HQ Canteen Reviews

“What wonderful service, food and view!” and "So quirky!” were just some of the comments from our visit. The annual Mothers’ Union minibus trip this year featured a “Meander over the Mendips to Wells” with a Coffee and Cake stop at the Yeo Valley Canteen. “I didn’t know about this gem” and I will definitely be back” were other comments overheard as we slowly made our reluctant exit. The Yeo Valley Canteen truly is a gem and Roy and the team will certainly look after you. Thank you so much!

The location is beautiful, high up on the hill with a great view. But even if you can’t nab a table with the view, it’s a welcoming, open and relaxing place to be , with great food and friendly service. We went with friends for a birthday breakfast - it was fresh, very nicely cooked and top quality ingredients. Highly recommended.

Amazing service with attention to detail that is rarely found in many restaurants. I had called to see if they could help me with a surprise birthday brunch for my girlfriend and they didn’t disappoint with all the finer detail. Flowers offers for the table, chalk board written by entrance saying happy birthday, cakes great attentive waitress, just amazing all round. A window seat looking across the reservoir and Somerset hills finished it off!! Thanks so much to Roy and his fantastic staff!

Had been meaning to visit for years and finally managed to find the opportunity. We enjoyed the fish and chips but the real highlight were the three or four salads to accompany. All of which made the meal excellent value, with friendly service and great views too. We’ll be returning for sure!

I love Yeo Valley HQ Staff Canteen to have a coffee and catch up with my teens. The team have created such a lovely, warm and friendly environment. Great coffee, yoghurt, granola and bacon sandwiches. We can also stock up on our Yeo Velley Organic favourites. The views are spectacular!
