The best restaurants in The Pennards and Ditcheat Mendip South West

We had family visiting and had a table for six on the covered patio which is now lit and heated. There was a lovely atmosphere and the staff were very friendly. Short blackboard menu but with good varied choice. We all had something different and everyone one proclaimed that their dish was delicious. Would highly recommend.

We stopped here for breakfast. The choices were well varied and the food reasonably good if slightly on the expensive side. Also some delightful cakes and cookies. Service friendly and quick.

I'm still owed money for meals I paid for when I attended the music Festival in early Sept 24. It is disgraceful. No reason given and the same email response from the pub as a lot of others are getting. when trying to get a refund, 'It's been forwarded to accounts'. What an appalling way to treat customers.

We stayed for one night after Xmas shopping at the Clark’s village in Street. This lovely Inn with rooms is only 5 miles away. The welcome and check in from the lady at the desk were fantastic. She was naturally polite and helpful, not put on at all. Our room was very clean and spacious with everything we needed and lots of hot water for a relaxing bath. Homemade cookies were a nice touch too. We ate in the pub and can also say that this was a lovely experience with great food and a roaring fire. All staff were very friendly and provided fantastic service. Breakfast the next morning was also great with locally sourced ingredients. We will return, Thank you.

I’ve read all the rather mixed reviews- all I can say is that I find the service and welcome warm and friendly and the full English Breakfast ( available in various sizes) very well done indeed. The coffee was great , I love the quiet atmosphere and the farm shop is always interesting.

The food was well presented and very tasty, however, there was only one vegetarian choice on the menu which was a veggie burger. The website menu showed more than this so it was disappointing to find that this was all I could have. Some meals were served on a wooden platter which was fine for me but some of our party requested plates as they didn’t like this idea. There was plenty of choice for meat/fish eaters and gluten free options also available. Just wish there had been an alternative to the burger.
