The best restaurants in Blagdon and Churchill North Somerset South West

Toasted sandwiches are usual order for lunch.

Had been meaning to visit for years and finally managed to find the opportunity. We weren’t disappointed. Enjoyed the fish and chips (we’d recommend booking an early slot as the food is freshest at the start of service). But the real highlight were the 3 or 4 salads to accompany. All of which made the meal excellent value (£13.50 per head + drinks). Friendly service and great views too. We’ll be returning for sure!

We went here for a surprise Birthday meal we were all made to feel very Welcome. I asked the staff for a recommendation on a Curry as I wanted to try something different. I was recommended to try the Chicken Chat. WOW it was Amazing. All our meals were lovely even my fussy teenager who doesn't eat curry loved his sticky chicken and egg fried rice. We will definitely be back again.

Lovely food lovely pub and lovely staff

Great experience. The team went above and beyond to help us out when we severely undercatered while staying nearby. My partner also forgot his wallet and they kept it for two days before he realised it was gone

Came to the pub for some food and if I say so myself it was one of the most wholesome pub foods I’ve had in a while. The service was great and the location of the pub is beautiful . I’ve definitely recommended this place to my family and friends and recommend it to anyone looking to go out to eat l aswell .

Great Thai food. Have only had takeaway so far but never disappointed.

Absolutely awful food. Waited 1.5 hours for it to be served. This meal was pre-ordered , so you would think that when you book a table, you are not put on a table in the bar that only seated 8 people when our party was 10. The roast dinner, ( microwaved) was very poor quality, Raw carrots items missing from plates. Cabbage so full of vinegar it was inedible. Watery gravy, no sauces offered to accompany the meal . £15 for this, really not acceptable. No house wine, but no offer of reducing the extortionate price of £.8.50. Chose wine as lager served was flat charged £5.50 which was returned and no apology. Lemonade 1/2 pint charged £4.00 . When are concerns were made to the Manager, her manner was very rude and quite upsetting. Needless to say we will never return to this so called Eatery. I also suggest that the Manager may want to attend a hospitality course, as the way we were spoken to was appalling. This is the 2nd time we have given the new managers a chance. There won’t be a third. Very disappointing Mothers Day 🥲

Always come here to meet my friends. The food is good, the service excellent and the atmosphere relaxed. The facilities are always spotless.

We went to have a meal for my son’s birthday. The pub was semi clean and busy! The food arrived very fast after ordering it! And after we started eating it you can see why it was so fast? We all had mixed grills apart from one, but the food was clearly pre cooked and held in a hot plate! Peas were looked like they was cooked in the morning! The chips were very over cooked and dry. The sausage was also dry and hard and also seemed like it was from breakfast time! The chicken! Clearly was cooked and held a long time before serving as it was falling apart and a brown/gray colour. Gammon was chewy, and the pineapple ring felt like it was straight out of the tin and touched the grill and then served. The steak was supposed to be medium? But was well done. The only thing that we could say positive was the 2 little onion rings and the egg Wer cooked to order! Again everything else was CLEARLY PRE COOKED and VERY DISAPPOINTING. Very POOR and SHODDY EFFORT. Sorry to say! But we wished we’d have slummed it and gone to WEATHER SPOONS? VERY POOR SHOW..

This is probably our 4th or 5th stop off at The Crown on the way home. A pub we discovered not long after lockdown after walking in Cheddar . It is an absolute stunner- a hidden gem. Traditional olde worlde with proper stone floors and a roaring fire. Lots of outside space but today after a walk at Goblin Combe we dropped by and that roaring fire was very welcome. We grabbed a couple of ales which were very nice and on a whim ordered a sandwich each. We’ve never eaten there before and these were amazing . My wife has rare roast beef and there must have been about an inch thick of lovely thinly sliced beef. I had ham and cheddar on granary - again absolutely thick with filling and lovely bread. It seems silly fussing over a sandwich but even the side salad was very good. I can’t wait to come back and have a lasagna on another cold day after walking. Staff have always been very friendly -it is obviously a locals pub but has never felt that they treat outsiders any different. Probably the best pub we’ve ever been to?

Booked here for my dad’s birthday, as I had read lots of good reviews online, however our visit was very disappointing. We arrived at 7:30pm for our booking and didn’t get our food until gone 9o’clock. Upon arrival, we were informed that the kitchen was overwhelmed and we would have to wait to order anything. Drinks took a while and when they did arrive, we were then told that one of them couldn’t be made because they didn’t have the correct stock. When our food finally arrived, there was no acknowledgment from the staff that it was late, even though a neighbouring table in the same situation was offered free drinks as compensation. The service was not very attentive and we ended up chasing a few things, which was a shame as it was a lovely setting, but probably wouldn’t return.

Stopped here for the first time and so glad we did. The welcome was warm and friendly. The carvery was amazing hot tasty and great value for money. Lot's of choice from the carvery and vegetables were also cooked very well. I would recommend booking as it was almost full when we got there at 3pm and was still very busy when we left st 5pm .

Visited here to celebrate Valentines night. Not really the pubs fault but absolutely empty with no atmosphere. The TV playing in the background! Not our ideal atmosphere. Food was basic, the fish and chips were mainly batter and cheap frozen type chips. The pea order was even wrong. The gammon was salty. No one came over to ask how our meal was. The waitress did ask as she cleared the table as so much food was left on our plates. Unfortunately my drink was cleared away before I’d actually finished it. We won’t be returning. Sad as this is our local and we’d love a pub that serves great food and drinks with some atmosphere.

An amazing view from the garden, perfect for a pint and a sandwich on a sunny day. I had the brie and chutney sandwich, delicious.
