Frommer's Review

This much-renovated Georgian town house once was hailed as the best restaurant in the West Country. Because of increased competition, it no longer enjoys such a lofty position, but the food is still good. Menu choices change frequently, according to the inspiration of the chef and the availability of ingredients. Everything is made on-site and from scratch. Start with such choices as steamed River Exe mussels in sweet chili jam or locally kiln-smoked chicken on a seasonal salad bed. From here, you can order such well-crafted mains as a roast pumpkin and sage risotto, or grilled filet of line-caught sea bass with a shallot-and-balsamic dressing. A whole roast partridge is served on savoy cabbage with bread sauce.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
