Perfect... and yet so average…read more This place has gotten so much right: - An amazing décor that instantly gives you that warm, cosy feeling (something that a lot of new buildings in particular lack) whilst still being modern and contemporary. The finishing touches like the outdoor fireplace, rotisserie chicken, indoor wood burner and large kitchen window (allowing you to see the chefs in action) really set this place apart from other chain-owned pubs. - A great team of staff that are both friendly, efficient and genuinely try to ensure you have a good experience - An impressive selection of ale and lagers on offer (it is a brewery-owned chain after all) And yet there is one key piece missing from the list above, the food. The food here I can only describe as average, which for the higher than other chain-owned pubs prices is a bit of a disappointment. A bit tasteless is how I would best describe the food, not bad but also not great. Overall this place has amazing potential, it's in a good location (just off the motorway M5,J24) next to a lot of new housing developments, a great building, superb staff and a wide selection of drinks. If only the food can be improved then this will become a superb little gem of a place.

I was stuck in Bridgwater wanting to watch a British Lions rugby game early in the morning. I found…read morethe match on at the Cobblestones. What a lifesaver! I had a nice beer even though it was early in the morning and a lovely bacon roll and afterwards me and my boyfriend went and played skittles in their skittle alley. A nice pub with a nice atmosphere.

Easily the worst pub in Bridgwater and by some distance. If I could award it zero stars I would…read more If you're ever in need of a drink when leaving Bridgwater train station please don't go in this stinking hell hole. It is a home to social misfits who are incapable of interacting with the rest of society. On an occasion I had the misfortune of entering there was a dog turd in the middle of the floor - 'nuff said.

Unfortunately they were out of the beef so I went with pork and it was still delicious! My friend recommend we order the CHEESE CAULIFLOWER, which was so delicious. Do you want some cauliflower with your cheese? :) Clearly I'm very American because CHEESE BOARDS are served as desserts here. Who would have thought?! Of course I had to get the STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING and it was so worth the calories. ENJOY!

OK, lets start with the down side. It's not the best food I've ever had, but I am in my 51st year…read more(damn!) and I've been in a hell of a lot of pubs, hostelries and restaurants and that's a tough call. So, the good stuff? The food is good. I went there on Monday, it's now Tuesday and I'm going back on Friday to eat. The pub itself? Nice building, tastefully refurbished, classy but not inaccessible; comfortable. Well stocked bar? check, good menu? check, friendly staff? check (make that a very check) not in your face, but always about and able to answer your every call. And so damn cheerful! If you've read any of my other reviews, you'll know that my wife is lactose and gluten intolerant; does make eating out a bit of a problem, but not here, the first mention of the requirement and the waiting and kitchen staff spring into action (and still so damn cheerful about it, they even sing!) Would I go back there? Well I am on Friday and yes after that definitely, why am i waiting so long? The portions are very generous, I'll need from now to Friday to build up my appetite again. Seriously, this pub is very, very good and I heartily recommend it to all you Qypers out there if ever you're down this way.
