The best restaurants serving British food in Wessex South Somerset South West

2 dinners running at this fantastic country pub. The vegetarian food was exceptional. First evening we mentioned there wasn’t a lot of vegetarian meals. 2nd evening a special vegetarian menu. That’s what I call customer service. If you are in the area make this your number one choice.

Cannot express how fantastic this family friendly pub is. We celebrated our sons birthday here and all staff went above and beyond to help us celebrate. Food was great, atmosphere was electric. Management were brilliant!

Such a friendly team in a lovely pub atmosphere. Good selection on the menu, with food coming out in good time. Great quality ingredients

On a day trip to Somerton we explored the town and found this inviting cafe with a good menu with many selections. It was busy but we were found a table for four. Sadly that was just about as good as it got. We were each given a menu and we were told we'd be asked for our choices shortly. We made our selection and we waited. And waited. And waited. New arrivals came and they were served before us. We advised the staff THREE TIMES that we were ready to place our order and we were promised that we would be next. So we waited again. And again. After FORTY MINUTES we'd had enough and left. The table next to us thought the service to us was appalling. If they were happy to lose over £60 worth of business, fair enough, but we won't be going back to find out. We ended up at Wetherspoons in Street where we had our food within 5 minutes of ordering for half the price. Maybe not as good a quality as we might have had from them, but now we'll never know. And neither will they.

I can only imagine that the people who write excellent reviews have never been out of Somerton or experienced what truly great fish and chips is like. If your idea of the perfect fish and chip supper is greasy chips and soggy batter on the fish, then you will love this place, if however you prefer light and crispy batter that has a bit of a crunch and nice fluffy chips that don’t need the fat wringing out of them, then I truly recommend you go elsewhere

Not one to often leave a bad review but.. we ordered a few things, sides were ok, but we ordered buratta and instead got a solid mozzarella ball, not a drop off creaminess inside. And the purple Additionally I had a ceaser salad that had about 50g of chicken on the plate, some romaine lettuce and a sprinkle of crispy bacon. The "ceaser dressing" was just mayonnaise, with maybe a hint of mustard which was shocking to see. Extremely disappointed with the food and the fact they used fancy words in the menu, presumably to entice you, and then didn't deliver. Only reason I am not giving a one star is cause the server was apologetic and agreed to refund us fir the two terrible meals.

Myself and my friends went for our first on Easter Sunday and had the Carvery. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. The staff were welcoming and attentive. Also they have a great selection of alcholic and non alcoholic drinks. Would 100% recommend.

Unpleasant chef / manager who treats staff poorly and does not follow legislation for young workers. An angry, vindictive bully and controlling.
