The best restaurants in West Polden Sedgemoor South West

We have visited The Duck on various occasions. This time a visiting friend asked to go again, which we were more than happy to oblige. Again the atmosphere, food and drink were excellent. The staff are always very happy and helpful, this time a special mention to Poppy as it was her birthday 🎈. Also a shout out to the chef, Ben, thank you for making a fantastic gluten free pasta dish 😋 thank you everyone again. Will be back again soon😊

Had a fantastic meal here last night, food was amazing and huge portions. Really friendly staff and locals. Gorgeous roaring fire and dog friendly. What more could you want!

Avoid at all costs. Been here a few times before & was excellent. Obviously has new tennants who havent got a clue how to run a pub. Friday night was fish night and yet they only had white fish, which was grey and mushy & had a thick soggy batter.Was told it was cod, probably minnow given the size of the fish in the batter.Chips were soggy and were rubbery. This pub was dark,cold and empty on a friday night ,this should have rung alarm bells. Needless to say declined to pay the bill.,

Amazing little pub, tucked away off of the beaten track. Quirky (in a great way) interior with a warm, relaxed atmosphere, background music that’s actually background. Had a great meal, good beer, reasonable prices. Burgers are spectacular, flavoursome and huge, piping hot and excellent service. These are not just economy flat bits of meat, they are well seasoned actual beef and huge, juicy and delicious. The ‘dirty’ fries aren’t just dirty - they’re filthy, spiced, cheesy and pulled pork, they are incredible. Great range of lagers, ciders and beers, warm, comfortable seating, friendly, welcoming bar team -oh and a parrot :) If you want generic pub with generic food, not for you. If you want something that looks different, has good beer, good food and great staff, go for it - you won’t regret it. Oh and dog friendly too for well behaved doggos on a lead.

Stopped for breakfast bap and drinkWe had one crispy bacon bap with ketchup I asked that the bacon be crispy, as last time not so much. This time plenty of bacon but alas, still not crispy. Makes for a chewy bap. Had a sausage and caramelised onion cheesy bap. The sausages were delicious, bap was well toasted cheesy taste not so nice, as faux cheesy bit not pleasant to my taste. Coffee v pleasant Did not have to wait an age so that is a plus. Thank you
