The Portman Arms, East Chinnock

Oh dear, called in here for lunch. Plenty of nice signs outside including one which said "a warm welcome and atmosphere"

Well there was no warm welcome, just a grumpy very scruffy barmaid who looked like she'd just got up!
No atmosphere, it was dark and chilly.

We had a meal, but it was just average, the ham was obviously the last and they'd just shoved a lump of it on the plate.
Can't see this lasting.

The Bell, Yeovil

I love the bell. Food is very good and very reasonably priced. The staff are great and helpful. Wine is always at the right temp and the beer also.
The whole place has a really nice atmosphere and I love the way it is divided up into several different areas.
Its so much better that the Airfield Tavern, Both in food quality and price.

The Rose and Crown, Taunton

We like to pop in here for their thurs night steak nights. However last thurs I phoned the pub to make sure they were still doing the offer ( as there was nothing on the board outside) The landlord said yes, they were still doing them, and no, we didnt need to book a table.

On turning up there he off handedly said the price had gone up. No mention of this on the phone. There were also other people turning up and he was telling them the same, even tho as one pointed ouy, in the local paper it was still advertised at the old price.

An increase of 25% is poor, considering the wine offered is only a fiver in the local shop. Won't bother going again as beer is pricey but not good :-(

The Devonshire Arms, Beeley

Lovely village but pub very over priced!

Food is not good value for money, we paid �6.50 each for a dry beef roll ( not much beef) and a few soggy chips.
No garden, although it does have a few tables outside.

Good beer, wide variety but again very expensive. Very popular pub for visitors, not so great for the locals.
