The Plough Inn

Really good evening yesterday. Guys running the pub were great, and really hospitable. Cider fantastic. Food mostly Pieminister so you know what you are getting if you've had before elsewhere. Definitely have the pork scratchings. Would be very happy if this was my local.

The Plough was recommended to me, by a friend who lives locally, for the selection of local ciders. Bar-lady kindly offered a few tasters before I settled on a pint of Harry's Scrummage Medium at just £4, which seemed very good value coming from London. Head went pleasingly wobbly after just the one pint. 😁

Found this little gem on a Google search and went with the previous reviews, as we were visiting the area and didn't know what was good. We needed something dog friendly too.
What a great find, totally not what I expected when I walked in, the place is like a tardis, lots of cosy little rooms to sit. Great choice of lagers, ales and ciders. The bar lady was so helpful and gave us samples of their lagers on tap to see which one we liked. We lucked in that we arrived on curry night! £10 per person for a curry and a pint.
The new chef, Chris has a wealth of cuisine knowledge and did a Caribbean mutton curry with coconut rice. It was amazing! We had our teenage son with us and Chris even brought out a taster of the curry for him to try to see if he liked it. He was so chatty and came over to the table a few times to say hi.
This place obviously has a good reputation already, but with Chris leading the way, it's only going to get better! Don't believe me? Try it yourself.

You wanna have a relaxed chilled time with cool people all the way around then this is the place for you. Kris and Anna the bartenders can't be beat in the World Class customer service category, any type of drink and just plain being nice. Chris the Manager is the perfect Business Manager making sure it all runs smoothly.

Been in here a few times over the years when I get chance, great pub. Just seems to keep getting better aswell! Friendly bar staff. Walking distance from the train station, great location if you're returning from a shopping trip. Always seems to be busy which is a bonus! Great little out of the way town pub

It's still my favourite pub in Taunton; despite changing hands a number of times over the last decade, it still retains its down-to-earth charm, by continuing to sell a good selection of cask ales and local ciders, at realistic and reasonable prices.

I love this pub normally and make the effort to travel long distance from London to stay in Taunton specially for this pub as a mid point to the south west, but completely baffled tonight when arriving at 2330 with a 2am closure that we were not allowed to enter as they had shut early on a Friday night. Very disappointing, usually an enjoyable place and wasn't worth staying in Taunton tonight seeing as I didn't get to visit this place ☹️

Still one of my favourite pubs in Taunton! Great selection of drinks at a bargain price. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
