The best restaurants serving British food in South West

Great location, but let down with cheap ingredients, too much fat on the bacon and not enough bacon. I know it was mad busy, but food preparation requires more TLC

Saw this place on our way to Rockley park resort. They do special discount on Monday nights. We didn’t book but there was availability. Had a lovely table by the window. We were greeted by a friendly lady and shown to a table. She took our drinks order and gave us the menu, she explained they had been very busy at lunchtime with special offer- think it was 33% off n Mondays but they had plenty to choose from. Hubby had chicken burger and chips with salad- he said it was delicious and great portion and I had Mac n cheese with salad and chips which was piping hot and very tasty. We were full so no room for a pud but there was a good selection of puds. Great atmosphere and great value. We will go again when we are in the area again

Its just wow, what a pub full of characters exactly what pub should look. I have never done a review for any places in my life as I am very easy going person but this place couldn't resist me not to write. I would like to start from the entry of pub, as soon as we arrived car park looked empty but there were enough signs all over the place, we met one of the staff at car park who was tidying up leaves, he then came with us inside with nice smile and great us inside and ask us to register car so we did what he told us to do. Its very easy. long story short, big H behind the bar was beyond hospitable. We had a lovely table by conservatory with nice view of river weir, ordered drinks all fresh and nice very good Guinness and 6x. We then ordered food, my friend ordered pie which was wonderful, my sister's son ordered pizza which was one of the best we have ever had in Bath and Bristol, I ordered lamb Rogan Josh,which is another best Indian curry I have had in years and my sister had a special sea bass which was huge and so tasty which we still talk about it. overall food here in Jolly Sailor is just wow. It surprised me who wouldn't want to eat such a lovely food. Service is next level, I can guarantee, you would never get that kind of professional and next level service anywhere in the pub or restaurant. I got it, pub looks old as it is old pub. my only advise for patrons is, this pub is historical and service and food is mind blowing. If you want to get good food, good service and beautiful ambience and view this is the place. Very good value of money and once again big H keep up with your good work.

Great pub in a convenient location, couldn't believe it was almost empty, it is closing down due to lack of support, a great shame.

The ambience is lovely and the staff friendly. Unfortunately I don’t feel the food justifies the price. I felt disappointed by both portion size and quality of the food given the price.

Steak night and quiz night! Excellent host, who clearly was working hard to make everything go well.. Well done! Really enjoyed it all and will be back.

Good local pub that fitted us in for dinner at the last minute, and just after they'd closed the kitchen! Top service - recommended!

Had a really lovely family evening on Wednesday last week. Good food and even better service! Definitely would recommend to a friend !

Fantastic food and atmosphere! Real family pub run by family. Been going for years, just writing first review. We always visit when passing through Bristol.

Wow , an hidden gem hidden in plain site

Great breakfast reasonable price 👌🏻

Fantastic food. Great service. Large portions. Would like to eat there every day if I could 😊

A limited menu. Asked for a pint of lime and soda and a pint of blackcurrant and soda. The waiter said they didn't have soda, but suggested lemonade instead, which we accepted. When we had finished our bland food and got the bill, we found that the charge for each drink was £3.25 for the lemonade and £1.85 for the shot of cordial!!! We stayed at a different P Inn as part of the same holiday and paid £1.20 for a pint of lime and soda. How can there be such a huge discrepancy for the same drinks with the same company.???When we queried the price the barman laughed!! What a rip off! Avoid at all costs

We were staying at the attached premier inn at Frome and were able to book a table easily on the day, and the staff managed to squeeze us in a bit earlier than booking online. Great food, fillet steak & chicken & rib combo. Lovely staff, and many thanks to our server Abi-Ma, got us everything we wanted.

Excellent service from friendly, efficient staff serving a large family group.
