The best restaurants serving British food in Mendip South West

So good.. the cheese and bacon savoury was amazing! Greggs doesn’t even come close!

Excellent covid arrangements. Chocolate torte wow. Apple cake wow. Milkshake perfect. Strawberry of course.

No salad on a Monday lunchtime? I wanted a chicken caesar salad but ended up with a tuna melt panini instead which was tasty enough but nothing special. Staff were ok service pretty quick but wouldn't rush back

Arrived in Mells for first time and spotted cafe which we entered immediately after a lengthy journey. Cafe was due to close in 15 minutes so we placed our order with the young assistants. However the owner came in from the post office and rudely instructed us and his assistants that we would have to have a take away due to it closing. We still had 15 minutes! So we went outside on a cold day to drink our coffee. Another group of people arrived shortly after and managed to get served without the boss knowing. They also came outside. The boss returned looked outside and stared at me like daggers as though it was all my fault his closing time might be slightly delayed. I didn’t respond. He then went back next door grabbed the doormat and started beating it vehemently against the wall of the shop with dust flying everywhere. Not a good first impression of Wells!

Good afternoon , just want to give some feedback to our disappointing visit to Passeys today . We booked for breakfast and everyone in our group agreed that half the breakfast was cold or warm at the best . One breakfast had a hair in it also . This is not good at all for the premium price charged . We have been several times before as a group of six or less with no problems. I wanted to discuss with the lady serving but one of our group did not want to cause a scene so we just paid and left . This used to be our go to place on Sunday morning . It’s the most expensive breakfast in Portobello, and the quality of food does not now justify the price . We won’t be back .

Amazing food. We had the Christmas menu. A lovely environment. The staff are friendly and very helpful. Couldn't recommend more.

We had an amazingly delicious brunch, Inc classic maple/bacon combo and an extraordinary (and top-notch) pistachio latte

There is now a restaurant trading as Cafe Sol at this address. We only went because Rainbow's End next door is shut on Wednesdays, but it's very good! I had halloumi wrap with Greek salad and sweet potato chips aka fries, which were good anyway, but the best thing I had was their home-made elderflower lemonade, which had more body than most elderflower drinks yet was still refreshing. The service is rather on the relaxed side but don't let the put you off!

Taking into consideration its location, its staff, its cuisine, its ambiance, its clientele and not forgetting its log fire, The Strode Arms in the village of Cranmore is quite possibly the best place for miles around to go out to for a relaxed and enjoyable evening meal. Charming hostess, busy chef, imaginative and tastefully presented food and a splendid time being had by one and all.

After reading the reviews I thought this would be the place to go whilst in the area but I was wrong. You can park right outside which is a good point. The food and service was fast another good point. The first gripe is it is like stepping back 20 years. They want you to pay cash, fair enough, however it is plastered everywhere. A4 pieces of paper stuck to every window, every door, all over the counter and everywhere else you can imagine you telling you to pay cash and the reasons for that. Get with the times and if you dont want to get with the times then request the customer pays cash via one sign at the till, not stuck to everyone, slightly surprised staff were not wearing T shirts requesting cash only as well. Food was not up to scratch. The chips had a weird brown blemish on pretty much all of them and they were therefore binned.

Fantastic tasty Sunday lunches . Really friendly staff. Nice wine . Would utterly recommend. Looking forward to coming back

On entering the restaurant through a small door, unwelcoming staff, no interaction with customers or children, menu was okay, not enough healthy vegan options, would not be recommending too my work colleagues, friends and family, my words would be AVOID

A friend and I had afternoon tea today, absolutely amazing value! A massive selection of sandwiches and sweet treats, beautifully presented and accompanied with china tea pot, cups, saucers & plates. Can’t recommend highly enough

We have very few “go-to” places, but Fattso has been a firm favourite on that list for a few years now. They are consistent in the quality, flavours and textures. There are without a doubt the best burgers, ANYWHERE. Friendly team always working hard. Normally a queue, but a great burger is worth the wait. Always ask what specials they have. Tonight I had the Oklahoma. Previously, the Baby Blue. But the Fattso hits the spot on the regular menu. There are vegetarian options too. My wife’s choice is the Big Fat Hello (halloumi) burger.

What a fabulous breakfast. My husband had the GG one .it was massive. I had the garden centre one. They were both excellent. Great value . Tasty , with a large mug of coffee. Very friendly staff. Even our dog received a sausage and a lot of fuss. Comfortable and roomy. And the cakes looked to die for. Unfortunately to far from home. If this way again would definitely visit again
