We’ve scoured Somerset high and low for the best Sunday roasts around. Whether you’re looking for the best Sunday roast in north Somerset or a good Sunday lunch near Taunton, one of these top places to eat should float your boat.
A Sunday carvery is one of those home comforts we can’t do without. There’s nothing tastier than a roast dinner cooked by someone else. Whether you’re in Somerset for a short break or a week or two, you’ll more than likely have a Sunday afternoon where you need some tasty grub to fill up on and nothing will do but an all-day carvery.
Find somewhere with excellent craft beers and traditional Somerset cider and you’ll be on to a winner. Good local food and drink never tasted so good than at one of these pubs in Somerset.
The Sheppey Inn, near Glastonbury
Out in the Somerset Levels, this eclectic pub has art all over the walls and an incredible selection of craft beers and cider. Add into this the tasty Sunday roasts and you probably won’t want to leave for the entire day. Bird watchers might like to stretch their legs to the nearby Avalon Marshes but, ultimately, we know you’ll probably have to prise yourself away from this place at the end of your Sunday.
The Mendip Inn, Oakhill
Right on the A37, this pub has recently been renovated by the same people who did Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen so expect lush interiors. The food matches the smart, heritage style in the form of Mendip trio of lamb wellington, roast pork, roast beef and beef brisket. An easy spot to get to with a tasty selection of traditional Sunday roast dinners.
The Bicknoller Inn, Bicknoller
The Bic rests to the west of the Quantock hills and welcomes you under its thatched roof with flagstone floors and a toasty wood burner roaring away. Perfect for a winter jaunt in Somerset. Good news if you’re staying in one of our dog friendly cottages, the Bicknoller welcomes in your four-legged friends. Roast dinner options are seasonal and include a choice between two meats plus plenty of veg and roasties. Booking is advised as it can get quite busy.
The Redan Inn, Chilcompton
More of a restaurant than a pub, the Redan is incredibly chic while remaining traditional and family-friendly. You can guarantee a good meal here; sister pub to the award-winner Pumphouse in Bristol and The Bird in Hand in Long Ashton. And it’s starting to win rosettes of its own too. Take your pick from roast beef, pork, chicken or nut for your Sunday roast and open up a board game for the afternoon.
Lord Paulett Arms, Hinton St George
From the traditional interiors to the seasonal menu, the Lord Paulett Arms is the definition of comfort - the perfect atmosphere for a Sunday roast. The locally sourced menu features the likes of rare roasted beef, Castlemead chicken, and sumptuous veggie roasts, all topped with roast potatoes, seasonal veg, cauliflower cheese, and gravy.
