We chose a couple of vegetarian options - quiche and mushroom lasagne. Both meals were very tasty and the accompanying salads were delicious so we decided to order 2 flat whites. The coffees were terrific! The service was friendly and it was a very good value lunch!

What a sublime place! The Good Earth is a vegetarian restaurant just off the High Street in the…read morebeautiful cathedral city of Wells. The restaurant is sandwiched between a Good Earth shop and Good Earth grocer, so you can fulfil your veggie/vegan dreams before and after partaking of your meal. The selection of dishes is excellent. Quiches are simply magnificent and main courses at long last (and a rarity) demonstrate that vegetarian food needn't be a tasteless stodge, but can be stimulating, with a variety of interesting textures and a delicious combination of flavours. The restaurant (self service) gets very busy and it may not be easy to find a space but it's well worth a visit to complement your tour of this delightful city. Shame there aren't more vegetarian restaurants like this around.

Really friendly staff (I've not noticed it's slow, though they won't rush a slow customer), great lassis and fruit salads for surprisingly little cash.

The only all-you-can-eat I've ever left feeling full but happy and healthy!

BOTTOM LINE: Although the food was great, the service left a bit of a bad aftertaste…read more Located next to the infamous Sally Lunn's, Oak (previously known as Acorn - get it?! - and still listed as such on Yelp) is located in the core area of Bath. It's a small space, and I can't imagine there being space for more than 25-30 diners (or even less), and each table as relatively small in size (more on this later). First, the good part. The food remains the main attraction, and ingredients across the board tasted consistently fresh. Whether it was the HAZELNUT RISOTTO, the ROASTED COURGETTES/ZUCCHINI, the BEETS, or the TOMATO SOUP, I found they were prepared to a high standard. The dishes are meant to be sharing plates, but this can cause some table real estate problems (also, more on this later). But now, the not-so-good part, the comparatively poorer service, especially when compared to similarly-priced restaurants (e.g., Sotto Sotto), or even less (e.g., Sally Lunn, Yak Yeti Yak, etc.), and then the gall to charge a higher service percentage of 12.5%. For example, my group of 5 experienced both the problems of servers removing plates prematurely (when there was clearly uneaten food), but also not removing plates UNLESS requested to do so, despite finished plates being stacked to make room for new dishes. Similarly, beyond the initial ordering of water and drinks, staff didn't follow up on this, and we had to request new water jugs throughout the meal. Finally, although staff atitudes weren't negative per se, they did seem somewhat indifferent/detached. All these points may seem nit-picky, but I think it's not unreasonable to expect better service at these prices. Ultimately, Oak comes up on many recommended restaurant lists, but after this experience, although I'd still recommend it, I wouldn't be too upset if you can't manage to get a reso here given so many other great alternatives.

Absolutely scrumptious vegetarian and vegan dishes that leave you feeling refreshed and satiated!…read moreAs a tapas style, the small plates are well-priced with the recommendation of ordering 2-3 per person and sharing amongst everybody. Note that the restaurant has rebranded to OAK Restaurant with a new website, but still has the same address and contact information. The menu is quite short with only a dozen choices or so, but each dish has the finest quality of ingredients and refined yet light taste. We ordered all the dishes recommended to us by the server and loved each one: - Nocellara olives (£4.75) - Beetroot tartare, smoked almond cream (£8.95) - Heritage tomato panzanella (£8.50) - Black pepper chickpeas, smoked cashew butter, summer greens (£9.45) - Jersey curd agnolotti, hazelnuts, spinach and butter emulsion (£10.75) Dessert was delicious as well: - Stewed plums, brandy ice cream, almond crumb (£8.25) - Dark chocolate and salted caramel tart, mint ice cream (£8.25) The restaurant was not that busy with only a couple other tables filling in after coming in for our Tuesday noon reservation. We were seated at a corner booth next to a window on the ground floor, which had a relaxing breeze coming through. The cost of five open jars of sparkling water was £3. A 12.50% service charge was added onto the bill.

We'd been traumatised by travel, travelling en masse, tired with hunger taunting us in Taunton, we…read morewanted something nicer than filling up at a roadside filling station. We found a quiet atmosphere-free Free-house to decide on dinner. Bar-side with sweet cider inside us, we made a connection with the frontage opposite. A large comic font banner, a sticker in the window beckoned us to 'The Connection', but from outside we couldn't be sure if it was a restaurant or a travel agency, or even a dating agency. Then a lit candle warmed the setting under the aforementioned confusing banner. It illuminated a double date just visible at the window table. With each person looking into the middle distance they were looking like they were making anything but a connection. Hoping the food was more inspiring and afraid of the alternative offerings of only pizza or kebab, we edged cautiously over the double junction double quick to enquire. A Sandwich board outside announced it was 'Winesday', a free house bottle for every table. We went in. Entering we were heralded by pan pipes; a mix tape began swirling the comforting melody of The X Files theme tune around us. Before we had time to turn back our waiter appeared. Looking surprised to see us form a crowd on a weekday night, our jolly characterful waiter with Fawltless formality apologised for an impending slow service. Not in our best bib and tuckers however, he did seem a little shirty. "Do you have a booking", he enquired taking a formal tone (where until our arrival the place was empty). Grateful for the seats and that it was Winesday, too! The free house's choice bottle for the table more than made up for our non trumpeted arrival. Pleasantly surprised by their Chilean, I'm more than happy to blow their horn for their choice of a bold tropically lush white which complimented our food beautifully. It seemed we'd struck gold at the best place on the street. The interior of this French place was pretty snappy, all muted tones that spoke volumes that this was the town's 'nice place'. To start: My liver parfait was mousse like, light yet retained a rich smooth flavour, braced in crisp pancetta. I'd have enjoyed the accompanying brioche more but I'd buttered too much pre dinner pre warmed pumpkin seed roll to stack up on more carbs. The rest of the table were very happy with the beautifully fresh caught scallops to start, complimented by Southeast Asian spicing, but just a few of the blighters were a bit underdone for one of our likings. Not undoing the enjoyment of our evening, Seafood crepes, covered in grilled cheese were delicious but sadly the salmon within was as mushy as the concept of Parisienne romance that this French inspired brasserie was trying to convey. Also warned of the possible shot, the equally fresh duck dish sitting proudly in a pond of jus was rich and flavourful but as with any duck recipe it either needs long slow cooking to break down the tough meaty fibre or quick cooking to keep it rare as fine French food. Not offensive, but this duck was somewhat perched on the fence. What stole the show was the firm and delicate delectable lemon sole and the passionate enthusiasm of our attentive waiter. Not knowing what else Taunton had to offer, it was well worth one hell of a stopover. We wimped out at dessert, but it seemed that it was this course that kept the table adjacent to us who were out at at sea, back on course for a cheerful evening.

We visited this National Trust self-service cafe on a visit to Avebury Manor (after looking at the…read morestones and adjacent St James's church). Even though it was a wet day (or maybe because of it) it was very busy. It's a standard NT cafe, with the emphasis on cakes, scones, etc. (They apparently also do proper meals but these were not available when we visited as it was mid-afternoon). We had a scone (with clotted cram and jam) and a slice of orange and poppy seed cake, with a pot of tea each. I tried the cake as it was an unusual flavour, and it was delicious. My partner's scone was nice but the (pre-packed) clotted cream was crumbly rather than smooth. (In hindsight we should have asked for another portion). We found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. The interior is a little rustic (wooden furniture, stone floors): fine if you are walking and having an outdoorsy sort of day. There is also seating upstairs which has views over part of Avebury Stone Circle.

As you would expect they are focussed on fair trade, organic food, coffees, teas and seasonal dishes so five green stars. We only got there late on a Sunday afternoon just about an hour before closing so there wasn't much left to eat. They had afternoon teas (scones/clotted cream/jam) but we'd consumed a lot if this English treat in recent weeks so we settled on great cappuccinos, sparking water and tubs of delicious ice cream from a local organic farm - I had ginger and my wife had mint choc chip and they were wonderful tasting. The scones did look lovely though. It was a really hot afternoon so we sat outdoors at one of their large shaded tables and enjoyed our fare. Again really worth supporting as there nowt coming from a crooked Westminster government who know the price of everything but the value of nothing abd know how to claim eye watering sums in 'expenses'.
