The Travellers' Rest in Bath and North East Somerset

The worst Sunday roast I’ve ever had. After a 40 minute wait for our food to arrive and nobody came to explain why the wait. I was beginning to think it’s going to be extra special . How wrong was I Plain pan fried chicken breast , huge Yorkshire pudding full of baking powder. The roast beef was not roasted it was a steamed beef, I didn’t eat it as it was quite slimy 🤮 The roast potatoes were frozen and deep fried as well as tasting of garlic from something else that had been cooked in the same fryer. The cauliflower cheese was frozen veg and the cheese sauce was not cooked as it was watery and very grainy texture. The temperature of the food was below the safe holding temperature (above 63 degrees) The waitress was not experienced enough to let her customers know they were having a problem in the kitchen she just stayed out of the way. I certainly would not recommend the restaurant, the only good thing is the view.

We go here often for food and drinks, we’ve fallen in love with the staff, atmosphere, fantastic food and amazing views across the countryside. The menu has plenty of choice and the food is 5* Would definitely recommend to anyone.

We come here often for food and drinks, what keeps bringing us back is the amazing food and brilliant staff who can't do enough for you. The setting is great too, we love to sit out in the sunshine looking at the fantastic views. We are spoilt for choice with the menu and we've only ever had fantastic food! The Sunday roasts are so good!

What can I say about travellers Rest ? The food is Banging most amazing fresh food beautiful scenery amazing staff my favourite place to go with friends Thank you for your hospitality and Amazing food

Called in for lunch, having been diverted off the M5 on the way to Weymouth. Unfortunately the pub was closed for redecorating but the licencee was so kind in letting our grandchildren use the toilets as they were desperate. The pub itself looks lovely and I'm sure when finished it will be fabulous. Just a Thank you to the owners. Bless you.

We visited here with a large family lovely pub and atmosphere, upon arrival we were told a few things wasn't available fine fair enough, we ended up waiting a hour and a half for our food upon arrival when we received our roast there was bare minimal gravy no Yorkshire puddings which is the star of the show pretty disappointed as we weren't told when ordering our meals the children's meals weren't all that great there was a handful of chips if that, when pudding came there was only a choice of ice cream or rice pudding we left pretty deflated. Overal the food was nice maybe we came at the wrong time.

We came to the Traveller's Rest to check it out before booking a Sunday lunch with the family. The greeting was friendly and informative. The menu was comprehensive and the food was delicious. There was a slight wait for food, but just as you would expect for cooked to order food. The food was good quality, hot and tasty. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We will be booking our family Sunday lunch and are looking forward to it. The building was obviously a typical village pub in the past. Through the door to the left for the bar, to the right for the lounge bar, but is now one open plan area with a large and bright conservatory taking advantage if a far-reaching view of the Mendip hills. There is a large patio for al fresco dining and also a fair sized car park.

Really nice meal. Very nice food and lovely staff. We took our 1 year old daughter and they couldn’t be more accommodating even gave her some bubbles to leave with! Good prices and all the food cooked fresh and to a very high standard. We will definitely be returning very soon!

Absolutely fantastic afternoon great food great service and staff much better now with new owners thank you all definitely coming back for more

Very dissapointing lunch, I ordered Goujonettes of fish with chips, but it came as a big piece of deep fried fish and very overcooked, I didn’t expect fish n chips as I know it, my sister ordered a cheese & spring onion omelette which was bland & tasteless, and the salad with it was soggy and unappetising.

Arrived without booking seated straight away drinks order taken .. busy so a little wait for the food but well worth the wait , I had fish and chips 10/10 my parents hade chicken supreme all freshly cook and piping hot . We will be back

We came here as a family group of seven. We had five different meals and each of us thoroughly enjoyed our food. The staff were warm, friendly and very helpful. The pub itself was lovely and had a great atmosphere. All in all, a great evening at a nice pub with lovely staff. Thanks team

Excellent food. Excellent staff. The food was delicious.. the views are stunning. Lovely friendly pub with great food.

Well what can i say....hubby and i stopped here for a "light"lunch before our 4 hour drive home back to Essex. Arrival was warm & welcoming ✅️drinks service fast✅️Food came out with in good time ✅️portion size ✅️✅️ the food was piping hot and so delicious✅️😋 if you find yourself in the area its a definite MUST! Reasonably priced for the amazing quality of food! I had to use the ladies, could do with a freshen up but the sweetest little touch was the femine products free of charge and body spray & hairspray 🥰 if you need them ❤️ Will definitely return if ever back in the area. 😊

Called in on the off chance after driving by many times, it was worth it. The halloumi burger was amazing and my partner had the steak which was cooked perfectly. Would highly recommend

Brilliant food and good beer, wonderful people and just a fantastic place to visit. The view from the beer garden is the best around!! The Goats 🐐 are awesome too!!

For me, the main draw was the separate gluten-free menu which always gives me confidence. I had GF whitebait for the first time in 7 years & it was delicious! The small fish & chips for £10.00 was a real bargain & served piping hot. Advise sticking to the Classics as Singapore noodles not so good. Try to book in advance & ask for a table near the window where you get stunning views. Staff under pressure, but remained calm & friendly, & we didn't wait too long for our food.

Very disappointing visit for Sunday lunch with friends. Roast beef meals arrived cold, returned after being reheated in microwave. Beef was hard to cut and whole meal was tasteless. I cannot believe a chef would produce such a poor meal. Service was average and no one asked if everything was ok. A 250ml glass of Merlot was £10 which must be a 500% mark up! The only saving grace was the pudding and I wish I had just had that. If you are looking for a tasty Sunday lunch I would not advise visiting here.

Me and my business partner visited the restaurant where they managed to fit us in for a Sunday Lunch where we had a meeting after seeing mixed reviews online and wanted to make our own perspective on the pub. We were pleasantly impressed with the food (although they could add a few more vegetables) and will be coming back again. The only thing I questioned was the bar lady who seemed to be quite rude to the young waiter who was doing a brilliant job for a fully booked restaurant and only other member of staff, it seemed as though she was putting a lot of pressure on him when he didn’t seem to be doing anything out of place as he was lovely when taking our order and serving our food. Apart from this, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal with the Travellers Rest and will be back to try the Main Menu. Kate & Sean

Having been recently taken over we had high hopes this would be our go to place to eat. The menu looked interesting and different although it did seem rather expensive which is acceptable if the food is really good but on this occasion the hike in prices could not be justified and the meals were very disappointing The fish ordered by 3 of us was undercooked, soggy and tasteless and the Asian noodles were completely smothered in a runny sauce Unfortunately none of us could say we enjoyed our meals but at least the young lad who served us did his job well and was a credit to the team

Not sure what has happened here. Things have become very expensive, drinks included as these seem to have gone up in price twice since being taken over. The food is quite ordinary but priced way above that. Such a shame as it started off well but it has now priced us out of visiting which is sad as we have been real supporters of the TR.

My wife and I had our dinner here this evening which was wonderfully average. Firstly the bar staff were very inattentive when we were trying to alert someone to the fact that we had booked a table. My original order for both food and drink were both “off the menu”, however I needed to order and wait ages before I was told this! Also our table was very sticky so the level of cleaning should be improved. We won’t be coming back.

Fantastic scenic spot. Lovely views of the countryside. . We had such lovely meal. Staff so welcoming and friendly. They can make a mean Aperol Spritz! Delicious ! Our meal was perfect and beautifully presented. Highly recommend!

I visited the Traveller’s Rest last night for dinner with my boyfriend and another couple. The staff were really welcoming and friendly and were patient with us when choosing our orders. We all had main courses and desserts and everything that was served was of excellent standard. The strawberry cheesecake was particularly light and delicious. We cannot wait to return to try some of the other options on the menu!

Just visited Travellers Rest for lunch. Excellent meal and service. It,'s refreshing to find a pub restaurant that serves good pub grub of high quality at a reasonable price. Would highly recommend tp anyone.

We visited the Travellers Rest for a meal last night and the food was fantastic. Between us, we had a wide range of food from the menu and each dish was delicious, cooked to perfection, with generous portion sizes. The staff were so lovely and friendly and made us feel really welcome, even in these strange times of eating out with masks etc. I rarely leave reviews, but we had such a lovely time, with fantastic food and service that I couldn’t not. If you are thinking of eating out, you will not be disappointed if you visit The Travellers Rest.

They have done the covid precautions good and the food is ok. Unfortunately we were let down by the fact we had 2 kids meals which are not cheap at £7.50 each only to find out when we got home that the kids should of had a drink and a dessert with there meal but no one told us this or offered anything which was bad of the staff. New Menu is limited in choice and prices have gone up. Not great value anymore. Will not be rushing back.Great location though and good outside space.

The landlady and the staff didn't welcome us at all, I felt as though they were doing us a favour, yet I've been there lots of times ( never again, from now on). The menu was very basic, whereas before there was a wider choice. I had fish and chips, the batter was a bit soggy and unappetising, the chips were sparse and the "clotted cream" ice cream turned out to be your common or garden vanilla variety. There wasn't any "Did you enjoy your meal?" and "Thank you, come again". I'll cross this pub off my list.

Came here as a group of 5, and had a great time here. Safety measures in place were excellent, tables were set out so that you were safely out of everyone else's way without taking away the atmosphere. Staff were all friendly and happily going along with the rubbish jokes being made by some of the group! Food was excellent - I had the double cheeseburger with bacon which was great! Followed by the brownie, which is the BEST brownie I've ever had!! Will definitely be returning.

Beer garden had lovely views and a sheltered area too incase it rains. Food was delicious, typical pub grub menu which was perfect. Staff were lovely and really supporting keeping us safe with their hygiene practices

Came here for dinner a few nights ago as we have just moved to the village. We wanted to try out all the pubs and made the most out of the eat out to help out scheme. We were greeted at the entrance and were asked to sanitise our hands and were shown to our table. We asked if we could sit outside as the view on the decking is incredible! This was fine with the staff however it looked as if it was going to start raining just after we had received our drinks. We moved inside and felt very comfortable eating our food inside the restaurant due to the strict one way system in place and the reminder to sanitise our hands after coming in from outside. The food was classic home cooked pub food but was excellent! The steak was cooked perfectly and was delicious! We will be making more trips to The Travellers Rest in the future due to the lovely staff who work there and great food and views!! Would like to say a special thank you for making us feel relaxed and being so attentive :)

Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and I felt very safe visiting a pub for the first time with an elderly relatively. However I would think twice about going back as the food was awful. Firstly, my glass of wine looked like a glass of water and tasted like it had been diluted. The Sunday lunch was terrible, the beef was over cooked and completely tasteless, the veg and potatoes were frozen and were also tasteless. The gravy tasted like gravy granules and was very thin. I was very disappointed as the setting is amazing and with a little more effort could have been so much better. I really wouldn’t have minded paying more for a decent meal.

We stopped here for a late lunch today. Service was great and staff were taking every precaution in light of COVID (socially distancing, one way system through the pub and table service). We had the nut roast and turkey roast. Both were generous portions and good value. We had a drink out on the terrace before we left, which had a great view of local fields. We will definitely be back in future. Thank you!

Having been here for roast with my family for my birthday the roast dinner wasn’t actually that bad just not enough veg or gravy. And if you wanted more gravy you had to pay what I don’t agree with.. very expensive also.. unsure if I’ll visit again for that reason . Can get better elsewhere for cheaper

Just stopped here for coffee on our way home from holiday after a long drive so pleased we did, walked in to a lovely place decorated for Christmas with very nice and kind people happy to see us.Everything was so clean.I only wish we had time to stop for lunch but will go back one day.

We went here early evening as a party of 6. Two couples in their 60’s and the parents of the two brothers (so, nearly 90).Good clear access and understanding staff appreciating that the oldest couple don’t move quickly.Plenty of choice and all the meals were decent quality with helpings that were more than large enough. The desserts were especially good. Happily eat here again.Our only concern would be ensuring we were sat somewhere warm. With the parents against a radiator we were ok but the conservatory wasn’t the warmest.

Visited on Sunday, as a meeting place with my family. There were 18 of us, and I understand that large parties can be a little challenging to deal with as going bar staff and waitresses. We ordered a mixed range of food, including roasts, lasagne, fish and chips and steaks. First of all, I couldn’t understand why the bar staff were bringing drinks to our table one drink at a time. It would’ve looked much more professional to use a tray and bring numerous drinks at one time. Myself and partner had roast beef and it was average. The meat a little tough, Yorkshire puddings definitely not homemade but frozen, a small amount of veg and extremely lacking gravy. At £11.95 I think this is a little steep for what we got. I had a chocolate brownie for pudding and it was very nice, however my uncle’s pudding was somehow forgotten about, even though my auntie had pre ordered every item of our meals including puddings and sides, so we couldn’t understand what the mix up was with this and it was a little disappointing. The woman at the bar seemed unsure how to work the till quickly and efficiently, again far from professional. We wouldn’t return.

Only found this place on the Internet as wife was looking for somewhere with more than 1 choice for a gluten free meal. Have driven past this place hundreds of time. Great food, lovely friendly staff, a proper old pub. Will be back again.

Visited with my husband, I’m gluten free and could not ask for better food, a very good gluten free menu, with real food, not a jacket potato in sight, the food was absolutely delicious, the staff are friendly and extremely helpful, I will be returning to this pub again, it’s the first time in two years ( since being gluten free) I’ve been given a choice of food

We went for a meal friends and booked a table for four at 7:30pm. On entering the pub, we were struck by the VERY bright lighting. It’s a very traditional pub, with typical carpet and furniture of its type, with lights up so high it had the feel of a holiday camp dining room! However, the service was friendly and efficient, and the food was absolutely great, fresh, and piping hot, with plenty of choice! The only thing lacking was any sense of atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend for food and staff but drop a point for ambience, such a shame, because it can make or break a nice occasion.

good friendly staff. good value for money with a good range of food, including gluten-free menu. Nice beer garden with a few goats wandering around in an adjacent paddock.

Great staff, great value for money and great pub! Highly recommended! Great big beer garden would definitely come here again!

We were staying close by on 01st and 02nd August for our Golden Anniversary and were looking for a nice pub to eat each evening without having to travel too far. We had booked at a different pub but on the way back to our hotel we were passing this pub and thought we would pop in. Glad we did as when we asked about an evening menu the lovely lady, who I presume was the landlady gave us such a nice welcome and could not do more. Because of her response we got that feeling that this was a nice pub and just up our street so we cancelled the other booking and booked for two nights at The Travellers Rest. We had two great meals in a real friendly pub which was just a stone throw from where we stayed at the Summerhouse B&B. The food is wholesome pub grub, nothing fancy but you will not be disappointed. Great landlady who works her butt off, thanks for two great meals and we will call back again.

I came here for a meal with friends and all started well until the food came out. I ordered a lasagne which came with a bowl of side salad. In the salad I noticed a really long dark hair.. I'm not usually one to complain but when there is hair in my food I felt I had to. There was no apology or anything just an "oh ill get you another one" which I kindly declined. When eating my food and talking with my friends there was an older lady with grey hair behind the bar who rudely said "well it wasnt my hair" whilst looking at me. She quickly looked away when she noticed I had heard her. Really unprofessional in my opinion being made to feel I did something wrong. I won't be returning.

We arrived much later in the evening than booked, having rung to say we'd been stuck in traffic. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, and the food was delicious and the portions generous. Lovely views from the conservatory and garden. Good straightforward and tasty food, not 'fine dining' but just what we needed. Highly recommended.

The mixed grill was a tough steak, 1 sausage, gammon and chicken and chips, no peas, tomatoes, mushroom or onions a poor plate of food for £22.00. It was cold and look pale and boring. Very disappointed.

I visited the Travellers Rest for the first time yesterday with 3 friends. It had been recommended to me and what a really lovely evening we had. We all had the small steak deal with home made crumble. It was truly excellent. The staff were so friendly, efficient and smiley, which sometimes is a rarity. We were welcomed warmly as we arrived and the whole evening was perfect. We will definitely be going back again and be recommending it to our friends.

Although it was extremely busy, it was Mother's Day, everything was good. Excellent food, served well - with a smile.

It has been a long time but we have started to come back to the TR and it has the most amazing view of the mendips from the back garden.

Popped in here whilst staying overnight in the area. The food was delicious and the staff were friendly and very welcoming. I decided to go for the mixed grill, all the food is locally sourced and it tasted incredible! Great value for money. When I am back in the area I would definitely go again. If you are in the area and fancy some delicious food and a good drink. I highly recommend this place!

The staff were very welcoming and quick to assist! Food was great, with very quick services. Would highly recommend!

Very friendly and warm staff and excellent food. Just a query for the staff however, do you purchase your skewers for the burgers pre-knotted or do you knot them yourselves for each and every burger? I’d be intrigued to know!

Visited this pub whilst at summer house bed and breakfast nearby. They were very helpful from the moment I phoned right the way through to the end. The food is very reasonably priced, service is excellent they could not be more helpful especially wanting to write down directions to Bath for us should we need them. Would definitely visit again.

Today was our first visit to the Travellers Rest for lunch.

Had a lovely meal with my husband and daughters for my birthday, had a table in the bar as we like a relaxed setting, great staff,great food, we were all stuffed !!we did share a chocolate brownie which was too yummy to resist.

A lovely evening for my sisters 60th Birthday. We were a large party of 16 all with different meals ordered. All came out perfect and in good time. Lovely staff, we were made to feel special. My sister really enjoyed her birthday. Highly recommended.

We have visited the travellers rest twice once while I was pregnant and second time with our baby boy. Both times the food was lovely- seems proper home cooked food & staff very friendly. Will visit again!!

Had christmas lunch here last year booked again for this year for 5 of us never disapointed with this place. Lovely food and lovely helpful staff will hopefully go again next year also go throughout the year always great food would throughly recommend .

Defiantly the best Sunday lunch I’ve had in years, amazing service, staff were so friendly food was outstanding came out really hot a plus for me and although they were catering for a party of about 20 on another table, we didn’t have to hang around after ordering food, dink’s were brought to our table within minutes all in all it’s a must visit

Lovely little pub on the main road of A37. It has an amazing view over the valley. Staff always attentive and vicky is always smiling.

I live locally but never really went here for a meal so thought I would give it a go. i arrived as a walk-in. I found the staff friendly and welcoming and they found us a table straight away. It was table service so we didn't even have to get up to go to the bar. The food arrived it was plentiful as I don't think any of us could even contemplate a pudding as we were all full from the Main. As we left we sat in the car and all agreed we definitely would be coming here again. So would I recommend it to others, yes definitely because as I sit here at home writing this I am still pleasantly full and contented. So all in all a 5 star success.

For our first visit to this pub we were made very welcome. On our arrival it was "take a table and we will look after you". The staff were very friendly, and the food was superb, in both look and taste. The views from the back of the pub were stunning. A thoroughly enjoyable visit, and will definitely return.

This is a typical Pub, which specialises in Food. A very comprehensive Menu, which includes small meals for those who have small appetites.

Booked family Sunday Lunch for 5 of us. Service and food was top notch. Couldn't fault it, good value roast, with good choice of meats. Nice homely atmosphere.

Varied and interesting menu. Food presented well and hot. Staff friendly and helpful. Make sure you go to the conservatory with beautiful views up to the Mendips. The beer was good and showed a clearly good cellarman, local beers on tap.

Probably the nicest thing is the view across the fields to the hills in the distance. They were particularly busy when we ate there early on Friday evening and we had to wait quite a while for our food - but they did apologise. Staff were friendly and the food was OK. For folk like myself who are not wanting massive amounts of food they have a smaller portions menu which includes a choice of two desserts in the price. My small portion was more than adequate and cooked (steak) exactly as ordered. Nothing out of the ordinary but pleasant enough and I’d eat there again if I was in the area.

Very good family birthday meal. Staff were very obliging, and even brought out the birthday cake we'd supplied with candles lit, and singing Happy Birthday. Food was very good, it felt as though it had been freshly cooked. Smaller meals are available before 9 pm, which suits a lot of people. The views outside are stunning, and it was a lovely sunny evening. Was most of all impressed with how kind and helpful all the staff were.

We were traveling down to Wells from the Midlands, typical bank holiday weekend traffic, we decided to stop for food. Having stopped at a local Toby and walked out due to lack of service. It was nice to walk into the Travellers Rest and be acknowledged straight away. (Thank you Laura). We were seated quickly and told they were busy and there might be a wait. There was a delay in getting the food but once it arrived, it was worth the wait. The menu has a good choice of food, they do a smaller portion choice for people with smaller appetites. Overall the pub is clean and has a friendly atmosphere with great views over looking the valley, it also has a good size car park

Often visit this pub for lunch with friends it always serves us well with choices from board as well as thier main menu which includes value smaller portions for pensioners nice friendly staff lovely views from the back seating area.

Today myself and a friend visited Blackmore and Langdon nursery open day we asked were the best place was to get a meal, we were recommended by Nick Langdon to go to the travelers rest , we found the food to be excellent the service first class when in the area next time we will return and recommend all our friends to visit thank you

We have just visited the Travellers Rest at short notice for an evening out.

Enjoyed my visit here met friends we dined in the conservatory overlooking some amazing views. The menu is very varied including small plate meals which we had. Plenty to eat for a lunch plus price included ice cream or coffee or tea. Good value lovely...

Great food and lovely staff. Can't wait to go again. Home made top quality food. Good selection of drinks

Booked in at the last minute to this pub for Sunday lunch, what a terrible experience. The food was appalling; the sunday roast consisted of frozen (yes really) roast potatoes, frozen packet Yorkshire puddings, frozen peas, hard dry carrots and tough beef. Three roast lunches...

We called in this pub on our way out on a Saturday afternoon, it was pretty quiet and the conservatory was quite empty, we were given a warm welcome and sat at the table, the menus were great, not only lots of choice of food...

I can definitely recommend The Travellers Rest. We were staying nearby and came in out of the blue and were blown away. The staff were great, really friendly and attentive before any food was served. Everything we ate was great, generous portions and very tasty,...

There were 19 of us plus a toddler! We were asked to pre order our main meal and all the food came out at the same time and was piping hot. Between us we had many different options from the main menu and everything was spot on! Good presentation too. Excellent friendly service and was quite busy or a Tuesday evening. This was not our first visit and food is consistently good quality...we will be back for sure!

Called in for a lunch when our walk in the area was interrupted by a hail storm. We were very satisfied with the meal and the staff were particularly friendly.

Very nice lunch. Good choice of food. Menu for the Smaller Appetite, Main Menu and special offers. Reasonably priced. Service was excellent.

Went to the Travellers' Rest for Christmas Lunch there were 5 of us. It was absolutey Fabulous the food was delilious and piping hot, Lovely friendly staff had a really good time would throughly recommend this place, have been there many times first time for Christmas meal. Fantastic thank you.

Called in on the off chance for lunch, on entering we found that it was really quite busy, we enquired at the bar for a table and were told that if we didn't mind a bit of a wait they would fit us in. To which we agreed and they found us a table, There was a really pleasant atmosphere plus it was spotlessly clean through out, the menu had an ample choice of food plus there was a specials board. You order at the bar and your food is served when ready, we had the steak and ale pie and it was absolutely superb, the meat just melted in your mouth. Couple this with ample portions of piping hot well cooked veg and you are on to a winner. This is a must stop if you are traveling the A37 either to or from Bristol.

We had a family get together here today for 35 of us and it was a lovely lunch. The food was yummy, service fantastic and location was perfect. I had the fish and chips and the chocolate orange cheesecake and would definitely recommend. With such a large party both the kitchen and waiting staff coped brilliantly even with a couple of our party arriving late.

Meal was lovely with quick service. I had a steak which was perfectly cooked! Food was of good quality and a great price too

Called in for lunch today and we were very pleasantly surprised. We had a lovely warm welcome and although very busy we had a good choice of tables. The food on the menu was not quite what I wanted as I am on a very low fat diet. This

Excellent value and choice for OAP meals. Lovely views from garden restaurant. Tasty food. Very helpful staff.

had a 3 course meal, the cost was near to £70 yes we did have a couple of double spirits but for a pub thought this was high for just 2 people. Jacket potato was a good size but was under cooked so asked for it to be microwaved more and the cook decided that he would cook a fresh one but the wife had nearly had eaten her meal before it can out and the size was only half of the first one and the waitress said they was struggling to cook it in time. The mixed grill meat was very dry, plates could have been warmed to help keep food hot. The apple crumble wasn't sweet or that crumbly. Used to go think this was a great place but very disappointed wont be going back.

Been in the Travellers Rest a couple of time but this is the 1st time we have had food , what a lovely place ,The food is great & plenty to choose from , from menu and the specials board . Staff very friendly and helpful would definitely recommend the Travellers Rest go you won't be disappointed

Called in for lunch on the way to Bristol Airport, fairly busy as they do a great lunchtime deal for the over 60's.Good food, good service, friendly staff, great views from the conservatory area, and a good range of beers.Well worth a visit but you may need to book a table.

We visit here on and off and the quality of the food is always reliably good. Generous portions and a good selection.

Three of us had meals two Sunday roasts pork and Turkey and a lasagna all were very well presented and cooked very well and tasted beautiful I was glad we booked a table as it gets very busy we have been three Times's now and will definitely be back

We had been diverted off the M5 on our way to south Dorset so after struggling through Bristol we were in need of some rest and recuperation. We certainly got it here. From the friendly welcome as we walked in through help to find us a table, guidance as to what to eat and then the service and food was excellent. The view from the window across the Chew valley is wonderful and when the weather is nice you can sit outside to enjoy it. Would thoroughly recommend it as a stop over.

We called in the Travellers' Rest on way to Bristol from Wells. This visit finished what was a very nice day out. The food- service -views all superb. I had the ham egg and chips the ham was cooked to perfection.Will certainly go back. Needless to say it was busy (no surprise) Lovely clean pub.

The occasion was a 40th Wedding Anniversary. Staff happily helped with gluten free options including a dessert. It was delicious. Other family members enjoyed roasts and lasagne. The goats entertained the children. Kind and friendly staff and a beautiful countryside view.

If you are within reasonable travelling distance of this pub and want to eat, make you way to the Traveller's Rest at Pensford. Superb views from the extended restaurant, an excellent choice of beautifully cooked dishes through out the day, served by a courteous and really friendly staff. Prices are very reasonable and if you are a senior citizen, there is a special menu for you offering outstanding value for money. Portions are very generous. We ate there two nights running and will return next time we are working in the area. Try the Turkish Delight cheese cake.

Went with my sister last minute had a lovely meal. Lasagne salad and chips very hot and tasty. A varied menu to suit all palates. Table with a fantastic review of the countryside in the conservatory wonderful on a summers evening. We had the homemade bake well tart with custard and the waffle with maple syrup yummy!! Food plentiful and value for money. Will definitely be returning again

My husband and I called in to this pub on the way back to our holiday cottage after a full day walking. What a surprise it was. The food was very good; the staff were friendly and there was no long wait for food. We both had omelette and chips which was cooked to perfection. Despite the rain, the views from the conservatory were great and what we thought was going to be a functional meal turned out to be a really enjoyable and tasty experience. Very good value too. Well done.

As always great home cooked food especially sat on the decking in the sun. Staff great very friendly nothing too much trouble, clean tidy well kept pub

Just had a meal will 11 of the family aged from 5 years to 92 years they serve food to cater for all,with a good range for the kids,and at a fair price,the sharps beer and others are kept well and the staff are very helpful. And the well kept garden/lawn is good for the kits,and not to forget the veiw is fantastic.

This was our third port of call looking for a Sunday roast. Llodeka said it was an hour's wait; the Toby at Whitchurch said half an hour - but had nowhere to park and so we drove on down the A37 and ended up here. We were told that: we could have the dog on the deck; they would bring food out to us there; and it wouldn't be very long. And it wasn't. Both the turkey and the lamb portions were generous [I brought some turkey home for my jacket potato next day!]; the roast potatoes were good; but the vegetables [peas, carrots & cabbage] could have been cooked a little more for my taste - but then I'm old-fashioned! I guess £10.99 for a Sunday roast isn't cheap.

Booked a table for a family gathering.Food was delicious, the staff were really friendly and the back drop of the fields made for a lovely atmosphere.
