The room is very spacious with a big ensuite bathroom and pleasantly warm on a cold autumn night. The check-in was fast, albeit we waited for someone to show up at the unmanned front desk as we arrived just before midnight. The bed was very comfortable. The cleanliness was at good domestic level and the location was superb. Right next to the biggest outlet in Somerset and in the heart of the town centre.

The bathroom could do with a little update, but nothing significant. It is still more than adequate for a short stay. A nice creamy shower gel is available, but no shampoo, which is not a deal breaker in our case as we prefer to use our own

Location was perfect for the venue I was attending each day. The room was spacious, warm and comfortable, making it a very pleasant stay during such cold weather. Breakfast was excellent with perfect poached eggs every time. Staff were friendly, helpful and always served with a smile.

More storage could have been provided for guests. The room was certainly big enough to accommodate a wardrobe and/or at least a set of drawers. I was disappointed that the bathroom did not have a shaver point making my electric toothbrush unusable and the wash basin plug did not work properly so the basin would not hold water. Frustrating, and wasteful having to keep taps running to have a wash.

Great, value for money accommodation. Plenty of free on-site parking (must register vrm at reception). Spacious, clean, warm comfortable room. Good choice of food from evening menu - we had 2 evening meals and enjoyed both. Breakfast was good - with fairly wide time span. The ambiance of the pub / restaurant did exceed our expectations. A pleasant place to relax and enjoy the food. The staff were professional and helpful, special mention to Hayley, whose customer service skills were outstanding. The Bear Inn is located within very easy walking distance of the town centre, no more than a short 5 minute walk to the Clarks Village shopping outlet !! All in all a very pleasant stay.

Very minor points - wear and tear on the room was in danger of beginning to show …. Rip in the net curtain, crack in bath side panel. Otherwise no faults.

Everything was spot on, we loved the size of iur room and the fact it was on the ground floor, I asked and got exactly what we wanted. Plus even though I had left it too late to book our christmas dinner a lovely young girl mad sure we were included in their Christmas Day meal. We ate there on Xmas Eve as well food was absolutely superb. We had the best Christmas stay in a long while. We stayed from 24th until 27th December it was opposite the Clarks Factory and Village. Best position and wonderful staff. The size of the room excellent bed very comfortable. Usual tea and coffee in room.

Nothing it was Excellent. We even had access to their Osprey Electric Chargers, as there were two it was easy to access.

I booked a family room on ground level as my friend has heart failure. The room was large and comfortable, the double bed for her was very large possibly bigger than a king size. The single bed is in another room which was also spacious with its own tv. Ample parking outside the property which was a bonus. Breakfast was more than ample and a good choice of menu available with waitress service. Dinner was booked and the food was excellent I booked that through their website and had a 30% festive promotions discount voucher to use which was an added bonus. I would highly recommend this accomodation it is on the door step and 5 minute walk to Clarks Village designer shopping outlet. Glastonbury town is a 5 minute drive away.

Nothing the experience was a delight and would stay their again

We took a chance booking the Bear Inn for a short break between Christmas and New Year. Because we had never been to Street before we decided to do a spot visit to the Bear Inn for a Sunday lunch unannounced. We were very impressed. The staff were most accommodating and very helpful. When we arrived for our 3 night stay we were greeted warmly and had a most relaxing experience. Top marks to the Bear Inn.

No complaints.

The Staff on arrival & Breakfast(Diane) was excellent and went out of her way to meet our requests. Evening meal : Lucy (A Trainee Manager I believe) has great potential and amazing personality skills for such a young person.

The car park was confusing in that there were two cap parks a Council one a The Bear one and it was not clear if we had to pay on arrival until we walked a considerable distance to front main entrance, and there was no rear entrance in heavy rain. The Dining Room Chairs near Reception (Round tables 17 & 18 etc) need replacing and lokked out of keeping with the rest of the Restaurant.

We stayed here for one night as we'd visited RSPB Ham Wall to see the starlings. Our twin room was very comfortable & clean, had everything we needed and was very good value for the money we paid. We had dinner & breakfast here too and the food was good and filling. We'd stay here again if we went back to the RSPB reserve.

There was no beer on! I am usually the driver when we go out so only have a soft drink or water but as we were staying it would have been lovely to have had a beer. I didn't want to have a bottle, or cider, or lager.

From the welcome on arrival to the goodbye on leaving everything was amazing. We stayed for one night and got allocated room 4, large comfy room with a sofa bed, tea and coffee facilities, large bathroom and a fan for use should the room be hot. Our room faced onto the Bear garden and wasn’t noisy neither was the main road. We ate dinner in the restaurant and we both had the Turkey dinner and it was lovely, huge portions and a great price, desserts were lovely and we had a couple of glasses of a very good Zinfandel, we were only going to have one glass 😂. We slept like logs in a very comfortable bed with good pillows. Breakfast the following morning was very good and mixture of self service and a cooked to order. Hubbie had the English breakfast and I had some lovely pancakes with fruit. Every staff member that we came into with was friendly and professional and they looked genuinely happy to be working there. Carparking was a little confusing but we were directed to the right part of the car park and machine for payment which you get back if having a meal however as we were staying the night we didn’t need to pay as you just give your registration number for inputting into the machine - what we had paid got taken off our meal bill

I have to admit, having not been to The Bear before, I expected a fairly average pub but I was very pleasantly surprised. The property, which is an old building on the main street in Street, is refurbished to a high standard and, although the staircases are a bit quirky, the public areas and my bedroom were spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The restaurant area is made up of a number of large connected rooms and the menu pricing is very reasonable with plenty of choices. The meals my daughter and I had were excellent. In particular, I would like to single out the staff. Every one we spoke to was pleasant and helpful. They made us feel very welcome. I would highly recommend The Bear.

Nothing in particular but the staircase to my room (No 9) was quite steep and I suspect anyone with walking difficulties would struggle to get up and down. I would recommend they advise the staff of this when booking and arrange to be allocated a room with easy access.
