Food not good. Oily breakfast, bread not good. Toast was dry ends of a loaf. Over priced. Sadly not a patch on how it used to be a couple of years ago.

Such a beautiful setting let down by the service and food. After waiting over 30 minutes for our food the table who ordered a while after us were served. We were just about to give up and leave when ours arrived. Toast, which arrived cold, and jam came with no butter, so we had to go in and find someone to ask. It arrived so hard my husband was unable to spread it. The menu says sourdough so expected some lovely hand cut bread but sadly just a couple of small slices of sliced bread. The pancakes were also cold so had to go in and ask for them to be changed too. This took another 10 minutes and when they finally arrived they were lukewarm, with just a few slices of banana, so very expensive at £9.50 considering the quality and quantity. I’m sure we will visit Symondsbury again but definitely not the café.

Good food and range of drinks. We did notice an increase in price/slight reduction is "plate size" compered to pre-pandemic visits. But we will definately continue to visit.

Staff initially ignored us but very nice once they engaged with us. My lamb was a bit gristley but meal was good otherwise. Door to outside repeatedly slammmed shut - rather annoying! not sure we would come again.

Food was not as described. Two portions of savoury tart were served with lettuce rather than chargrilled vegetables and the tarts themselves had been microwaved. Service was slow: 20 minutes to take an order and we were ignored for long periods and never offered dessert. Very disappointing as we have had better experiences here in the past.
