Dine with us at The Old Vicarage Hotel & Restaurant
Here at The Old Vicarage in Bridgwater we’re proud to welcome you to our restaurant. Open 7 nights a week to the public as well as our hotel guests, we strive for excellence in all that we do and our food menu is no exception.
We are lucky to be one of the only Bridgwater restaurants to have a number of options of where to dine when you visit us. You can choose to dine inside our newly decorated restaurant, or have a private party in our panelled Oak Room. Maybe you prefer our heated and covered patio (which is also available for bookings and perfect for dinner parties) or even alfresco in our beautiful walled garden when the weather is good! We also have a wood-fired pizza oven on the patio for the summer months – perfect for hazy summer evenings with a refreshing glass of wine or a cool beer.
