Vines Cafe in West Somerset

Lovely little cafe, great coffee and really friendly staff. Perfect stop off.

Delivered for Warren Bay, despite the extremely difficult spot for delivery, excellent food, hot and tasty, friendly service and extremely speedy for the location. Highly recommended 👍 Also the delivery driver is extremely nice!!

Camped at the back, was really nice, not too busy. Showers and toilet facilities were nice and clean. Plenty of hot water in the showers. Nice quiet campsite.

Northfield Hotel , we just loved staying here , old , little tired Victorian building that wraps it's arms around you like a favourite grandma, you walk in and immediately feel relaxed and at home , the staff are absolutely amazing bringing good old fashioned service with a broad smile and a way to make you feel really special, breakfast is wonderful, evening meal is a small set menu with 3 choices in each course, but don't be put off the food is lovely and so nice to have something different, We are definitely going back again, a quirky little gem nestled under the hill in Minehead. Mind if you like ultra modern and expected the world from your stay and the staff to run around you because you are ultra fussy, then don't go, you just won't fit. But if you want grandma to wrap you in comfort then you have a lovely relaxed stay ahead

The Taj Mahal Indian Restaurant, I was there when they built the original! After the success of my first meal at the wonderful Smash Corner, I decided I needed to raise some funds for my next meal. I went to the seafront to flaunt my wares. As many of my long-time readers know, I am the greatest food reviewing wizard the world has ever known, and I do have a few tricks up my sleeve. I realized I had found a use for my fully grown ostrich, Nigel! I pulled the little feller out... of my hat... and put a saddle on his back. It wasn't long before I had my first customer. A little old lady on holiday in Butlins with her family. It was her birthday and she wanted an ostrich ride. I said, "It's £5 for 5 minutes!" She was more than willing to pay up. I helped the frail 80-year-old onto the back of Nigel and told her to hold onto the reins. It started well, then the caca hit the fan! Nigel, a veteran of the great Australian Ostrich war, is an almost fearless ostrich. Almost. He has a deep and profound fear of ice cream cones. Before I knew what had hit me, Nigel caught a glimpse of an ice cream cone and sped up to full speed, barreling 40mph down the beach. Her family chased behind frantically. Last I heard she was spotted in Ilfracombe, heading for Land's End.... On the plus side, she dropped her purse, so I had money for dinner! I walked up into the town, trying to casually distance myself from the carnage at the beach (the air ambulance and police helicopters were in fast pursuit of Nigel) when I came across the Taj Mahal. I walked in with no reservation and the kindly gentleman said he'd find room for me. I was sat at a table on the left-hand side of the narrow restaurant, towards the back and near the kitchens. I ordered a Cobra Beer as my drink. Then I ordered an Indian Mix starter, which was an excellent starter. Wonderful. Fresh. Spicy and tangy. Loved it! For my main, I ordered off-menu a Chicken Passanda, the Rezotti, and Pilau Rice. And folks, let me tell you, this food was spectacular! I ordered off-menu as a Passanda is one of my favourites, and it was prepared expertly and without hesitation. The Rezotti was spicy, the meat was tender, and packed a punch with the herbs and spices. One criticism, the chicken was slightly dry. Nothing too serious. The rice was cooked perfectly and seasoned wonderfully. Taj Mahal Indian Restaurant 4.5/5 (excellent food, wonderful staff. Currently wondering what curried ostrich may taste like)
