Came to Somerset for a short break and found Reeves on Google. Excellent find. Small family run restaurant, delicious food, prompt friendly service. Expensive but they do have a very reasonable set menu on weekdays. Had a good selection of vegan and vegetarian dishes.
A wonderful family-owned restaurant with welcoming staff. They were able to get us a table even though the place was packed and we didn't have a reservation. They had a set menu which was very affordable. The food was presented beautifully, as were the drinks. The service was a little slow but we didn't mind, it left us a lot of time to converse. A member of the staff escorted each guest to the door upon their departure, which was very nice. The restaurant is dog-friendly. I definitely recommend this place!
Had a lovely evening at this restaurant tonight, from the moment you walk through the door you are warmly welcomed treated as though you were the only person in the restaurant.
The food was amazing and the staff also. I just wish this restaurant was closer to where we live.
Would recommend to all who visit Dunster please visit Reeves and you will be rewarded with a lovely evening of quality food and service.
This is a top-tier restaurant and a must-visit if you are passing through Dunster.
Claire makes the experience that extra bit special with her kind, warm and considerate service. These values permeate through the entire restaurant.
What's more, the food is fantastic. We had the beef wellington for Sunday lunch and it was -literallly- mouth watering.
I cannot recommend Reeves Restaurant enough!

What a lovely review! Thank you Danny
Such a cute place and amazing dishes. To start with we had scallops and asparagus , then we went with their seafood pasta, tuna, sea-bass and lamb. To close it off, the orange and chocolate cheesecake + the rhubarb creme brûlée were stunning. Staff were super nice and friendly. I’d come back many times if possible, specially around Christmas time.
The service is exceptional! Fast, friendly and professional. The food is good and the portions generous. I found the cooking a bit inconsistent, with some items, such as the fish fingers overcooked. Despite that, everything was tasty.
1st rate very hard too beat.went for a birthday great food
Just wanted to say what a wonderful dinner we had at Reeves last night. The food was sublime and the staff were so welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. Can’t wait to return.

Wonderful review thank you and we look forward to welcoming you back.
We were back for a 4th year to celebrate our anniversary because we love this place so much. We never fail to have a good time and tonight was no exception; the food was amazing; the service was first class and the restaurant was buzzing. Thank you for a wonderful evening. Roll on next year.
Amazing valentine's evening.
Steak was the best I have eaten.
Really incredible food, excellent service - and the set 'winter warmer' menu is very good value. Thoroughly recommended.
Absolutely beautiful suday lunch. We were at butlins and saw the reviews, so I booked a few weeks in advance for a group of 4 ladies for a birthday meal. We were not disappointed, the best meal I've had out for a very long time. Thank you for making my birthday special.

Thank you for the lovely review glad you enjoyed it - parking can be tricky but if you are ok to walk the local car park is generally free in terms of space
Expertly cooked and exceptionally welcoming. Highly recommended.
What an wonderful place. We visited for Sunday lunch, without a reservation, and the owner kindly accommodated us even though the restaurant was busy! The food was delicious, amazing cocktails, every member of staff was so helpful and lovely and the decor was cosy and beautiful. It really made our day special, thank you. ❤️

Thank you for the lovely review
Not really a 5 star restaurant, as the stars don't go high enough to rate this restaurant. If I could rate this restaurant at a 7 well above all other places I would.
Mum invited us to come to Reeves restaurant for her pre-december birthday meal with family.
I don't believe you can "only" define Reeves as a restaurant. This is an experience to be treasured and enjoyed and to make memories. The staff catered to our every need without flaw. We were treated to silver service level waiting, and amazing food that left us all full but not bloated. The menu was set as something for everyone and we didn't make a choice based on prices, we based our choices on the food we enjoy the most when we dine out.
Thank you so so much to the owner, the waitresses, the servers, the chefs, cooks, and glass polishers who go above and beyond to create a magical experience and memories to hold many years from now and hopefully many more that we can come back to Reeves to create.
Compliments to your whole team 🙏

My fiancée and I celebrated our engagement evening at Reeves which was the highlight of our day, apart from the engagement of course, the attention to detail, the food, the service, the ambiance were first class.
Thank you to Claire and the team, compliments to the chef, who created amazing food.
We are framing the long stemmed rose which was on the table and we will be back for another amazing evening in the not to distant future.
With our warmest wishes.
Kev & Paula
