Top 5 Fine Dining Experiences in Somerset

This year has been tough on everyone, you deserve to treat yourself to a Michelin- approved fine dining experience every once in a while

Little Barwick House

Awarded a Michelin Plate, here is what Michelin has to say about the restaurant: “An attractive Georgian dower house in a tiny hamlet; run by a hospitable husband and wife team. Relax on deep sofas by the fire then head for the elegant dining room. Cooking is classical, satisfying and full of flavour – and a carefully chosen wine list accompanies.”

The Clockspire

Awarded a Michelin plate, the Clockspire sits within an impressive-looking former school dating from 1854 and its high ceiling with exposed rafters is a striking feature. Attractively presented, modern British cooking uses the local larder to good effect. Service is personalised and it feels as though they really care.”

The Olive Tree

Being the only restaurant in Bath awarded a Michelin Star, you will find an unusual edge to what you will have once thought simple flavours – both the SIX and NINE menus are comprised of beautiful, fresh, seasonal dishes. Both can be enjoyed in a welcoming, chic atmosphere of de-formalised fine dining.

Michelin describes The Olive Tree as an “airy, modern basement restaurant where talented chef Chris Cleghorn brings an innovative, personalised approach to the cooking. Colours, textures and flavours are used to full effect in refined, creative combinations which have plenty of depth and while dishes may appear simple at first glance, that’s all part of their skilful make-up.”

Menu Gordon Jones

Awarded a Michelin plate, Michelin states that “This tiny restaurant has a relaxed, cheerful feel – a reflection of its easy-going owner-chef – and the room is dominated by an open kitchen, where you can watch him preparing creative, complex dishes. The daily changing surprise menu delivers punchy flavour combinations and interesting textural contrasts.”
