The best restaurants serving British food in Postlebury Mendip South West

I'll admit I am a difficult diner, gluten and dairy free and don't eat beef or pork. Menu did not have any chicken or veggie choices that weren't covered in breadcrumbs and the first person I was talking to wasn't at all helpful However. I was then offered a great vegetarian solution by another staff member and that was delicious and the service improved greatly. Would also like to comment on the atmosphere. Mostly good except for said first staff member was also hell bent on throwing every empty bottle in to the bottle bin with force that seemed excessive and was startling.

Great service and a great place to eat

Really surprised how I feel after our visit here here for breakfast. Stopped off for a late breakfast brunch. It was very quiet. And very muggy and warm inside. Big sign that says Wait to be seated - so we did. Then told to sit anywhere. Service was vaguely good. Excellent at times and dire at others. Got a menu. Placed an order. Little interaction from the waitress, but she seemed competent. First the coffee - wish I could use Emojis here. You know the one with the puking face. Sums it up. Bitter, stale and horrible flavour. Barely drinkable though I've had worse. Then the breakfast. One full English - greasy but ok - mediocre would be fair. But the worst bit was the smashed Avocado on sourdough. Bleeeuuugggghhhhh. The white bread toast did not resemble sour dough at all, it just looked and tasted like white toast, but I could have lived with that. A pile of Avocado and two poached eggs. One egg was undercooked with a runny white (YUCK), the other rock solid?? And the avocado was tasteless, dry and just horrible. So horrible that I barely touched it. I waited for the waitress to come over and check everything was ok? she didn't. So eventually I took the plate to the counter. She didn't look up and just said thank you (as if I had brought the dirty crockery back) and went to the till to charge for our breakfast. I said I wasn't ready to pay and that I had brought my breakfast back because it was dry and horrible. She didn't even raise an eyebrow, just said she wouldn't charge for it. She didn't say sorry or even ask if I wanted something else?? I didn't bother to tell her how foul the coffee was. True to her word we didn't pay for my breakfast, but the other breakfast plus two vile coffees was nearly £20. Save your money and go elsewhere. Wish we had. The waitress was on her phone in between serving food and really not bothered. Not impressed. We go out for breakfast often and this was the worst breakfast I have EVER been served. I could forgive the rotten coffee - I am a fuss pot when it comes to coffee but there is no excuse for poor food.
