Nice little spot for a light lunch. The soup and sandwich combo hit the spot, and the view from the window was lovely.

Mussels were fantastic, best in ages. Portion was generous, really well done. For the price, you get a lot of food. Solid value.

The roast beef sandwich was really tasty, the beef was tender and the bread fresh. Portion was generous with a nice side salad. Owners were lovely, made us feel welcome. A solid lunch spot.

Decent coffee, not too pricey. Grabbed a breakfast roll after parking at the wharf. The portion was just right for the price, actually. Good spot for a quick bite.

Stayed overnight, the room was clean and warm. The bed was super comfy, got a great night&#39;s sleep. It&#39;s basic, but honestly, for the price I paid, it had everything I needed. Can&#39;t complain.

Nice spot. The bathroom walls are covered in jokes, which was a fun touch.

Been here a few times. The small fish and chips is a decent portion, honestly fills me up. Good for the price you pay.

Been coming here for years, the Sunday roast is the real deal. The beef is always spot on, falls apart with a fork. They do a smaller portion if you ask, which is handy. Decent spot for a relaxed Sunday.

First time here and the menu really surprised me. That beetroot tartare with horseradish cream was a wild idea, but it totally worked. The new kitchen team knows what they&#39;re doing.

Lovely spot to bring the dog. The daily changing menu is a nice touch, but the portions felt a bit small for the price.

Popped in for a pre-dinner drink. The space is really nice, and the service was quick. The wine list had a decent selection of by-the-glass options, which is always a plus for me. Saw some great-looking plates going to other tables. Might come back for a proper meal sometime.

Popped in for a late lunch. The chips were spot on - crispy outside, fluffy inside. Coffee was a proper strong brew. Staff were friendly and quick. Prices felt fair for what you get.

Lovely family-run spot. The sea bass special was a pleasant surprise, and the owners are so friendly.

The pizza here is a real treat. That thin crust is spot on, crispy but still has a nice chew. They get creative with the toppings too. Had one with nduja and honey, worked a treat. It&#39;s popular, so you might queue a bit, but it&#39;s worth it.

The rustic decor is lovely, and they have a great selection of local wines by the glass. A very relaxed spot for a long lunch.

The food here is always solid, never disappoints. Had the grilled salmon again last night, cooked just right.

A lovely family-run place. The staff were so friendly even when they were run off their feet with the takeaway orders and the full dining room. Felt really looked after.

Lovely little family-run place. The set menu is good value and everything was presented so nicely. What I really appreciated was the host walking us to the door when we left &ndash; a very kind gesture.

The lamb chops were cooked just right, juicy and full of flavour. The mushroom dish was also a standout, really fresh and well-seasoned. Good selection for veggies too.

Got a walk-in table, which was lucky. The place was packed and buzzing, everyone seemed happy. Felt like being invited into someone&#39;s family home for the night. Really cosy.

The vegan fish and chips is a really nice dish. The banana blossom is a clever idea, and the booth seating was comfy.

Fish finger sandwich was fresh and the focaccia was light. Beachy decor makes for a relaxed lunch spot.

Great spot right on the harbour. The staff were lovely, and the wine list had a nice local option that went perfectly with the view.

A proper family-run place, the owners are so lovely. The pasta tasted just like my nonna used to make &ndash; you can really feel the care in it. That kind of homely vibe is rare these days.

The beef carvery was incredible, honestly. The owner and staff were so lovely and had a great sense of humour. They really went out of their way to make sure we were looked after.

Loved the mint tea here, so refreshing. The view over the square is a proper bonus. Owners were dead friendly. Food was spot on, though the portions were a tad small for the price.

Booked a private pod for our group and the dogs. The squid and beef sliders were really good, and ordering with the checklist was dead easy. Food came out as it was ready, which worked for us. A handy spot if you&#39;ve got the pup with you.

A solid choice in Dunster. The chef greeting tables is a nice personal touch. Food was well-executed, particularly the lamb. Service was efficient. Good for a reliable business dinner. Slightly on the pricier side for the area, but you get what you pay for.
