Reviews in Bristol and Somerset

As always an exceptional experience with exceptional food. We had a celebratory lunch and each time we come to this restaurant, Gorden always brings something more to the party! Everything we ate was cleverly thought out, constructed and cooked to perfection. The attention to all the details including the wine flight ensures a truly memorable occasion

Our second visit to the Olive. We didn't think the food could be better than it was on our first visit, but we were wrong. It was sublime! If I had not been in public, I would have licked my plate! Can't think of a single thing I would fault. Very friendly staff. Can't wait to go again.

Absolutely love this place it’s definitely one of our favourites , we love the setting the food is always so delicious and faultless . The service is excellent love that there is always something different on the menu, highly recommend it . We will definitely be returning regularly.xx

This place just gets better and better. Beautiful relaxed ambience, and the tastiest food ever, its a real treat. Thoroughly recommended.

Lovely food and atmosphere, staff very helpful and friendly

I went to GJ's last night with the girls for our Christmas treat. It was a perfect evening. Amazing service - really amazing service actually - and the food was so good and really interesting - absolutely delicious!! Each course was explained to us - the cocktails were great too. Have been before and it was equally as good the first time. Plus we were dorky and asked Gordon to sign the menu for us - which he was so happy to do. We had a great night thank you and we will be back.

My first visit, but definitely not my last. Delicious food, pleasant staff and a warm, roaring fire.

My friend and I had lunch here on a very busy Saturday, the staff were friendly and very welcoming, the food was delicious and beautifully presented. We will certainly be returning .

Four of us visited for lunch. Once again, fabulous service and fabulous food.

A lovely Christmas menu meal at the Olive Tree last week. Tasty food, well presented. We enjoyed our meal and drinks and would happily return in future

Had a great evening lovely ambience and really friendly staff and owners

There is nowhere on earth we'd rather eat! We have been coming to Goodfellows for many years and it has never been less than wonderful. Shout out for the excellent sommelier, as well.

My partner and I had lovely time at the Olive tree . Louise was amazing and made me feel at ease with choosing GF options at lunchtime ,so much so ,we returned for dinner . Also a bug shout out to Jack , who was polite ,chatty and friendly . When we visit Wells again we will come back to this place . Lovely. Experience . .

Had lunch on the Saturday of the Wells Xmas Market. So very busy. However we (Table of 4) were very well looked after both in conversation and food presentation. Would strongly recommend !!

4 scallops as a main course? Enjoyed by three of us but we agree 6 should be the minimum, 7 fine and 8 scallops good. Overall enjoyed by all. A lovely space, very good cooking and excellent service.

Fabulous decor, friendly staff and gorgeous food.

The food was excellent best sea bass we have ever had. Service was very attentive. Good value for money on fixed christmas evening menu which they were kind enough to let us have at lunch time. Will be back very soon.

Fantastic food, relaxing atmosphere with a fire to keep you cosy. Although busy wasn’t loud so could keep conversation flowing. Staff helpful and attentive. Our favourite place to eat.
