The Litton in Mendip

We visited here with our 4 dogs (which are well behaved and sit under the table) for Sunday lunch. The atmosphere is lovely and it gives a really welcoming good feel. All of the staff were so friendly and helpful, the dog biscuits and water area is a great touch. The roast dinner was outstanding, we eat out a lot so we do say we’re possibly ‘food snobs’ but we were really impressed by this place! It gets the ‘best roast’ we’ve had. The vegetables, potatoes, meat was all delicious. We had pudding after, treacle sponge and brownie both were really good! Can’t wait to visit again.. highly recommend!

Great food, wonderful service and brilliant atmosphere. Enjiyed every minute of the meal. Thanks to all at The Litton.

Lovely indoor and outdoor space. Good choice of independent beers, well kept and a good choice of food. A great place for walking and cycling.

Lovely pub, great food and very friendly, helpful staff. Their Sunday roast is fabulous!

Can’t say enough about how nice this place is. Absolutely worth every penny. Rooms were brilliant. Nice comfy beds. Probably the best breakfast I’ve had at a BnB. Staff were more than helpful and went above and beyond. Food is absolutely gorgeous.

Excellent stay at the Litton. Rooms were lovely - very comfortable and well appointed, staff were great and the breakfast excellent. Highly recommended

Popped in for lunch 11/4/2024. The staff were lovely and friendly, meal was fantastic, and very good value. Cannot praise the place highly enough. I am trying to convince my larger family to meet up here for a meal, as I was so impressed.

Just inciredible. My goodness, the staff were so accommodating and friendly!!! They did absolutely everything the could to make us comfortable and will definitely be back soon.

Fab mid week meal, great food and service, thank you

My partner and I had the best meal we have had on our holiday in the Uk. The staff were very helpful and polite. We had tea and coffee to finish and the coffee is by far the best since leaving Australia. Highly recommend the Litton for an exceptional experience

Beautiful hotel. Fabulous staff. Delicious food. Such a lovely hotel in beautiful setting impeccable service from the team.

Lovely pub/restaurant. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We had a lovely lunch. We were there on a overcast day, but I could imagine sitting outside by the river would be a lovely thing to do when the weather is nice. I would definitely recommend.

Amazingly friendly staff made our stay a complete joy!

We had a fabulous time staying at the Litton. We were very well looked after by the very friendly staff. The room was very comfortable and laid out in a contemporary style. The dinner excellent as was the breakfast. Overall nothing to fault! We will go back again and hopefully soon!

We had a really lovely stay.. delicious food, great ambience, lovely staff and very comfy rooms ... Thank you will definitely be back ... Sam

Fantastic place to stay! Great rooms with every detail thought about. Lovely pub with great food…. And very friendly staff!

Lovely pub, especially in summer times

Very pleasant and professional place, food was decent but service is what made the experience great.

Delicious food, friendly staff and great ambience. We also stayed overnight and the room was clean and beautifully decorated.

This was our 2nd stay at the Litton & this time we brought friends. Again, it did not disappoint. Everything from food, service, atmosphere, was 1st class. The staff were as friendly & as helpful as they were on our first visit, so thank you.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant, incredible food, fantastic service, plenty of space for parking. There is the option to eat outside even in the colder month as heat lamps and blankets are provided under cocer or lots of room within the garden when we get the sunshine. Can't fault the Litton in any way, would highly recommend!

We stopped at The Litton as a party of 22 and four children, the place is beautiful and all the staff was absolutely amazing and made our stay outstanding, nothing was too much trouble and they made sure everything was sorted and organised. The food was very nice. Would highly recommend staying and eating here.

A beautiful pub with great food. Treat yourself. Lovely for Mother's Day too.

Not sure what has happened to the Litton, went to eat there a few years ago and it was quite good...now its very over-priced for what you get. I ordered a veggie burger which consisted of 1 miserable piece of lettuce, 1 tiny tomato and a cardboard tasting 'veggie/bean burger' in a basic bun. Thats it, no love given to this food at all, could easily be remedied with some decent fillings and not be so penny pinching! Chips had to be orerded as an extra and didn't come with the main. Disappointing.

Super evening watching the Rugby! Geat atmosphere supported by a greater team! The staff are the best around! 100% 👍

We had a wonderful stay at The Litton, staying 2 nights to celebrate my husband's birthday. The staff were always very friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. The dinner was delicious, not your usual gastropub food which was a real bonus and why we chose to stay there. Breakfast was also very good and so well presented. We would certainly recommend staying here!

I have definitely reviewed this place before but Google disagrees, so this is a re-review rather than an edit and addition. TLDR - this place is fantastic. It was five years ago when we came here and it still is now. It’s a proper pub in that the rooms and atmosphere is cosy and welcoming with portions and welcome being very generous , but it’s high quality in terms of the ingredients and quality of what is served. The value is also superb in terms of pricing considering how good the food is and the high quality drinks menu on offer. Fabulous to eat, drink or stay. We do recommend and we have returned.

Went just for drinks. Lovely looking menu with great sections for drinks and seating area for restaurant. Also has heated outdoor areas with blankets to stay warm. Great staff. Really nice place - would love to go back for food.

The menu offers some traditional food but also some more untypical meals, which was what we went for. Everything was delicious.

Came for dinner and drinks and was very pleased with the entire experience. Staff were wonderful, the food was delicious and the drinks were great too. Suggestions were made on improvements to certain drinks, and they were very well received.

Went for a weekend away with my wife. We didn't know what to expect as we picked farily randomly but I have to say the place is briliiant and the staff are even better. Its a proper olde worlde pub with wooden beams, stone walls, low ceilings. It has a several sitting areas including terrces and a whiskey bar. The food and drinks are very good, espectially the cocktails! The staff were so attentive, we chatted to Ollie at the bar for most of one eveneing as he made us our superb cocktails and on another evening when we couldn't get a taxi to another pub he dropped us off there! We stayed in a lovely large room with sofa bed if you needed it, it also had a private terrace (although you can see onto the terrace from the carpark). It's a great location for adventuring off into the Mendip hills. We had a lovely walk straight from the pub. Aboslutely recommend.

On Saturday due to the government restrictions we had the pleasure of enjoying the Litton To Go Menu. A delightful and flavoursome Shawarma plus two fabulous fish and chips. Impeccable service as ever. Five stars.

We twice met with friends her, staying the night and dining.The staff are really friendly, the dining area intersetingThe food is good, we made the mistake of having lunch and picking interesting things only to find teh same menu for dinnerThe second time we were more careful to stick to snacks at lunchThe rooms are lovely The only downside was that the accommodation is priceyThe breakfast is very good

We met as a group of five for a much needed girls night out, had delicious food (I highly recommend the pheasant!), a few drinks and experienced excellent service. The Covid measures are all well carried out and we all felt very safe. Will definitely be back!

As we love this restaurant my son and daughter in law took us for Sunday lunch. The service is wonderful and our waiter Richard was very helpful even when one of our mains went missing. This was very quickly resolved and with added meat. The menu has a good selection; something for everyone. If you are going for the 3 meat Sunday lunch beware it is huge. I just love the lamb. As there are now less tables obviously book early this restaurant is very popular.

We booked into the Litton on a local friend's recommendation. It is a restaurant with rooms ( a self styled "Boutique hotel" - a term which usually makes me cringe). The room with King size bed way comfortable and quiet, a little overpriced for the facilities and size, but there are only 8 rooms, and the alternative is a fair drive home. The restaurant is definitely worth it, Excellent, friendly service and a reasonable choice of well cooked, locally sourced produce.

We planned to meet here last night for a drink but changed our mind and wanted food, and despite a very busy (socially distanced) pub we were found a table to dine. Everything from the decor, ambience, food, hand gel, service were just lovely. Most of all though the measures taken to make us feel Covid secure were the best I have seen. We will be back many times and are delighted to have found this gem.

We have been to this pub a couple of times, but never eaten here until today. Staff were really friendly on arrival, even though they were very busy on a lovely sunny day. They let us find our own table outside and were well organised for covid without making you feel uncomfortable. We ordered starters to share and we all had roasts for our main. The roast was lovely, really fresh and the quality of the produce they use was evident. Really enjoyed the atmosphere, very relaxed and will deffo come back for food again.

Having tried another Gastro Pub only days before where the food was average, the service poor and Covid protocol close to non existent we frankly booked the Litton with tentative to low expectations.Thankfully how wrong we were. The service was prompt,attentive and pleasant. The food was exceptional, but most importantly we felt safe with table service only and well thought out Covid procedures. Sadly we were only in the area for a week otherwise this would be our go to pub/restaurant of choice.

Walked to The Litton for breakfast this morning, as we did last Sunday and have often done before without booking. It's always been lovely. This morning we were turned away and not even offered coffee because we hadn't booked. Very disappointed! For local friends who also do this and drop in for coffee, we need some clarity please! Are you now only serving breakfast to those who have booked rooms, because there were a lot of empty tables this morning. Do we also have to book for coffee? Hope you can explain this. Thank you.

We booked a table for 2, on a Sunday lunchtime, in advance, providing all necessary contact details. The pub has plenty of hand sanitiser and a strict one-way system to allow social distancing. We had a table outside, were served swiftly with delicious roasts and paid easily there. An easy and thoroughly enjoyable experience!

Very disappointing visit Had to wipe clean chair before sitting down. Food wasn't good, undercooked chips and the burger bun was more like cake than bread, burger also very dry. Won't be back for a while

We visited twice recently while on holiday in the area both times on a Tuesday. It’s a pretty pub and we felt safe and distanced inside. The first visit was great and the food delicious. The second visit was stillgood but we waited an hour for food and that was a 17.30 booking so we thought slightly ahead of peak dinner time. It’s possible that this was in part due to the “Eat out to help out” offer and it being busier than expected. It was also fabulous weather so maybe some opportunistic beer garden diners??? We did feel this was pretty slow but did enjoy our meal. The booking process online was very efficient.

Great Sunday Roast in the Garden of the Litton. All 5 of us really enjoyed the well cooked food, nice Pimms Cocktail and G+T. Definitely recommend

Great food and service the whole place is beautiful and has a relaxed feel to it the food was delicious and plenty of it! Will definitely be returning

Just back from 3 night stay and have to say it was a complete delight. Relaxed, well-staffed, great food and excellent service. Room was a good size and very clean and comfortable, although it was hot we were provided a large fan which helped to keep us cool. Distancing and safeguarding during covid is very good, at no time did we feel uncomfortable. Breakfast brought to the room each morning free of the usual hotel charges.

Wonderful ambiance, great indoor and outdoor seating options. Friendly and helpful staff. Delicious food beautifully presented. We had a lovely time and will certainly be back.

This was once a lovely country pub that drew very many customers from a wide area.During the late 1980's, there was a cult known as 'The Yuppies' who thought that everyone was beneath them.The way this pub works these days seems to be reflecting that narrow minded, 'channelled' type of thinking!Instead of being the large, welcoming country pub that it once was, it's now chosen to pretend that it's some sort of 'corporate establishment' within a city centre.There are many, much nicer pubs around the Mendip Hills area of Somerset that do much nicer food.

We chose The Litton as our first lunch out after easing of Covid restrictions. We’d visited before and loved the atmosphere. We were greeted at the door by a member of staff, and asked to use the hand sanitizer. We were shown to our table and given single use menus and drinks orders taken. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable, it felt safe with plenty of space between tables. Drinks arrived promptly, with lots of staff around to replenish whenever required. The food was fab! Every mouthful delicious, and served with a smile! Would really recommend this place for a casual lunch, or something more formal.

I am quite nervous coming out of lockdown and being around people again. I therefore booked a room with a private terrace. I clearly didn't need to worry (although I loved the private terrace). The Litton have taken great care to ensure social distancing (a one-way system around the restaurant and grounds) and I felt totally safe. Within an hour of arriving we booked a second night. The grounds are beautiful as are the rooms and the food is great. The staff were friendly and helpful at all times. I will definitely be returning, hopefully soon.

We've just returned from a fabulous weekend at this beautiful pub with rooms. We stayed for my Mum's birthday & were very well looked after by the friendly & helpful staff. Relaxed atmosphere, beautiful location, rooms decorated & designed stylishly with lots of thoughtful touches to make the stay really comfortable.Would recommend for a weekend away or just for food & drinks if local. Near the gorgeous city of Wells. Great base for exploring Somerset with lovely local walks too.

Great food; lovely staff, lots of outside space to eat and drink. Felt safe & welcoming. Good base for exploring Somerset, near Wells & Cheddar Gorge.

We chose the Litton as it was roughly mid way between us in Devon and son who lives in Oxford. this was our first meet up and also our first occasion eating out since the start of the C-19 pandemic. We booked on line - very easy to do and very efficient too. After driving up from Devon we were greeted by friendly staff who showed us to our table - we chose to eat inside as it was a bit overcast, however we were given the option of eating outside if we wished. Our son slightly delayed in traffic so was a little late arriving, however the staff were very understanding regarding this and allowed us plenty of time to order once he arrived.We chose different items from the menu, all of us deciding to have three courses. I myself started with a pigeon dish which was served on beetroot and with nuts and blackberries - absolutely wonderful and set the tone for the rest of the meal. For my main I chose the Market Fish Chowder with Mussels and Sea Vegetables - another stunning and tasty dish. To finish I had the orange parfait - again another super tasty and very well presented dish.Throughout our visit the staff were excellent and made our visit very enjoyable. Suitable precautions were in place due to C-19, but these were not over powering and were managed well, meaning we hardly noticed anything different from a normal visit. The price for all three meals plus drinks was very reasonable.Although just under 2 hours drive from home, we will certainly consider visiting this wonderful location for further meals in the future, and would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending The Litton to anybody. 10 out of 10 from us.

We are a group of six scattered around Somerset who try to meet up somewhere different for dinner approx.every 3 months,this was the latest.We were given the annexe next to the bar which made for a very private dining experience,I"d say this room could accomodate up to 10.The service was outstanding,the food very good,but not outstanding,price was reasonable.One word of caution for winter months,and those of us who are getting on a bit (68 &72),the lighting down from the car park at that time was wholly inadequate,making the "descent" very tricky,take a torch!

I had been here a few weeks ago and enjoyed a very good meal, so to experience a really poor Sunday lunch was a major letdown.We ordered 2 roasts and a veggie burger. Worryingly, only 5 minutes after placing the order our food arrived. Each dish was lukewarm. The roast pork was thickly cut and tasteless. Watery gravy, a stuffing ball that had seen better days and a separate cauliflower cheese which while hot, was the same consistency as the gravy.We had two attempts at ordering tap water but this never arrived.I ate 3 mouthfuls before deciding the food really didn't warrant the effort of chewing.So, 15 minutes after being seated in the restaurant I was asking for the bill (the rest of my party had given up fairly quickly on their dishes too). The Manager explained that our order had been combined with that of two very large tables. I'm uncertain as to whether we ended up with someone else's food. No matter, the food was a major disappointment and we won't be going back.

Came here one Sunday for a family meal where I had the lamb. I’m pleased to say it was honestly the best Sunday lunch I have had in my entire life. I would recommend the Litton to anyone looking for anything from a family meal to just a few drinks with friends. Can not wait to come back!

Nice setting - not far from Bristol. Lovely welcome. Good selection of drinks and food. Had the ploughman’s - excellent. Dogs welcome. Lots if outside space. Will be returning to try fondu night.

Our family group of five thoroughly enjoyed our lunch on a wet Wednesday lunchtime. The staff’s knowledge and the service they gave were excellent, generous portion sizes and excellent quality food and presentation. We were extremely impressed and will definitely return!

Great service, attentive and helpful young team. Our starters were a little underwhelming but the mains and desserts were spectacular, the house wine was lovely and the dessert wine delicious.

I had wanted to go to The Litton for a while after hearing good things and I booked for a birthday roast for my partner last Sunday. It didn't disappoint. Decor great, warm & friendly staff, prompt service, starter, main and dessert were all spot on. Then we had the added bonus of being able to watch the rugby. We'll definitely be back!

This place was booked by friends and I was expecting a small cosy country pub.It isn’t. It is a large modern looking restaurant - plenty of wood and mainly open plan.The setting is lovely and I guess it would make a great summer venue.We ate sirloin steaks and fish and chips.Beers and lagers are little known brands with two Czech lagers.We visited on a Thursday which is steak night offering two steaks and glasses of wine for £30.Despite eating early in the evening on their steak night no rib eyes were available. Not great planning! The only other disappointment was the cheese board with three small pieces of cheese for £9.Otherwise, we had a pleasant evening . Staff are attentive and friendly.Would be happy to return.

Had our first meal out after having our baby and it was spot on. The staff are lovely, the food was incredible and reasonably priced. Would definitely go back. I had the steak and it was cooked perfectly 🙂 x

A great night out at The Litton for a Valentine's meal. The choices on the Valentine's menu were excellent making it very hard to choose.The food was top quality and we loved every course. It was a very busy night and the staff worked really hard and provided a excellent service.We'll definitely be coming back in the future for another meal.Thanks to everyone at The Litton for a quality night out.

Once again,excellent food,combined with excellent service.the Linton,if you haven't been there before,is one of the best places to eat ,in our area(cheddar) so it's well worth the trip.keep up the good work,well done.see you soon.

Very impressed with this after our first visit, lovely decor and atmosphere, a good selection on the menu and good service. The little ploughman’s was fantastic, the best I’ve had and certainly not little! Will definitely return.

I booked for 6 of us plus 2 dogs to stay for a Friday/Saturday night celebration for my husbands 70th birthday. The rooms were amazing and I was hooked as soon as we checked in and was asked if we wanted milk to take up for our tea/coffee not just those awful little plastic containers. The atmosphere in the bar/restaurant was fantastic and the food could not be faulted. An excellent served breakfast also had me hooked. The whole of this was topped off by the most perfect service i have had anywhere in the world. The staff were attentive and so helpful. Please come and try for yourselves you will not be disappointed.

Went here for my birthday and couldn’t fault anything. Great service and the food was to a high standard..well done.

I visited The Litton recently for a family lunch. Everyone was very impressed with the quality of the food - I thought my scallops, venison and dessert were great. There's also a good selection of beers and the decor gives a cosy feel.

Really stunning pub, beautifully restored & maintained with gardens & a terrace overlooking a stream, near lovely walks. Delicious roast; flavoursome, came with cauliflower cheese as a standard extra, very good quality meats - the beef was perfectly cooked, pink in the middle & tender. One portion came with overcooked beef but when we gently complained we were brought some perfectly cooked beef with no quibbling. More gravy also brought on request again with no issues.

We first found the Litton last year and after enjoying our stay then we decided we would return, which we did just after the New Year. Everything about the Litton is wonderful, the room was lovely tidy and clean, the food was very good, better than what we could remember from our last visit, so much so that we ate in for all three nights. But above all else the staff were the key to our stay, friendly and always willing to help out. A special mention must be made to Tom and George who went out of their way to ensure everything was just as we needed it. A wonderful stay and we will be returning

This was an excellent experience from the ease of online booking to the great, service, food and ambience, Everything worked well without fuss to a highly professional standard, we will be back. Highly recommended

A superb event with excellent food and outstanding staff who made every effort to make the lunch special. The day was topped off with the presentation of a box of chocolates on our departure. Well done to all at the Litton

Brilliant food and very generous ! Staff were amazing and everything was perfect for us ! Had a lovely traditional Christmas atmosphere. Cosy with wood burners !

Spent Christmas there with family & friends. Excellent accommodation and great food throughout our stay. Service & staff were exceptional.

Booked to come for Sunday lunch, unfortunately didn’t even make it into the building as the car park was completely full. With no overflow car park. For such a busy establishment you would think they would try and sort out a bigger car park or overflow? I’ve been here before and my friend and I had to park a mile away and walk. That was fine because it was August but mid December when it’s cold and chucking down with rain isn’t doable. Thoroughly disappointing

First visit for lunch today I had the roast lamb and joe had the beef great food the only thing I did not really like was the gravy very bland but apart from that it was really nice.

We stayed here over the weekend (have done a hotel review also) and as a result ate in the restaurant on the first night and for two breakfasts.

After a few false alarms the food was really good when a few of us visited for Sunday lunch.

Just come back from the Litton for a meal out for my Fiancee's birthday.

The great thing about The Litton is that the owner Sally quite simply does everything to the highest standard that she can imagine – from the building refurbishment to the food and service. Today I had what was probably the best value Sunday lunch that I have ever had anywhere in the country. I phoned mid-morning to book because the website indicated that all tables were booked until 4.15pm. I was squeezed in at a small bar table for 1pm and before long five more people were lunching around the last small bar table. In spite of being packed (there were about 50 cars in the car park), the place seemed to run like clockwork. I had my food and drinks by 1.10pm!

We went to The Litton on a Friday evening for a 70th birthday. There were 17 of us so we had to pre order our food which was not a problem. The pub itself is beautifully decorated and refurbished and whilst being large enough to seat over 100 people (maybe more) it has enough nooks and crannies to give most tables a degree of privacy. The service was excellent and a good selection of beers were on offer at reasonable prices. The food was very good and varied albeit quite expensive for a pub. 5 of us had the 10oz sirloin which was £23 (£18.50 at Pasture in Bristol for the same steak) but, I must say it is probably the best tasting and perfectly cooked steak I have ever tasted outside a proper steak restaurant and better than some of them. My wife had baked a cake for her mums birthday and the staff were more than accommodating and brought the cake out with warm plates and a smile. Well done to the Litton, definitely worth a trip.

The Litton was amazing and accommodating today as we needed to ‘hide’ a surprise visitor from Australia to celebrate her dad’s 65th birthday with family. Food, drinks and service were all spot on. I’d thoroughly recommend. We were at our table for roughly 4 hours and weren’t rushed in any way at all. They even let us bring our own cakes

Busy pub restaurant, many groups celebrating so very popular place. Disappointing fish platter to share as everything fried. Just fish in batter, whitebait and calamari. Our party enjoyed vegetarian burger and fish and chips but too much batter after first course, and same fish just larger portion. Mussels quite small. Pork dish quite expensive for what was on plate. Overall not very impressed with food and quite surprised how busy and popular it was

We were looking for somewhere different for an anniversary stay and found The Litton on Somerset Hotel website , looked interesting so booked a room for the night and a table for dinner. The website booking was easy and confirmed very quickly and a separate email to confirm dinner reservation. We stopped in nearby Wells and checked in just after 3. There are 2 car parks the biggest is at the front which must be on the main road, our sat have took us to the rear. Very quiet location all you can here is the running water from the brook. Friendly greeting, you checkin at the bar . We were shown to our room on the first floor looking out to the rear of the hotel. It was named The Luturne, well appointed with a really comfy bed with crisp sheets , a good shower and lovely vaulted ceilings. My only issue was that the lighting was so dim, even in the bathroom , making it very difficult to put on make up etc the room despite not having the heating on was very warm. Nothing was too much trouble all of the staff were excellent both at dinner and breakfast and were happy to chat about the history of The Litton. We had a few drinks in the bar , the wine list offers a good selection and even a vegan choice. The bar area is very dog friendly, and there are a couple of separate rooms and a small whiskey bar. The menu was not vast but offered some daily specials, the sticky pork special was nice and offered good flavours it probably could have done with being on a small plate with a small salad rather than a bowl. The battered goats cheese was good. The sirloin steak was cooked to perfection with some really tasty chips, the venison ragu was very tasty. A lovely evening, after a good night’s sleep , it was so lovely and quiet more food awaited in the form of breakfast. Non guests can also come in for breakfast and there is a good choice all cooked to order. The eggs benedict was just enough , the sausage brioche was massive 3 huge tasty sausages. Good coffee no room for anything else but the next table’s bacon and maple syrup pancakes looked really good. A lovely stay with great service from start to finish.

I visited Litton 3 times now. Me and my friends go for walk in mendips as it’s mid point for all of us to meet and we always book table here. Never been dissapointed with food or the service. Decor is nice, they are really dog friendly and food is always really good plus very good selection to choose from. Couldn’t fault it. Always pleasure to come back to....

Did what it said on the tin- AA 5 star inn. Super room with very comfy bed, excellent shower and no noise from the pub. Staff, without exception, pleasant, helpful and well trained. Good food for a gastropub with prompt and efficient service despite being busy. Great for a quiet weekend away.

Beautifully restored characterful pub/restaurant. Wide range of of drinks, good food and excellent service. Will definitely go again.

We took the family for lunch as we'd enjoyed the food and ambience so much last time we visited. The sun shone and we sat outside. My daughter and I agreed to share. We ordered fish with triple cooked chunky chips and a goats cheese and red onion marmalade sandwich. The sandwich comes unusually with the bread toasted although it isnt squashed together like a toastie. It was delicious and with the coleslaw and salad more than enough for one.

It was our anniversary trip away for a day and night and we wanted non formal but quality with a relaxed feel in a nice location and a room with a view that was away from noise. The Litton had it all.

This is essentially an overpriced pub, very well styled with funky furniture and different seating areas.

Firstly, the staff were awesome. We were in on a Friday night and they were absolutely cracking. Really friendly.

Came here on bank holiday Monday evening for dinner, the car park was completely full and there’s no overflow so we had to park down the road in a lay-by and walk up. Took ages to be served at the bar for drinks, not a great start. Once served we walked out to the garden and chose our food, if you eat outside you have to go back inside to place your order which I think is really strange, there should be someone outside all the time to take orders. Our starter came fairly quick which was great as we then had to wait 40 minutes for our mains to come, by then it was cold outside and we had to come back in. Food was really well cooked, only downside was that the portion was slightly too small for the price. Ordered desserts which took 15 minutes to come which being a pastry chef myself is way too long to wait, the pastry on the tart was too thick and the sorbet had just melted all over the plate. The menu also stated it came with a chocolate shard which my dessert came without. My friends chocolate mousse was in a strange glass and was thick and hard. Took too long to be cleared and ended up going to the bar to pay. Overall service was PAINFULLY slow, young inexperienced servers who just gathered at the bar to chat... won’t be coming back I’m afraid which is a shame as it’s local and seemed so promising.

This pub is decorated beautifully and in a gorgeous surrounding. We eaten here once before and had a great meal but felt the service wasn’t brilliant.

We had an excellent meal here. The surroundings were fabulous, and the decor was very individual. Even the toilets were distinctive!

Went to the Litton for the first time to celebrate my partners birthday with his family.

Went for an impromptu evening meal midweek. Sat in garden, church bells ringing in the background. Rapid service (15 mins) fish and chips plus veg burger. Tasty food, good value. Also had warming winter lunches here in front of the log fire after a cold bike ride over from Bristol.

Great Country pub with lots to offer with large inside and outside seating with great friendly welcome and service fro all the team. Great selection and value food and drinks. A must try pub and quick return.

Went for a family meal last night. Got a warm welcome at the bar and were taken straight to our table. Table service was unfriendly (staff were too busy) drinks came fairly quickly. Sauvignon Blanc was poor, but dry cider was very good. Jug of water with cucumber was nice. Ordered cheesy garlic bread to share which came in about 15 minutes. Cheese was tasteless (Cheddar is just down the road!) and there was no garlic to be found: an easy dish that was bland and disappointing. Ordered mussels and chips as a main, but again it was tasteless, the liquor had no flavour at all; the mussels were good quality and well cooked though. Vegetarian pasta was good and chicken risotto was okay. Overall, food and service seemed to lack passion and attention to detail. A nice venue, which unfortunately doesn’t walk the walk.

Very disappointed with standard of food. Had a main salad which was basically chopped ingredients thrown into a bowl with some jar pesto as an added thought. No thought about flavourings. Chips were made from poor potato and cod in batter was flimsy. The pudding (cookie dough)was something you'd buy in Aldi and heat up. Will never eat there again until I hear chef standards have improved. Delightful serving staff however.
