Something special has taken root at the old Podshavers site.

For years, Podshavers was a much-loved local spot for fine dining and special occasions — a place full of memories. We’re proud to build on that legacy with a fresh new chapter: Meadow Somerset.

Now open and thriving, Meadow Café has quickly become a welcoming space for locals and visitors alike — where great food, speciality coffee, and the simple pleasures of Somerset life come together. Our café serves seasonal dishes, artisan bakes, and Baboo Gelato, all in a relaxed, family-friendly setting at the foot of the Quantocks.

But Meadow is more than a café.

It’s a place to gather, celebrate, and slow down. Join us for our monthly rotisserie chicken nights, live music, and other community events that bring people together.

Our beautiful new Meadow Room is now open — a private function space for up to 30 guests, perfect for celebrations, meetings, or special occasions. The Meadow Room will soon also host regular yoga and pilates classes, offering a calm and restorative space within our growing venue.

And there’s more to come…

A children’s play area (opening November 2025), a woodland sauna (coming December 2025), and our first off-grid cabin (launching February 2026) are all on the way — part of our vision to create a place that blends connection, creativity, and relaxation.

Whether you’re here for a morning flat white, a leisurely lunch, or a gathering with friends, Meadow Somerset is here to welcome you — with good food, good company, and the best of Somerset hospitality.
