This pub has to be one if my favourite pubs to visit.
Tucked away on the hills of Mendip on the Wells Road , the Hunters Lodge Inn is a popular place with locals and visiting cavers.
It's one if those places that is stuck in time. There isn't even a card machine and cash is king.
The ales and beers available here are locally sourced but there is a limited choice. The food is super tasty and is home cooked. Did I mention how tasty the food was. Lol.
In short, this pub is stuck in time and should never change.
The landlord Roger is in his 80s and still runs a well oiled bar. I've not been there for over 3 yrs and he still remembered my name.
I would definitely recommend a visit here for a fix of nostalgia and a yummy pint to boot.
And if all that wasn't enough to tempt a visit, it's even got its own cave attached to the side of the pub and can be visited if you dare. Just ask Roger for the key.
Excellent country pub which feels like it's in the middle of nowhere. Simple country decor inside (it was a dark cold November evening when we visited, so didn't venture outside much, apart from the trip to the toilets). Real ales served on gravity, and a range of proper ciders are available. Food is hearty and wholesome, including some spectacularly strong cheese and onion rolls and warming macaroni cheese. Two rooms, the 'back room' was host to a number of local folk/Irish musicians on our visit, apparently a regular occurrence. Wished we had been able to stay longer.
Love this pub still the way pubs used to be.
Just remember to bring cash as they don’t do contactless.
I have been going there since I was a young lad and still able to go caving.
Roger is such a nice person so friendly and always pleased to see you.
The food is great and I can never go without having their old school faggots and peas in gravy with a gert slice of bread. Flipping awsome..! 👊😎👍
