Fat Radish

During our stopover on our way home from Cornwall, we found the Fat Radish in Frome and it is a gem. We’re gluten free vegans and although the Fat Radish is neither vegan, nor gluten free, it has a definite emphasis on working on both on the menu. Highly recommended, with amazing staff and delicious food. We’re defo coming back!

Very popular, the Fat Radish was fully booked when I visited, but managed to fit me in at the bar, and other visitors into a late sitting. They have a great selection of cocktails, and a food menu that is a little different from the everyday and very tasty. Great, friendly service from a team that obviously also get on well.

I’ve eaten here twice, the first time a burger which was delicious, the second time a fish dish on a Sunday lunch time which was good but not great. The service was friendly both times, a little slow for the Sunday lunch but it was pretty busy. Definitely will go again and I’m hopeful that the food and service will be great so I can change this to a 5* review 😊

A premier eatery in what is fast becoming a foodie nirvana. Frome has quite a few good places to eat, a handful of great places to eat and a small splattering of truly exceptional places to eat. The Fat Radish most definitely falls into the latter category. I went for the full three courses but did allow my partner to 'share' the dessert of ginger sticky toffee pud. Great service and superb selection for veggies and carnies alike.

A very lively place, special cocktails, very friendly staff, a good mixture of old and young visitors. Portions were a good size, I had the humous with olives and toasted bread for starters which was very good, followed by lamb with a aubergine purée which was very tasty, the lamb was pink as ordered and plentyful. I also ordered a side salad with lemon oil dressing which was good. For dessert I had the chocolate parfait with 'macerated' berries (a bit of an unfortunate word as I have a macerator at home) , the parfait was not to my taste, it was very salty and far too rich. Prices are too expensive for what you get. Actually quite overpriced. Would I go again, I liked it but probably not. We sat downstairs where the constant opening of the door made it crafty and slightly uncomfortable, also too many seats and tables squeezed in so you could not really have a private conversation. Lots of coming and going all the time.

I absolutely adored my time at the Fat Radish. They have something for everyone - vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, etc. It's all absolutely delicious, fresh, and filling. We had the hummus and some roasted beets to start (which were glorious), then we each had a different burger, all top notch. With barely enough room to breathe we shared a slice of vegan chocolate cake. The staff we're super friendly and helpful. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hearty meal to share with friends and family, especially if you need to accommodate different diets.
