"We live just down the road from Axbridge and popped in for dinner as we had heard good things about this place.The first thing that is difficult is parking! There are restrictions everywhere for 24 hours a day as far as we could tell. Of course, that is not the fault of the restaurant but it does contribute to one 's enjoyment of an evening.Anyway, the restaurant and bar area are very nicely decorated, warm and welcoming. we were greeted by a very pleasant young lady and had a drink at the bar first. very chatty and friendly woman behind the bar too.On being seated at the restaurant, we had a tasty amuse bouche and drinks (decent wine list .The menu is good. There were at least three things on there that I could have ordered on the spot! Traditional British style choices, very nice. However, I could not justify paying £30 for an 8oz fillet of beef with some sauce!!I had the pigeon starter, which was very nicely cooked, pink all the way through and tender as well (water bath, maybe? . However, when it arrived at the table it was all quite cold as if it had been sitting for a while before being brought out. My wife had the soup, which was home made and she said it was good.We both went for the pork belly main course, and both agreed that it was rather dry. There was nice crackling and all the potatoes and veg were nicely cooked, but the actual pork meat was not unctuous with reduced fat. All in all, good service, nice place but the kitchen was not on top form that night. We would give them another chance however, this meal was 'average ', not 'poor '."

Had a lovely evening meal here. After reading a few reviews about customers being banned I was a little wary, particularly with 2 children (aged 11 and 13) in tow. However, I have nothing but positives about the bar and restaurant. Very friendly staff, delicious food and lovely surroundings. Highly recommend.

Really lovely atmosphere and surroundings and amazing food a last minute booking that was far better than we could have hoped for. The tomato soup was very special, and the chicken and sea bass mains equalled any top restaurant. Some amuse bouches and brilliant service mean that we'll recommend and be back to the Oak House again.

As I go to write this review I notice I wrote one in 2014 when things were dreadful....and they haven't improved. I went here for tapas with my mum. What came to the table was inedible. Frozen tapas from Iceland would be better. Everything was deep fat fried and dripping in oil. The bread was hard and stale. The worst part was we told them politely it was inedible and they still charged us! For food we'd barely took two bites out of! I wont make the mistake of going back again. Such a shame as the pub itself looks nice and we love Axbridge.
