Four of us experienced the Quantock Belle dining journey from Bishops Lydeard to Minehead today The whole afternoon was fantastic, the service, the food, the ambience could not be faulted. All the staff except the chef are volunteers and their teamwork was seamless. We were so well looked after and the food was delicious For a special occasion it was excellent value for money

what a beautiful day we had, the staff was absolutely amazing, they were all volunteers Barr the chef, the was staff was, so friendly and helpful. It was very hot day and you never heard them moan so I take my hat of to you guys. the food was lovely and the slow journey to minehead was beautiful . Train was what I expected, completely a wonderful day.

The journey was very slow, two hours to cover 20 odd miles. I don’t know how the cost was split between the railway and the caterers but the overall cost seemed very excessive. The starter was ok as was the roast gammon which was satisfactory with quite small portions ( except the red cabbage which was in abundance but something We don’t eat ). The dessert, a strawberry tartin was awful, in my opinion, and was mostly left with no comment from the staff. The “ continuous tea and coffee promised on the was home became available when we were about 30 minutes from home, we were all gasping. I didn’t feel the trip was wort £75 per person.
