Reviews in Minehead

We had a takeway from Alcombe Tandoori last night - excellent quality, on time - the order was even correct - Perfect! Highly recommended! Good and innovative selection of dishes - well spiced.... Even the Korma tastes good! Booking recommended though - even on a weds night...

My first visit was when they were known as Hathaways. The Sunday lunch we had was excellent, just like home made. I have visited Cobblestones when ever I visit Minehead and the same excellent service is delivered each time. Very friendly. Can't resist the cream teas.

We were in Porlock for the wet summer of 2007 but it certainly wasn’t a wash out thanks to finding this little gem of a restaurant in Porlock High Street. Look through the window and you may think it looks slightly tired and dated but the food and service is anything but. We ate there four times and the food was excellent each time. The Chef, who is self taught, knows his stuff and sources food locally and it is fresh and seasonal. I had soft boiled quails eggs on toasted bruschetta as a starter and the eggs were soft and warm and perfectly cooked. The Venison I had for my main course was farmed and I was advised of this when I ordered. I was pleasantly surprised as in my view this made it tastier and far less tough than the wild version. The vegetables were seasonal and not imported from thousands of miles away and what they lacked in uniformity they more than made up for in taste - and anyway who needs every carrot to be the same size. My wife had a crayfish salad to start which she found sweet and plentiful, not the odd one hidden behind the lettuce leaf you find in some restaurants. For her main course she had wild sea bass, again perfectly cooked. I am not a sweet person myself but the cheese board did me fine, again it was lovely to see local cheese on the board which is what you should expect in the county that has cheddar in it’s midst. My wife on the other hand loves her puddings and she tried two, the warm chocolate cake with clotted cream won hands down apparently as she had this on the first, third and fourth occasions we went - I think she couldn’t wait to get passed the first two courses just to have her sweet! The chef has many of the sweets, including a key lime pie made by a local lady. The wine list is not extensive but there is a nice choice and it is definitely not over priced - I like the Chianti. We were the last to leave most nights and the chef had a chat and a drink but only after all his other customers had left - you could tell he had a passion for local produce and for what he was doing. I have only one problem with Piggy-in-the-Middle and that is that it’s in Somerset and I am in London. I have eaten at some of the so-called ‘best restaurants’ in London and whilst I have eaten as well I have never eaten better and certainly not at the price of this Restaurant. If you are in Somerset find Porlock and find Piggy-in-the-Middle you wont regret it.

We have holidayed and lived here in minehead for twenty five years and we always look forward to having lunch at Mr Micawbers, the food is excellent quality and value for money it is always a peaceful and relaxed experience, a little like stepping back in time, the proprietor and staff are always friendly and treat you in a genteel way, we love it.

One of the nicest restaurants in Somerset- food was beautifully presented and tasted authentic, lovely area outside under grape vines and atmospheric inside.

Hathaways is a charming cottage restaurant with wonderful atmosphere and excellent food. I recommend fish dishes with a bottle of lovely wine. The selection of wines is amazing. The presentation of food is really impressive! It is defintelly a place to visit in Dunster!

i have eaten here on a few occasions and have enjoyed it every time, the food is cooked perfectly and they have a very good selection to choose from and its very delicious, the prices reflect the quality and its the best indian restaurant around for miles, the staff are very friendly and the restaurant itself has a nice relaxing atmosphere, i'd recommend it to anyone.

Great location opposite the sea front, lovely well kept walled garden, ideal for kids, real ale and a large menu choice in the pub. Also additional upstairs al la carte restaurant - untried.

Fantastic, does not need any more wording just bloody fantastic

Absolutely delicious food! The Manager kindly organised a menu for a 40th party for 30 people. The food was fantastic, the service great (even though they had to put up with 7 young children running around!) and extremely good value! I would thoroughly recommend this restaurant to anyone!

The old harbour house restaurant was a pleasant and charming place in a idyllic location. The food was of an outstanding quality yet still at a modest price. The decor in the main dining rooms were exquisite which added to the overall feel to the restaurant.

As soon as you enter you feel very relaxed. Tino is the perfect host and the food is beautifully presented. In the summertime you can sit outside under the most incredible vine, and while away the evening under the starlit sky. Perfect!

If you love Thai then you'll love this little Thai restaurant in Dulverton. Lovely location. Great food and does take outs too.

Superb, worth the drive fantastic location, quality local produce

Excellent meal. Excellent service.

The best restaurant in Minehead, best food, best service, cost, less portions are much much bigger. Don? just take my word for it, try it for yourself.
