The New Inn - North Somerset

Small pub with big garden overlooking the lake. The best thing about it was the garden view. The girl behind the bar was nice enough but I don 't think very beer savvy. Hubby 's 1st beer was glaringly obviously off he had to return it and it was poured away. The 2nd choice ale wasn 't good either so he ended up with cider (which was a bit tainted too). Food was 'meh ' when it eventually arrived after a very long wait and there were only 6 customers in the whole place.

We booked for lunch on Bank Holiday Monday for our granddaughters 10th Birthday. On arrival we thought the menu was small and limited. It was difficult for us to choose food the children would like. After two of us ordered bean chilli with rice we were informed they had run out of rice but offered us chips which we agreed to. Well the chilli was watery tinned tomatoes, chilli powder and 3 different types of beans. The chips were dark brown, overcooked, limp and reheated as were the chips served with the other meals. We were unable to finish our meal as it was the worst chilli I have ever been served. We were very disappointed with the quality of all the food and wouldn't recommend eating at this pub. I informed a member of staff of our disappointment in the quality of food and she said she would tell the chef but no-one from the kitchen spoke to us. Beautiful scenery but awful food.

Very impressed with the pub under new management. Warm welcome on arrival and friendly, personal and efficient service. Simple pub fayre but delicious food, especially the pies which were wonderful. Lovely village pub atmosphere and in the warmer months the views outside are spectacular. Children's meals were also very suitable for younger tastes. Highly recommended
