Wiveliscombe

About the restaurant

Tim Zekki was born and raised in Cyprus but has lived and worked in the UK for 35 years. He has a passion for local and seasonal ingredients, sourcing sustainable produce and items that he forages in Somerset woodlands and along the coast.

Tim’s menus reflect his travels worldwide and the food he loves. ‘My passion,’ he says, ‘is to combine simple ingredients - with some elaborate sauces - and my aim being nothing more than to delight the palate.’ In addition to the à la carte selection of sharing dishes, Tim offers a set, fixed-price multi-course menu once a month.
.

Local produce includes lamb and beef from Wonky Horn just outside Wiveliscombe, from the town’s local butchers, Thorne’s, and vegetables and salad sourced from nearby Wagtail Farm and Ray’s Veg at Halse.

Tapas / Small Plates

Taunton

About the restaurant

Serving delicious World Tapas for lunch and dinner, but also Bistro classics at dinner time. Extensive well priced wine selection, organic, without added sulphites, quirky wines but not only.
In the summer, probably one the best, if not the best restaurant terrace to sit on in Taunton.
Dogs are welcome.

Bath

About the restaurant

From our hand painted murals to the cosy fireplace, we have left no detail unturned in making sure our guests feel at home in Colosseo.

Your dish will not only be visually stunning, but will taste authentically Italian so you get the feeling of sitting in a restaurant on the cobbled streets of Rome. Choose from an array of dishes from pizzas to pastas and the finest cuts of meat to beautifully rich and decadent desserts.

Located in the heart of Bath, we are just a short walk away from some of Bath's most iconic attractions, like the famous Roman Bath Spas and the Theatre Royal.

When you enter Colosseo, our attentive staff is waiting to ensure every moment at your table is filled with delightful flavours, laughter, and the warmth of Italian hospitality. Whether it's a special celebration, a romantic dinner, or a casual gathering with friends, Colosseo is more than just a meal – it's a journey to the essence of Italian culture.

About the restaurant

Steeped in history, The Lion dates back about 500 years, and was built when King Charles I was on the British throne and even before the famous Gunpowder Plot of 1605. Originally constructed as a house, for centuries the quirky building has been welcoming visitors as a traditional British pub. With its low ceilings, exposed beams and homely inglenook fireplaces, it has all the charm of what you expect from a historic pub and restaurant. Listed as one of the Britain’s most important buildings, this is a slice of history set right in the heart of the Somerset countryside in a popular English village. The characterful and homely rooms offer a comfortable stay for those wanting to holiday or spend a night or two in this stunning part of the UK.

We’re also dog lovers, so your well behaved pooches will get a warm welcome.

Yeovil

About the restaurant

AA Accredited - COVID-19 Confident
We are not a ‘fancy pants’ establishment. Not in the least. We offer good quality, home-cooked, locally sourced (where possible) food. 90% of our menu is made on the premises. Certainly not ‘Pub Grub’ but not ‘Gastro Pub’ either. It’s good value for money. However, our standards are high, very high. Not only in the quality of the food that comes into and leaves the kitchen but also in the presentation, the delivery to the table and overall customer service. We’re definitely not ‘Silver Service’ either but all of our staff are attentive, smartly dressed and will always go that extra mile wherever they can. These are just some of the reasons we were awarded the Taste of the West GOLD award in 2019.
We are a dog friendly establishment, very dog friendly. However, please tell us at the time of booking so that we can place you in our Bar area , as opposed to our Restaurant.

Weston-Super-Mare

About the restaurant

As a proudly independent, family-run restaurant, we bring together over 50 years of expertise and the very freshest ingredients around to create a first-rate, affordable dining experience in Weston-super-Mare.

Our menus are refreshingly honest, simple and uncomplicated; we serve brilliant steaks and top-notch seafood and our daily specials are second-to-none. We’ve got a great selection of wines and our bar is stocked with locally-sourced ales, continental beers and small batch spirits. There's a great cocktail list too!

The restaurant itself offers the perfect mix of old and new… original features, period charm and the only remaining thatched roof in Weston-super-Mare, combined with a laid-back atmosphere and a really-very-cool, beach-facing terrace area complete with glowing fire pits.

A discretionary 10% service charge will be added for parties of 10 or more guests.

We booked a table outside today, in late December (!) for Sunday lunch. No problem thanks to the nice cosy firepit table - others asked us if the firepit was just for show or really effective, we were able to reassure them that it was really effective,.and made the whole experience enjoyable and memorable - that seemed to work as all firepit tables were taken by the time we left! Food delicious as always, service excellent, a great experience today.
