Literally the best roast I’ve ever had. I had the Rich’s carvery and I had the Turkey and Beef. I had to unbutton my pants to fit it all in but by God I didn’t want one delicious mouthful to go to waste. We also go the cider paddle which went down a treat, the classic cider was my favourite - it’s not too sweet and has more of a kombucha vibe so I felt healthy after my meal. The staff were soooo lovely including Kjerst who was very efficient, professional and sweet. And it was popping off for a Friday lunch as well! So reasonable for the price as well. Genuinely would say come out of your way anywhere in England to go here.

I wanted to book something a little different for my husband's birthday, he loves cider so it seemed like the perfect place. Ordered lunch today. Only one or two choices for Vegan and Vegetarian diets. The food was tasty and well presented. The staff were friendly and efficient. We sampled a cider tasting paddle which was fun! Visited the shop next door and bought some cider to take home. Will definitely visit again to sample the breakfast menu.

by far, the best carvery I've had around Somerset, spent a while in the farm shop, I would say local produce but it was all of the liquid kind then went in for our food, fancied the carvery and wow, check out the Yorkshire pudding in the pictures, flavours really good gravy exceptional an to top it off they serve their own ciders at the bar, love it, will defo be going again

Went into the restaurant and the food was lovely. Even though we didn't have the carvery which seemed very popular very reasonably priced and good service too. Would recommend

I visited as part of a group today. We enjoyed a delicious lunch in the restaurant and then had a tour. Our guide,Richard, was very knowledgeable and ,of course,we all enjoyed sampling various ciders afterwards! The shop sells a good selection of fresh and frozen foods,chutneys and jams. All in all a very enjoyable day.

Our first time here. Greeted with a friendly welcome and shown to our table. Bar and restaurant look good and all drinks and food are ordered at the table, much better than having to que at a bar. Good range of choices on the menu. We chose to have carveries, food was well cooked and good size portions. Couldn't resist trying a pudding after and highly recommend the Banoffe pie with a scoop of Marshfields ice-cream, delicious. Service from all the waitresses was friendly and quick. Enjoyed our first visit, so will be back to try more of the menu.Parking is easy, and there are a few disabled spaces next to the restaurant
