The Rainbow On The Lake

We stopped off on our travels for some dinner. They were close to shutting but accommodated us. For was nice for pub food and the owners were lovely. Yes it’s dated but owners were hard working to keep there business going after covid days.

Superb summer location, shady umbrella, tables with fabulous view, calm and beautiful. Space for children and families, including the dogs. Pub food , very well presented and delicious. Good quality produce, vegetarian options, good bread, luscious salads, good ales on tap. Reasonably priced. Excellent service Recommend

Arrive hungry, leave extremely full and happy! Great food and friendly service, will definitely visit again if in the area. The ploughmans was huge, with a wonderful homemade bread, delicious coleslaw and potato salad. Prawn salad was delicious especially with the unexpected fruit (strawberry, blueberry, blackberries and pomegranate) Very reasonable prices! View menu

We sat in the their beautiful garden overlooking fields and the lakes. We ordered sandwiches for lunch and were most delighted to get well filled doorstop sandwiches which came with a lovely mixed salad with berries in it. It was so delicious and such good value for money. This pub should be promoting its lovely food far more than it does. Well worth a visit.

I typically don't write reviews, but the hospitality we experienced at this family-owned pub was so inviting that I felt compelled to share. It felt more like visiting friends than dining out. The food was incredibly delicious, made fresh in-house with generous portions. The pub is situated in a charming location with a great atmosphere. Overall, it's definitely worth making a special trip to visit the Rainbow on the Lake.

I went to this restaurant with my daughter for Sunday lunch and it was a truly terrible experience. We ordered the mixed meat roast and it was disappointing. The beef was tough and chewy, the pork was bland, and the chicken was dry. The gravy was watery, and the potatoes and parsnips were overcooked and hard. The pub itself was in poor condition, with cobwebs and dust hanging from the aging decorations. I will not be returning and I recommend avoiding this place. View menu

What an amazing find, we were on our way back to Bristol from Brighton and needed a break when we saw the sign for The Rainbow on the Lake, it sounded lovely and it was. We ended up staying for lunch and it was delicious, great value for money, very filling, we didn’t eat again for the rest of the day. The owners were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, it was the most pleasant part of our journey, could have stayed all day with those lovely views of the swans on the lake, Would definitely visit again.

We stopped in for a bite to eat, The food was good and tasted great along with the pint of Thachers, The pub staff are great but its looks tired and run down and also lots of dead flys in the conservatry roof covers which can be seen when you sit and eat your meal, Plus lots of cobwebs throughout the pub, but as there was nowhere else around to eat this was our only option, plus the prices on the website/ online were way diffent to the prices you pay which were higher so they could do with uploading the new prices.

This is an idyllic, quirky little pub with great views, great food and a wonderfully welcoming host. We were stuck in the traffic jam on the A303 coming back from Glastonbury, and decided to turn off and find somewhere to eat .. after two abortive stops, we called the Rainbow and he checked how many of us there were and said he could accomodate us. Which ended up being extremely kind of him, since they were short staffed that day. It is very much a family run place, but that's much of its charm we couldn't think of a nicer spot to just relax and get away from the traffic surrounded by flowers, shrubs and a gorgeous lawn being mowed by the cutest little robot mower that fascinated the few dog...
