This pub is nothing short of amazing, their portions are incredible and staff are so friendly. My little brother is autistic and has ADHD, Georgiah never fails to make him happy with her authentic and bubbly personality, she is so kind to him. He loves her company, not only that but all of the staff here are so friendly and welcoming. I work in hospitality myself and the energy all of the staff give off is incredible. Friday nights with the raffles is the absolute best! We come down every bi-weekly Friday and have the time of our lives. This is SO much fun and is such a good idea. Will be back here many many times again.

This place has gone under. The food always takes time to come out even though we were the only people in the beer garden 40 minutes for pizza and a schnitzel? The side salad was gone soggy as it was likely saved from lunch,spinach and garnish lettuce, it was awful . The wings were Luke warm cause they are pre cooked, which I understand but at least heat up. Won't be returning.

This is a tough review to write as I feel that giving 2 stars for service is not fair on the young lady that served us at our table in the beer garden, and whom was fantastic at her job.We always enjoy our meals, drinks, and the layout and atmosphere of the booths in the beer garden area. The blunt dismissive barman (fair haired with a short beard) however is a massive liability to your establishment. This guy seriously needs to consider a career change, or at the least he should be given some retraining. Whilst standing 3 people deep at the bar waiting to be served, this guy was at the other end of the bar having a chit chat with another patron. The guy in front of me asked for service, his response was a rude " yeah someone will be with you in a minute" This sort of attitude, and many other similar interactions with him, and not just on this occasion but many times over the last year or so, are enough to make us consider never coming back. All the other people waiting, and another group at a table next to ours all commented on this guys surly self important personality. I do hope that the owner or someone in upper management reads this, as he is is a terrible liability to an otherwise great place to come to. Myself, with family and friends have been coming here regularly for many years, and would hate to see this loyal patronage ruined by one bad apple.

Saturday night, they lost my booking for 3 for dinner in the bistro and had to sit in the worst booth in the beer garden freezing cold even with the tiny overhead gas heater. The barmen made me the worst soda, lime and bitters l've ever had. The meal was ok thankfully and the young lady who brought our food was delightfully.

My wife Wendy and I have been coming to the Somerset for a long time but in the last couple of years the level of service and quality of food have been amazing. The friendliness and courtesy exhibited by the staff is incredible and in particular Georgiah (who is an absolute bundle of happiness), Rebecca, Taryn and Shannon. Their customer service skills are exceptional and in conjunction with the wonderful selection of meals at terrific prices makes you want to come back again and again. You won’t be disappointed !!!

I was part of a large gathering for lunchtime. I must say the food was excellent, fresh & hot as was all of the guests. The service we had was also excellent & very friendly. The room we were in was clean & well kept. The outside of the hotel was also very well kept. Overall, it was a gr8 experience. Well done, Somerset Hotel. Highly recommend your establishment.

I'm disappointed in my lunchtime meal as was my husband. My Thai beef salad was gristley, the beef strips were not tender, and it was overly salty, as was my husbands ribs and wings dish. The wings were covered in what should have been a crispy golden coating, but it was not. The chicken coating was pale in colour, and the flesh did not fall off the bone tender as expected from a dish like this. If this was my first time here, I would not return, but I have had good to great dinner meals in the past.

Had horrible encounter with a patron that come up to our table to abuse myself and my family for a baby playing with keys and laughing swearing and telling us to shut up and to go back to Elizabeth where we belong, staff came out and told us to not interact instead of helping us and making the patron leave. We will never be going back and I STRONGLY advise if u have children DO NOT attend this facility for a meal, couldn't even enjoy a drink before ordering a meal

Great pub with a good blend of modern and traditional spaces. Traditional resturant offers a quiet space to enjoy dinner with it's own bar for drinks, and a fantastic hot salad bar with fresh bakes and pasta. The tucked away sports bar is a lively corner with ample bar seating, a few tables and many screens. The beer garden is an amazing well designed indoor/outdoor space. With cosy booths (each with personal speaker tv, heater and fan) outdoor fire, dj booth, and stage. All bars offer a weekly rotating bar specials, and offer classic pub meals with gluten free, vegeterian, and vegan options.
