The Maypole Inn is actually situated in the quiet country village of Adsborough, Somerset. Dating back to 1880, the Maypole Inn serves a wide range of local ales, wines and soft drinks. The food produced at The Maypole uses locally sourced produce when possible and has a team of 3 chefs. With only a few exceptions all the food produced comes from within the pub kitchen, even the bread!

The Maypole Inn prides itself in serving traditional English food and, wherever possible, use locally produced Somerset meat and seasonal vegetables. We serve good quality food, in a local pub, and care a great deal about service and customer satisfaction. We also have a good following for our beers. Our real ales are always changing and are supplied from both the large brewery's and the local micro-brewery's. 

Over the past few years, the Maypole Inn has established itself as a warm, friendly and accommodating family pub and restaurant. For the children, we have swings and a massive sand pit, and there are always things to play with in the garden. We also have a children's menu, written by our own children, so you can get dippy eggs with soldiers or even a kids plough mans or any half portions from our main menu too!

The Maypole Inn is open Monday to Saturday 12 noon until 3pm and 6pm until close, and Sunday from 12 noon until 3pm. (opening times may change due to business needs)

ABOUT THE MAYPOLE INN Originally named the Star Inn, the Maypole Inn dates back to 1880, when it was under the ownership of William Day. The Star Inn was originally a Cider House and remained so until the mid 1970's when The Green Dragon, the Public house in Thurloxton, closed. The pub remained The Star until the mid 1990's, when the name was changed to The Maypole Inn.

MENUS The Maypole Inn offers patrons a selection of light meals, a fine buffet and the traditional English pub favorites. Our favorites include free-range belly pork and Braised Shoulder of Somerset Lamb. We also have a children's menu, written by our own children, so you can get dippy eggs with soldiers or any half portions - when possible.
