The best restaurants serving British food in South West

Place has gone downhill lately. Did the Friday quiz but it was uncomfortably cold in the room for everyone. Service and staff good but price increases (due to their financial difficulties) have been put up beyond many of other town pubs.

This is a gem of a find in Cheddar … sitting down to eat in a clean, modern and warm environment after visiting the caves was wonderful. Added to the magic of our day. Great veggie options which was novel for a fish n chip place- thank you :) Great service, lush food and reasonably priced - we loved it :)

Have visited 4 times in the last month with friends after swimming Please please sort the “basics” out Staff very slow and it’s a strain for them to smile Don’t mind queuing if busy but please just smile and speed up a bit

Absolutely disgusting service. Waited 45mins past our booking time in a little library room and were completely forgotten about. Asked a waitress twice before asking for the manager and she was no help at all. Just rolled her eyes and said "obviously we're busy and will get you in when we can" as though we'd casually walked in. Took 2 members of staff to open our wine and didn't receive it until halfway through the main course. By the time our dessert order was taken we were the only table left in the restaurant and still had to ask for cutlery to be brought to us. When my wife tried to suggest service had been poor we were told "well we've had 'celebrity' chefs in tonight and they all left happy". So thanks. Good to know you only offer good service if you recognise a name. We WON'T be returning!!!!!

We popped in for a coffee and cake whilst on Saturday visit to Wells. Varied menu and a good selection of cakes, scones and pastries. Cooked breakfast coming out of the kitchen looked delicious and good portions. Coffee nice (not bitter) and hot. Facilities clean and staff very friendly. Will remember this cafe when we next visit Wells.

Whilst the setting is lovely and the staff were very good the same cannot be said of the food, which was very disappointing and very over priced. My friend had checked that they could cater for a vegetarian, which was confirmed but there was absolutely no options other than a dreadful 'roast' vegetable salad, which had virtually no roast vegetables, a few roast auberges and peppers but otherwise it all came out of a jar, mozzarella cheese and rocket. I ordered place, which I am sure had been frozen as it was tasteless, soggy spinach, good tender stem broccoli. My poor friend put up with the 'roast' veg salad. We both had French fries which were of poor quality and not very nice. Puddings were good. Such a pity, so much scope to have provided a better meal. This is not a cheap restaurant and I could not recommend it unfortunately.

I have always wanted to stay here, so went recently for a few days. The bedroom was small but adequate, everything you needed. A lovely comfortable bed, ample storage, tea and coffee tray, a fan (which l used as found it quite warm) plus a heater. The bathroom spacious and a nice size shower, only thing missing was a shower cap. Pleased to see a slip mat included. I had been quoted a figure for dinner, but on arrival no one seem to equate with it, so l consulted the reception next day to see what l was actually paying and Meg the receptionist checked out my account and put me on a leisure break price, which was excellent. I really enjoyed all my food l am a big 'foodie'. BF was equally as good in the morning, surprised to see kedgeree on the menu. Staff all very friendly and helpful. A lovely stay'

It's been a few years and this lovely Harbour side restaurant is now a Members' Club. However, if you have business in the Marina - Elliot Brown in my case - you can get a guest ticket. I think at other times if they are not too busy you could possibly eat here. Anyway, great situation. Good service and an extensive Menue. On this occasion I opted for the Ploughmans, delicious and all the ingredients were really fresh, but on WHITE Bread? The Americano with cold milk was superb. Sometimes an excuse for an average Coffee. Not here. Great Ice Cream for Dessert and another Coffee - Macciato this time. Hayling Seagoon

Precioso restaurante, buena comida y gran personal... caña de cordero cocinado perfectamente... Muy buena relación calidad-precio teniendo en cuenta la alta calidad de la comida.

Cracking fish and chips. Always freshly cooked, always great quality and always piping hot. The portions are huge too. Can’t ask for more from a takeaway.

Mi marido y yo encontramos este encantador bistró mirando hacia los jardines en Bournemouth cenamos y unas copas. El personal joven era muy amable y todos ellos muy buenos en lo que hacen se lo pasaron muy bien y sin duda recomendaría a cualquiera que visite Bournemouth para probar este fabuloso bistró

My hubby and I were guests at A Family Reunion Celebration Sunday Lunch in this delightful Pub. It was a huge success, thanks to All the staff. We were in a private room, which was marvellous. The Carvery Lunch gave us an superb choice of meats, vegetarian option, veggies, sauces, etc. superbly cooked, presented and served. The choices of sweets was excellent, too. Wines, Beers, Soft Drinks, Teas & Coffees great. The Chef who served at Carvery and ALL the young ladies who took our drinks orders, Sweet orders, etc., and who served them in our private room were exceptionally kind, friendly and efficient. Also helped by taking a couple of group photos of us all - Thank You, Ladies! Simply cannot fault anything in any way whatsoever.

I fail to understand why the cafe staff were unable to make a sandwich for the advertised Childrens boxed lunch today, after all it is only 2xquarters they get in the lunch box therefore they would have 2xquarters spare for the next customer. If you are unable to supply the advertised goods have the decency to remove the POS.

Blonde woman working in there was extremely rude taking out her bad temper on customers. Food wasn’t the best either…..

Gave a 2 because the waitress was lovely. Food terrible. Items missing, cold food, congealed cauliflower cheese and overcooked potatoes. Would not return! Did complain but fell on deaf ears.
