The London Inn - West Somerset

Fresh tasting fish great whitebait. Big sea and harbour view from upstairs dining room. Better than average value. It is a locals place and not overly chic looking but don’t be put off. Perfectly good and friendly service.

Wouldn’t recommend eating here especially if you are not a local. Due to not being from the area, was made to feel unwelcome from the start. You may aswell go into the kitchen and cook your own meal because they’re not willing to wait on people or at least the bar lady isn’t. However, the young boy who brought our meals was lovely and provided us with cutlery and sauces after realising we wasn’t given any and raised it with the bar lady to which the bar lady said “I told them to help themselves, it’s not my fault they didn’t bother!” We were never actually told to help ourselves to anything. For £32 for a bit of fish and chips, I don’t think we were asking for a lot to be given a knife and fork. Very overpriced for what it was, also no atmosphere in the place and we couldn’t wait to leave. Such a shame as travelled 2 hours to Watchet which appears to be a lovely place but this place just lets it all down unfortunately.

Terrible experience. Traveled all the way from south wales for my 2 year old sons first little holiday of the year. Atmosphere was terrible. We were greeted by numerous unfriendly locals who made us unwelcome as we “didn’t live in the town”. Sat down to order food my two year old son sat quietly playing with his animals and got told to “shut up” for playing with his animals on the table. And that it was a pub for “adult company” even though the board outside says “children welcome”. Very upsetting as was totally uncalled for and he was actually very well behaved for a two year old didnt even speak while we was there. Unless you just want to sit on your own and have a quiet pint with zero atmosphere and feel completely unwelcome and then get rude remarks for making any little noise would definitely not recommend going here.

Food was was average at best. Restaurant is basic with no atmosphere. Good sea view from 2 tables if you manage to get one. Probably a nice place for a pint but would not eat there again.

We stumbled upon The Bell while out for the day. The food and service were excellent and the prices were reasonable. We will definitely come back when we are in the area again. We highly recommend trying the Sausage Egg Chips and Chicken Salad. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
