Outstanding restaurant. Wonderful food and service. Brilliant, attentive, and friendly staff. Excellent value for money. A gem of a find, and I would 100% recommend it for intimate dining experiences and large groups. The sections cater for all types, and the menu is spot-on.

I only visit Wells once or twice a year but your Sunday roast is well worth the drive from Surrey. Absolutely superb. Staff are brilliant. Looking forward to my next visit. Thanks to you and all the team.

We really enjoyed our experience at the Pig on the Hill. Staff were really lovely and very attentive. Food was absolutely delicious. For the homity pie, it was really good but the only thing I would say is that for the price, it would be nice to have had a vegetable side with it. I paid £5 for a side of mash potato...it was lovely though. Cocktails were £10-12 each and were a little average which was a bit disappointing for the price. Overall it was a lovely experience, we really enjoyed the food and evening. Definitely recommend
