The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Wells Central Mendip South West

A sandwich bar with some seating inside. A varied menu not just sandwiches. we did have sandwiches which were very nice. the prices were reasonable and the staff very pleasant.

Beautiful, beautiful place to take a leisurely walk around. Lots of history and the addition of knowledgeable guides was much appreciated.

Yummy food, quick service and clean cafe! Very cosy vibes with a wise range of seating. I had french toast and breakfast burger ans it was delicious!!

Popped in on a quiet sunny March time. It had a few customers which grew in numbers during our time there. We had a lovely greeting, and teh quality of service was kept up during our visit. The food was tasty and reasonably priced

Good value, great taste. We had the cappachino together with a hot chocolate served with a very friendly, chatty service. Made it all worthwhile.

Coffee was tasty. Although felt pretty ignored by what I assume was the manager and maybe a shift leader. I felt uncomfortable and like a third wheel. Could cut the sexual tension with a knife! Such a shame as I enjoyed my flat white, but won’t be returning.

Good place to start the day - very decent coffee and egg with avocado on toast. Staff friendly and efficient. Open and airy space - in a good way.

My friend and I have been meeting at Bishop’s Ey since they first opened several years ago. Sometimes it’s just a coffee or other times it is lunch. This week we met for coffee and went inside as it was a dismal, chilly day. We ordered our hot drinks and then waited about 10 minutes to receive them despite only a few customers. My friend’s coffee was ok but my ‘hot’ chocolate was anything but hot. We chatted for about 45 minutes and then tried to attract the attention of the young women who were waitresses. In the end, I said “excuse me” as the 2 waitresses and the woman behind the counter had been in deep conversation the whole time we had been there. One young woman turned and when I asked for the bill she told me to go to the till which we did! I asked if the business had changed hands to which the young woman said “no”! A young man eating his lunch intervened and said yes that it had been taken over some weeks before. I said that it showed and upon his asking in which way, we both replied that the customer service was non-existent. Bishop’s Eye will survive during the tourist season but they need to remember that it is the locals that will get them through the winter months! We two will find another space for our get togethers.

Only had one lady in front of me and after she was served I stood and waited for well over 5 mins with two staff members ( chatting ) who didn’t even acknowledge me or ask me what I would like … they even looked at me and it was like they blanked me . After another few minutes of nothing happening, not even sorry we’ll be with you in a minute. I decided to walk out and had a coffee elsewhere. Terrible service .I’d leave zero stars if I could .

Really poor service from the kitchen Bar staff were good Food was passable

The coffee is really disaster don’t know how to make coffee very disappointed

Parked in store car park, noticed cafe so decided to return after a visit to cathedral etc Returned at 1pm on a Sunday to find that the new quiche that was advertised on all tables was out of stock as were the next 4 different things we asked for off the menu board. Including jacket potatoes! Last time I looked Waitrose sell potatoes? Offered no suggested alternatives, poor service considering cafe open for another 4 hours

In September, a good friend, board member and resident of Somerset, took us on a three day tour of her “home area.” We visited Wells, primarily to see the great Cathedral there, but after that visit to the Cathedral, and surrounding sites, I declared “wine thirty,” so we headed to the pub in The Crown at Wells. First, The Crown at Wells is an inn, then next, a restaurant, and finally a pub/bar. It was in the latter, that we took a table. The wine list was short, and we got the Chablis, while our “tour guide” had coffee. The restaurant and pub/bar seem to be separated, and not just in the sitting areas. I approached the bar, to order the wine and the coffee, and was directed to the “other room.” Once around the corner, in the adjoining room, I walked up to that bar (same bar, but on the other side), and the same gentleman could now serve me. The bar area had two “windows,” and apparently one was for the restaurant side of the operation, and the other for the pub. This was rather odd to me, but I had a good laugh over it. Perhaps the bartender had a good laugh at me, going from side to side of that bar area? Also, I had to be certain to pay, on the correct side. All very confusing for this “Yank.” All service was friendly, and though the Chablis was served much too cold, we had an enjoyable hour, sipping wine and coffee, and recounting our busy day, and especially Wells Cathedral and its grounds. A comfortable pub for a bit of a pause, and some wine. If we had not had reservations to dine elsewhere, the menu looked interesting, and so long as I found the right side of the bar to order from, would probably have been very good. Neat, historic inn/pub, and worth our stopping in – just get instructions on which side of the bar to order from.
