Restaurants in Ilminster
The Five Dials Inn
Hanning Rd, IlminsterThe room was lovely and comfy. Very clean and modern.
The food was amazing and extremely tasty. I’d drive back to the pub simply for the food alone.
The owners were lovely and very down to earth. You can tell their business means a lot to them. I can’t recommend this place enough.

The Bell at Broadway
Broadway Rd, Broadway, IlminsterThis review it mainly for the pub. We spent Friday and Saturday night there. It is a really nicely decorated space. Very cosy. You can see their big pizza oven and a chef preparing food. We were welcomed by lovely Isa who went over the menu with us, and was funny and helpful. We were also served by Sam, who was equally friendly and took our question about the menu seriously and was happy to help us. They were both highlights of our visit. Both nights, we were excited to chat to them and hear their recommendations. I wish more businesses had staff like them, truly making a visit special. Thank you for lovely time.
We had pizza and incredible burger first night, and pasta and customised veggie dish the second night. All very nice ?? you could tell it was fresh and prepared from good ingredients.

The New Inn
Cudworth Road, Dowlish Wake, IlminsterWhat a beautiful little village. Very quiet and the locals are very friendly.
Nicky the landlady was exceptional, very warm, jolly and friendly on our arrival. Nothing was to much effort. We loved taking part in the local quiz night which takes part on the first sunday of the month.
Look forward to staying again one day.

Stonemasons
Harts Cl, IlminsterVery nice atmosphere but I would be cautious of the light fittings as nearly all the red lamp shades are melted & look like they couldn't catch fire at any point ! You need a low watt candle bulb that doesn't get to hot ?

West Street Fish & Chips
6 West St, IlminsterFirst night of holiday. After the long drive no one wanted to cook so we all decided on Fish and chips. Quick search on maps and this one came up highly rated. Parked in the car park opposite and joined the long queue. ordering was quick and easy and given a number. Fish was cooked to order so it was lovely and fresh. Chips were great and a decent portion size for large. The wait was not too long. Would absolutely recommend and if ever in the vicinity would make the trip to try them again.

The Dolphin
The Dolphin, 22 Silver St, IlminsterA respectable establishment worthy of a visit. This is a PUB in the most traditional sense. It is unprentious, well stocked, professionally run by experts in their field. There is no shortage of seating. The facility is clean and well managed. It is wheel chair accessible. Seating is both indoor and outdoor. It is a credit to Ilminster.

Lottie's Snack Pod
A358, ChardLotties is awesome. All orders are cooked fresh, good selection of food. Customer service is 10/10. The big winner for me is although this is a road-side Snack Shack Lottie takes both Cash AND CARDS! I find this great as I often don't have any cash on me.
Parking: Lottie is in a large lay-by well clear of the main road. Plenty of room to park up and the lay-by is nice an shady on a hot sunny day.
Wheelchair accessibility: Lotties is in a large Lay-by well off of the main road. No steps, no obstructions.

Balti House - Fully Licensed Bar
4A Ditton St, IlminsterWe came down from Cardiff to visit family in Chard and we stopped by this nice spot in Ilminster. It’s a halal place with lovely staff who gave great recommendations. The chicken tikka and lamb biryani were both delicious, served with tadka daal and poppadoms. The atmosphere was really nice—great music, warm lighting, and a vibrant bar area. Takeaway was ready in under 10 minutes, with cutlery provided too! The staff who served us were Bangladeshi and they were so excited to know we were Bangladeshi too!

Vincent's Fish Bar & Restaurant
32 Ditton St, Ilminster⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Hands down the best fish and chips in town! The fish is always fresh with really light, crispy batter and the chips are spot on – proper old-school chippy style. Portions are generous and good value too.
The team are always friendly and make you feel welcome, and the place is clean and well looked after. I’ve tried a few chip shops around Somerset and this one is easily the top pick. If you’re in Ilminster, you won’t be disappointed!”

The Golden Ocean
19 West St, IlminsterWanted to share our experience due to the mixed reviews for this place (now called China Garden!) We’ve ordered from here twice now and had great food both times. As a vegan, I really appreciated the great veggie selection on the menu and the added bonus of salt and pepper tofu (not on the menu but kindly made for us both times!). The portion sizes are good, the price is reasonable and the wait time for collection was just 15 minutes, so super quick, fresh and hot food. The service was fabulous with some freebies added too. We will be back soon. In short - please don’t be put off by earlier reviews when the business was under different management!

Burger King
Horton Cross A303, Horton Cross, IlminsterThe next 2 hours of our 6 hour driving expedition stared ahead of us like looking down the barrel of a gun, this Burger King became the light that ignited the hope we needed to make it home.
The sun shot through the pigeon poo stained windows and we dined like kings on our 3 whoppers and another 3 whoppers.
Above all else, it was the sight of a roadside legend that sent excitement through our veins - we were graced by the presence of Sharon.
We tried to keep our cool as she restocked the fridge.
No doubt we will be back, with the aim of breaking the silence and ordering a began sausage roll for the queen of the Greggs coffee cards herself.
Thank you Burger King.
