The best restaurants serving British food in South Somerset South West

An unexpectedly great restaurant, with interesting and beautifully cooked food. Great service, wish we could still eat there!

Cosy little tea room tucked away in a lovely village close to the A303 under Ham Hill. Great selection of teas as well as home made cakes. Today's pick - Lemon drizzle, banana and brown butter sponge, Victoria sponge and my choice Orange and Polenta cake. Delicious And whilst you tuck away there's 1940's tunes playing in the background. Well worth a stopover.

we found this lovely place by accident. Wonderful food, totally fresh and clean and home cooked in lovely cosy surroundings. Comfy chairs, sparkling dishes and cutlery, everything was spotless and the people who run it were charming. A lovely place to relax and enjoy lovely food or simply some coffee and maybe a bit of cake. Really a charming place.

Fresh fish and chips friendly staff on the sea front. Nice place to sit outside. Price invludes a drink too clean i would recommend them to everyone

A wonderfully friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Bright and spotlessly clean. A wonderful wide variety of light bites, cakes and breakfasts . Specials board changes regularly. Great coffee. We love meeting family here and all our individual needs are always well catered for. Highly recommended.

Cafe and shop connected to Coombe Farm - off the main road near Crewkerne; lovely food, easy parking, nice folks. Very high quality organic produce and cooking, priced accordingly. The meat, as you might imagine, is spectacularly good. Great for a family lunch, tea and cake or a peaceful read.

I took my friend to Matt's last night as a birthday treat -- and it was! I hadn't been back to Matt's for a few years and it was delightful to see how he has kept pace with modern presentational trends while holding fast to his very personal style. I love how Matt brings back influences from his foreign travels. I can't list the whole menu, but Lamb mechoui was a treat, with a fresh 'pop' of pickled radish on top, crispy chick peas and vegetable cous cous. Check his monthly menu! Matt's Kitchen holds its own with aplomb and a warm welcome, in ever-so-trendy Bruton! No worries. Just go -- and take your own bottle.

So pleased to find the cafe opened! Great cup of tea - just the ticket to start the journey from Yeovil Junction. Sausage rolls and small cake selection certainly looked tasty and hope to sample some on the next visit!

We had a lovely meal here at the New Farm Restaurant, particularly the starters and mains. I would highly recommend. We didn't care for the puddings, but that was down to preference.

What an amazing cafe! 👏 The staff were courteous and good at their jobs and the food was delicious. Highly recommended 👌 👍 👏

Read about this place on National Geographic magazine years ago and always wanted to try. The Sunday Roast sharing platter was perfectly cooked and the vegetables were amazingly tasty. Portions were very generous as well. The staff were very attentive and friendly.

Stopped en-route to north Devon and wanted a cafe rather than fast food. Discovered this fab little cafe right near the car park. Great variety on the menu, the staff were lovely and the food was really good quality cafe food and reasonably priced. We will definitely pop in again when in that neck of the woods 👍

We had the most delightful evening at The Bay Tree last night for a Christmas meetup with friends. From the moment we walked in, the warm, welcoming atmosphere made us feel right at home. The food? Absolutely amazing! You simply can't beat the taste of home-cooked meals crafted with care, and The Bay Tree delivers that in every bite. Each dish was bursting with flavour and cooked to perfection—truly a treat for the taste buds! Rene and Kevin were, as always, absolutely fantastic. Their hospitality, attention to detail, and friendly demeanor made the whole experience even more special. If you're looking for a cosy, delicious, and memorable dining experience, The Bay Tree is the place to be. Highly recommended!

Friendly, amazing coffee & homemade cakes, see the goats & taste Roses cheese , great place to meet friends and make friends, there are chickens, a cat & dog all waiting to be made a fuss of .

My son and daughter in law took me for a special birthday treat. The ambience is just right with the upstair reception area a nice way to start the evening. The food was perfectly cooked and presented with just the right of amount of attention from the staff. Thank you for the little cake and candle to finish off the evening.
