The Old Colonial in North Somerset

Early supper before the theater really good menu lots to chose from, we just had starters and dessert because we wanted a light meal..

Came with the family and had a great time

Good enough place with a good range of drinks. It feels old, so at least the name is accurate.

Good food at good prices. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and efficient staff.

This is great place to eat drink and staff brilliant

We always come here when we are at Weston. Good beer good food comfy place. Great prices and staff are polite friendly and helpful. We will be calling in again over the next few days xx

Great pub with a great team! Great food!

Bland cold food terrible service not returning

Excellent food and excellent service. Prices were very reasonable.

We booked a table here to celebrate my daughters 21st the staff were approachable and helpful and kept us informed. The food was good and I would definitely recommend visiting here

We chose the Old colonial for my daughter's graduation surprise family meal as we had been before for her 21st bday and enjoyed our time then. The staff were helpful,friendly and professional. We had a table of 10 so a lot of orders the food was hot and all came out quickly not leaving any one waiting while others ate. No mistakes or anything missing! Like I said before the order was big but surprisingly it didn't break the bank! which makes me want to return and recommend this place to friends family and who ever wants to listen! :)

We stayed in the family room over the pub and loved it. It’s an old building, but it’s clean and has friendly helpful staff and a view of the beach from the family room. Don’t expect a modern highly staffed operation, but the rooms were big and clean, staff friendly, food and drink lovely, and parking free right by the beach! 5 stars for value for money at this location.

Clean and tidy very helpful staff 👌

I ventured here in hopes of a good time as I was on my way into town. All I wanted was a coffee. Maybe a bite to eat? No. Instead I got cold bitter coffee and dry mediocrity food. I did complain to a member of staff who disappeared to "get it sorted" and never came back. Shows the vile service this awful place is being. If you fancy a trip here? DON'T

Great service from Amy and food quality amazing. Highly recommend!

Place I'd tired needs a lick of paint

Visited the Old Colonial or a recent trip to the area. The staff were very welcoming and made us feel right at home! Amy looked after us and nothing was too much! Food was super hot and came really quickly! Cannot fault the place!

Absolutely amazing experience for me and my friends! Amy was fantastic from start to finish. The service was quick and efficient and the food was really nice. Overall a really enjoyable experience at the old colonial and we will definitely be back!

Lovely birthday meal out when visiting the area. Amy was attentive and helpful. Food was delicious too! Will 100% return!

Nice relaxed atmosphere. Welcoming towards dogs. Good wifi and great good and drink.

Not enough chips and not warm enough

Straight away I know it's a chain business where the manager doesn't want to make money. The restaurant is advertised open from 7.30 am until 11 pm?? Tried to come in 2 days ago and pub is closed at 8pm? Clearly manager wanted a quick finish to go and drink instead of obaying the time on your website how sad will not waste time coming here ever As I right this review I can see the other comments and I'm am not the only one who has a issue with this and the landlord obviously is a waste of space who has no passion for customers! ! I hope this place closes down and is taken by a reliable person!

We have visited Old Colonial twice during our stay in Weston this week. They have made us welcome with our dog. Signs around say it is a dog friendly pub, and we would definitely agree. We had lunchtime meals on both occasions and were pleasantly pleased with the service and quality of the meal. Prices are reasonable for a seaside resort. They have a quiz night during the week. We would definitely return when in Weston again.

Drinks at the ready. Great place for meeting up and going on your way.

What a dirty place toilets are buzzing it burns your nose the smell of pee it's like they don't clean them. The tables are not clean they need to close it down and deep clean it

Would like to say a massive thank you for to staff at the old colonial so polite and very accommodating also a thank you to the head chef he went out his way to sorted some food out for the kids will defo be back again

Almost made it to 2 stars but the unpleasant service from the lady doesn't deserve it. The curry was terrible absolutely freezing and even when complaining the same lady did nothing. Why should I pay for ping food!! Good luck getting a penny from me or my friends ever again. Wish I had checked reviews before visiting, speaks for itself.

The people and menu are good, but the building is WELL overdue for a referb. The staff and locals - never mind holidaymakers - deserve better...

Drinks so expensive horrible smell outside smelled like weed glasses everywhere staff nowhere to be seen just had 1 drink and went next door to nicks where they have good service!

Ordered a mixed grill. Gammon wasn't cooked, steak was meant to be medium rare, it was that under cooked David Attenborough was waiting to film a documentary on it. Waitress advised she would tell the kitchen. Came back to inform she'd told the kitchen.....that was it. Nothing done about it. No refund on it. Obismal!! The cheesy garlic bread was the end of a French stick. Absolutely shocking. No wonder it was dead. Won't be returning here again.

good value for money good staff and service 👏

The staff were very friendly and welcoming and very helpful during our 2 hours there. The food was very good as well. The whole experience was very favourable. Thank you.

Absolutely rubbish. No arcade fruitys on. No pool table. Toilets are a disgrace. Windows look like the leak. Absolutely terrible place. Not like it use to be.

No hand pull beer pumps on looking forward to a pint of pedigree Had a baguette with peri peri chicken in it The baguette was stale found two small pieces of chicken and the piri peri chicken was tasteless Also outside could to with painting and the threadbare carpets replacing

Service very good, food nice, waitress Nikki allergy knowledge excellent

Terrible food and terrible service, been here a hour - no one has cleaned plates around the tables - all staff just standing around. food all arrived late I had finished eating before my nans had even got here. Tables and chairs so dirty. £9.29 for smallest fish and chips. Won’t be back Defiantly won’t be eating here again.

Popped in for a drink on Saturday evening with friends. Before leaving I used the ladies toilets. They were disgusting and very smelly. It has put me off coming back for a drink let alone a meal.

We booked for 530pm for 6 of us for food thinking it would just be a meal setting we walk in and it's massively overcrowded people standing everywhere they had some sort of "band" playing and it was in the same area as you eat food and it was so loud you couldn't even talk yet alone have a family meal , the service wasn't great the bar staff were abrupt we thought booking at a restaurant there would be a separate part for live music we walked straight back out and went elsewhere

Food came cold. & small plate sizes for the prices

Bad smell of cigarettes when entering and staff had no personality probably won't come back

This is one of a few Marstons in Weston-super-Mare area but the place is looking very unkempt! This is really unfortunate as being on the seafront is a perfect position and always used to be a nice place to go!

The food was freshly prepared, and very tasty. There is a welcoming atmosphere. The staff are always around and work exceptionally hard to keep customers happy.

Quieter than the pubs beside them but popped in for a drink anyway was very expensive for a Guinness and J20 and didn't eat as other reviews said not to

Food hot and tasty but my kids are too young to hear swearing behind the bar so definitely not coming back or recommending.

I highly recommend this fantastic pub in Weston to all my friends! It's got loads of space inside and offers a beautiful view of the sea. Plus, the customer service is top-notch!

Marston's chain pub so you know what you're getting. A little tired around the edges but cracking views and dog friendly

My lasagne was freezing almost frozen. Staff didn't seem to care. Not returning.

On our arrival the guy on reception was extremely polite and helpful, he looked after us as a family. We entered the room it was bright, clean, welcoming and looked fresh with a Lovely sea view We will definitely go there again on our next trip.

Was visiting friends in the area who recommended we eat here, we had the lunch club offer which was fantastic and the gammon was just the right size for me. My husband finished the delicious chocolate fudge cake. We were served by a very friendly lady who I believed may have been the manager. Overall we had a lovely time I would note that they could use a refurb especially on the toilets however they were clean.

Toilets are filthy and not very nice. Bar lady smelt of cigarettes which put me off my lasagne. Won't come back.

Manager is rude and didn't care our coffee was bitter and cold so will be telling people not to come back

Best food in the world!!! Recommended to all, came here with my friends last week and had a burger with chips, very good service and all round good atmosphere, sent my thanks to Ethan Chaplin who was chiefing that day!

Very understaffed and clearly no good management wont come back

I was with my mum and begged by a guy called Ethan to mention him in a 5 star review as he got a bonus for it, I'm sitting in spoons just wanting to enjoy my drink leave me alone

Overpriced and the server running it reeked like cigarettes and was extremely rude to us while serving.

Great service and definitely a pub id recommend my friends and family too, "Ethan" I think the name of the chef was, his food was brilliant and even exchanged some very kind and sincere words across the table.

Music was too loud and a lot of swearing in the kitchen won't be going back ever again and i mean ever and the food was disgusting it felt like i got food poising and i swear i think i saw bugs

I came here recently for a drink and a bite to eat and had a great time, good service and give praise to the Chef Ethan for a great steak meal.

Awesome steak, perfectly cooked. New young chef Ethan done a great job.

Staff sat out front smoking in joggers looking rather rough around the edges, we didn’t bother going in. Having seen that as it put us all off. It’s not really much a professional look to see outside the business but there we go. Like to maybe try again another assuming some experienced cleaner management takes over. Really used to like coming in here but there we go.

Had an amazing mixed grill cooked by the chef shaun proper man food well satisfied huge portion decent price defo return for that nd manager nicky very welcoming good good visit.

Had the best fish and chips ever today , I sent compliments to the chefs Ethan and Sean, cooked to perfection and presented well. We will be back especially if we know Sean and Ethan are cooking !!!

Popped in for a pint with the dog. Proper dog friendly, treats on the bar top, came over with a bowl of water for the dog too, little things like this make your experience all the better.

Came in Saturday and all bar staff swearing and drinking alcohol while working. Not family friendly if you ask me.

Polite attentive staff. Good to see the manager out on the floor. Great atmosphere, and food was really good. A really lovely evening spent here.

Had a lovely meal and drinks with family on our holiday. Brilliant customer service by the staff, food was tasty and hot, with quick service. Bar staff were fun & kept a bright atmosphere. Thank you!

Food was good, warm and plenty.

Always have a great time at the Old Colonial

Had a great time today. The atmosphere is good and the food was superb. Great assortment of drinks too Highly recommended

Great food and good value. The drinks are fairly priced as well. Bar staff are friendly too.

It was my Aunties 90th birthday meal ,the staff were absolutely brilliant in all they done make it a good experience for her, will defiantly be eating there again , loved it.

+ Reasonable good sized seafront pub with outside seating area opposite the beach. Prices seemed about average. Serves food all day. Friendly bar staff. - Probably could do with a light refurb / freshen up.

We did not have food so cannot comment, they were very accommodating for us and dog friendly. Even getting our dog a treat. We had teas and a latte which was lovely. Excellent service. Will come again.

Amazing place to eat drink and sleep awesome staff great service.

Beatifall would a million percent go again

We really enjoyed our food except our grandaughter (8) who decided she wanted to try the Korma but said it was nothing like Mum's - in fact it was very nice indeed, certainly not too spicy. It was fairly busy so didn't expect fast service and in fact we had our meals within about half an hour which we thought was acceptable but the plates were cold, not even slightly warm. We had sat outside as it was nice and sunny but the food on the cold plates with a chilly wind cooled down quickly. We do realise maybe we should have sat inside but the plates were still cold. The staff were polite and friendly but next time (and there will be a next time) we will probably sit inside to eat unless it's very warm.

Love it here. Its a great place to eat and the staff are absolutely lovely. I would definitely recommend them

super dog friendly, wide choice of drinks, great staff

Had some food here with my family and the Irish bar man was so friendly, I think he said his name was Markie, will come again for the korma and cocktails!

Breakfast NOT included but can be purchased

I walked out after waiting 15 minutes for a beer

Slow service, staff wasn’t friendly.

Lovely staff, very friendly, great service. Would definitely recommend

We have been visiting every Thursday for years and the staff are always delightful , we wouldn’t go anywhere else 👍

Went above and beyond fantastic food fantastic service made my dog feel so welcome and despite me ordering the wrong thing they happily changed it over i would 100% recommend this place to others

A lovely quiet atmosphere, the staff were incredibly friendly and generous when things were out of stock in the options they provided. Portions were large, fresh and delicious. What more could you want?

Absolutely amazing hotel!! I live locally and come here almost every day. Before learning to cook, I actually ate here everyday and their food is really good. It’s such a nice, chilled, relaxing bar, allows dogs, even gives them water and treats!! The staff are second to none, always so helpful and friendly, really make you feel your custom is appreciated. I cannot recommend The Old Colonial enough.

Was told on arriving what they did not have in stock for food, on ordering a simple jacket with prawns, told not in stock , needless to say we left and will not be returning, no wonder the place was empty,

Brought my parents and my children and grandchildren in for food there was 14 of us in total and cant fault anything food was fantastic thank you james and sam. And bar staff Amy, richard, ethan and mike was brillant 5 stars all the way thank you all will be back

Much better inside than what it looks like on the outside 😱

Great service really good food Chef deserves a pay rise because that was amazing

Pleasant environment, quick service, excellent location … and Wi-Fi!

Lovely place good was great for price. Drinks were very overpriced if you don't do the deal. Me and my kids loved it though

Food always good and as expected for pub grub

Great experience with server Rich. Great chat where my 84 year old dad wants to come in again, mostly for the kindness. Enjoyed the fish and chips too!

As for me everything on place for reasonable costs. Happy to comeback.

Really clean place, extremely friendly and just lovely staff members. The food was out of this world, being a vegetarian it’s often difficult to find someone good to eat but this was a 10 out of 10 for me. I will definitely return and highly recommend.

Excellent Festive meal for 26 club members with good service, many comments followed. Thanks Peter Smith .

Had veggie breakfast states continental included but no sign or offer of juice, fresh fruit or crossiants in sight. Had to send coffee back as tasted of nothing. Replaced with cappuccino but still very weak. Breakfast not value for money at £8.75 just for what we recieved.
