The Woolpack Inn in Mendip

Very good lunch and helpful staff.

What a fantastic place. The staff are incredible and so friendly and the food is delicious 😋

Pop in on Tuesday for drink and food. Was greeted by Peter who was fantastic he knows what he's doing and nikki was very friendly and helpful. I had the cheese and bacon burger it was fantastic and so delicious. Big thanks to the chefs. And also thank you Charlie who was behind the bar. I will be back.

Stayed here for a solid 21 days, wonderful service from all the staff! Food was great, great selection of beers, comfortable seating area next to the open fire! Would highly recommend The Woolpack for a comfy nights sleep to anyone wanting to visit the local tourist attractions. Regards Martin 👌

Excellent pub, friendly staff, great food couldn't recommend more 10/10

Highly recommend a visit We've been a few times now and it's nice to see the same faces and staff who seem to genuinely enjoy their work. Peter is a credit to the woolpack, he's very knowledgeable about the pub and the local area and has a great sense of humour too. Recent menu change looks great too especially the burger deal. Will be back again soon

My experience with The Woolpack was brilliant. Location was easy to find. The service was fantastic. I would recommend The Woolpack to anyone.

Never drank or ate here, only popped in and out a couple times after my car had broke down however the staff (mostly the brown haired lady, sorry I didn’t get your name) was absolutely impeccable and treated me although I’d been coming here for 10+ years. Also helped me hugely with a charger, some tape and some bin bags for no charge. Nothing but good words to say, friendly atmosphere and just an all round 10/10. Thank you so much x

Great spot! Fantastic friendly service from peter and all the staff.

I came in for dinner with my mum on sunday and my roast turkey was lovely and the staff were all every friendly i look forward to coming again soon 😀

Called in for dinner. Good food and service.⁰

What a little gem in the heart of a lovely village. The Woolpack has a warm community spirit and feels home from home but with a nothing is too much trouble feel - Justine is amazing and never misses a beat - this is why we come here every month when diving at Vobster. We couldn’t recommend this lovely traditional pub highly enough for an excellent dining experience, spotless rooms and friendly helpful staff.

Came here with my daughter for bingo and dinner had such a great evening, The Beef and Ale pie was amazing and my daughter really enjoyed her chicken in a basket. I look forward to coming back for the next Bingo night and trying out the new menu 😁😋

Had dinner here on a Friday night. The beer and food were both good, prices reasonable and the staff were friendly and helpful. I will definitely return.

The service for our dining experience was amazing Emma served us and went above and beyond the food was excellent

I come here every week or so with my dad where he will have the lamb and I would either have the lasagne with chips, the cheddar and bacon burger or possibly have the lamb shank as well. The staff here are really lovely and always make it a great experience for us and the woolpack is in a very good location. Thank you to all the staff for all their hard work. Another lovely meal with the new menu

We visited The Woolpack on a Monday lunchtime, we were welcomed by a friendly face and taken to our table. We tried the new lighter bites menu which was excellent value for money and the meals were a very decent size! The food was super and we all left feeling very full and satisfied. Would definitely recommend a visit and we will be returning again!

Best gammon steak I've ever had. 😋

A really lovely place to go and eat. Family and group friendly environment

Pleasant village pub with reasonable food

Food and service were excellent. Evening was spoilt, however, by being tabled by the bar and being surrounded by rowdy, drunken locals. Ruined the evening for us, to be honest. Was hoping for a more relaxed ambience.

Always a warm welcome from friendly staff . Excellent menu , fantastic Gin selection and well kept cask ale Can’t recommend The Woolpack enough Visited again , this time on a Sunday Went for the trio of roast - superb The best thing about this pub is the team - friendly and attentive and genuinely care

Not the best! We were visiting he area and went off previous reviews! We regularly visit a Greenking pub a short distance from us and it's entirely different.

Stopped in for a few drinks with my dad on an extended bank holiday visiting family locally. Food was great my particular favorite the hunters chicken was great and exactly as I'd expect from the menu description. Peter was very welcoming and offered some great advice on an alternative cider to try so I gave the old mout Berry's and cherries a go and it did not disappoint. My dad enjoyed his perfectly poured Guinness (his words not mine) and a good fish and chips. I will definitely be back when I'm back visiting family in the future.

Very enjoyable lunch with my family. Friendly and efficient staff and good food with plenty of choice including good vegetarian options .Thank you.

Had a meal at the woolpack last night and was served by a young man called Alex. His customer service was excellent . he was polite but friendly and very efficient. he was also smartly presented . I noticed that between customers he was keeping the restaurant clean and tidy too . Thank you Alex

On the last day of our trip, we decided to stop here for a bit of lunch before leaving. I honestly wish we hadn't. Firstly, the good - We didnt have a booking, and were sat down very quickly, the server came straight over and took our drinks and food order. When my wife wanted to change her drink order, it was dealt with really well. The soup was nice Our bill was amended after complaining with no issues Now, the bad - They didn't have the pretty standard bottled beer I ordered. Also, the meal I ordered wasn't available and neither was my sons - we both changed to something that they had. We then waited for well over 45 minutes for our food, when it arrived, my sons Hunters Chicken ( although tasty ) had no cheese on it and the corn on the cob was literally frozen - I mean straight out of the freezer. My burger tasted nice, but the edges of the bun were like concrete. At no stage did anybody come over to us and apologise for the long wait we had. These aren't things that should happen, but even worse when we have waited 45 minutes for it. Also very disappointed that when we advised of our issues, that the manager didn't come to speak to us, instead leaving our server to sort it out. I fully accept this was Bank Holiday Monday and some things may be out of stock, but had we realised the wait would be so long and the issues we would have with the food, we wouldn't have stayed. Not somewhere we will be going back to.

We came in hoping for something to eat and some drinks. The service was fantastic the staff was completely amazing and so friendly. The food was delicious. Highly recommended the woolpack

Thanks Pete for looking after us...great service...love our room..no.1 been here before...spacious...def recommend

This pub has long caught my eye from the road; it looks promising. Unfortunately, the reality falls short of the exterior. The food is disappointing, and the overall premises could benefit from a deep clean. Basic dishes like roast potatoes were subpar and tasted like they were brought pre made, which is a real concern. The staff are friendly, but the experience simply isn't worth the price.

Lovely meal on route to our holiday destination and such a pretty town Food was reasonable and service was lovely Busy so book!

We had food but didn't stay overnight. So can't comment on the rooms.

Excellant service as always at The Woolpack

Pete top man , Man of many talents

We had a lovely family meal here. The staff were very friendly. Was a warm night but that didn’t affect the service which is nice as the staff must’ve been hot running around for everyone. The food was very nice and was great value.

We stopped by The Woolpack for dinner during our journey from Swansea to Bournemouth, after struggling to find a good service area. My husband discovered The Woolpack, and we decided to give it a try—and we're so glad we did! From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. The woman who served us was incredibly kind and attentive, even accommodating our request to dine outside. As for the food, we both ordered burgers, and I can confidently say they rank among the top 5 burgers I've ever had. The flavors were outstanding, and every bite was delicious. Overall, The Woolpack is the perfect spot for a meal if you're passing through the area. I enjoyed our experience so much that I felt compelled to leave this review right away. Highly recommended!

A lovely meal in lovely surroundings in a lovely part of the world. The food was great and the staff and service very friendly.

Room was boiling hot, windows wouldn't stay open, sofa bed for our daughter may as well of just been springs with no mattress diabolical for the price of £114. Food was atrocious. I am actually shocked that anyone even eats food at this place, especially breakfast. Rotten banana from the fruit basket (photo attached) Crumpets you could of built a house with. Bacon and mushrooms that had obviously been cooked the night before, mushrooms were shrivled, dry and wrinkly. All cereal was witnessed to have been left out overnight covered in clingfilm, upon my daughter helping herself, the whole bowl of cereal came out on the spoon, in the shape of the bowl. Poched eggs, bacon, soughdough and hollandaise. Came out with no hollandaise. One slice of brittle bacon and soughdough that you could of used as a door stop and two very overcooked eggs. Asked the waitress to change and informed me that it's meant to be like that. Replaced nd it was somewhat edible. But no where near worth the amount of money they are charging. Staff at breakfast were not very attentive, had to keep getting their attention out of the room. Also felt the staff didn't seem to be happy to be there and just found us annoying. Would not reccomend staying here sadly. And we won't be back.

Lovely little pub, good food, friendly service

Food is still lovely and the pilot noir is lush

Perfect pub good service friendly staff

Visited the wool pack during the week and the food and service was really good, went for Sunday lunch and the food was dreadful. I certainly would not go again or recommend to anyone

We were a group of 9 and went for a meal on the Tuesday, the service and food was so good we returned for the final night of our holidays on the Friday. Emma was our waitress both times. She was fantastic, especially with my son who has critical food allergies. She was very thorough and put myself and my son at ease, this was the main reason we returned a second time. Thank you to the Woolpack and to Emma!!

Popped in for dinner - not having booked was initially "a problem" but they son sorted a table for us. Friendly staff. Great food - had the battered fish (Tilapia) and it just melted in my mouth: highly highly recommend it.

Sunday lunch - Our third visit. Excellent food as usual. Good choice on the menu. I had Carvery (3 meats - Beef, pork and Turkey). All beautifully cooked, & served with fluffy roast potatoes, and veg. Extra gravy - no problem! My wife had chicken Caesar salad, and my daughter had a wonderfully tender Lamb Shank. Service was excellent. My only disappointment is that the amazing Nachos are not offered on the Sunday Menu. Menu prices are very reasonable, with main courses starting at £11.49.

Fantastic food and such friendly staff! They can cater from birthday parties to private lunches for old school friends that nothing is too much trouble. The gorgeous look of an old building as well as that home of home feeling means you get the best experiances time after time! Thank you to all the teamx

Had all our family over so decided to go to the Woolpack for lunch . Had a lovely meal and we even all had desserts . There is something for everyone and they even have a gluten free menu Staff are all lovely too - and we will be back Thank you

Had a lovely meal with my family for a special occasion, was made to feel really special & welcome. Nice, cozy environment :) Really enjoy coming here

We came in for dinner with our 3 children , lovely friendly atmosphere ,seated promptly and the order taken soon after . We had the brownie sundae for dessert that was lovely too . Will be back again when in the area .

Had an amazing sunday roast with the family today. Such a lovely turkey dinner and my partner had the trio of roast as he couldnt decide what to have . The team are extremely friendly and attentive . I will reccommend this place to all my friends and family. Thank you for looking after us

Booked to have Sunday lunch and so glad we did, we were shown to our table by Leanne, I had the roast beef my husband had the trio, we had extra mush, veg and pigs in blankets. Justine took our order and Emma bought our lunch. It was absolutely delicious we had every intention of having a dessert but we were to full. We definitely be back thank you the woolpack team.

Thank you for another excellent Sunday lunch, the food as always fantastic and the staff there usual exceptionally service

From the greeting at the door, reserving us 2 tables to choose from, being accommodating with our questions and food choices, plus the fantastic quality of food - we all thoroughly enjoyed it! The reason for the visit was for our mum/mum in-laws 90th birthday treat - and she loved every second and is already wanting to go out again! The restaurant host/manager and the waiter were both super polite, friendly and extremely approachable. So thank you to all the team.

Had a dirty glass, dirty chair, menu not wiped clean..food cold and awful staff behind bar. Complained but they didn't care.

Popped in as I knew they were showing the euro games and with my parents living in France I wanted to catch the France v Austria game. Lovely atmosphere with friendly staff ( in particular Peter and Casper) Both very knowledgeable about the pub itself as I had some questions about the photos on display in the bar areas. I visited on my own but certainly didn't feel alone with other customers also very friendly and respectful of the surroundings which doesn't always happen in a pub. Highly recommend and will definitely be back to this beautiful pub

Great pub - quiet village, 4 miles from Warminster - Sunday lunch - and it didn't disappoint

Best place to book a hotel very great service. Kind and friendly.

Great eating experience with an excellent host! Peter made us feel welcome and was extremely friendly to approach. Only gripe is the rude manager we could hear addressing the staff but didn’t ruin our experience.

Lovely meal, very efficient and friendly staff providing an excellent service. Room was ok, ensuite bathroom was quite tired and needed some updating.

We had dinner. Really good burgers and fantastic fish and chips. Staff are attentive and friendly. Highly recommend

The service from the serving staff is good, BUT, BAD MANAGEMENT !! AS I was ousted by a customer who ALWAYS reserves his table but there was NO reserved table sign after a certain time, plenty of other tables as the place was surprisingly empty ?? .. it totally ruined my experience and is indeed a slur on your ambiance , the management didn't have even the decency to apologise until this report so !!! SORRY too late !! You should have done this at the time !!!!!! LESSONS must reserve a table with so others avoid this embarrassing event which not only spoils the experience but can drive customers away !! THE MANAGEMENT NEED to get back to the customer immediately !! as on this occasion obviously condone this behaviour no wonder the place is empty !! I don't think I will be going back in a hurry or recommending any family or friends !!!!

Once again thoroughly enjoyed our meal,popped in on the off chance without booking and really well welcomed and looked after. Looking forward to our next visit.

Went for tea: the service was lovely staff amazing lovely restaurant 100% going back

First visit to this lovely village pub with our family. We hade a lovely warm and friendly welcome from the staff Justine, Linda and Pete. We ordered drinks and food it all came very quickly considering how busy the place was . The food was fantastic couldn't fault it 👌. The pub was extremely clean . We will definitely be returning soon .

Beautiful village pub. Wonderful staff and amazing food. Lots of food choices, including a great gluten free menu. Well worth a visit.

Excellent service and meal ,we went to the pub for a meal and to watch the rugby, we eat out regularly and the food was one of the best we have had for a long time... can't credit the staff or kitchen staff enough...thank you

We had a wonderful friendly welcome from Marie & Linda,who were exceptional at their jobs.We had our elderly mother with us who needed a bit of help to the table as she is not so able these days & they were both there to help straight away. THANK YOU BOTH : ). Also the food was delicious, Thank you to the chef Colin. We will be back.

Nice pub but we found the manageress abrupt and rude. We were going to stay for food but the way she spoke to us changed our minds. Shame because the pub itself is lovely and all the other staff seemed nice (If somewhat bullied by the boss!)

Great atmosphere with roaring fire and plenty of people enjoying the food and chat. Staff seemed to know everyone and seemed well like.

My husband and I last stayed here 30 years ago so it was a nostalgic return for two nights with breakfast and dinner. We stayed in room 11 a large double with a door that needs a good shouldering! It was a lovely large room, very comfortable large bed and sofa area. Breakfasts were great and the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and hardworking. We had a lovely stay.

Very welcoming for us and our dog,the food was good and staff very polite and welcoming. Will return again very soon,ma y thanks

Go here fairly often as local to us, never had anything bad to say about this place. The food is very reasonably priced considering everything these days, and everything we’ve ever had tastes great. Stuff are always bubbly and friendly, the atmosphere is lovely!

The place is really lovely, we were served by Marie & Linda, our chef was Colin, the food was amazing, service was excellent, would definitely go back and recommend to friends and family

Lovely mothers day lunch with family. Super friendly staff and excellent Sunday roast. Sad I couldn't use my blue light discount because it was mother's day but I was given a bottle of wine as a consolation.

Fabulous village pub with flagstone floors and a real log fire. Lovely quiet location. We stayed in a superior room which was very spacious with lovely decor. Very comfortable bed, with good quality bedding. Food was excellent, couldn't fault it at all. The staff were great, very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Special mention for Emma who was just lovely. We would definitely stay there again.😀

We regularly visit the Woolpack as it’s such a lovely pub. Great atmosphere, reasonably priced good food and friendly, welcoming staff.

Nice little pub with guest rooms. Very friendly staff, delicious pub food and good drinks.

We were served by the lovely Marie and Linda who were more than happy to accommodate us with our puppy and put us in the lovely window seat. Super friendly service throughout and the food was great too!

We recently had such an amazing meal here. Staff are so lovely and welcoming, the food was delicious too! We will definitely be back!

Pop in with my wife and was greeted with a friendly welcome and we sat in restaurant. The food was fantastic and so delicious the staff were amazing and very helpful. Definitely recommend

I highly recommend the woolpack the staff are very friendly and helpful and the food is incredible. It’s a lovely building got a lot of character. Also has a lovely little garden and parking. Will be back soon

Me and my friend had a lovely meal at The Woolpack tonight! Linda looked after us, she was so friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious. We will definitely be back soon 😁

Just had a really nice dinner at the Woolpack. It was a table for 9 and every single one of us had excellent food. The menu is very diverse with something for everyone. I personally had Halloumi fries and a piri piri sauce, quite delicious followed by chicken in a basket, again really tasty. Others had lamb shank, Asian curry and salmon all really nicely cooked. Our waitress was really pleasant, friendly and efficient as we all had different drinks, coffees etc, all delivered correctly and with a smile. Excellent experience and we all said we would like to return soon.

Visited while in the area for a family wedding. Lunch was excellent and stopped off for breakfast in the morning. Excellent food and service 👌

We had an absolutely amazing Valentines meal! Our first ever Valentine’s meal together (back in 2008) was here, so when I saw they were running a competition on their Facebook to win a Valentine’s meal, I had to enter. I was absolutely thrilled, and totally gobsmacked, that I won!! All of the staff we encountered were kind, fun and attentive (and were so lovely around my intolerances, not once was I made to feel like a pain or made to feel awkward!) the food was brilliant, all well cooked and tasted amazing! We will most definitely be back! If you are in the area, I would definitely recommend calling in for a drink or a lovely, hearty meal! Thank you so much for an incredible Valentine’s meal!

Just wanted to leave a review because of the amount of enjoyment of our evening partly came from the staff. Our plates were gone almost immediately after finishing, we were asked about refills intuitively whenever we’d finished, but not in a pressurised manner, it felt like visiting a friend who wanted us to feel at home. Our server was so polite, but funny and despite the business of the place, being valentines, we didn’t feel like their being busy was a problem. We were treated with such respect, the food was excellent and I’ve come home with a full stomach, satisfied palette, and a warm romantic buzz. Thank you for making our night really magical. It genuinely felt like a special treat.

Was a lovely meal we had very quick with the meals there were 19 of us.

Excellent all around, felt very welcomed and warmed by the atmosphere. Beautiful asthetic to the building, open fire, candle lit dinner, secluded sections, and such a romance vibe. Went there for valentines every year. I couldn't wish to go anywhere different as I genuinely feel like a family member, the staff are so friendly and accommodating too. Just all around well done to this establishment. I would recommend to the King himself if I were important enough to know him.

A down to earth pub with good food and good-enough rooms. Very popular with locals and visitors alike, you'll get a warm welcome and good service, a very good pint of ale (or whatever else takes your fancy from a well-stocked bar) and decent food in comfortable surroundings. Honest, straightforward, and traditional values take precednce here.

Had a really lovely meal here with my friends. Great menu and lots of choice at a reasonable price too . Staff are great too will definitely recommend to people. See you again soon

An obnoxious drunk traveller family being rude and noisy the worst was the father who was wearing a ultimate drive's and paving top which the company is registered at a nearby traveller park, as he was making phobic comments aimed at my friend and I getting there children to video us

Lovely food and very friendly team. Enjoyed our evening out and will definitely be returning soon to try rest of the menu!

This was my second visit and I will definitely be returning lovely friendly, polite staff and excellent food and atmosphere

Really lovely food and very polite attentive staff. Relaxing atmosphere, very impressed. Would recommend

Amazing Sunday roast with the family, good food and amazing service thank you!

We always love coming here! We came here for the bingo on Wednesday, we came early so we could eat before it started, I had sausage and mash and my partner had fish and chips we both demolished our food! The service was great and the beer was brilliant, as usual! I’m sure we’ll be back before too long

We came last week and had a lovely meal, we both had a sirloin steak which were cooked perfectly, just how we like! Our daughter loved her tomato pasta and garlic bread. We love coming here and will definitely be back.

Had an absolutely wonderful meal with my boyfriend. The food was top notch and the service even better. Linda served us, she was extremely friendly and attentive. Will definitely be coming back in the future.

Lovely meal provided and decorated our table for our anniversary. Food came out hot and fresh and was lovely. Thank you for having us.

Beautiful food and lovely staff. We have never had a bad experience here
