I think I have the same playlist on Spotify. The absolute game changer though was the FISH & CHIPS. OMG.. I didn't realize how effin delicious this could be without being too greasy! . The haddock was perfect. The chips were perfect. The mushy peas were perfect. This has been, so far, the BEST fish & chips is all of the UK. And I love F&Cs.. and I'm A foodie.. so that's saying a lot. I think the only possible thing that can compete with TSS F&Cs are the Scottish Cod Fish & Chips at this same restaurant. And yeeeesssss, we will be back!

The Scallop Shell had my FAVORITE Fish N Chips while we were in England! This place was not on our…read moreitinerary to visit, but I am SO glad we came here. We got there a few hours before closing time and couldn't get a table right away - we were told to come back in an hour but we asked if it would still be possible to get their fish & chips. They asked how many of us would want it and all 5 of us did. Ha! Luckily, they were able to hold enough for us to come back once a table was open. The fish was perfectly crispy on the outside. The chips were tasty and the mushy peas were actually good which I wasn't expecting! I'd travel all the way back to England just for this meal at the Scallop Shell.

The chips are quite nice. The fish on the other hand is very greasy and over battered…read more If you scrape off more than half the batter then the fish is edible. I have tried it 4 times now and its been the same each time. there will not be a 5th unless it's just chips.. They don't take payment by card either which is unhelpful in this day and age.

We visited Blue Ocean to put in an order for 20 of our family members. I called ahead and while…read moreEnglish wasn't their first language they clearly took our order, and correctly cooked up all our food. They were even helpful enough to give us a whole thing of vinegar since it was complicated to know who wanted salt and vinegar, just salt, just vinegar and so on! While we don't visit Taunton very often, there's a reason this place has a line out of the door on Tuesday lunchtimes! Very friendly, attentive, and many of our family having the fish especially said it was the best fish, they've ever had from a fish and chip shop! Very impressive report from some highly critical members who know their fish and chip shops well. Definitely recommended if you are in the area!

The Bell & Crown is a historic pub in the little village of Zeals. It has an expansive interior,…read morealthough the walls are painted a very dark colour which makes the main bar area feel a little claustrophobic. (Yes, as another review states, candles in the middle of the day are a feature). Fortunately there is a another eating area which is brighter, and a large covered eating area outside, if atmospheric gloom isn't your thing. The menu is a notch or three above average pub food; my friend had calves' liver with spring greens and mash, and I had a vegetarian sourdough pizza with a side salad of rocker with dressed shallots and grated pecorino cheese. Both were really excellent - my pizza had a deep umami flavour and is one of the best I've eaten. That said, you pay accordingly: the two mains, side salad, with a beer and water, and 12.5% service, came to just shy of £58. Service was very attentive, if rather serious. By the time we left the place was packed with families and couples. So, a good choice for a special meal, but it might be bit too restaurant-priced for some.

On the way back we drove through Zeals. There it was, on the left along the A303. It looked charming like so many English pubs do. We went in and took a long look at the menu. Five minutes later, we were back on the road...with reservations for two at 6:45 pm. There is plenty of outdoor seating but we chose to be indoors. We were met by a very welcoming staff. Everyone was so friendly. Our server, Josh, had seated us by the window in minutes. He was very helpful and attentive throughout our dinner. The wine list was varied. There were several beers on tap. My wife chose the liver, cabbage and mashed potatoes. She loved it. I selected the Roast Duck with kale, mashies, sautéed onions and cavalo nero. I thought it was terrific. The decor was an interesting mix of contemporary art, antique prints and old photographs. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner in this cozy country Inn.
