Reviews in Bristol and Somerset

Excellent food and wine. We all had a great time.

The staff were kind enough but the service was very slow. The food was average but expected better from this restaurant especially for the price! To have 1 very small unisex toilet seems poor. Thought the atmosphere was again ok but only ok. The pictures make the restaurant look far better which raised my expectations only to have an average experience. Just a little disapointed.

We had a lovely meal on Saturday night at The Olive Tree. There was a lovely atmosphere in the restaurant, the serving staff were excellent. There is not a lot of choice on the menu, especially for those preferring meat as it was biased towards fish/veggie options - but that suited me. My trout starter and hake main course were both excellent quality. It's not cheap, but you get what you pay for, and for special occasions it is a treat.

We were just intending to have the lunch time two course special, but after two delicious courses we had to try the deserts which were also great. We will definitely be returning to the Green Olive.

We had a delightful lunch on Saturday - everything was delicious the service was excellent, and we felt that the 2-course lunch offer was excellent value for money. A great addition to the Wells food scene!

2nd time. Food was fantastic again. Wine was lovely. Nice vibe. What’s not to like. Make sure you have the banana fritters they are delicious!

Really good atmosphere and the Hot shellfish platter was better than the same meal in Brittany. Staff efficient and friendly. Well done

This was a truly exceptional meal. Great produce perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. Don’t miss the delicious desserts too. This is really fine dining at a very reasonable price. And front of house is very friendly and efficient. No reservations in giving the Olive Tree absolutely top marks. Don’t miss it.

Booked lunch through easy to follow website. Seating really comfortable. As before my wife and I found food excellent, especially the sea bass fillet. Crumble however was found to be too sweet for us. Staff always helpful and cheerful. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Absolutely fabulous!!! what a find, if you want to try the best food ever created book a table at Goodfellows at 7B, a lovely intimate setting,the best food I have ever tasted and waiting staff that make you feel so welcome, we are several hours away but we will be returning to Wells just so we can visit this gem of a restaurant again, truly amazing.

Lovely food, good service and a great ambience. my trout starter was excellent.

Cracking meal over the road as usual, beautifully prepared seafood and a lovely vibe as ever. Thanks Adam and Martine.

6 of us had a fantastic meal at the Olive Tree . From the moment we walked in the atmosphere and smells of delicious food hit us . The family who own and run the restaurant were so friendly and helpful they give the restaurant its ambiance. We will definitely be back and recommend to all as the food was amazing .

Had a spontaneous need to go for a lovely meal. As ever had the most delicious food. Gazpacho, scallops and poached pears. Just divinely delicious. Always a warm welcome and wonderful service. Thank you for the best food ever.

Excellent food and service. Highly recommended.

Nice venue. Good lunch with 2 course deal. Ordered salad which was disappointing.

Visited Wells with family to celebrate a 60th Birthday, and booked a table at The Olive Tree based on reviews and photos. Very positive experience from the moment we arrived, through the quality of menu and meals, and the reasonably priced wines. We would certainly come again if we are in the area. Excellent evening!

The food was excellent, the loos were spotless and the service was great. Not cheap but value for money.
