The Flying Fish Pub & Restaurant
Wood Road, Windmill Hill Lane, Ashill, IlminsterMyself, my husband (Steve Blackmore) and our two Great danes had a lovely stay! Kate couldn't do enough to accomodate us, she was brilliant, as you can imagine taking our fur babies anywhere can be a logistical nightmare ?
The rooms where perfect, huge bed for us and large enough for the dane beds.
Food was fabulous, the staff were lovely.
What a great place ! Thank you all. ❤️

Stonemasons
Harts Cl, Ilminster⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Outstanding Customer Service!
I cannot praise Naomi highly enough for the exceptional customer service she provided. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to ensure everything was taken care of, demonstrating a level of professionalism, kindness and genuine dedication that is increasingly rare.
Nothing was too much trouble. Naomi was incredibly helpful, patient, approachable and attentive, making the entire experience an absolute pleasure. Her willingness to go the extra mile, combined with her friendly and positive attitude, made a lasting impression.
Naomi sets the level for excellent customer service. She doesn't only do her job; she takes pride in ensuring customers feel valued, listened to and completely looked after.
Naomi is an absolute credit to her team and a shining example of what exceptional customer service should look like. Her hard work, dedication and fantastic attitude deserve to be recognised.
If every customer service experience were as good as the one Naomi provided, the world would be a much better place!
Thank you, Naomi. Your efforts were genuinely appreciated, and you deserve every bit of recognition that comes your way.
An easy five stars. Absolutely exceptional! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

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 New Inn
Cudworth Road, Dowlish Wake, IlminsterOur go-to spot for a Sunday roast! The food is proper, home-cooked-style food with really generous portions, and the £2.50 puddings are the perfect way to finish. They’re also so lovely with our toddler, which makes such a difference when eating out as a family. We love coming here and the Sunday roast never disappoints. A proper local gem!

The Bell at Broadway
Broadway Rd, Broadway, IlminsterOne of the best tasting roasts I've had in a while. Food was good, atmosphere was pleasant. Staff were friendly.
Dropped a star only because it took a fair while to order a drink. Would definitely come again.

The Kitchen on Silver Street
14 Silver St, IlminsterHaving rebooked afternoon tea we couldn't have been happier with the service and attention to every aspect. The quality of the sandwiches, scones & cakes were excellent. My coffee was hot and very full flavoured. Although the booking hadn't reached the Litchen they turned around what could have been disastrous into a delightful afternoon.

The Royal Oak
The Cross, IlminsterFabulous. Our first ,and won't ve last, visit.
I had won a 2 course meal for 2 and we were looking forward to it...and weren't disappointed!
Such a friendly welcome on arrival.
They kept tomato juice in stock..not everyone does.
Excellent Roast. Great range of veg, including creamed leeks. Good gravy. Roasties done to perfection.We were advised the beef would be rare unless we preferred well done. Rare is how we wanted it and it was excellent.
As it happened my husband wasn't feeling too well..he actually had an emergency appendix removal 48 hours later...so we left before our dessert. They REFUSED to let us pay for our drinks as we weren't having dessert. I had a g n t and he 2 tomato juices!
What more can l say?
Win win all round.
We will definitely return when he is recovered!
Thank you x

The Dolphin
The Dolphin, 22 Silver Street, 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.

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!”

Balti House - Fully Licensed Bar
4A Ditton Street, IlminsterAbsolutely fantastic meal from start to finish! The food was fresh, full of flavour, and cooked to perfection. We ordered a chicken korma, chicken balti, butter chicken, vegetable curry, bombay aloo, chips, rice, and 4 different naan breads, and every dish was delicious.
The chicken dishes were rich and tender, with the korma beautifully creamy, the balti packed with flavour, and the butter chicken absolutely outstanding. The vegetable curry and bombay aloo were equally impressive, perfectly seasoned and full of taste. The naan breads were fresh and fluffy, and everything arrived hot and well-presented.
The service was excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who made us feel very welcome. Overall, it was one of the best Indian meals we've had in a long time. We thoroughly enjoyed every bite and will definitely be returning. Highly recommended! My favourite Indian locally

The Golden Ocean
21 West Street, 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!
