Mother’s Day Lunch – 22nd March 2020
The perfect way to spend Mother's Day!
Treat Mum to lunch this Mother’s Day
It’s fast approaching, but Sunday 22nd March is the date for your diary! Before you get the cold shoulder, it’s time to get your table booked for Mother’s Day otherwise it’s a tin of beans and an emergency bunch of flowers from the garage. No one wants that. Least of all Mummy-dearest, even if she says its “fine”. Ouch.
So, get ahead and into the good books by reserving your table nice and early, guaranteeing your table and future inheritance.
Whether it’s a meal for just the two of you to enjoy a cosy catch up, or celebrating with the whole family, surprise Mom with a table at the Mendip! Oh, and don’t forget the Mother-in-law too, make it a proper family affair.
For starters
Our Sunday lunch menu is tried, tested and perfected to bring you the best seasonal produce and celebrate all things family every week. And Mothering Sunday should be no exception. We have all the classics including homemade soup, paté and prawn cocktail, something to keep Granny happy! Alongside we have BBQ Chicken Wings, Salt & Pepper Squid, or an indulgent Butternut Squash Risotto to tempt you with and get your lunch off to a flying start.
Main course
It’s got to be a traditional roast, hey? Choose from our succulent cuts of Roast Topside of Beef or Slow Braised Brisket if you’re a roast beef fan. To compliment our full roast offering we also have our finest Roasted Leg of Somerset Pork and Roast Lamb Wellington if you’d like something more spring-like. All roasts come served with a huge, homemade Yorkshire pudding, because that’s only fair, right?!
To finish
You can never, ever forget about dessert. For a sweet toothed mum, our Bramley Apple & Oat Crumble Tart is a must. However is something slightly creamy & cool is more her thing then she’ll love our Vanilla Panna Cotta or the Very Berry Cheesecake; both slightly lighter and less guilt-ridden! However, if mum is going all out then can we tempt her with our decadent Belgian Chocolate Brownie or everyone’s favourite, Sticky Toffee Pudding? They’re the way to win over hearts for another year!
Drinks compliment
Our Mum’s Day menu is perfectly complemented by our Aperitifs and cocktails. These are lovingly crafted by our bartending team, using the finest local ingredients. Likewise, make your meal complete with one of our speciality coffees and digestifs.
Don’t forget!
Mother’s Day is Sunday 22nd March, and we are thrilled to be sharing the day with you all. Our cosy venue and friendly team will make it a lunch gift to remember.
So make a date with your family & friends, and book the perfect lunch treat for everyone at The Mendip!

Our talented chefs have carefully created a set of unique menus for lunch & dinner, a new Sunday lunch menu, alongside new children’s menus to give little ones a treat too. This spring we are bringing you the flavours and luxurious aromas of Italy on our new starter plates. How about sampling our Arancini Balls or a Risotto with butternut squash & sage, which have a strong Italian influence.

Following one of the largest food trends in recent years we are continuously improving and developing our vegetarian and vegan dishes. With all the fresh new produce spring is the perfect season to try a plant-based diet. Can we tempt you with our new Kung Po Cauliflower, Moroccan Vegetable Tagine, or our Quinoa & Spinach Burger, perhaps? All cooked using the freshest local herbs, fruit and vegetables from our local growers, we hope you’re going to love them! And we could never forget the desserts. Sample delights such as Sticky Toffee Pudding, Crème Brulée, or our Country Pub Trio if you’re torn between a few dishes!

2020 Celebrations at The Mendip Inn – Valentine’s Day
Fish Night Friday
Fresh market fish specials every Friday from 12pm - 2:30pm & 6pm - 9pm
Fresh Fish Friday
New for 2019 we have combined two of our favourite things: Fridays and beautifully cooked fresh fish!
Fresh Fish Friday launched in January and so far the dishes have been sensational, we have had great feedback from our customers and we are just as excited as you are to see what chef creates each week.
We wanted to try something new for 2019, and January seemed like a great place to start. Our Head Chef loves creating dishes and pairing ingredients, so we thought we’d give him a challenge. We pop down to the market each Friday morning and pick up a few of the freshest fish options available on that day, it’s then down to our chef to come up with incredible fish specials. The dishes are then put up on our specials board and prepared to our high standard all before our first guests arrive!
So what can you expect from Fresh Fish Friday?
We serve our fresh fish specials from 12pm – 2:30pm and 6pm – 9:30pm every Friday! You will be able to choose from a number of specials, each one featuring a beautiful piece of fish or seafood at the very heart of the dish. Each special will be created to compliment a seasonal piece of seafood and will be developed on that day. The specials will be creative, inventive and, of course, will include a piece of fish as it’s main focus. The special dishes are created fresh each week, there will therefore be different specials every Friday!
For a taste of what you can expect from our Fresh Fish Friday specials some of our previous specials are shown below.
Clockwise from top Left: Cornish hake fillet with green lipped mussels, in a beurre blanc sauce served with carrots and tenderstem broccoli. A pave of stonebass on a bed of roasted red peppers in a tomato, olive and caper sauce. Skrei Supree cod fillet, pan seared, served on a bed of asparagus and tenderstem broccoli, topped with green lipped mussels in a lemon butter sauce. A whole lemon sole – oven roasted with white wine and lemon, topped with samphire, and served with crushed potatoes and veg
Some of our other specials have included:
- Cod, bacon and brie fishcakes, served with salad, fries and coleslaw.
- Smoked haddock and Mozzarella fishcakes served with salad, fries and coleslaw.
Did you know that Fish is one of the healthiest foods on the planet? It is loaded with important nutrients, such as protein and vitamin D. It is also the world’s best source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are incredibly important for your body and brain. All the more reason to pop down to The Mendip Inn on a Friday. We will make sure your weekly fish fix is delicious.
“Fantastic menu, dishes always superbly cooked and presented. Yum. Top quality dining. Nothing else around to match it.” – Feedback from one happy customer.
