The Tea Room at Bath Place in Taunton Deane

We went for Sunday lunch, and had to book as the pub is very busy. The wife and I had the full Sunday roast beef meal, with a dessert. The food was extremely good, generous portions of the meat and the vegetables and gravy, all of which were washed down with a good pint of beer for me, and large glass of Merlot for my wife. Everything on my plate was delicious and well cooked. Even the vegetables were really good, the taste of each standing out from the others - which is a lot more than you can say for many pub Sunday Lunches. We had a crème brûlée and a cherry waffle for desserts and they were spot-on. The food was good value for money. The service was warm and friendly, and occasionally a little slow, but the pub was packed so I can accept that the staff were run off their feet. The pub and restaurant area where we ate was well appointed, clean and tidy.

Proper oldschool 'greasy spoon', cheap, cheerful and staff are very friendly. Cleanest greasy spoon cafe I've ever been to. Granted it's not fine dining however the food's good -- my only suggestion is I wish they'd butter the burger buns. Rapid service too, food came piping hot within 10 mins of ordering. Going in here is like stepping back in time, the sort of place your Nan would take you as a kid. 10/10 Edit: I went for the half pounder burger meal but didn't want side salad, so the waitress asked if I wanted beans in lieu free of charge, you don't get service this good in Mcdonalds Edit #2: Gutted to hear that this place closes permanently tomorrow 20/12/24 after 40 years. Taunton will lose an icon and I wish the staff the best of luck and the owners a very happy retirement.

Great choice. Helpful, friendly staff. Pies to die for. Delicious quiche.

The choice of wines is amazing, the staff are always so friendly, attentive and knowledgeable! The food is INCREDIBLE, the mushroom croquettes and cheeses are some of the best I've ever tasted. We even had a cocktail last night and it was delicious and all very reasonably priced for what you get! We came to a private party here last night and the staff couldn't do enough for us all and our hosts. It was a great atmosphere and the food was just wonderful! Thank you so much, and see you soon!

Delicious coffee and vegan pastries, warm dog-friendly atmosphere. Cosy vibes paired with great customer service make this spot a true gem.
