The best restaurants in Wessex South Somerset South West

As ever, Alessandro has got it right! The pizze are always great and he's always got a smile on his face. We go here regularly (pre-order and stop for a pint on the way!). I always have the carnivore (extra spicy) and the wife always has a margharita and at £18 for the two, a real bargain. He's only there Thursday, Friday and Saturday and it's always best to pre-order to ensure he hasn't run out of pizza dough! He's also in nearby Long Sutton on Wednesdays. Especially recommended

Some months ago we visited Somerton and decided to pop in for a coffee. It was 3.20pm. The lady at the gift shop counter said that we were too late for the cafe, so we left. Outside on the blackboard was written ‘last orders at 3.30pm’. It didn’t say when they closed. Today we were due to go to Somerton again so I looked up the cafe on Google and it said that they close at 4.30pm. At 3.35pm we walked in and one lady was cashing up whilst another was vacuuming. I pointed out the closing time on Google and was told, ‘There’s nothing we can do about that as the hours are set by Google!’ I replied that this wasn’t true. We run a business and know that all you have to do is use your Google login to change details such as hours.

Absolutely amazing food. My 11 yr old son words ‘the best burger I’ve ever had’ He has said that everytime we go. Excellent friendly staff, lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended for a family meal.

What a delightful place to stay at. We stayed for a couple of nights to visit the surrounding area and had the friendliest welcome and comfortable stay. James, the waiter in the evening, was a credit to them. He helped you choose what to eat and was attentive and friendly. The food was outstanding, especially the fish dishes. The breakfast was the best we have ever had and was cooked to order with local produce. Cannot wait to return.

We booked a table in advance for four to celebrate my mother-in-law’s 88th birthday. The welcome, food and service were excellent. We had afternoon tea; the sandwiches were “door stop” size with plenty of filling. Cakes and scones were excellent. We had to take some home as we couldn’t eat it all. Perfect celebration. The only disappointment is that they no longer accept tips on credit card so remember to take some cash…..!

Here for Christmas meal with the friends Lovely food and table Laid nicely Lovely Xmas decor Reasonable Price Good selection of drinks Very interesting eclectic environment Would return

Amazing service and amazing food! Really impressed with the whole menu. We loved the chips, fish and curry sauce! Strongly recommend!

Just a few pints in a great local pub.

We dined at 28 Market Place on Friday March 31st, a birthday meal. We were delighted by both the food and the service. The menu is reassuringly small, but sufficiently varied, and both my pickled mackerel starter and lamb rump main were very well cooked and presented, as were my wife’s linguine and cod. .Though certainly not cheap, it was fairly priced and good value, and considerably less expensive than the only plausible (though excellent) local rival in Bruton. Overall, it was a pleasurable experience, and we would be delighted to come again.

Lovely location, great food and friendly service. We went with our son and had a starter and main all the food was fantastic. Son had a pizza and my wife and I had steak and chips. Only given a 4 out of of 5 as a 10% gratuity as automatically added to the bill. To be honest I would have tipped any way as it was all great (and probably more than the 10% ) but I really to like the presumption that I want to tip. Will definitely go back though.

We celebrated my daughter’s 18th birthday with a party in The Globe function room. Truly fantastic service from start to finish - Kayleigh went above and beyond and I highly recommend her and team for your next function! Thanks again

We normally use our local in Ilchester but as this is the sister shop, thought we'd try. Unfortunately not a patch on Spice Corner. Very bland and watery mains, Tikka and North Indian garlic chicken. The blurb didn't mention dips so we ordered extra and then found they came anyway. I'm sure it's good here other times just not last night.

New owners have most definitely turned that place around. Everything we order has been top notch, we get pizzas and chicken Kebabs and they've always been outstanding and now the cans of pop are even cold, where as at one point they were very warm and not nice to drink. The new owners are very friendly and don't disappoint. Definitely worth the 5 stars now ✨️ From David & Kayleigh :D

Very nice food and good waitress .bar person not too friendly. Just had lunch in bar didnt stay.

Me and my partner and our friend and her baby went for dinner, the staff were really friendly and the food was amazing. Big shout out to Chaim who was very friendly and just amazing great service. Highly recommend going here !!!
