Last minute decision to go out decided to try the Alhampton Inn we went with our dog and it was great! Beer was good The Independance IPA is recommended as is the Cider. Food was quick well cooked and without full. A great pub to visit to relax in. We'll be back!

Much improved since my last visit 3 years ago. Large covered area at front of pub has created a better atmosphere. 2 good real ales. Worth a visit!

Found myself standing outside wondering how on earth I get into the place? Not very clear, found a door and hoped for the best. Very friendly staff and we were welcomed as soon as we walked in. Food was lovely and a good selection of veg. We had the carvery which is plated up rather than you going up to get it and choosing you own.
Great selection of puddings and all very appetising.
Word to the wise though:- when you pay your bill you will see on there they charge you optional gratuity(tip) @10%, there is nothing optional about it. First thing you know about it is when you check your bill. Would be nice to be told about it.

Visited on a Tuesday evening. Lovely atmosphere and gorgeous pizzas there by independent pizza stall called The Pizza Rocket, run by Phil Willis. Impressive and delicious 😋

We came to this pub off the cuff. We had all the starters and desserts as we weren't that hungry. All the food was of a very high standard and the staff were lovely and very friendly. We will definitely come back. The Butcombe Ale was exceptional.

Stumbled across this place while attending a local bike rally, made very welcome and all seven of us were well impressed by the food. Highly recommend a visit.

We are away for the weekend in Castle Cary having a bit of a break from city life and sucking in as much of that lovely fresh air as possible!! 🏞
We were recommended the Alhampton Inn and booked in for lunch earlier today. The pub itself is an absolute beaut, recently expanded during Covid and it’s looking fantastic for it!! The two gents we met running the place were brilliant - friendly, informative and just genuinely good people, they really made you feel welcome!
Then the food… absolutely banging!! Everything we had was delicious, with that Haddock Smokey stealing the show - when was a pot of cheesy fish with crumble on top not gonna be amazing!! 😍😍
Our fave things: It’s a toss up between the great service and that banging Smokey!! 🐟

Visited on Friday 11th as a group of four. Very welcoming atmosphere and staff with a nice fire. Good bar service including choice of gins and great condition Butcombe Rare Breed. Starters and mains all looked delicious and we struggled to choose between them. Smoky starter was amazing and others had prawns, scallops and squid, all reportedly delicious. Moroccan lamb main was fabulous, others going for a burger abs the steak and blue cheese. Service was great and slight wait for starters was well managed and understandable for freshly cooked, excellent food. We will return!
