We just stayed here as I had a 3 day course near by. We very much enjoyed our stay. The staff and couple who ran the place were super friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. I was really impressed with the perfectly cooked and tasteful english breakfast that I had 3 times, whilst my partner loved the Turkish breakfast! We ate dinner here on two of the nights and they were both great. Loved the room. 100% recommend. If in the area again will definitely stay again
We came just for lunch which was delicious, particularly the venison faggots! The atmosphere and service were really pleasant and friendly and we shall certainly be back. Difficult to find on a first visit because of housing estate construction nearby but well worth the minor aggro.
Large clean room, very large comfortable bed, excellent parking food is good staff very helpful especially Kevin and Chelsea on our stay. Nothing was to much trouble. Only problem full English breakfast not to our taste bacon fatty, sausage spicy, toast like a surf board. There are plenty of other choices wich are very good. We had. 10 for Sunday lunch and it all went very well. Would recommend.
We had a lovely stay at The Bower Inn as we stopped off on our journey north from Cornwall. The location is great being not far from the M5 but it still feels quite rural with our room overlooking green fields. The food was great as was the service, all the staff were really friendly and made a fuss of our dog who loved the attention! Would recommend to anyone, particularly if you are looking for a dog friendly stay.
After having a poor experience at a different Butcombe pub recently, The Bower Inn was a pleasant surprise. Food was great, service was excellent and both Chelsea and Dan were extremely helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Very dog-friendly too, which was a bonus. The atmosphere and the food and drink were the perfect end to a good day. Highly recommended
Excellent light lunch. Lovely combination smoked haddock fishcakes, mango curry sauce, saga loo and poached egg. Beautiful flavours! Adore the biscoffi donuts with coffee too! Service excellent. Relaxed atmosphere and quirky place. Lovely experience.
Stayed for 4 nights. Our son lives in Bridgwater and this was a spur of the moment visit so our choice of rooms was limited. Apart from it being up some steep stairs we were pleased with it. (Both in our late 70s)
The breakfasts were very nice. Only negative was bread. I would’ve liked a choice of wholemeal bread but was told there was only sourdough.
The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
We will probably stay again on our next visit but book earlier for a ground floor room.
Came for lunch with my dad and son for my dads birthday. From the minute we walked in, staff were amazing. Food was honestly 10/10, couldn’t fault anything. Will definitely be returning! Thank you
We brought a large birthday party of 20 for Sunday lunch, booking the garden room to accommodate us all. We had preordered our meals, but had some confusing last-minute cancellations and additions to complicate matters.
In spite of this, the staff were absolutely excellent. The duty manager was smiley and cheerful, and nothing was too much trouble. The food was lovely (I recommend the cauliflower cheese in particular) and the beer was great.
Thanks to all the Bower Inn staff for making our family party such a great one!
I booked a table at the restaurant. The booking system itself was easy to navigate and use. Upon arriving the staff were very friendly and approachable. The restaurant has a lovely warm country feel and vibe. The food was amazing and I do plan on returning again but only if my amazing, sophisticated and extremely stunning tinder date agrees.
