The Old Bakehouse - Speisekarte

This is the part where visitors can enjoy a more formal, sit-down dining experience. Sourced from the same kitchens as the Brewers Arms the food is excellent and is an excellent choice if you have longer to savour the food. Strongly recommended.

We have had the pleasure of eating here on many occasions. Nick and her staff are great, very friendly and obliging. The menu is varied, there are always specials available and food is hot and very tasty. We have never had a dissapointing meal here and always look forward to the next visit.

The Old Bakehouse is attached to The Brewers Arms in South Petherton. You will receive a warm welcome, the menus are wide and varied and the cooking excellent. All choices are very reasonably priced. The ambience and atmosphere is cosy and homely; children are welcomed and there is an enclosed garden room for parties. The staff are very friendly and will cater for most requirements. There are 'Themed ' evenings steak, fish and chips, curries etc. but the full menu is still available. Booking is probably not essential but advisable.The Brewers Arms won the Somerset CAMRA pub of the season, autumn 2012.

We had planned just to have a bar snack but at 6pm the bar was already full as there was football on. We were therefore offered a table in the restaurant. This is simple but nicely decorated and set out, very warm with a fire and very comfy. The menu has a good range of choices and there are also specials. Prices are reasonable. We only had a main each as we were short of time as we were going to a concert in the local David Hall but starts and desserts both looked tempting. There was a good range of local beers on offer too. We couldn't fault either the food or the charming service from both the waitresses.

We had soup and a main soup was lovely taste and hot. The main menu had quite a choice and there was also a specials board so there was something to suit all. It is a large place but we were sitting next to the coffee machine which had broken so they were trying to fix it all the time we were eating the noise of the grinders (for two hours!! was wearing. We should have said something really our fault for not doing so but they needed to get it fixed for the following day as they had a large funeral party to cater for and that had to take precedence. Other than that it was fine. Prices were reasonable, it was clean and staff were friendly

I've lived in the village now for nearly a year and right from our very first trip to the pub we were absolutely shocked by the rudeness of one particular member of staff. The others aren't much better they clearly all hate their jobs, and can't wait to get people out as fast as possible. The food is mediocre at best, and it's so desperately sad that the only pub in this lovely village is tainted by this rudeness. I have never in all my years (most of them spent in rough parts of large towns) encountered such utter bad service and rudeness in a customer service role. We relented and attempted to give them one final chance this week, and they were ruder than ever before. It genuinely feels li...

Having read some bad reviews about The Old Bakehouse, it was with some trepidation that we decided to eat here, on the first night of our 4 night stay in the villiage. The plan was to eat here for the first night, and then go elsewhere, once we'd had a chance to look around.HOWEVER, the food and service were SOOOO good here, that we chose to eat here every night of our stay. Each night we had something different, and each night we weren't disappointed. The food was excellent, Tues/Weds nights are Surf and Turf nights, with 2 steaks, or 2 fish and chips, or 1 of each plus a bottle of wine, all for £22.50. Thurs was Curry night, and Friday Fish night, but the normal menu was also available eve...

Visited this restaurant for a Sunday lunch. It felt as though the staff were in a hurry to serve us and get us out again as quickly as possible. The Sunday menu was reeled off to us verbally and within a couple of minutes we were asked if we were ready to order. I had to ask for the normal bar menu as I have eaten here in the past and knew that it was possible to choose from this menu in addition to the sunday lunch choices. However, we opted for a sunday roast. The food appeared within 5 minutes, far too quickly I thought. The vegetables were nicely cooked but the meat was somewhat tough to cut, the roast potatoes pale in colour and the Yorkshire pudding a little soggy. I have eaten here in...

Centrally located in the very pleasant village of South Petherton, this restaurant is fairly local to us. We have eaten here a few times and, except for one occasion, have found it excellent in terms of value, food and service. Under shared ownership with the Brewers Arms pub next door, the menu offered is extensive with a specials board every night and special meal deals on certain days. A reasonably priced wine list and a good selection of real ales are also available. The restaurant is nicely decorated and the ambiance is good. The only occasion when we were not satisfied was when there was a large party of guests dining, I think this may have overwhelmed the kitchen and the staff, the re...
