We popped in on the off chance this was dog friendly pub. It is a very dog friendly pub with excellent food. Great food, great music on the speakers, very friendly staff. A welcome treat. We will be coming here again. A good selection of Thatchers ciders. Good value for money as well. We were very happy. We will be back.

So impressed with the roast. Great veggie option and the staff are so accommodating. Been here a fair few times and standard always great.

We first visited approximately 5 years ago, we were pleasantly surprised, it was fresh & vibrant. Not so on this visit. Rather than the fresh pine, we were meant with dark grey austere paintwork, which benefit from a good dust. The dining furniture is showing considerable wear & tear, the chrome being dated. Staff are great, friendly & attentive, the food was tasty & enjoyable. Not sure we will dine there again.

We randomly picked this pub/restaurant out as it was on our way to Bristol Airport. We were all very impressed with food , ambiance & hospitality. The food was outstanding all for a reasonable price. The landlord was very convivial & made us very welcome. The curry was lovely & very generous as was all the food we ordered. The ploughman’s our friends had was the best I’ve ever seen . Pity this place isn’t close to us as we would be using this more often.

We took a chance as it was close to a beautiful walk. Without a doubt the best Vegetarian wellington around. All our roast dinners were cooked to perfection and full of flavour. Very friendly staff too, we will be back.

Landlord is very welcoming and genuine. You can feel the passion he has for this pub and the customers. Good selection of drinks. Nice to see supporting local businesses. Now the important bit...the food. The menu is just enough options for all. And what they do is impeccable. I used the words amazing to describe my beef cob french dip style. The hubby had ham, egg and chips...may be simple but with top quality produce and cooked perfectly you cannot ask for more. We will absolutely be returning in the near future.

My husband and I came here for the first time during our stay in Cheddar. Although the pub itself is dated and needs modernisation, it was reassuringly quiet and calm inside compared to the busyness of the restaurants in Cheddar Gorge. The staff were very polite and welcoming. The food was lovely. My husband had the ribeye steak and it was full of flavour and cooked to perfection. I had the vegetarian burger with a gluten free bun (I have a gluten intolerance) and fries. I did enjoy my food, the chips especially, but the burger wasn't amazing. I would have liked to have had more choice in terms of gluten free and vegetarian options. Having said that, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Star because the quality of the food is very good.

Stopped here for lunch en route to the airport & couldn’t have been happier. Delicious, well presented food, much better than your average ‘pub grub’, more restaurant quality but at excellent value. Really friendly staff & great service. The only reason I put 3 stars for atmosphere is that it was really quiet as it was a Thursday but I imagine it gets busy at weekends. Definitely recommend!

Lovely pub, we visited for a late lunch on way to airport. Menu was typical pub grub with some specials daily. Food was delicious, very generous portion size and the most amazing chips. Delicious. Very friendly service too. Good size outdoor seating area away from the road. It was quiet when we visited so can’t comment on atmosphere in general but it was a lovely sunny day so we made use of the outdoor space. Will definitely re-visit.

Despite being local for many years, we hadn't eaten here before. We had vegetarian courses and the food was surprisingly good. Quite large portions - a bit too large really - and well cooked. The service from the dedicated young staff was a cut above. The decor wasn't really to my taste, reminding me of the eighties, but I'd be happy to eat here again.

Probably one of the best roasts I've eaten in a long time.. beautifully presented. Huge Yorkshire filled with meat. ( I had beef) . It's not a carvery but you don't go hungry.. generously filled plates of meat and crispy roast potato's. Separate sharing platter of other veg and the cheesiest cauliflower cheese.. individual pots of thick meaty gravy... its an absolute delight 😊 Plenty of free parking and helpful staff.. I'd give it 6 stars tbh.

We were going for a walk and we asked to book a table for Sunday lunch. We asked if we could park in the car park and they said absolutely fine. We turned up at 1:45 and they said everything is okay. Can we have the table we had three dogs as well they put us in an area that was absolutely lovely and clean. The food was incredible tasty, hot and lots of it. Cauliflower cheese to die for wood would advise anyone to try it as I think it had a bad reputation years ago but the new landlord has certainly changed it and we will be going again. This is the third time we’ve been here.

Cannot recommend this pub enough! My husband and I visited Saturday evening with our 3 year old for dinner on a last minute weekend away. Despite the fact a huge party was taking place in the function area, which would have understandably taken up a lot of the staffs time, the service was excellent. The food was amazing, even my fussy toddler loved it and prices were very reasonable. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The landlord went above and beyond to make sure we got home safe when we weren’t able to get a taxi. We will absolutely be visiting again! 10/10

Thought we would pop in to see what has changed since it's under new management. Ordered the Mushroom Risotto and Tagliatelle which were both delicious. It is a welcome menu given that most of our local pubs have now been taken over by Butcombe and all offer the same stuff, a really varied menu too, so something for everyone. Super fresh ingredients and great service. We will be back soon!

We stopped here by chance having decided toget off the congested M5 on our way to Cornwall. What a good decision! Julie had what she described as the best ploughmans she ever had. There were 3 different types of cheese (cheddar,brie,stilton), ham, a pork pie,a delicious small loaf, butter, salad,grapes,celery, coleslaw and chutney. It looked as good as it sounds. I had the turkey club with layers of turkey, brie, bacon, cranberry, tomatoes and lettuce. Delicious! To cap it all everyone was really friendly and efficient. We will be back!

Was a great stop on our way back to Devon from Bristol Airport. If I had to say anything bad, it would be the lack of mobile signal to leave this review... they do have free WiFi but you have to tap like a mad person to find the hidden checkbox to agree to the T&Cs to connect.

We shared a meal here with colleagues. The location is great being on the outskirts of Bridgwater, and the building looks and feels like a 'proper' country pub, inside and out. Staff are friendly and efficient, and we all enjoyed our meals. Good selection of local beers and the food menu changes regularly.

Superb atmosphere, the best steak I’ve had in my life! (10oz fillet) chef was so down to earth and welcoming - showed us different cuts of steak and told us about their source. Went above and beyond for service - orders taken quickly and all staff friendly and polite. Felt a very cosy and happy little village pub. Will definitely be back for more steak and the fresh salad bowls that come with it! :) Thank you so much ☺️
