'THE GREAT BRITISH CARVERY' AVAILABLE AT OUR PUB

All of our Carvery joints come from British Red Tractor Assured Farms that ensure the safety and welfare of their animals, whilst protecting and caring for the environment. We only source the very best British meats and seasonal vegetables, so our Carvery offer changes every day.

Today’s roasted meats will be usually a choice of 3 of the following:
Matured Saxon British beef, Norfolk turkey, Stuffed belly of Norfolk pork, Leg of Yorkshire pork, Outdoor bred British gammon, West Country shoulder of lamb. All served with a homemade Yorkshire pudding, chipolata sausage and stuffing. Choose from a selection of freshly prepared vegetables and potatoes. Top it all off with our roast onion (v) or roast meat gravy.

Monday to Saturday  £7.50.  Sunday  £8.95.

If you do not fancy a Carvery meal our Table menu has a comprehensive range of the best pub food dishes. Why not try our 'Homemade Pie of the Day' served with your choice of Carvery vegetables.

Blackbrook Tavern, RuishtonThe Blackbrook Tavern is to be found 500 yards from Junction 25 of the M5 on the A358 Ilminster Road at Ruishton.  Apart from being only a few miles from Taunton with its historic castle and museum, other local attractions are Cricket St Thomas, half an hour's drive and the  Crealy Adventure Park, 45 minutes drive away.  Built into the hill, this ivy covered Inn dates back to the 18th Century.  Fully refurbished to a high standard in June 2008, we have a new contemporary look with a neutral toned colour scheme of beiges and browns. The restaurant has been extended and opened up to create more of an airy, open space with attractive plants around.  There are now upper and lower restaurant areas, with a total o 250 covers, as well as a small seating area to enjoy just a drink or a cup of coffee. This busy destination food house offers quality food served from our daily carvery or extensive table menu, giving a wide variety of dishes, all of which are freshly prepared in-house and cooked to order.  Meat used is all 'red tractor certified' and farm assured and we try to source our produce locally. Outdoors has been given a spruce up as well, with fresh paint.  The beer garden offers a retreat during the summer months and has a play area for our younger visitors to use up some of their energy.  Covered areas with giant umbrellas and a pagoda, both have heating and lighting, so can be used all year round.  This pretty venue is one to put on your 'must try soon' list and worth travelling a little out of your way to find.  We would love to see you soon.
