The best restaurants in Saltford Bath and North East Somerset South West

Had seen this little place online lots so decided to give it a try. Managed to find a table. Ordered 2 bacon sandwiches & 2 coffees but asked for mine well done. The bacon was cremated unfortunately on both of ours which didn’t bother me but my Dad didn’t enjoy it all all. Coffee was lovely. Service a little on the slow side but there was only 1 lady working and it was reasonably busy so wasn’t a major issue. Will revisit again at some point as it is a lovely little place.

Wow! My wife and I tried the bunless beef burger and chicken burger, along with homemade beer battered onion rings and crispy chicken bites. The food was AMAZING! The sauces were AMAZING. The salad was AMAZING. Thank you so much Gastroburger Team - what an absolute treat! Looking forward to round 2!

Great food, service, and atmosphere.

Very nice food good service not very busy so atmosphere not amazing but no complaints will be back

This is the best fish and chips takeaway in the locality, never had a poor meal. They also offer a range of other takeaway foods but I have not experienced them so far

Well I suppose this is primarily a golf club. But it does offer a restaurant, which seems to be open to non members. A group of (non sporting) friends therefore gathered for lunch Four out of five ordered Steaks, which, when served, were pretty well inedible! Despite requesting steak knives in an attempt to deal with the problem, most went back to the kitchen uneaten. The offer of a free coffee wasn't really an answer to a poorly cooked meal. I notice not many reviews have been received over time, so I guess this culinary delight is mainly restricted to the golf members!

Firstly the food, first class, prices more than reasonable, the premises itself is pleasant and has a great ambience. The staff are absolutely superb, and very attentive and helpful. Highly Recommended 👍👍👍👍👍

Beautiful location, big pub, excellent Caribbean food. Staff could be more friendly and welcoming, smile, and being helpful like offering baby high chair etc. Being more attentive to customers. More Caribbean food choices would be great. Kids food options could do with some veg on plates too. All in all it was okay.

My husband and I first went to Flourish a few years ago and happened upon it for an impromptu breakfast and we thought “what a find”. Fab farmhouse feel, welcoming, warm, great menu with local produce and decent espresso. We raved about it to friends and advocated for the business. I’m afraid to say that a friend and I came today and my experience couldn’t be anymore different in contrast and was shocked to find this had been her recent experience when dining with another friend. It was 9.30 so relatively early, there were a handful of customers. We were shown to a table and frankly abandoned there. 15-20 mins went by without an offer of drinks. I was close to leaving as we were short on time anyway. We had to go up to the counter where I interrupted the barista kneeling down styling his hair in the reflection of the coffee machine. He looked and said “everything ok?”. I asked if it was still table service and he confirmed it was and said I’ll send someone over. Another 5 mins and then he comes. Takes our order but looks really unhappy about doing so. Another 20 mins and our breakfast comes, not complex scrambled egg on toast and veggie breakfast. The eggs were cold and toast served without butter. Odd. Our drinks of orange juice and coffees had still not arrived. They came a few minutes later. I would have complained about the eggs if I was confident it would be rectified quickly but they didn’t return to check on us. At all. 40 minutes after our food was brought to us we were sat with our dirty dishes and without offer another drink or our bill. We would have had another coffee. We approached the counter and asked for our bill there and then without as much as eye contact from the server. Leaving our table dirty behind us and heading to Brislington to find another spot for coffee elsewhere. Really unimpressed in how it has gone down hill. They have of course, like all establishments put their prices up hiding behind the excuse of inflationary rises. However, that is all well and good if the service and food is impeccable for those rises. £3.25 for a thimble of orange juice, a mixed fruit smoothie is £6.25 a glass… lost a sense of reality there with competitive pricing. We were really disappointed and sad to say that we won’t be recommending it anymore. Eating out should feel like an experience and a treat when spending hard earned money. I felt like part of the team with how much I had to interact with the staff; when I should have placed my order, enjoyed my food and the time I had with my friend. Sad to see that the business appears to riding off the previous efforts when they invested in getting people through the door; but now don’t see merit in keeping them there. If feel like I do, they may not ever be back.

We have meant to try here for yonks so it was lovely to finally visit and enjoy such a lovely meal. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The menu had many fabulous sounding offerings, it was hard to chooses. We shall definitely be revisiting very soon! Highly recommended.

Its just wow, what a pub full of characters exactly what pub should look. I have never done a review for any places in my life as I am very easy going person but this place couldn't resist me not to write. I would like to start from the entry of pub, as soon as we arrived car park looked empty but there were enough signs all over the place, we met one of the staff at car park who was tidying up leaves, he then came with us inside with nice smile and great us inside and ask us to register car so we did what he told us to do. Its very easy. long story short, big H behind the bar was beyond hospitable. We had a lovely table by conservatory with nice view of river weir, ordered drinks all fresh and nice very good Guinness and 6x. We then ordered food, my friend ordered pie which was wonderful, my sister's son ordered pizza which was one of the best we have ever had in Bath and Bristol, I ordered lamb Rogan Josh,which is another best Indian curry I have had in years and my sister had a special sea bass which was huge and so tasty which we still talk about it. overall food here in Jolly Sailor is just wow. It surprised me who wouldn't want to eat such a lovely food. Service is next level, I can guarantee, you would never get that kind of professional and next level service anywhere in the pub or restaurant. I got it, pub looks old as it is old pub. my only advise for patrons is, this pub is historical and service and food is mind blowing. If you want to get good food, good service and beautiful ambience and view this is the place. Very good value of money and once again big H keep up with your good work.

We usually love Flourish and have enjoyed the few times we have come in the past. However, today we came and asked for a table for 4. This was kindly met and we were seated. We had a 3 year old with us and she became uncomfortable on the chairs and wouldn't fit comfortably in the high chair. In the past we have enjoyed sitting on the soft benches near the back of the restaurant, which were unavailable when we came in. However slightly in to our visit, before our food had arrived, a bench table became available. I asked if we could move and I was told no, which I understood as the new customers 'had been told' they were sitting there. A few minutes later a new bench table became free and we were clearly making eye contact with the staff and at least 2 members of staff knew we were uncomfortable with our child sitting on our laps. This table was also not offered and could seat 4 people. The guy seating people walked past us multiple times, seeing our child sat on our laps (and knowing we wanted to move) and proceeded to seat 2 people there. It was not booked out and these people had not yet been told they were going to sit there. We were clearly uncomfortable and has asked to switch so would have appreciated being offered the table after asking for one. A little disappointed with this service as it changed our whole visit from enjoyable to uncomfortable. With the price of the food, we expected better service.

In the area unfortunately for a funeral. Traveled down from North Wales. We could not fault the Riverside Inn. Our room was absolutely spot on. The whole place was spotless. Holly and the team were so friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
