The Ruishton Inn in Taunton Deane - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We noticed on arrival the "for let" notice outside and assume that the current tenants are planning to finish soon. Inside the facilities were clean although very dated. However the service we received was more than adequate: the meals came quite quickly and the food was hot and although quite basic, was better than one often gets in a chain pub. There were very few people in - it is establishments like this that need customer support to survive.

Friendly welcome, excellent service, had the fish and chips very good food,loved the sixties soundtrack, support the traditional pub

Chosen from the Brit stops App whilst travelling North on M5. Just off the M5. We were able to use the carpark as an overnight stopover with our campervan we rang ahead, warm welcome, large level carpark. We ordered food, homecooked , good choice and welcome after our long journey.

When we arrived at the delapidated establishment we gave it the benefit of the doubt and went in. Upon arrival we were greeted in the traditional Ruisden way of ignoring you totally. We then sat down in a room that resembled a working man’s club you would only find in a 1970s mining town. Once we had established ourselves on the bench seats that were harder than wolverines claws, we ordered 3 pints of san Miguel which came to £18. Which considering we weren’t paying for any other bar staff, upkeep of decor, entertainment or any sign of additional costs i thought was a bit steep. Having settled in and enjoyed two more rounds we noticed his only other customer had left and so we got up to order an he told us that the bar was closed and that f course it was our fault because in Ruishton the normal way to call last orders is to stay behind the bar dead still and stare vaguely into the distance till someone comes and orders a pint and you get the pleasure of telling them to metaphorically “ eff off”. Would recommend to no one

Avoid. Absolutely awful food, worse experience I have ever had total waste of money, microwave used to heat the meals and they were all burnt to a crisp, complained but the manageress was not interested

Called in on spec for an evening meal . Made very welcome Excellent local beer and very tasty food with selection of fresh vegetables. It is very much a country pub despite being close to Taunton with an interesting decor.Fully recommend

We stayed two nights at the Premier Inn a couple of minutes walk from the hotel was the Ruishton Inn. Local country pub and as the hotel didn’t have a bar or restaurant we went there rather than the Miller & Carter next door. Support local was the idea. Sadly the pub food was shocking. We were sat next to the kitchen and constantly head beep beep beep. The lady running the kitchen was cooking everything in the microwave which led to us receiving 2 adult and two kids meals which weren’t edible. We paid and left but my wife couldn’t leave without passing comment which they didn’t seem to care about. The prices were high for what was on offer and quality wasn’t worth half the price. If you stay at the Premier inn use the Miller & Carter next door

Lovely country Pub in walking distance from Premier Inn. Friendly atmosphere and staff. Good selection on the food menu. A fine place to spend a winter evening.

The buffet provided was excellent. The food was a very good selection of sweet and savoury. A separate small table was laid out for the two special diets requested. We were able to have one of the rooms to ourselves. Thank you so much.

We visited here as opposed to a chain because we wanted to support a local business, but honestly we are disappointed that we wasted our money and time . On arrival the welcome was very average. Decor dated but this wasn't an issue really. We ordered our meals with the young waiter who looked scared to death to be honest . While waiting for our food we heard lots of microwaves pinging , so we are thinking there was a lot of warming up going on. Anyway my steak was tiny and over cooked for medium to well done it was rock hard , I also had 4 tiny pieces of scampi and 6 chips !!! The plate had half a grilled tomato , a few mushrooms and a spoonful of peas. My other half was served a burnt bland lasagne burnt garlic bread and 7 chips. No peas etc. I asked for English mustard, my thumb was bigger than the serving tbh. When my partner complained about the food the waiter just shrugged his shoulders and said sorry about that.. We decided we were not going to waste any more of our time here and chose to pay and leave . On the way home to our overnight stay we had to stop off and buy something else to eat as we were still hungry . We want to point out it wasn't just us. The couple on the next table weren't happy with the portion size but were to polite to say to the waiter. We saw other meals coming out just before we left and they were awful too..I can't understand how they think this is acceptable to serve and charge people as the meals weren't exactly cheap. So I would like to warn you all to stay away!!

We had planned to eat at the Toby Jug next to the Premier Inn but were turned away as we hadn’t booked! So we just happened to see a sign on a tree advertising The Ruishton Inn (5 min walk from the Premier Inn). So off we headed. Initial impressions were that it looked s little run down but after a warm welcome & great service from the outset we eagerly awaited our food order. There is an extensive menu from a range of steaks to more traditional “pub” dishes but definitely something to suit all tastes. The food was utterly delicious - home cooked, plentiful & very reasonably priced. The Chilean merlot also went down a treat. We were so pleased we ate there as opposed to the Toby Jug, we returned the next evening. My friend, who enjoyed the lamb shank so much ordered it again the second evening. Also worth a mention, the teenage waitress who served us was very friendly & happy to engage with us & is a credit to the pub. So, if you are hoping for a modern, contemporary pub serving cocktails and a charcuterie board then the Ruishton Inn is probably not for you but if you don’t mind a very traditional, old style pub with a pie & chips type offering then you will love it here.

The good thing about this pub was the young waitress. She was pleasant and efficient but the place is grim! It’s like a trip into the 80’s with a dog bed in the corner of a room and a pile of newspapers piled on a mobility scooter on view as you walk to the restaurant. The food was ok , nothing special but I found the whole place so unpleasant and unfriendly I couldn’t wait to leave!!

Was recommended to try the evening menu at the Ruishton Inn and duly arrived at 7 pm .....Immediately Impressed by the cheery welcome given by the staff, and the lovely atmosphere right through the bar and restaurant area . The comprehensive menu offered was good .....and the standard of cuisine was superb, as was the attentive service at all courses. In all I cannot remember a better meal anywhere at the competitive prices charged ....if anyone is in the area I unreservedly recommend a visit to THE RUISHTON INN .....well done team ...👍💐🌹🌺

Disgusting, rude man in a wheelchair behind the bar. Food was terrible. Pub was dated and dirty. Smells of cigarette smoke as man in wheelchair smokes in the conservatory bit of the pub. I would suggest going elsewhere as this place is absolutely terrible

Rude landlord, you're lucky we didn't just walk straight back out! I have NEVER been shouted at in any pub ever and I'm 53. If we didn't hear what you said shouting across the pub then I apologise, but you do not shout at a customer ever! I village pub with a rude landlord who smoke in the pub (illegally), just about average food with a really nice young lady working her socks off while you suck peanuts out of a bag behind the bar. Not my kind of pub thanks.

I would just like to say a huge thank you to The Ruishton Inn for accommodating me and my colleagues, feeding and serving us drinks after a long weeks work. 1st night not finishing till 20:00, 14 of us walking in with an hour till kitchen close, the team went above and beyond to feed us all. Throughout the week they allowed the kitchen to open so we could all grab some great pub food. Whenever we are down this part of the country again will definitely be returning.

Walked here from the premier inn. Located in what looks like a lovely village. Staff very friendly and got the job done. Now if you like a pint you know some places serve a good pint and some not so much. This place serves a...

We stopped here for a meal and enjoyed a good steak and spotted dick pudding. Beer was good. Excellent price! We got on well with Malcom and Caroline, it was a quiet evening in the pub. We had our motorhome and the drive is steep, so be careful if you have a tow bar as it grounds as you turn into the drive.

As with other reviewers we were staying at Premier Inn and this was recommended.We were made to feel welcome by other customers not so much by the landlord but the landlady was friendly.The food was okay nothing special but perfectly edible. We thought we would go to the only other place near Premier Inn for a drink...the Toby Carvery to be told on arrival at 8.10 that they closed at 8!!!Not much in area so maybe drive into Taunton.

We were staying at the Premier Inn and saw a sign outside the hotel advertising this pub when we drove in. Rather than go the the Toby Carvery next door we thought we would give a go as it's only a 5 minute walk along the road to the Ruishton village and the pub. Outside it's an unusual looking pub but inside it's fairly traditional and decorated with hundreds of elephants (the landlord informed me there were over 250). On entering we initially went into the bar area instead of the eating area where tables are set out but this was easily rectified and we changed rooms. After sitting down we found that all of the other 3 tables taken were also guests at the Premier Inn. The beer was well kept and there was a good choice of cask ales. I had a couple of pints and enjoyed both. The wine choice as a bit limited but a Pinot Grigio was apparently OK. My wife ordered scampi and it was fairly average although the chips were good, I ordered sirloin steak and it was surprisingly good - a nice piece of meat cooked exactly and I asked. We thought the prices were very good value and we paid less than elsewhere. I've read previous reviews complaining about unfriendly owners and preference for locals but we found the complete opposite, the landlord & his wife were friendly and we had no problems at all with service (and that was on a Saturday night). The other diners from the Premier Inn seemed to have the same experience.

This place was recommended by the premier inn, who I can only assume have a vested interest in its takings. Landlord was unfriendly, despite our best efforts to draw any conversation out of him. Food was crazily overpriced, £6 for 5 frozen chicken nuggets and a bit of lettuce?We were told this was the best place in the area, if so god help the rest of Taunton.

A local pub. For local people. I have absolutely no problem with this, but the general attitude, especially that of what I assumed to be the landlord was "Unless you and at least 3 generations of your family live within a mile of this establishment, I'm not going to even bother pretending that you're welcome"Decor is reminiscent of an elderly spinster's sitting room. As for the food, I don't pretend for one moment to be Egon Ronay, but a slice of clearly mouldy toast with a grated cheese and burnt mushroom topping, and 6 Iceland Value Brand Chicken Nuggets on top of some stale cucumber and lettuce isn't worth £13 In my book. Nor anyone else's, I imagine.I've given it a 2, instead of 1 rating on account of the beer being drinkable and the exits being clearly marked.

We were staying at the Premier Inn down the road and visited here for our evening meal. We had home made West Country Faggots and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The portion was generous and the food tasty. Reasonable prices and a good choice of dishes. The staff were all friendly and we felt pleased to have visited.

We decided to walk to this pub as it had a sign next to the Premier Inn that stated it was only a 5 minute walk. We were welcomed by a very rude guy in a wheelchair serving behind the bar. He clearly only wanted his “locals” in his pub. The beer was warm and flat, the wine tasted more like vinegar. Luckily we decided not to order food. It says it’s a friendly family pub, definitely not on the evening we chose to visit!

Like others came recommended was a great shame about the negative vibes of not being local seen it many times the landlord was helpful enough but bar staff needs social skills in customer care hence I would have given better rating food was OK no complaints

Popped in at 8.30 while staying at the PremierInn up the road. Very quiet for a Saturday night, however the staff were friendly and welcoming. We had the Saturday night special, 8oz rump steak and chips. Both were cooked exactly as we had requested and were really good. The restaurant was immaculate, the tables spotless and well presented. Definitely recommend.

Booked because it seemed to have best reviews in the area.

Visited here after seeing it advertised outside the Premier Inn approx 10 mins walk away. Decided to try food here rather than Toby Carvery next to hotel.

Popped in on a dark Tuesday night for a beer and some food and I wasn’t disapointed... really nice homely feel to what is a nice ‘real’ pub, The home made food was delirious, the service was friendly and the pint of 6X is one of the best I’ve had in a while...

skittling is a common event in somerset pubs & afterwards the pubs provide a cooked meal. quality varies from pub to pub but this really was pathetic , some dried out sandwiches , cold finger food that looked like it had just been defrosted & some burnt oven chips . the worst pub food we have ever been presented with & very very over priced. i would not go back here if you paid me.

Good food and plenty of choice for all. Service is very good and the bar has a good range of beers and wines as well as spirits. Good value for money in my opinion

Visited 04/09/2018. Friendly and helpful landlord and landlady. Nice atmosphere and well appointed bar and eating areas (loved the "herds" of elephant ornaments". Waited but a short time for the food which was served by the landlady herself, - piping hot and delicious. If it is on the menu when you visit, - the cider and apple soup, made by the landlady to her own recipe - is scrumptious. Would certainly recommend The Ruishton Inn, and if we lived closer we would definitely become "regulars".

Called in for a bite to eat and a couple of pints during an overnight stay.

This place represents everything brilliant about the British pub. There was no pretentiousness. No pretending to be anything it wasn't. I felt welcome as soon as I walked in the door and until I left.

My husband and I visited here on our way to Burgh Island as a quick stop off whilst using the Premier Inn. The Ruishton Inn is a short worthwhile walk away. What a find. There is a Toby Carvery next door to the Premier Inn but please don’t go there, go to the Ruishton Inn instead you won’t be disappointed!

... which has grown and changed without regard for artful, matching decor or a heritage 'theme' - which might explain some folks' poor impressions. I thought it was great, really. Not part of a predictable chain, not bought out and refashioned. Just a proper pub doing practical food at sensible prices. An unpretentious gem.

We had dinner here while staying at the Premier Inn. It was a very dark walk to get there but we were made welcome. There was a good choice on the menu. Our meals, steak and ale pie, curry were both tasty. Good, honest pub food. Friendly service. Reasonable price. Good beer too.

Visited for dinner whilst staying at Premier Inn up the road. Large car park to rear. Old fashioned but comfortable village pub. Excellent good value beer and reasonable food menu with many pub favourites. We tried and liked West Country ham, egg & chips, smoked haddock & prawn crumble and Beef & Ale pie. Service was prompt and friendly and cost was reasonable. I would not hesitate to return if possible n the area.

This has a nice alley and you can have a cook meal which they have a good choice of menu . This is a friendly place to go . good parking ,

Just had a really lovely sunday lunch. There's a full menu to order from too if Sunday lunch isn't for you. They are baby/child friendly with a great menu for littlies that are just a fiver and you get to scoops of ice cream at the end :) everything is homemade and fresh. The dessert are so lovely and plenty full...again homemade. Service was really friendly and the pub has a lovely oldly worldy laid back feel. So so clean and well loved. Thank you for a lovely meal.

The food is cooked to order and is of excellent quality. The licensees were very friendly and welcoming. The menu has a lot of what I call traditional pub dishes unlike some others I could mention where you are hard pressed to find anything other than 'foreign' food. We were staying at the Taunton Ruishton Premier Inn for two nights and we were advised not to try the Toby Carvery door. The Ruishton Inn was recommended to us by a member of staff at the Premier Inn and very pleased we were too.

Called into The Rusihton Inn to meet some friends and have a lunch. A friendly traditional village pub. A good selection of beers, wine and food. Food was served nice and hot and cooked while you wait. A nice large car park with plenty of space for parking. Well worth a visit.

This is a nice quiet country pub, just off the M5 motorway, near Taunton, Somerset. The friendly staff serve generous portions of good, home-cooked food and they have a selection of ales and beers. It is popular with the locals, and a few visitors that find it.

Absoulty love this place. The owners let us sit in the beer garden till they opened. ( we'd just walked to it from premier inn. Food is yummy and home made and beer prices are really good. Highly recommended this pub.

Tuve una cena encantadora en este pub esta noche. No quieres comer en el asador toby junto al Premier Inn, así que fue guiada aquí. Que me recibieron cuando entré por la puerta, y aunque sólo había otra persona allí no sentir intimidados (siendo un...

La comida era horrible, tanto sosa y obviamente no era fresco. La decoración estaba anticuada y no atractiva y ambiente inexistente.

El personal es amable. La comida es buena. Las bebidas son baratas. Su aspecto es muy British vintage. Estuvimos allí para el almuerzo después de un agradable paseo hasta el Canal de taunton y volver.

Visitamos aquí porque era sólo un minuto 5 / 10. a pie desde el hotel de la estancia de nuestra segunda noche. El propietario era acogedor y sirven una buena selección de comida casera, recién, incluyendo una pequeña selección de opciones vegetarianas. Estaba bastante concurrido, con lo que parecía ser gente que era amable y la comida estaba recién preparado, servido por un personal amable y servicial, lo recomendaría para una noche agradable en un entorno confortable.

Suficientemente agradable comida y cerveza. Podía hacer con más ambiente. Muy tranquilo. Hay una gramola, pero no ofrecido. Que hubiera curado el silencio.

With a premier inn situated only five minutes walk away you would think the inn would be able to cash in by serving good quality reasonably priced food.However they fail at any of these things.The menu is limited and well overpriced,such a shame,wish we went to the Toby inn next to the premier inn.

I walked in and felt like I had walked into the local shop in Royston vasey - league of gentleman. Bar staff as miserable as the couple of locals who were slumped at the bar drinking. What a dive. The food looked gross. We were made to feel very unwelcome and left after our first drink.

Food menu looked alright but meals were not up to a good standard, avoid the puddings! We think they came from the pound shop. Disappointing .

This pub seems to be very popular on a Friday evening. The lounge bar is a better bet than the public bar as regards sitting down to eat. Main courses are £9+ (as at Nov 2015). Very friendly staff and surprisingly quick service. Families with children are welcome - and there are some quirky features to interest children while they're waiting (such as the collection of elephant statues) - but there doesn't seem to be a children's menu and I wasn't nosey enough to hang around to check up on how the children on the next table were catered for in terms of portion sizes (I left before they were served).Definitely more character than a chain restaurant, and on reflection I think the slightly high prices are worth paying as it means you're supporting a small local business rather than lining the pockets of anonymous directors and shareholders.

We were made very welcome, and had excellent freshly cooked meal and drinks in very pleasant surroundings. The Staff were really friendly and helpful Thankyou

Stayed at the Premier Inn and thought I'd give this place a try as I didn't fancy the Carvery being offered by the adjacent establishment. Decor is dated, food ok but nothing to write home about. Basically a local trying to do food but not quite succeeding. Maybe with a lick of paint it might be a more welcoming place but I'm unlikely to revisit.

Having been recommended to this pub for an evening meal I can best summarise it by saying it is OK but nothing special.As previously mentioned prices are somewhat high for pub food (ham,egg& chips £9.00+). Surroundings a little dated but not an issue.Worth a visit but contain your expectations as I can only say I would not recommend to my friends.

We were staying in the area and wanted somewhere to have an evening meal. We had been advised against another place and informed that this would serve good pub grub. The whole place is very clean throughout. The hosts are very friendly and there is a variety of food on the menu. Mike Rowave seems to be the chef but nonetheless the food is of good proportion and quality. If you just want some good food rather than gourmet, this will suit fine. Good value, good portions, good grub.

We ended up here due to being disapointed elsewhere. Ordered our food and really enjoyed it after a short wait . The staff were very helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble . I for one will be adding this one to my "must do again " list !!

De zaak was vrijwel leeg toen we er binnenkwamen, en dat had al voldoende waarschuwing moeten zijn.Ik bestelde een vegetarische Chili (Five bean chili), en kreeg een gewone 'Chili' con carne voorgeschoteld. Die leek echter meer op een Bolognaise saus waaraan bonen waren toegevoegd. De typische kruiden/specerijen (komijn, chilipoeder) die in een chili horen ontbraken.Omdat ook de schotel van mijn partner geen meevaller was, heb ik geen moeite gedaan mijn vleesgerecht door de vegetarische variant te laten vervangen.

The only "non driving option" from the Premier Inn while the Blackbrook Tavern is closed, but they are missing a chance to make a name for themselves. There's a fairly unexciting menu with many options crossed off, and the food isn't cheap. With a captive audience on its doorstep you might think they would embrace all day opening, but when we were there the pub didn't open until midday and then closed between 3 and 6pm. Some of the staff were friendlier than others!

Situated up the lane from the Premier Inn, too far to walk for older people especially in the dark as there are no pavements.We ate hear on a Friday evening and five or six items on the menu were crossed out leaving a very limited choice.The food was plentiful but uninspiring, especially the veg which had been overcooked. Also the staff seemed disinterested and their dress code let the place badly down.Would rather make the trip into Taunton and eat in Wetherspoons!

We held mum's wake here yesterday as mum had lived in the village since 1970. It was a private event, a cold buffet for 30 guests. The food was excellent, I could have asked for nothing more. The staff were very friendly and courteous. Thank-you for making the day finish on a high note.

Very close to m5 and Handy for what we did. Close to place as wellGood for a bas. Close to shopping and 20 miles to minhead.

Me and my father were staying in the Premier Inn up the road and we had had a quick beer in the pub next to the Hotel but it wasn't really ideal for us so we looked at local pups and The Ruishton was just a quick walk up the road. So at about 7pm we walked up the road (Warning, sparse pavement, wear bright stuff) to the Ruishton and found it on the corner, looks like a proper local. Had everything we wanted, Quiz games machine, sensibly priced and wide range of beers, fast friendly service. It was fairly quiet but the jukebox was going and the atmosphere was pleasant. First pints went down well so I ordered a mixed grill for around £14 pound I think, the waitress asked if I'd like it on a tab so I said yes along with 2 more beers.Food arrived very quickly, must have been about two games of spot the difference so under ten minutes. Mixed grill was FANTASTIC, meats were juicy and cooked well in good portions, the chips were thick and crispy I really couldn't have had a better meal, my Father remarked he wished he'd done the same once he'd seen how good the meal was.Service was excellent and courteous, would definitely drop in here again. 5/5

We stayed nearby and wanted something to eat quickly as it was about 8.15pm when we arrived,quite a good choice on the menu at reasonable prices,typical pub grub.The service was very slow but they had been quite busy by the amount of people at tables but most had finished eating so we thought we would be served quickly,unfortunately this was not the case.When the food did appear it looked and tasted very good.All five of us had mains and desserts and they were all great.So if you have plenty of time this is a great little pub to pop in and enjoy well cooked tasty food.

Went here while staying in the premier inn, having already been twice to the adjacent carvery. A short walk down the road without a path most of way is this pub. Quite a large interior with 2 sides one restaurant the other the pub side. Having only my credit card asked if I could open a tab, no problem but asked to keep my card, also a small charge for using this. Food menu was average if not a little dated, and little pricey if I'm honest. Food and beer were both o.k. But nothing to write home about. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Compared to the carvery I'd had for the previous 2 nights I would deffinatly recommend. Would I go out of my way to go there though, sorry to say no, not really.

When I saw the hand written sign outside the Premier Inn just up the road I gave the landlord credit for initiative. Do not be fooled. Good food - no. Good beer - no. Pleasant surroundings - if you like being stuck in a 1970s time warp. My wife had the fish pie, sorry mashed potato with 1 half prawn and added peas and sweet corn. I had liver and onions in a Yorkshire 'leather' pudding. The IPA lived up to its title - incredibly poor ale and the stout reminded me of 'liquafruita '- for those who are old enough to remember it. They say that time is a great healer, but nearly 2 months after my visit the memory is still with me.

We only went here the once despite it being fairly close. We ordered sunday lunch and beer. The food at best was mediocre with the meat being that thin pre sliced stuff. The staff were not at all friendly despite me saying that we had just moved to the area. No warm welcome or friendly banter here. To cap it all after paying the bill and whilst walking home i realised that we had been overcharged. I didnt go back and complain but i wont be going back. The staff are fools as i would have potentially spent a lot of money there over the years.
