The Bower Inn, Bridgwater

Excellent light lunch. Lovely combination smoked haddock fishcakes, mango curry sauce, saga loo and poached egg. Beautiful flavours! Adore the biscoffi donuts with coffee too! Service excellent. Relaxed atmosphere and quirky place. Lovely experience.

Large clean room, very large comfortable bed, excellent parking food is good staff very helpful especially Kevin and Chelsea on our stay. Nothing was to much trouble. Only problem full English breakfast not to our taste bacon fatty, sausage spicy, toast like a surf board. There are plenty of other choices wich are very good. We had. 10 for Sunday lunch and it all went very well. Would recommend.

I booked a table at the restaurant. The booking system itself was easy to navigate and use. Upon arriving the staff were very friendly and approachable. The restaurant has a lovely warm country feel and vibe. The food was amazing and I do plan on returning again but only if my amazing, sophisticated and extremely stunning tinder date agrees.

Stayed for 4 nights. Our son lives in Bridgwater and this was a spur of the moment visit so our choice of rooms was limited. Apart from it being up some steep stairs we were pleased with it. (Both in our late 70s) The breakfasts were very nice. Only negative was bread. I would’ve liked a choice of wholemeal bread but was told there was only sourdough. The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We will probably stay again on our next visit but book earlier for a ground floor room.

We booked a table here whilst in the area to celebrate my husband’s birthday (which I mentioned on the booking). Usually when I book a table elsewhere for this kind of occasion, the staff make an effort to acknowledge it. Nobody made any mention of it and when I asked a staff member if anything special could be done she said she would check with a supervisor. The supervisor told me they don’t usually do anything special for birthdays but would bring him a brownie dessert. We ordered dessert and coffee but no brownie was forthcoming so we paid and left. I wish I had booked somewhere else now. Aside from this the service was a little slow but the food was lovely, with some kind of acknowledgment of the birthday this would be a solid 5 stars!
