Now reopen from April 2013 :) to a great local sigh of relief and yelp of joy. The pub is relaxed, smartened up and offering 5 real ales and great food again. The Mandeville is well known and liked by those who have lived around here for any time. I think its going to get busy.

Closed down and looking overgrown now.
This is a great little part of Somerset but with the fabulous Royal Oak just down the road it is hard to see that any brave soul would dare take it on in this pub climate.

Closed (closed down) not sure if it will ever open as a pub again, the owners should be ashamed; it could be a great pub under the proper management.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news ... but I was there on Friday 3rd February 2012, and I can confirm that it definitely CLOSED.
All the furniture and some Bar fittings and equipment have been removed. We were there actually buying some of the pub's items.

Went past here yesterday lunchtime, but it didn't appear to be open.

this is a wonderful place to spend some of your time, i regularly travel 2-3 miles to get there passing many pubs on the way
because quite frankly its the best pub i've come across in a very long time and well worth a visit , a great selection of beers & ciders and guarenteed a fantastic welcome

Went there on Saturday with two friends. Lovely place and friendly staff but after that it was downhill all the way. Should have guessed by lack of customers on a Saturday night ! Firstly they had run out of draught cider (a must for a Somerset pub). Meal choice was very limited, about half of what was offered on the printed menu outside the door. Three of us chose rabbit to be then told they had run out of this - rather strange as we were the first diners that evening. There followed a passable meal of pub fare but at inflated restaurant prices. When we came to pay we were told that the card machine was out of action and had been for some time. Fortunately, our friends had enough cash and I had thought to bring my cheque book. However, I would have thought it would have been a good idea to warn me when I originally booked, or to at least mention it when we arrived. I have a feeling that there is definitely something wrong here.

We went there on a friday night at the end of june and you couldn't have got another human being in the place. They seem to do lots of events. I think its really good value...under �7 quid for a meal and a drink plus a summer menu with lots of choice. �2.70 for a pint hardly expensive.

Now re-opened under new management. We called in early on a Wednesday evening and were the only customers (halfway through our drinks, we were the only people in the pub as the landlady went to sit outside in the sun). Tired of waiting to get served a second pint, we left. Shame because the Moor Beer Company's 'Revival' wasn't at all bad. The menu looked comprehensive and good value but the drinks were, I felt, badly overpriced - we're in the depths of Somerset here, not London! We then drove to nearby Sonny's in Hardington Moor, but it was so packed we couldn't get in - that tells you something.

Closed, seemingly for a refurb of some sort.
