Highly recommended.

Food was good value for money. My daughter has food allergies and the staff were very careful to avoid cross contamination with her food. Our servers were great, fab with our kids and very attentive.

Always love a well cooked and presented breakfast here at the hobbs boat always cooked fresh and always presented well very tasty love visiting here regularly after finishing my night shift

Awesome food, Millie was friendly and welcoming. Great service. Michael greeted us and very pleasant and funny.

We booked a table for 19:15 but arrived about half an hour early and it wasn't an issue. We were greeted by a lovely smiling waitress called Millie who showed us to our table and took a drinks order from us. Let me just say that everything was amazing, to be honest! All the staff were happy, everyone's three course meal was beautiful, the grill items were perfectly cooked (and I like my steak rare/blue). I love a nice Guinness and that was a beautiful pint. The atmosphere was cheerful and relaxed, everything seemed to run like a well oiled machine, oh and there was a fantastic gentleman on the team too, and he was so happy (everyone was) and we had some great banter. One of the party lives in Weston Super Mare and all but one live in Devon, so we will most definitely be returning for our meet ups! This was a special night for us and you guys made it all the more enjoyable. Thank you ♥️

Very nice Sunday lunch. Lots of food and it was tasty.

Had a lovely meal as always. Great service from our waitress Milly and as always a warm welcome from Mike.
