Vobster Inn in Mendip

Enjoyed a fabulous tapas dinner with three friends last night at the Vobster Inn prepared by a genuine Spanish chef. We shared ten different dishes from pheasant croquettes to Manchego and quince jelly. Why would you choose burger and chips when you can have a meal that you would never attempt at home.

Very friendly service and dogs welcome.

The room was very spacious and tidy. Morning breakfast was brilliantand the staff was very friendly. There was a huge parking space just outside the inn. All together, it was a very good experience. Will book again.

Fantastic place, great hosts. Will come back 100%

Peaceful inn with a very lovely ambience.

Easy check in, lovely room, host was really nice and brekkie was yummy.

Lovely stay in a great location and the owners were very welcoming.

Quiet friendly pub with an enticing menu

Amazing location, nice rooms, lots of parking, free wifi, warm and clean. Friendly breakfast service, would recommend.

A lovely place with a welcoming host. Been back several times.

I had a fantastic experience at the Vobster Inn. The English breakfast was absolutely delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The rooms were beautifully appointed, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend this charming inn for a delightful getaway!

We had a wonderful stay in the bunkhouse. Host Peta was friendly & welcoming. Accommodation was warm, comfortable & had everything we needed with the added extra of a hot tub. Great little find & enjoyed our stay. Perfect location for a visit to Longleat Safari Park.

Lovely place, we keep coming back !!

Stunning location but soon as you get into the room it was all different it was nothing advertised on TripAdvisor rooms were not soundproofed, the beds were uncomfortable, there was no food being served because of illness, the room was dirty, it was like a cardboard box, I won't be coming back here and I don't recommend it.

I’ve stayed at the Vobster Inn quite a few times. I visit my son & his family who live nearby often, however I can’t always get a room, so early booking is recommended. They have glamping on site, but I like the comfort of a hotel room. The rooms are all beautifully decorated (I’ve stayed in 3 out of the 4 of them), the beds are very comfortable & the modern en suite bathrooms delightful. The heating is easy to control & the large screen TV’s a great bonus. Now to the management. Peta (pronounced Peter) is a fabulous hostess. Friendly, communicative with a nothing to much for you attitude that makes you feel so welcome. I like certain fruits for my breakfast in the beautiful main pub building. It’s provided & very fresh. The huge car park is extremely close to everything. The entire setting of this stunning establishment is so perfect I can’t wait to stay there again.

How refreshing to have a host with great customer service skills- we had a fabulous meal in a great setting

Friendly, warm welcome stayed for one night mid week, clean & comfortable room. Nothing was too much trouble

Arrived at 18.40 . Looked dead from the outside . When we walked in there was no one around , neither staff or customers. Part of the pub was in complete darkness . Stayed for 10 minutes then walked out as nobody came out .

We ate here on a Saturday evening as a family of five. The pub itself has a lovely, friendly atmosphere and the staff are wonderfully accommodating but not too fussy. The menu is small but the food is delicious and clearly cooked to order. There were 3 good vegetarian options (my baked eggs were fantastic) and the children’s menu was more than adequate. Our meal of two main courses, one sharing platter, two children’s meals, two large glasses of wine, one pint of ale and three soft drinks came to a very reasonable £62.50. We will definitely be back if we’re back in the area.

Had a meal here with a few friends, menu is small but if you call they will cater for most dining issues, the food we had was cooked well but i dont think you would want just a main if you like to eat loads. we had pudding which i was not overly happy with, Eaton mess was just 2 spoons of cream, a small amount of broken meringue and about 2 strawberries. Not the cheapest place to eat although the food looked good on the plate. Dont think we would go again.

The Vobster Inn was a real find. We were limited to dinner there, as the yurts and shepherd’s hut were booked out. The welcome was Peta was warm and genuine and we immediately felt at home. Local beer slipped down too easily and the food was delicious. The kids menu was more than adequate - empty plates attested to that - and we adults enjoyed a tapas-style starter with delicious breads (we chose anchovies, chorizo and goats cheese), followed by lamb and duck. The kids polished off clotted cream icecream and sticky toffee pudding. We will certainly come back, and will make sure we book a yurt next time.

We were staying overnight so we had a drink in the bar and then had dinner in the inn.The food was lovely,we had the burger with chips and onion rings and then dessert too.Service was great and we were given a lantern as the walk up to our hut was very dark.will definitely be back again

Wonderful. The place was made very beautiful by Pitre and her husband. Made us feel VERY welcome. The hut was very tastefully furnished. We will go back to this charming place with chickens running around .

We ate here every evening it was available during our stay. The food was well cooked and presented. Although the menu is small something changed every day and it was always delicious.

A last minute booking but so very worth it. The rooms are homely and comfortable, the inn rustic and charming and the food extremely tasty!

Have already written a review on this beautiful place and fantastic hosts, where we stayed for two nights earlier this week.

I can never work out how old this pub is, but the food is really very good. There are always daily changes which seem to reflect the local availability of ingredients. It’s well thought out, prepared and presented. Opening hours for food can be a little restricted, so call first to check.

Great night had by all after meeting up with friends I have not seen for about 7yrs, lovely host warm and friendly nice cold real ales, enjoyed we will be back

Really enjoyed our short stay here, nothing too much trouble for the friendly staff, lovely room, and we were very well fed in the restaurant, nice quiet location, would go back, and would recommend to others.

We decided to visit this place for a birthday meal. The food was all homemade, tasty but very small portions. The chicken with a veal gravy was £14. Very expensive considering it didn't come with anything. An average meal, but excellent customer service and setting.

He estado viniendo aquí durante años, Raf y Peta son tan acogedores y amables cada vez, Peta lleva nuestra botella habitual de vino a la llegada y se explica qué platos están en el menú sólo por tiempo limitado, así que siempre he tenido una gran variedad de comida. El pescado es brillante y fresco sin falta y el servicio es rápido y eficiente. La cordillera de los precios significa que es posible tener una comida estupenda menos de £12 o empujar el bote y tienen una opción para un poco más lujosos más.

Me esperaba para disfrutar de una visita a este pub no haber estado allí por mucho tiempo. Por desgracia, sin embargo, fue bastante decepcionante. La zona del bar/restaurante le falta ambiente, tanto en términos de decoración y ambiente. La comida era muy promedio, aunque el servicio era bueno y la camarera simpática.

Vine aquí con mis hijos y mi abuela para el almuerzo!

Beautifully cooked, beautifully presented, beautifully service. Perfect. I can't fault anything at all. If you get a chance they the lamb.

Nos paramos para un almuerzo tarde en domingo y haber tenido un gran desayuno, no estábamos tan hambrientos, pero necesitaba comer algo. El director era muy servicial, aunque llegamos tarde para pedidos de comida, ella nos dio una mesa. Para repetir la comida era perfecto para nosotros, pero yo diría que si nos estábamos muriendo, listo para un gran almuerzo, me habría vuelto a por más!

El frente de la casa aquí es siempre alegre y acogedor. Es un restaurante familiar con una gran chef español que preparamos deliciosos platos auténticos junto a un menú en inglés.

We liked the dinners and breakfasts on out two night stay. The room was comfy and spacious for 5 of us and the beds gave us a wonderful sleep. The staff were helpful, especially the landlady, Peta, who gave us directions to the places we visited to avoid too many winding country roads. Great location for visiting the surrounding area and only 20 minutes from Longleaf and about 30 minutes from Bath. Next year we are hoping to come back and try out the Glamping that they are going to introduce.

I visited this venue with a largish party of people. We all had prebooked our meals, several days in advance. The tables were nicely laid out and the setting of the pub is very good. The food was somewhat varied. My baked camembert was very good , but it could have been hotter. It was just about acceptable, otherwise I would have sent it back to be reheated. The scampi next to me was absolutely awful. It was overcooked and not much fish inside. No excuse for this... It has to be one of the easiest meals to do! The ham egg and chips were good, but not enough chips on our table. Extra chips were brought out to a neighbouring table, but the people on our table got none. The tables were large and if I had not started to eat at once my meal would have been stone cold by the time the last person was served. Not very polite I know, but it was necessary Im afraidThere did not seem to be enough staff, again I felt there was no excuse, as we had all preordered.This venue is not cheap, and it did not live up to the prices charged.

We had exclusive use of the Vobster Inn for a family party of 45. The service we received and the quality of the food were both excellent and we were delighted with both. The lamb was cooked to perfection.

Went to the Vobster Inn with friends, had a lovely 3 course evening meal. Excellent food and really great service. We found a good selection on the menu, some of the usuals along side a few surprises. Not the cheapest but good value for the quality. We will be visiting again.

Called in on the off chance early Friday evening. Not very busy. My wife had Ham, egg, chips, which was very nice. I had the mixed grill at £18.00 which was disappointing.Just my opinion but a mixed grill should consist of more than five items and a few chips. Staff friendly

After getting settled in our room, our order was taken at the bar. We relaxed on the couches with our drinks while we waited for our order to be ready as a big order had recently been placed in the kitchen.Our server showed us to our table once we were ready to be seated, and our meal came out shortly afterwards. I ordered the lamb after seeing so many sheep everywhere, and to remind me of home. It was cooked perfectly pink, served on a bit of bubble & squeek, with a rich gravy. My fiancé had the chicken which she said was the best chicken she has ever had.We were too stuffed for pudding, but I was very tempted by the sticky toffee pudding.I loved the feel of the pub, from the paved floor to the stuffed fox on the bar, and the leather couches with hilarious books near the entrance. Great food, great beer, great service.

Went for lunch on a Saturday for a birthday treat. We've eaten here a number of times and never been disappointed. Staff are always helpful and pleasant. Vegetarians are catered for but the choice is limited, having said that the vegetarian options such as they are, are always excellent. The menu usually has a good selection of seafood, and the rest of the menu is always good.

If passing through Vobster, pop in to this lovely pub. The food & service was excellent. If the weather is good, get a game of French boules.

Visited for an overnight stay for the third time - this time with friends. We all had an excellent meal and enjoyed a variety of beautifully presented, very tasty and sensibly priced starters, mains and desserts. The smoked salmon with pickled vegetables was particularly good. As ever nothing was too much trouble for Peta and her team. We will definitely be back.

My wife and I have eaten here many times and The Vobster never fails to please. The food is excellent and varied and the service cheerful and engaged. The wines are pretty good and economically priced. Recently we had a cheerful and cheering sparkling Spanish rosé. As for the food, the raviolilioni (ravioli stuffed with ricotta and lemon) was utterly mouthwatering and delicious. The chef is Spanish and there is often a spanish flavour or origin to some of the dishes. The Vobtsre is run by a husband and wife team - husband rules in the kitchen and his wife rules from the bar - both of them lovely people.

Went to have a late romantic Valentine's meal and came away very disappointed. The waitress was very pleasant but did not know anything about the menu, her strap line was (I'm not 100% sure).Ordered potted shrimp and squid for starters, the shrimp had been chilled and therefore was really hard and difficult to spread. Surely this should be served at room temp? The squid was really chewy.Mains were good, really good steak in fact.Ordered a sticky toffee pudding which came with chocolate ice cream?! ( What's that all about?) The waitress had forgotten to tell us they were out of vanilla ice cream. No choice given re having cream.No concession made on the bill despite the fact that we expressed our dissatisfaction.Proprietor said she would have vanilla ice cream next time - well there won't be one for us, sorry!

The Vobster is a little hidden away but well worth seeking out. Plenty of parking when you get there!Abs superb cooking by the chef......and specially well worth visiting for lunch when they usually have a really good 'offer' on!!!There is an excellent variety of food, nicely presented but not 'fussy'. If you like cheap, overflowing plates of standard pub food go elsewhere.

We are spoilt for choice in the area surrounding Frome but the Vobster is great.Not normally a Butcome fan but the beer served straight from the barrel is excellent.The mid week lunch at £10 for two courses is limited but includes a glass of pretty good merlot. The portions are not huge but are weel cooked and presented.Eating there at other times, the quality is good and we always find something interesting.I've never stayed there but others tell me the rooms are good value.The place is spotless and the landlady has a great sense of humour. Her husband, the chef rarely strays from the kitchen.Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Booked Sunday lunch on a recommendation as we were staying in the area for a few days. Rang in advance to confirm availability of a vegetarian option for lunch and they were happy to offer a roast or one of the a la carte options which they discussed with me. When we arrived the staff were fully aware of the vegetarian requirement and very helpful. The rest of us ordered from both the a la carte and the Sunday roast sections of the menu. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. There was a varied selection of vegetables served with the meals including a generous dish of cauliflower cheese which was a treat!Real care and attention had gone into the small but varied menu. Staff were friendly and the restaurant itself was thoughtfully decorated and immaculate. Portion sizes aren't huge which is not a bad thing, quality rather than quantity takes a precedent here.Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would love to come again if we find ourselves back in the area.

We hadn't been for a while. Not deliberately, I guess summer shennanigans just got in the way. Tonight, however, was our first Saturday night with no plans. The temperature has dropped and we fancied a charming pub, a relaxed environment, some hearty warming food and a decent bottle of red. Landlady and staff were friendly and courteous as normal. Fabulously, there was a delicious Spanish stew on the menu, cooked by the Catalan landlord, which was everything we had been looking for and some. The Vobster just always delivers. A lovely old pub, great food and there's just something charmingly humble about the whole set up. It's off the beaten track which, in this day and age, shoudn't stop it being awash with snobby foodie types but it isn't. Perhaps too humble for its own good but selfishly, I'm glad about that because it means a quick phone call usually secures you a table and you're guaranteed to leave with a warm feeling inside.

Had the set price lunch which was very good value for money. Scampi and chips, chocolate brownie and a glass of apple juice all for £10! The food was very good and the service was excellent. Would definitely recommend.

Lunch here after ringing on our fiftieth wedding anniversary. Staff friendly and efficient. Food good and well presented without being pretentious; Pleasant setting and you can play boules if you need diversion. Good range of beers, ciders and wines. A bit difficult to find if you don't have satnav or a local guide but well worth discovering. Will surely be back.

Really enjoyed our stay at the vobster inn, very welcoming staff , excellent evening meal & breakfast in a beautiful setting

Great location, family run, food is amazing - we went there for lunch and the set price lunch was great value. We then played boules in the very attractive garden at the front of the pub - went for a walk, and then came back and had coffee. So close to Bath and Babington House and yet no one seems to know it.

Nice location in pretty village setting. The layout of the restaurant was spacious and as we dined early it was quiet. Staff numbers low meaning a little wait for service, menu was somewhat limited in choice. Starter was disappointing for me as all I could taste was Olive Oil. Steak was small and chewy. My partner had roll mops which was nice and wild mushroom risotto which was okay. Decided to skip dessert and don't think we will try again, although we heard others say they enjoyed it.

Das Restaurant ist sehr urig und das Essen von sehr guter Qualität! Der Service ist aufmerksam und das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis gut!

fantastic find whilst on holiday!!! great little pub with good food and service :) Lovely outside space to sit of play boules!! great!

Family of 4 adults visited on good Friday and not disappointed. Food is fresh, delicious and modern, and the service is excellent. Between us we had hake, duck, lamb and beef then yummy puddings and cheese. Only slight niggle is that the young waitress didn't know the cheeses though my partner (who knows about such things) assured me the quality was high. With drinks and some coffee the price of £123 was excellent value and we will definitely return and recommend to anyone.

Second time visit to stay overnight but this time we arrived in time for dinner. The ribeye steak was one of the best I've eaten - the chef know how to do a proper rare one.Overall this is a great country pub with really nice staff for whom nothing's too much trouble. The rooms are very clean and comfortable with, in number 4 at least, a decent ensuite bath. Will definitely use the pub again next time I need to stay in this area.

Big welcome despite arriving outside check in times. Fresh milk and home baked cookies in the rooms. Very friendly hostess PETA, for whom nothing was too much trouble. This is our second visit and we look forward to the next time

A small innovative menu using quality produce perfectly cooked and well presented, clearly a chef patron.Our most memorable meal was Rare breed Porchetta, farmed by the Ashbridge family on the North York Moors. A traditional Italian dish that originates from the Umbrian region of Italy. Porchetta consists of a whole sucking pig which is boned and stuffed with Italian herbs.

just popped down after a days diving at nearby local dive center and had an amazing stake lunch from this charming vilage pub, great service from the helpfull and friendly staff. great food just what i needed.

This is a lovely pub in a great location with nice staff. We went for a roast one sunday and had a really nice meal. My only reason for not going back would be that you can get more food at the same quality at other places in the area

Seating basic , service good , menu very limited , plenty of space , generally pleasant , good food worth a visit but pick a comfortable table not a wooden bench . Cushions would help here .landlady very pleasant . But service and food good .

Great food in a pretty pub in beautiful Somerset. Quite a lot of Spanish influence on the menu and some really interesting dishes. Bavette steak main was tender and tasty, charred and garlicky with butter. Home made ice cream to finish made me a happy girl! Very quiet but perhaps that was just a one off as we've been before and it's been very busy, especially the lovely beer garden in the sun. Service spot on. Thanks

A very charming pub out in the country. Serves good food and good ale. It must be good??? even the locals use it.....A real treat is awaiting the traveller of this area. A very varied menu is offered. Good sized portions of excellent freshly cooked food locally grown, served by very polite, competent waitresses. As 'Arnie' says.... 'I'll be back'

This evening my family and I drove out to the Vobster Inn and, based on the reviews here, were looking forward to a lovely evening. We arrived early (18.30) and, apart from a group of eight who'd arrived just before us, we were the only ones there. We settled ourselves in the garden and I went in to get some menus. I asked whether, when we were ready to order, we needed to do so at the bar. The peremptory reply I received was: 'You'll have to wait half an hour.' A little surprised, I asked whether this was to order. 'No', came the grumpy reply. 'All these people are ahead of you and we're expecting lots of guests. So you'll have to wait at least half an hour for food.' Now, having worked as a waitress for many years, I understand that restaurants get busy but this one was practically empty. Even without having worked as a waitress, any decent person knows this is not how you speak to potential customers. We were made to feel unwelcome and unwanted. so we took our business elsewhere and won't be back.

Warm and welcoming . It does not matter what day of the week you call in. You may be there for Sunday roast, it may be you have called to experience one of the Friday theme nights or may be your just there to sample the varied and inventive menu either way you will be please with the result.

Went with a group of friends and were ready for our food after an enjoyable game of boules. Many different food choices were made and everyone agreed that the food was excellent. Hosts are keen to please and we felt very welcome and well looked after.

I have eaten here a few times and never been disappointed. The Sunday roasts are the best around; beautifully cooked meat with an excellent selection of side dishes. The menu is quite varied, with plenty of favourites as well as some more unusual options (the blue cheese and walnut ice cream sounded bizarre but was very tasty). The service is always friendly and attentive, and there is a lovely welcoming atmosphere. Plenty of parking available and al fresco dining in the summer. Fabulous!

Chef owner and wife make this a well run, welcoming Inn. The real draw for us is the inventive delicious food - miss it and you'll be missing out!

A very warm welcome, friendly owners and staff and a nice pub. Food was good. Thoroughly enjoyable evening though!

The Vobster has an interesting array of better-than-average food, a lovely landlady and a sense of humour (though some of the jokes have disappeared from the Gents during so0me recent redecoration!).

A great night out, friendly service in a lovely old pub. The food was excellent, presented well and not too long to wait (not bad for a Saturday night). All in all good value, would go there again.

The menu is always changing and seasonal and the food is delicious every time. I have recommended it to everyone I know. A bonus for us is the really wide choice of dishes which are gluten free - hard to find for coeliacs! The staff have been lovely every time. We intend to make it a regular trip.

We visited the Vobster Inn on a wet Saturday lunchtime. The choice of real ale was slightly disappointing and the place was very quiet in fact almost deserted so choosing a table was no problem. We were served by a very polite friendly barman. The menu was fish orientated but with enough options for non fish lovers. Our food, a rustic meaty stew from a region of Northern Spain, came quite quickly and hit the spot on a cold miserable day. It was accompanied by a generous portion of delicious bread. This an excellent venue for anyone interested in good food and I am sure we will return very soon.

It's a Sunday. Completed a long walk in the morning. Starts to rain. Suddenly see a sign for The Vobster Inn. Feared we'd be turned away as hadn't booked. Couldn't have had a friendlier welcome (and it was busy!) We had venison burgers - delicious - and shared a sticky toffee pudding. We will certainly be returning - extremely good value and well cooked, attractively presented food.

At birthday party of 10 adults plus a 2 year old on a Saturday lunchtime we were warmly welcomed by Peta and had a wonderful lunch, all mains and puddings were highly praised and our service before, during and after the lunch by the friendly staff and Peta herself was excellent.We cannot recommended highly enough.Lunchtime visit as a family.

The food at the Vobster Inn is very good indeed . It has an interesting Spanish flair (from the owners husband) and the whole place is run very professionally . It competes well with the Talbot Inn up the road and worth a visit . The desserts are excellent , especially the dessert selection (yummy).

I arrived here with an Italian friend of mine hoping for lunch. I was bitterly disappointed to learn that the kitchens had closed 5 minutes beforehand... at that point I wished I was back in a country where rules weren't so tightly followed. But what then happened was extraordinary. When I asked if the barman knew anywhere that might be open locally (I was thinking of the Talbot in mells) he went so far as to call the place to check and made us a booking. We stayed and had a drink as a thank you! I would still have preferred to eat at the Vobster, I think the food is second to none, but was mightily impressed by the service. Hopefully I can make it back from lunch one day soon!

Stayed here for one night, the place itself is in a beautiful setting, boules out the front and the owners are really lovely. The evening food was good but the breakfast was amazing. My husband had the manx kippers and they were incredible. My only complaint would be that the rooms are a bit tired and the bathrooms need some money spent on them. My shower was either hot or cold, but its definately worth a visit as it has a really nice atmosphere.

Excellent food, friendly polite staff, fabulous hosts you couldn't wish to find a better place. Food is extremely good (ate two nights running) customer service is outstanding and well worth a visit. Can personally recommend the whitebait tapas, pork cutlet, Vobster mixed grill and my son recommends the Vobster burger and gammon.y

Great "English Pub with a Spanish twist" experience for our family of 4, visiting from Australia. Friendly service, cosy atmosphere, yummy food. A true gem :)

Spent a week in Somerset staying in Upper Vobster and chanced across this little Inn, initially for lunch. Fairly small menu but the food was beautiful - well cooked and presented and full of flavour. Our kids enjoyed the kids menu also. We decided to return for dinner on our last night (tonight) and again had a great meal. Staff were very warm and friendly and both the food and the service were great. Thoroughly recommended.

Went with friends, my meal was lovely the steak cooked perfectly. However, one of my friends had an issue with hers and the lady was brilliant. She swept away the offending dish immediately and offered a free replacement of anything else. The service was excellent and any problems were dealt without fuss nor argument, would definitely return.

I have just been for a meal at the Vobster inn with my partner, I must say that the food and service is beyond any expectations, I went for the trio of lamb which was perfectly cooked and very tasty, I also added some of the tapas options to my meal which is lovely to have something to nibble and taste some authentic Spanish cuisine, there was plenty on the menu to choose from was thoroughly impressed and will be returning in the very near future. Also Peta and Raf are doing a fantastic job, a fantastic beer garden with brilliant views for when the sun decides to appear

went here with a lovely friend who had been there before.it was a beautiful country pub with low beams and all the charm of a village pub/restaurant...until you have some food, the menu varies from time to time, but you will not be disappointed.parmesan and spinach croquettes just melt in the mouth.. the foie gras terrine my friend had was superb...the duck breast with red cabbage and mash was succulent and crispy topped, divine!!!to finish the peach melba cheesecake..oh was pure heaven!! we shall return with husbands as it is my new favourite restaurant!!

My husband and I (sound like the Queen!) dine here regularly and are never let down. The food is always excellent as is the service. Pete and Rafael do a great job. P.S. No guns were put to heads to write this review, just feel they need some well earned recognition!

Food was ok, the meat eaters amongst us were fairly satisfied. There were no vegan choices and little flexibility around the menu - this may just have been the waitress though to be fair. Prices were fairly high

A good pub, has changed hands a few times now and no one has really got it to work perfectly. The food was of good quality, atmosphere lack a good roaring fire, the restaurant is very sterile environment. Reasonable price

i stayed in the vobster inn for one night the bar staff and landlady were excellent always smiling and happy to help,the food was excellent compliments to the chef, and the room was clean, modern and comfy with a nice hot shower. dont drive past its a must stay thank you vobster inn

amazing food, friendly staff.we picked this pub by chance and are so glad we found it, its a little gemgood for a treat

Have been here for Lunch a few times. Food has always been of a high standard. We had the offer of 2 courses for £10 with glass of house wine. Just right for lunch time. Will definately go again soon. Lovely place to sit out side in good weather.

We eat here regularly. It's a charming old pub/restaurant in a lovely small rural village. The couple who run it are absolutely lovely. She works front-of-house and takes the time to make everybody feel welcome in an unobtrusive way. Her Spanish husband is the Head Chef and and delivers exceptionally high quality pub food at very reasonable prices. For something different, try one of the Spanish dishes on the menu - they are exceptional! They also have paella nights. It's a decent size venue but it's worth calling to book first. I get the impression that they deliberately don't over-commit on covers in order to retain quality and it shows. Thank you Vobster Inn, we love you!

We have been a number of times to the vobster and never disappointed; they to great tapas, and some fantastic, often spanish-influenced specials. We went for a Sunday lunch last week, and it was so good we felt we needed to review it! Sunday lunches are hard to get right, but this was perfect, fantastic meat, beautifully cooked, with a great yorkshire pud and tasty veggies. There is some stiff competiotion round here on Sunday lunches, but think the Vobster edges it.

I hadn't visited The Vobster Inn for quite a few years, even though it had always been extremely good each time I did visit, so decided it was time to return.We visited on a Friday night to celebrate an anniversary. The food is still extremely high quality, very well presented and very reasonably priced. The service was faultless and extremely friendly and attentive.We enjoyed our meal so much we decided to go back the following Sunday for Sunday Lunch. The waiter informed us, while we were being seated, that the Roast options were Beef and Lamb and that the beef will be served "pink!".....'perfect' we thought :) and we were not disappointed. One of the best Sunday Roasts we had had in a while :)Oh....and make sure you try the Trio of Chocolate Treats for dessert!

I have heard a lot about this place from my wife who has been there a few times and I have been waiting to go there.This weekend I did get my chance to stay there and also to have dinner and breakfast too.I love it!-great beer,fantastic food and a very nice friendly atmosphere.The rooms are great and well priced and above all they are very clean.I look forward to my next visitThankyou to the owners and staff.

We had a great room here en route to Cornwall - newly refurbished and very comfortable. Peta does everything to make you welcome and works hard in the restaurant and bar. It was a Wednesday night and very busy - Dutch tourists on spec as they enjoyed it the night before, a local party on celebration, and other couples like us. There was a great atmosphere and Rafael her husband produces lovely tapas - a mixed fish plate of mussels, anchovies, calamari, sardines on toast was lovely, and the catalan tomato bread perfect. We had the crab linguine from the specials board - excellent.This is a lovely place to stay - breakfast is generous too - and it's a superb place to eat.

Situated in the peaceful village of Vobster in North Somerset. Family run Inn with relaxed, calm, friendly atmosphere. Excellent, imaginative food. This is a super place, can well recommend it.
