Cartgate Lodge Cafe - Yeovil

Such a Shame ! I have been coming to this cafe for over 30 years going back and forth to West Country, seen this cafe go from a 24hr stop with great honest food at a realistic price, over the years it has reduced it’s opening hour ( which I do understand due to cost ) but the food had gone down a little and prices have now risen which I think is now over priced, there are now more pre packed sandwiches and cakes which are pricey, I went in last week and asked for scrambled egg on brown toast to which I was told that they cannot do scrambled egg on Saturdays as they are to busy and only fried eggs were on offer, I went with the fried eggs and another plate of baked beans on toast, food arrived quickly on white toast, beans not really hot and fried eggs hard, two cups of tea and £15:00 later. Not great value. I think that in future if I want poor food with no real option I will go to the fast food chains that are increasingly available on the A303…please do not advertise that you can cater for individuals when you might be able to do that when it is not busy or is convenient for the business.

Amazing cafe, we’ve been bringing our DofE group here en route from Andover to Exmoor for years. Amazing food, quick service and incredible staff. A brilliant stopping point if you’re heading up or down the A303

Amazing place to stop. Friendly staff and great service. Lots of space to sit down and eat or have a nice coffee. Clean toilets and homemade food. Lovely big outside area for picnics or to just to stretch ur legs

I do feel as u drive in the place needs some sort of a way to slow the speed of the cars down. Twice today 2 different cars drove past us at great speed this is totally unacceptable as we are in a car park. U need to sort this out sooner rather than later

Disclaimer - this is not a review about the food, we have no issues with that.

Have stopped here for many years as its a great place to walk the dogs and have a break.

They've been updating the toilets for several months and finally got to see them recently. All I can say is they are horrible now. They are dirty, no paper, no soap in the washers. They were a little tired but were always spotless. I'm guessing they no longer employ someone to look after them during the day.

A convenient stop off, plenty of parking. Spacious cafe serving very good, reasonably priced food served extremely quickly. I can recommend the Small Breakfast 😋
