Had my appointment today, the hygienist was very friendly and welcoming. The procedure was painless and I have very clean teeth. Booked up for another appointment in 6 months. I would recommend my hygienist as she is very good at her job and a very professional pleasant person.

As usual, efficient and kind. I had a choking fit and thought I would pass out. The dental assistants were very helpful and Bart was his usual considerate self. I have nothing but praise for them all.

Good experience, as soon I entered the building the receptionist, Cristina, was very welcoming and helpful . My dentist , Suzana was amazing doing an amazing job fixing my tooth problem. I felt looked after and reassured when I left. Highly recommended, Thank you

Rang with hope of getting seen. Couldn't believe that I got a same day appointment, let alone that same morning. Lovely staff. Really nice Dentist. Treated me so nicely. Can't recommend them enough.

Outstanding! From the moment you walk in it's a positive experience. Receptionists are very pleasant & helpful and it's an overall nice environment. Dentist (Bart) did a brilliant job doing my root canal and I can't recommend him and the dental practice more highly.

An amazing maize, maze one of the best around. What a pity it's the final maze this year. A wonderful attraction for all the family with all the usual facilities including a superb little cafe. Play area for younger children and very reasonably priced. Staff extremely friendly and helpful adding to the experience. The maze is open all summer until early September so get in there quickly for a brilliant day out!

Went with my sister ( a local ) and daughter and granddaughter. Food was really lovely. Highly reccomend the quiche. The play area is safe and really well laid out. If you are in the area it is well worth a visit. We live over an hour away but do make a beeline for Blackmarsh Farm when visiting. Staff are lovely too.

I love this little place that has a larger personality especially around the holidays, nice food, nice helpful staff, and full of friendlyness. It gets bigger and louder during the holidays and summer months when it opens the play area and the maize maze. Lovely for families and children. I have to say it pleases my heart to see this place set up for children's outside play, they certainly keep you on your toes, even when you are not part of that group or party, it has a little downside life everywhere when is busy hearing can be an issue even when sat face to face, so if you're expecting a wee cuppa or coffee or lunch in peace or relative quite here, you honestly won't know until you get there. It's just lovely hearing the children and youths being a play outside and not attached to their phones or computers.

Windy Corner Cafe

I think we paid around £10 for 3 babyccinos, a double espresso and 2 packets of biscuits, which given today’s prices is pretty good 🙌🏻 Side note: the Babyccinos are awesome. They’re £1.45 and you get frothy milk with marshmallows but a cheaper version for kids. Highly recommend and the kids loved them👌🏻 I could imagine that it would be quite relaxing and enjoyable, but we had 3 kids. Sitting in a cafe is generally not all that enjoyable with kids but they were quite bearable and no one died. And big up to the member of staff that took the time to have a chat with one of our kids and even gave them all paper bags to collect treasure in from the beach 🙌🏻

It was windy inside but a hellabullo outside...great cafe with great views. Great menu and service was prompt and with a smile. Our dog loved the attention and the doggie sausage which was a nice touch. Food was well presented and tasty and hit the spot. The cafe has an extension menu and do great breakfast upto midday. Lovely cakes too but we were full from our lunch. Recommend the coated chips with. Cheese and pulled pork...yum 😋

Came here on a recommendation of a family member and I was glad I did! It was a busy day and the staff were clearly rushing all over the place, with our food taking quite a while to arrive. However, our breakfast was fresh, hot and most importantly; extremely tasty! Great quality sausages (a big hit for me) and thick cut bacon. Minor complaint that I received fried bread instead of toast, but it wasn't enough for me to raise it at the time. Nice coffee too! Even had some colouring bits for young kids, which is a nice touch.

We heard from the owner of our holiday let that this pub was under new ownership so we thought we'd give it a try and we both had lovely meals. There's a small car park adjacent along with a small garden. The locals park right outside the pub door making entry and exit difficult but that's locals for you.

Good food, well presented and tasty. Excellent service. But the restaurant completely lacked atmosphere, the cafe was far more attractive and interesting. The restaurant was very echoy and even with only a few guests was noisy. A pity as that let down and excellent venue

A gorgeous cafe & restaurant with stunning views. I came for a Halloween themed quiz & since this one, they’re going to do monthly quizzes now. The food is delicious, you can eat in or takeaway. I had the loaded curly fries which were so tasty and filling (£16, worth every penny). The staff in the cafe are all lovely, friendly people who will go the extra mile to make sure customers are happy. Prices are reasonable for the quality of food and service. The atmosphere is brilliant - the decor is so creative with plants and wall art. There is also a beautiful wedding venue next door to the cafe which is part of the same business. A stunning, large open space with an upstairs balcony and gorgeous views. It’s clear they’ve recently touched up the place and look after it as the toilets are so modern and clean.

I never make reviews but I really had to on this one! I came here just before Christmas as I’ve had major problems with my wisdom tooth. My husbands dentist is Rodger and he told him about my problem and Rodger made a quick appointment to see me straight away! Being a dental nurse myself before I had my children, I’ve worked in many surgery’s so I’ve experienced many dentists and how they all work. And I really cannot recommend Rodger enough! He made me feel soo comfortable and relaxed just by meeting me for the first time, chatting away like I already knew him. His knowledge and the way he works is amazing! I was so nervous about having my tooth out but I didn’t even feel any pain even with the injections at the start as he knew what right position the nerves were. I didn’t even k ke my tooth was already out when he said! Thankyou so much to all the crew at crewkerne dental and implant!

I needed a fair bit of dental work done, I’ve not had the best experiences with dentists but I can honestly say I’ve never felt more at ease or looked after before…I felt no judgment, every procedure was explained to me thoroughly and because of the people here my quality of life has changed…I’m able to now eat pain free and smile for the first time without feeling embarrassed…this is a brilliant dental practice and have recommended it to everyone

After 12 years of not going to the dentist because of my bad phobia, I could not of been given any better treatment then I was given by all the staff. Staff were very patient with me, and all the girls were lovely, considering I was blubbering all over the place. Keep up the fantastic work, your all brilliant.

Best coffee i've had in Coffee#1 just now. Hot, thick frothy milk and she even cleansed my reusable cup for me! its a f4 star however, as there are very few sockets - almost as bad as the Costa here🙄

Lovely iced coffee and coffee. Server was really friendly however the lady preparing the drinks seemed quiet harassed and not very friendly when asked if there was any straws and answered very stressful "we don't have any straws" no means of an apology or explanation. Found it quiet blunt and rude. Shame as the ambience was so lovely but would consider whether to return or not.

Went in Costa first and it was so cold and lacking in atmosphere that we turned around and left, and walked up to Coffee #1 instead, and how glad I am that we did! Amazing atmosphere, wonderfully funny & welcoming staff, and the coffee’s delicious and very reasonably priced. Plenty of space and comfy chairs, dogs welcome, really lovely, we’ll be back!

I enjoy visits to Coffee#1. Had a pot of tea this time and a flapjack. It was quite small and not worth £2.65. I know costs are high, but this was not value for money. It's a good place with a variety of seats and tables.
