   Where do I start? We booked to have dinner and when we arrived the pub was fairly quiet. We wanted to order the trio of roasts but the beef had run out. So we opted to have a mix of rolled belly of pork and chicken. There was no stuffing, no leeks or apple sauce as these too had run out. The meat was ok, chunky chicken pieces and the pork was a little tough. We had our dog with us too and they advertised dog meals so we were offered dried fish and chips. It was only after we gave this to our dog that I noticed that the best before date had been scratched out. Sadly both myself and my partner became unwell in the night as did our dog who ended up having to see the vet. I have complained to the pub to make them aware but they are very slow to respond. I wouldn’t recommend the Golden Fleece to eat, but Nikki our server couldn’t have been more obliging.

   Friendly, welcoming staff and the best Sunday lunch I’ve had in ages. Large portion with tender meat and a variety of veg. Highly recommend.

   A welcome addition to the Wells eating out scene, sitting nicely standard and price-wise between fine dining and usual pub food. A lot of imaginative marketing going on behind the scenes to sell tables mid-week in January and there were a good few customers. Service could have been quicker but there was only one member of staff dealing with food and bar so not her fault at all. Music was a bit intrusive and would have liked the option of booking a dog-free area ( perhaps that will change later in the season). Hopefully the pub will now have a long stay in the town after successive management changes.

    Staff made us very welcome. I had requested a table with a view as it was a special occassion and they happily managed this. Nice atmosphere in the pub with locals and visitors.
