A proper cocktail bar on Bridge Street where the drinks are taken seriously and the atmosphere actually feels like somewhere you want to linger.

Walk into Moonshine and you'll clock immediately why it's got such strong ratings—this is Bridge Street doing cocktails properly, without any pretension about it. The sort of place where you can ask the bartender what they'd recommend and actually get something interesting rather than a menu recitation. It's become something of a focal point for anyone in Taunton who wants a proper night out that doesn't involve the usual town centre circuit. The crowd's mixed, genuinely, from early evening drinkers to groups out for proper Saturday nights.
