Queen Vic - Mendip

We visit this pub regularly throughout the year and always have a wonderful experience, whether it's Winter or Summer. The meals are reasonably priced and filling, and a nice pint of Guinness is always a bonus. The cozy atmosphere is complemented by the roaring log fires, making it the perfect country pub. It can get busy, so we recommend booking ahead during peak times.

Visited lunch time today with my wonderful Mum of 98 years old. What a super place to have our lunch. We stumbled across this pub having planned to visit Cheddar Gorge but unfortunately it was closed. We live in Tatworth near Chard. Having travelled for 1.5 hours, we decided to find somewhere for lunch. From walking into this pub to the very bubbly and helpful lady behind the bar and reserving our table to the fab toilet doors everything about this pub was just brilliant. Oh yes and the leek and potato soup was so tasty with a warm baguette. Thank you. We hope to return again.

We arranged a family lunch. It was a large group of us (13 adults and one child) so we booked in advance. When we arrived the pub was very busy and we were concerned that our large order may take some time to be cooked and would it all arrive at the same time. We need not have worried. The food arrived in good time and all of it was brought to the table virtually together. My steak pit was absolutely delicious and there were only complimentary comments from the rest of the group. The quality of the chips received was highlighted. The quality of the food and the exceptional service made the lunch a really enjoyable experience. The Queen Victoria is well worth a visit.

Place is nice enough a bit cramped, the service has a lot to be desired though. We may have got them on a bad day but they really made us all feel they would prefer for us to not be there, maybe because we weren’t regulars, to be fair it was only one member of the bar staff. We only live down the road in Wells so would have used this more often but I doubt if we will now. Some people aren’t suited to the service industry I guess.

Five of us went to the queen Victoria Inn for dinner. Being late in December we were worried that we may not get a table, however we did not have a problem as we had several options. Both the service and the food were very good. Would certainly recommend a visit.
