Put it this way, if this pub was in London they'd be queuing round the block to get in every night. The actual building is 17thC and there's been a pub on site for over three hundred years now. In it's latest incarnation (of must be getting on for twenty years or so now) it's also known as Milk Street Brewery. Yup, it's got it's own brewery out back - and the beers are a small but select range of utterly delicious ales. The most famous is the aptly named 'Beer' beer, and Funky Money, also Zig-Zag are highly reccomended too. I can't wait to try this season's new brew 'Bobbled', launching on 1st December. I don't know how they manage to pack in so much. There are music nights, quiz nights, 'event' nights, and a children-welcome policy of usually up top about 9pm. There's even a small but delightful beer-garden out back for smokers. Buy the t-shirt and drink the pint - and if you catch Sausage Sunday you'll be glad you did. Great atmosphere in this Bohemian quarter of the old town (this happens to be my 'local' of choice, being under two minutes walk away. Yesssss!) Highly reccomended!

I often find that you cannot judge a pub by its exterior. We were pleasantly surprised this afternoon. I don't know who put the spaniel by the door, but it was the perfect welcome! :) Welcome at the bar, not crowded but very cosy with a lovely open fire. We were guided to a lovely table by the fire which was perfect. We had a lovely lunch too. My wild boar sausages with leek and herbs were fantastic, all meat and no filler I could detect. The mash was yummy and the gravy. The veggies were water logged but I don't hold that against them. (my meal was less than £9.) My companion ate ham, egg and chips and it looked good. The puds that arrived at the table next door looked pretty good and were appreciated. Hobgoblin on tap, Butcombe bitter amongst others. The landlords are really friendly and I look forward to coming back again sometime soon. Oh, they have a field at the back to hire for events. What is the bike doing up on the stake? Didn't ask. http://www.bellatbuckland.co.uk In the CAMRA good beer guide three years running

Although, it's not the place for giants as there are low ceilings or if you're not good stairs as it's a bit like the Burrow from Harry Potter. The upstairs rooms on the top floor are deluxe double beds, with an ensuite, a large old fashioned bathtub, tv and complimentary tea and coffee. If you prefer a shower, the rooms located in the courtyard near the pub are the one for you. Make sure to take advantage of the barn style pub and restaurant, which serve up good quality seasonal food at reasonably prices if you're not after the usual pub grub. I enjoyed a classic beef burger which hit the spot and the tasting plate, accompanied by local beer and cider. For breakfast, there is proper cafe quality coffee and tea is by UK brand teapigs. There is a range of hot and continental options. I had the eggs royale, which exceeded my expectation of hotel breakfasts. After researching and sussing out a few places to stay, this one seemed the best, a real small town gem. I'll definitely be back!

Located between Frome and Radstock in the heart of the Somerset countryside this little gem of a country pub and restaurant takes some beating. Set in ample gardens in Lower Vobster with plenty of outside seating if the weather is kind to you, the welcome once inside is warm. The real ale on pump when I called in was Butcombe Bitter, a little local treasure from North Somerset and was as bright as a brass button and tasted as good as it looked. The menu is not vast but is varied; the fresh fish board is a highlight. The fish mixed grill offers great value, a selection of king prawns, scallops, with fillets of salmon, bream, and sea bass served with new potatoes and vegetables of the day all for under £20. My companion also plumped for a desert, Sticky Toffee Pudding which was light as feather with a sauce to match, all topped off with a couple of strawberries. The inn also has three quality letting bedrooms for those who may wish to linger a little longer, lunch, dinner, and breakfast maybe! For opening times and directions, see their website, http://www.vobsterinn.co.uk , the trip is definitely worth it!

Excellently kept real-ales (Greene King plus guests) and a traditional, cosy (if slightly care-worn) interior, coupled with very friendly staff, make this the sort of local you'd love to have the end of your street.

The only dilemma seems to be whether you call it the Pack Horse, or the Packhorse. No matter, this is a lovely local pub.

There were no manners or pleasantries used in telling us this at all and when we clarified given there were kids menus on the tables we were told that it was on the door.

Can't comment on food or drink as we were given no opportunity to try it. Don't recommend going here with family.
