Cosy Club

You'll find Cosy Club tucked into Hunts Court, just off Corporation Street in the heart of town—a proper Taunton institution in a gorgeous Victorian building. It's the kind of place that works whether you're after breakfast, lunch, or something stronger in the evening. The interior's all exposed brick and period features done up without feeling try-hard, and there's genuine warmth to the service that makes you want to linger over a second drink or dessert. The menu reads like proper comfort food with ambition: think seasonal British cooking that doesn't overcomplicate things, alongside cocktails that actually know what they're doing. It's become the spot locals drift towards when they want somewhere that feels a cut above, but doesn't demand you dress up or book months ahead.
