"His cooking was spontaneous, as if done for friends"
   The Iindependent 2005

Some of the finest award-winning food in the region.

Our menu is a moveable feast - changing sometimes daily with the seasonal availability of fresh ingredients and the catch landed at Bridport. The word ‘local’ crops up a lot when The Pilgrims is discussed, and not just in the traditional pub sense.

It’s more that we have become a bit of a focal point for good things produced hereabouts, a showcase for and champion of many of the wonderful artisan crafted drinks and foodstuffs from what would be the Appellation of Somerset, if there were any justice. We’re not fanatical about it, just more than a bit passionate. We have a habit of not standing on ceremony at The Pilgrims, the idea is restaurant food in an atmosphere that’s as relaxed as a good pub.
