Blue Ball Inn, The

Dinah Randall (2 April 2009)

This used to be one of our favourite pubs - fantastic location and a good place to take aged friends and relatives from Taunton. I recently had lunch there which was little short of a disaster. Inedible and tasteless soup followed by a rock solid pudding clearly over-heated in a microwave. The food here has always been somewhat variable but frankly this was a real disappointment. The young couple running the place are in need of some serious professional help if this lovely place is not to go down. Sorry to be so brutal but we were hugely disappointed.

Deeply Disappointed (29 March 2008)

We decided to eat there on Easter weekend because of the positive comments on the website but we were deeply disappointed. We didn’t feel welcome and it took a long time for our starters and main course to arrive. Despite being overworked, the young waitress was lovely but the manager left much to be desired. The food was average and the manager did not acknowledge, explain or apologise for the long delays, which would have made a big difference.
