The best restaurants serving Other european-cuisines food in South West

Very nice food and friendly staff at this very atmospheric and 'comfortable' cafe. Highly decorated for the festive season.

Ubicado en un edificio clásico de Bath, el restaurante cuenta con dos mitades a las que se accede al entrar por la parte posterior del restaurante y volver a la parte de atrás para la segunda mitad. Las habitaciones se envuelven alrededor de la puerta de entrada principal y la escalera al edificio (la puerta está separada para los residentes de arriba). Nos encontrábamos con amigos y esperábamos una buena noche. La comida no me decepcionó, sin embargo, nos pareció que el servicio era un poco desdeñoso y excesivamente lento, no había ninguna posibilidad de sentirse apurado. Además de eso, cada vez que se abría la puerta, estábamos sometidos a una ráfaga de viento helado. También se sentía como si muchos lugares estuvieran abarrotados en el restaurante: una mesa o dos menos le habrían dado un ambiente más relajado. Si puedes soportar eso, la comida valió la pena.

Have eaten here several times in the last few years and find the Hood Arms consistent in the high standard of their food. Recommended.

What a perfect spot for a leisurely evening of cheese and wine! There's nothing better than unwinding at the bar after a long day, relishing good company. Sam is phenomenal at pairing the wine and cheese, ensuring each selection enhances your experience deliciously. It makes me sad that it has now closed.

A quick stop, only bottles ales, draught lager and cider. The food looks great and a fab price, although as per normal, we don't eat out. At the bar, a local lady said the food was fantastic and from what I saw , I cannot disagree. Lovely welcome from the barmaid with the colourful hair!

Just had a couple of nights at Dormy house hotel (at which the back garden is one of the 2 restaurants) We ate at the back garden on the first night Let me preface this by saying the hotel and the chefs table restaurant (Mo, which we dined at on the second night) are top notch - I’ve reviewed them separately also If I’m being honest though, the Back Garden was a bit of a let down Setting - lovely Service - great Wine and cocktails - fab I think we just made a few bad choices in terms of dishes (which are always subjective at the end of the day) Emma had the gazpacho - we love a gazpacho, this one just felt a bit thin and lacking seasoning. It was almost trying to be a bit too delicate I’d say the same about my starter, I had the hot smoked salmon salad - it just didn’t taste of much, needed more dressing. Just something to bring it to life? Emma’s main - the curried Kiev was top notch I had the roast cod in a mussel veloute sauce. Nice, but only 3 mussels? Emma didn’t have a dessert, I was intrigued by the sheep’s cheese, honey comb and Eccles cake dessert (the most expensive at £14) It just didn’t work for me - two small blobs of cheese, a small square of honeycomb and a small (beautifully baked) Eccles cake - it just didn’t hang together, I’m not sure what it was meant to deliver? We had a pleasant evening (thanks everyone) but compared to the rest of the stay we felt it missed the mark

Lovely birthday lunch in the Botanical Rooms at the incredibly restored Newt. Had heard much of the place, was gently scared of who might be attracted to somewhere where so much cash had been so obviously spaffed at its renovation. Should not have feared. At all. Not only were the other guests entirely normal (families, couples) but in the entire visit there was only one buffoon wanging on his mobile about acceptable rates of return while wearing presumably horrifically-expensive tramp-chic trackie bottoms... and he was only in the porch. Possible due to discreetly forceful staffing. I have no idea (but one can dream, eh ?). Food was superb. Actually, perfectly sized for lunch - beautiful mushrooms, perfectly cooked fish, cleverly presented carrot with flank steak. Clearly, an expert was toiling away. Service was genuinely superb - even down to the recommending of a South African non-alcoholic drink called something like SpamWhacker or BritHitter or something. Brilliant stuff. Anyway, well done, thank you, delicious. Great wines, too. Tip: if you have lunch there, you can get over to the Roman Villa that they've painstakingly reconstructed. It really is quite something. It really is.

Excellent value, imaginative and tasty menu with delightful young staff. We had pork escalope as our main followed by apple crumble. 3 course meal for under a tenner each..

I ordered a ploughman’s with a side of fries & my partner ordered a lasagne, you would think that it would be difficult to serve up a poor ploughman’s.. but not here .. pickled onions 🧅 that were rotten and well past a use by date, the most basic of iceberg lettuce with a piece of chopped pepper, brown apple slices & some other awful tasting looking picked white cabbage 👎 chips that were full of black eyes, the only saving grace was the ham, The lasagne had been clearly been made some days previous and was just over cooked & subsequently reheated a few times to end up dry with chewy Pasta 👎 seriously these are Not difficult meals to turn out! Incredibly poor & just goes to reiterate why sometimes you are better off with a restaurant chain - don’t wast your money on food here - awful 👎

Wasn't open at 12.30 today, Monday. Coach load of unhappy passengers! And, of course, as the driver, it's my fault.

We had the lunchtime tasting menu- it was very nice with some lovely tasting food. But all the very elaborate cooking was often lost- we couldn’t taste the hay in the hay baked beetroot (even though it was very tasty) and the foam with the (remarkably small portion) sea bass just tasted a bit milky. We wondered if the chef might try a little less hard and end up with the same impact. Service was friendly and generally attentive, although it got stretched when two parties of six arrived.

Beautiful setting overlooking lush gardens. Excellent, attentive service. Bread basket provided which was a nice touch. Had the Cornish lamb with lynonnaise potatoes which was very tasty and perfectly cooked vegetables. Wine list, bar drinks and good Prosecco served in small bottles.

Absolutely lovely place, my partner and I were celebrating and went for a nice date here. Great food with lovely decor, chef even refunded us the price of our desserts as they weren’t satisfied with the presentation (still tasted amazing). Will definitely be back again this summer, would recommend.

Great chicken kebab today, Odd thing is they no longer open at lunchtime ? Staff are friendly enough food is good enough, people say the pizzas are ok as well

The cafe is in a spectacular setting overlooking the creek set in a pretty garden. We arrived on what is possibly the last day we will see warmth and sunshine, hence we hot footed it here. We had the platter for two. It was a very generous portion; smoked salmon, ham, mackerel, prawns, various cheeses, olives, chutney, silverskin onions with bread and cheese scones. We both enjoyed it, though we were not super keen on the prawns but really liked the ham. And the chutney is so so good. The tea was excellent,and my partner enjoyed his mocktail. Prices are very reasonable. This is definitely a place to come. And it is beautiful to walk around here, very peaceful. It's a place to sit back and relax in. You should not expect fast service. Check if it's open on their Facebook site. It will be closed pretty soon now. I think they aim to stay open until mid October but this is very weather dependent. Parking is very limited in Coombe. One needs to find space on the side of the single track road as one drives in. There is only turning space at the bottom. Whenever we have come to Coombe, we have not had a problem finding somewhere .
