We spotted the sign for this on the drive through, so after visiting the castle, walked back to find it. So glad we did. We had the platter to share, not a single thing could be faulted. Service was excellent. We loved the look of the cakes but were just so full, so purchased 2 to take home for later that day. Really sad I forgot to leave a tip, too busy chatting to the staff & looking around so much to see, even a gin distillery. We will be back.

It was a busy day in Dunster and many of the pubs fully booked but this was a fantastic find so I’m glad that was the case! Relaxed cafe atmosphere and a warm welcome in this converted chapel. We opted for the sharing platter and noodles with crispy pork - all exquisitely cooked and therefore hugely enjoyable. A cream tea was a must (it was Christmas afterall) - and delighted the scones came warm with a generous helping of clotted cream. Tea served in quaint old fashioned tea cups with a teapot. Also a fabulous selection of gins including output of the on site distillery- and samples were generously offered. A very reasonably priced lunch - just over £50 for 3 main meals, 3 soft drinks, 2 cream teas and a coffee. So both an absolute find and great value for money. We will definitely return.

The Lion Inn in Timberscombe is a quaint "local" pub with a welcome atmosphere and friendly staff and regulars. It is part of the heart of the local community and this is very apparent in the easy way it welcomes locals and visitors. It doesn't have a restaurant service but there are regular food "events" (generally focused on local events and tastes) on certain Tuesday and Thursday evenings (though not firmly regular so I wouldn't count on it 100%). Full disclosure: I recently moved to the area and the Lion Inn and the friendly community around it was one of the draws for us.

A pretty building in a pretty village. And the best rated tearoom apparently. This can only lead one to come to the sad conclusion that one is in an old-fashioned tourist trap. Sandwiches at £11 plus should always be a warning. But when they come out looking like something you could get at the next town along for half the price, your heart will sink and your wallet groan. The savoury cream tea we had didn't fare any better. Instead of a quality cheddar, expect cream cheese. The chutney is likewise lacklustre, sporting a vinegary tone, The scone is just bland. Oh, and stick to the local Costa for your coffee. Unless you favour coffee- flavoured foam.

Ok pub. Not as friendly as the other two pub in Dunster, but ok for a quick pint. The atmosphere and ambience were average.

We made a special stop here to buy some locally-made chocolates, as per the description on Tripadvisor, only to find out that all the chocolates they sell are now imported from Belgium. Disappointed the business owners can't be bothered to keep their listing up-to-date.

Lovely old pub but lunch was a bit of a mixed bag. Sardine starter was a bit dry but the bread was excellent. I enjoyed my meal of well cooked roast belly pork but my partner's Chicken pie was straight out of a supermarket aluminium tin and he was very disappointed.

We popped in on a rainy day and were shown to a choice of tables. Our order was taken and the food (a sandwich, a baguette and cheesy chips) arrived quite quickly. Everything was really tasty, the service was friendly and we really enjoyed our lunch.

Cute pub but blatantly served us very slowly due to not being local. Kept serving locals mid-serving us so took a very long time to just get a couple of drinks.
