Me and my family came here and each had a three course meal and all of the food was superb! The staff were very helpful and friendly and we had a lovely time. Could not recommend the Monkton Inn highly enough!
We celebrated our son's christening here today! They provided the most amazing buffet! Everyone absolutely loved it! Lovely atmosphere and the kids really enjoyed the outside space. Would highly recommend
Absolutely superb, lovely beer garden, friendly staff, great food and wine 😀.
We had a meal at The Monkton Inn on Saturday and I can honestly say it was the best steak I have eaten in a very long time. My husband is quite a fussy eater and he thoroughly enjoyed the curry too. Next time we are in the area we will definitely be back
We spent Saturday afternoon at Monkton inn as part of our Hen do. Val and Peter where great hosts and made sure we were all happy. We were lucky enough to have sunshine so spent the afternoon in the wonderful garden. The food was amazing, we will deffo be going back hoping to make it an annual trip!!!!
Amazing food � best steak I've ever had & the home made chips are delicious x
Britstopped over here last night...received a warm welcome from such freindly staff....the food was amazing...well impressed buy the zebra and all the food...the staff bent over backwards to ensure we had an enjoyable evening...would definitly visit here again...thanks for a great evening.
Great food and friendly service. Dog friendly too.
Stumbled across this little gem, the owners we so friendly and food was amazing, if you are anywhere near you must go !!!!!
Food is incredible, the best pub grub we've had! Staff were all lovely and location is gorgeous 10 out of 10! Will be recommending.
Beautiful food and some tasty gins.
Had a lovely lunch there today with Darryl and Mum. The menu is excellent with a wide choice. Mum had the salad and it looked and tasted fab! Myself and Darryl went for different South African specials and they were delicious! Go there and try the specials.... A fresh change from normal Pub Grub! Well done!
Had a couple of bowls of chips with our drinks last night in the evening sunshine, so peaceful and probably the best chips I have ever had :)
Very friendly staff and fantastic food!!!
The 10 pound burger and beer/wine on a Wednesday night was excellent value.
Peter the host runs a great establishment with some good beer, great atmosphere and lovely staff. The place which is in the middle of nowhere was packed and certainly celebrates the wonderful South African heritage of it's owner.
We will be back.....
Formerly known as the Monkton Inn, I recently visited this establishment hidden away in a village just outside Somerset's County Town.
In its previous incarnation I'd have rated this as 3* - middle of the road - but with the change of management I found both the food selection and service to be significantly improved. The menu has frequent guest appearances from South African viands like Wildebeest and Sprinbok, as a consquence of the chef's homeland.
Well worth a visit if in the area.
Some of the nicest steaks I have ever had. A really good pub for people who love their food. Lovely reception from staff on arrival and super service.
The Monkton Inn is a great place to eat, offering value for money and quality, which is not often found together!
The food is fantastic with them using fresh, local ingredients.
The chalk board has plenty of starters and main courses with a good range of choice.
The service is friendly and super efficient Oh, and the puddings are so totaly to die for!
yum yum yum
We had lovely weather so sat outside.
We had zebra & crocodile steak. Both with lovely sauce and some veggies. Wish there was bit of more chips though.
But the flavours were nice of both dishes.
And then delish brownie and cheescake.
Would defo recommend.
Went for Saturday evening food, didn't book, managed to get a table, sat outside as a nice warm evening. Had the south Africa taster menu, was good to try something new. Asked for a blanket when the sun went down, as they have a sign saying to ask - good idea.
Pretty busy. It's local to me, not been before, would go again... I can Recommend this pub.
Food was great, small but good wine selection however the service is were the review lost a star.
Might need more training as could not answer the questions about the food and we needed to ask to the member of staff to go to the kitchen and ask.
Portions were nice and big would definitely go back a must try is the Trinchada!
We stopped here on a Britstop Friday evening we arrived at about 8:45pm on our way to Cornwall from oxford and although the kitchen closed at 9pm they still managed to give us a lovely meal to fill us up and we had a couple of drinks in the bar afterwards with some of the locals in a really nice atmosphere. We will definitely be back…. Probably on the way home.
Friendly welcome on arrival, we were seated quickly to our booked table. Staff were very polite and accommodating. The veggie burger was delicious!
Been here several times, the food is amazing best Italian I have been to.
Lovely pub, great food, perfect setting, fantastic beer garden for those nice summer days and you always feel welcome. Plus there's a bar cat too!!
We had a lovely walk along the canal and across the fields with our friends and dogs and stopped here for Sunday lunch. Cannot fault the service, staff or food, they were all top notch, we cannot wait to return to try the South Africa taster menu .🐾🐾🐾🐾
