We visited Hillbrush on the way down to Cornwall and our return from our holiday. On both occasions the staff were really friendly and professional and the food was fresh and generous. On the way down we stopped for breakfast and while the adult menu was services prices, it was all fresh and very good quality and the kids menu was incredibly good value. On the return we stopped for lunch and my 5 year old was sick as we entered. There was no eye rolling from any of the staff and they immediately helped sort it out quickly and again in a very friendly and professional manner. The lunches were delicious, particularly the trout roll. The museum section was random but really interesting and enga...
Found this place by chance looking for a stop on the way back from Cornwall. Modern and attractive restaurant attached to a factory in an industrial area of Mere. First observation was that the men's toilets paper towel dispenser was empty and women's toilets were without toilet rolls. This is just not acceptable. Ordered the breakfast from the all day menu but told it was not available so went for Charlies BLTs and Caesar salad. All were disappointing but particularly the BLT. Made from toasted rye bread so overtoasted you had to break them as you couldn't bite or cut them. Service was slow and when asked how everything had been I said it was awful but this drew no response at all. Paid and...
Most expensive burger and cup of tea I’ve ever had. 2 teas 1 chicken burger , and 1 veggie burger £40. This cafe is without atmosphere, the seating uncomfortable and the menu limited Probably the most expensive food i Mere pound for pound. I can also add the brushes are expensive and mediocre , Avoid this cafe, the services are cheaper, Morrisons in Wincanton is 5 minutes down the A303.
A great place to stop and enjoy great locally sourced food all made in-house. The food options are great and dietary requirements were taken into consideration. Nice to look around the museum that is on-site, and understand the history of the business and how it came to fruition. The shop stocks a great selection of products, even some that are manufactured on-site in the factory!

Disappointing for me! It seems I ordered the duff lunch… Cheese soufflé… which was more a 1cm deep cheesy puddle… followed by Caesar salad; rubbery chicken bits (not chicken breast) and a bottle sauce… in fresh lettuce… The Scotch egg my friend had looked nice though.
Went for coffee and ice cream. The team member who served me was lovely, the service was prompt, the ice cream and coffee delicious and she even brought a bowl of water for me dog. We sat outside under an umbrella. It was very pleasant.
Just off the A303 this restaurant is part of a new factory that makes brushes. There is a museum and shop and lovely restaurant offering a good range of meals. Somewhere different with easy access and parking. Well worth a try.
So good I felt compelled to leave a review. If you’re travelling to the south west I’m yet to find a better spot to stop for breakfast, outstanding.
