The Star Inn in Sedgemoor

Superb Sunday lunch, exceptional customer service and proper local beer. The food is fantastic here, and I would recommend to anyone looking for great food in a great location.

I would highly recommend the food lunch was excellent. The owners made us feel very welcome The service was quick and friendly.

Absolutely great meal with the family. Portion sizes were huge! The quality of food was fabulous too. Lovely owners, who are always considerate of our son who has Autism.

Called in on 22nd of January as a stop off before collecting family from Bristol Airport. Welcomed at the bar by Luke who's an excellent host, cheerful and friendly. Food was also top notch, steak with blue cheese sauce and a really awesome burger which included some ham hock. Lovely. Two good desserts. Don't know if we will visit again but can't fault the pub, bar, food and another special mention for Luke. Excellent visit.

First time at the star for many years .Had fabulous food all three courses. Will be returning very soon .friendly staff.

Extremely welcoming and incredible food. Highly recommend.

Popped in on the way past at about 7:30 on a Friday night looking for food and a drink. We're given a table immediately in an almost full restaurant. The food was excellent and the staff were very friendly. Our mains were about £15 each. We were offered 3 courses for £20 but didn't have the time. Will definitely call again on future journeys. Thanks

Excellent! Stopped for lunch en-route to Bristol. Delicious food - fresh, inventive and thoroughly tasty. The landlord was really friendly and welcoming. Beer was also great. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning.

Went for my Fathers 90th birthday. The food and service was excellent. They managed to cater individually for a member of the family who has celliac disease and a vegetarian option. They made us very welcome and did not mind that we bought along our young puppy and 7 month old baby. Cannot recommend this establishment enough. Nothing was too much trouble and the helpful friendly welcome we received made the day for my Dad even more special. Thank you. Sally Escott

Lovely place one of the best Sunday roasts I have had from a pub. Staff very friendly and although quite full the sound wasn't over powering so my elderly Mother could still hear everyone

Great food, lovely atmosphere, superb staff, good beer/wine, excellent value, this 16th century pub is outstanding and will definitely visit again

Great food, lovely staff. Well worth a visit.

Stopped for a meal , the food was very very good and service very very friendly Food very high standard

Dogs allowed. Very friendly staff, great food, good range of drinks.

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.

Absolutely fantastic!! Very attentive to ourselves, toddler and dogs! Food was incredible!

Came here whilst passing through . Lovely welcome, friendly staff and lovely food..very dog friendly gave out fogs treats and lots.of attention. I recommend this pub

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.

Came with family for a Sunday roast. I checked if there were vegan options and was told the chef was vegan and so had high hopes. The only option was roast beetroot wellington with vegetables and gravy minus the cauliflower cheese and Yorkshire pudding that the others had. It was very bland, they had run out of mint sauce and I felt it was poor value compared to other pub roasts I’ve enjoyed. The roast potatoes tasted funny like they’d been cooked in dripping but I was assured it was vegetable oil. I’m still not sure, the taste was unpleasant. No dessert options when I asked. My family also felt their roast meal wasn’t as good as at other pubs. The service was very good, lovely staff. The pub is in a beautiful location with lovely views if eating outside. The interior is rather basic given the potential of this very old pub. Plenty of car parking spaces.

Wow, so glad we missed a turning and ended up here! What was meant to be a drink, snack and wee stop turned into a full-on lunch. Food (all cooked to order) was delicious and the staff friendly and welcoming. Warning: bring a big appetite with you - we had to take some of ours home in a doggy bag. (There are small-plate options.) Thank you😊

Stopped for a meal. Really friendly family run pub The food was really good and portions were large. So don't order too much. The price was good too. Recommended

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.

Absolutely fabulous! The food was so good and fresh, really tasty. The staff are so friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Amazing food, friendly staff and very genuine landlord

The owners are lovely people, unfortunately the food is below standard and not worth the money.

Excellent local pub serving excellent food. Service is also very good. Definitely a pub to return to

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.

Not worth the detour. Unless you're a local you won't be served.

Found this place very clean, very friendly. Will go back with friends for evening meal

Excellent food, roast dinner perfectly cooked . Will definitely go back. Hopefully can book my family christmas here. Very friendly staff and nice restaurant and garden.

Came for a Sunday lunch on a whim and it was absolutely stunning! The roast was probably one of the best we’ve eaten out in the area, portions were of a very good size and meat cooked perfectly. Welcoming atmosphere and staff, would recommend and definitely go back!

We had a very good lunch at The Star. Staff, menu choices, atmosphere etc really welcoming. Will certainly visit again.

First time not the cheapest but good fresh tasty food well cooked recommend to anyone

Excellent spot for food and a drink Lovely garden area to relax in the sunshine and eat delicious food I unfortunately fell nearby injuring my ankle made it back to the pub where the owner kindly fetched me ice for my ankle and offered to drive me back to our campsite nearby. Very grateful

The food is beautifully presented and delicious! Highly recommend!

Solo visit today with the dog and my drone. Lovely welcome and a lovely sit in the garden for a while using the drone and being observed by Freddie with a pint Inside the staff were exceptionally friendly and I had amazing meal of Lamb Rump , with pressed Lamb and roasted vegetables Great couple of hours and will go again. Might take the Mrs !

Arrived at around 1345 Bar staff v friendly Would have changed a drink as we added to much lemonade to the wine. Carvery was excellent loads of meat and Veg All in all 10/10 well done team

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.

Lovely little lunch stop! Great pub grub, very generous portions and amazing chips. Very friendly service too!

Food was good. Friendly service. Good beer.

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.

My brother and I popped in to The Star for a bite to eat on the way back from Bristol Airport, encouraged by its many excellent reviews, and I'm very glad we did. The Butcombe Original ale was very welcome, the service was quick and friendly, and the food was simply superb, and quite reasonably priced. We will definitely return the next time we're passing.

Lovely pub with a great menu. Outside needs a facelift but don't let that put you off. Warm welcome inside & food is very reasonably priced

Very good food and excellent service

Sunday lunch, really enjoyable. Good pint too. Thanks.

Stopped here for some food on the way up to Bristol. A lovely place, amazing food & polite welcoming staff...

Lovely Sunday Roast and friendly staff.

The Star at Star is our new favourite local. Absolutely brilliant menu, with the biggest, bestest ploughman's you're going to see and done well kept beers Dog friendly too. Recommended.

Stopped in here on the way back from Bristol airport to get some much needed food. I had a ploughman’s which was wonderful. My partner had ham, eggs and chips, which were also wonderful. I would highly recommend this pub for its food. It was late afternoon on a Saturday so it was quiet in there.

Great place, great food, great prices, great staff, and dogs are welcome, so even better.

What an excellent find! We were looking for an evening meal and happened upon this gem. The host was very welcoming, the food was wonderful - we had a main, a pudding and drinks, and there's parking too. Highly recommended.

Good food at decent prices. Friendly staff and swift service. What more could you want?

Best food we've had all week in the area while on holiday with lovely staff and gorgeous food, also had our two year old with us that was treated so well by the staff, definitely a great place for kids

Food was awesome, staff friendly which made it an very enjoyable, highly recommend .

Nice and quiet country pub, great place to chill out. Food is excellent and service great. Thank you.

Just had a lovely spot of lunch at the Star at Star. Great food and a warm welcome from Tonka & Cas!

Now this is one up and coming! From the outside a bit dated but once you get in a TARDIS - lots of rooms and the new team will get a Michelin star soon! Fully recommend it!

Excellent food andcservice as always

We were looked after by the lovely Luke today. He was so refreshingly warm and kind. The food was divine and the atmosphere was lovely. Perfect end to our brilliant weekend. Thank you!

Really loved this place, great atmosphere quite big and fantastic food. Really is a brilliant independent pub that id highly recommend you swing by. Apparently Sunday roasts are supposed to be great.

Xmas eve meal for large group they were really accommodating for us had a great day thank you

Good food very friendly helpful staff

Was good before the change of hands but even better now. Spot on for a local pub.

Excellent service with a smile and very attentive nothing was too much trouble. 3 of us had the turkey,leek and mushroom pie. Absolutely lovely and very big portions. We are definitely going back. We also had a pudding and a couple of coffees. Good value.

Beautiful food, lovely place to go for food or even just a cofee/pint. Staff are amazing and owner was nice too. Definitely be going again cheers for the great meal guys.

Really enjoyed a welcome break and a nice cup of tea. Great service and a warm welcome, looking forward to going again

What a great meal! Phil and Liam the chefs popped out to ask me how it went. What guys! I will be back.

Thoroughly enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and the lovely food, highly recommend, look forward to returning A+++

Beautiful place, with great food and a wonderful, friendly team!

The minuet we entered a friendly young mam showed us to our table we were told everything was cooked fresh and if we wanted to make any slite changes they would be happy to do so. All six meals arrived at the same time, and everyone enjoyed their meal. The owner is obviously trying hard to make this pub work.

Celebration with 10 friends. Food order was very diverse but all arrived on time and together. Terrific atmosphere, clean and friendly.

Food was really nice, enjoyed it but the portion size wasn’t great!!! Need to up the portion size and I think more local people would use this pub if you did..

We were a family of 6 eating out for lunch. Delicious food, brilliant service. Genuinely blown away by the place. Can’t fault any of it. Reasonably priced as well.

We went here for a family lunch on a rainy Saturday afternoon. The food was excellent and the service was great. Really nice place and definitely recommend.

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.

We visited here again for an early evening dinner and what can I say, absolutely lovely smart clean premises. Very good atmosphere and very friendly and polite and welcoming staff. The choice of meals are excellent and well priced. All of the food is absolutely delicious and first class. Well worth a visit and I would definitely recommend The Star 🌟.

Great be place to eat, warm and friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Very tasty homemade food.

Had Sunday lunch and have to say was fantastic. Staff very efficient and friendly.

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

Excellent food our new go to restaurant when going up to Bristol airport

Great home cooked food. It is the best Beef Sunday roast I have had out dinning.

Lovely pub great food and good service friendly staff

Went in for Sunday Lunch. First time for a long time. Has had a major refurbishment ongoing but the atmosphere and surroundings are much improved Sunday lunch was the best we have had in a while. Recommend to anyone without a doubt 👍

Warm, friendly and helpful. Food sublime. The Star staff went out of their way to provide a exceptional vegan option for us. We had empty plates, full stomach's and smiles all round. We tipped well because our waiter could not be more genuine and appropriately engaging. If you like great food, you will find out on your visit. ENJOY🤤

VEGAN pub meal with restaurant service, yummy homemade veg burger on a bun with vegan mayo, chips and generous side order of broccoli spears etc. Affordable and simply delicious after a long journey, why cook at home? Highly recommend.

Amazing food, reasonably priced and friendly staff. We popped in with dogs and had a really warm welcome, the food was absolutely amazing. We will be back

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!

Went for my Aunts 91st Birthday, all had Sunday lunch and it was brilliant. Aunt was a chef, so I was very apprehensive, whether it would meet her high expectations! And it did, she was very impressed, so we'll be going back. Highly recommend.

Superb food and excellent service! Lovely gents serving were thoughtful and attentive. I had the prawn tagliatelle which was delicious, highly recommend!

Well I wish I got photos. We had two ploughman's, a pig mac burger and a portion of tripled cooked chips. Amazing. Great staff who were super friendly. 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. Will be coming back to this great pub for sure.

Fantastic food & service, staff very attentive and knowledgable, we had a gluten free diner with us and a great selection was available, nothing was too much for the staff, we would definitely return

Wonderful warm welcome and 100% attention. Delicious food - big portions! Thank you for a lovely meal 👍😍

We came from Weston to visit this pub as we had heard great reviews, and it didn't not disappoint, a great menu, along with some amazing specials, we did all 3 courses and couldn't fault any even our 6 yr and 8 yr old very...

Good food portion and the desserts are okay, just a touch on the pricey side specially for the chocolate brownie that my friend had
