No sign of a pub here anymore. Assume the new-build housing has replaced it.

I believe this place has now been demolished and is now houses but please correct me if i am wrong.
Never got to visit this pub and judging by the positive reviews and camra gbg entry i am suprised to see the pub gone.
I guess that there is more money in property than there is pub these days.
What are we all gonna do when all the pubs are gone?
Stay indoors and go on twitter all evening?
Farewell to another boozer

Shut pending the planning application to knock it down and build houses - another boozer bites the dust

Well finally popped in for a quick pint, whilst driving through the area. A very warm welcome and a free selection of nibbles provided by the various locals I believe.
Tried the Goats Leap very nice indeed, the locals drinking a variety of real ales, all of which were on.
A real alers paradise i think, well at least 30 people in there when I left,not bad for a Sunday afternoon.
Will be back.......

Looked forward to returning after sampling a few well kept ales previously, atmos the, was spoilt only by the poor sod of a parrot kept prisoner in the bar. anyway, disappointed on return visit, had two pints of very cloudy RCH, had been told before that the brewer of said beer often drinks in there. would have been nice to have met him.

Popped in here for a couple of pints after the speedway, very friendly owners and locals, well kept real ales at good prices only pub i saw down somerset and cornwall that prices ales by abv. Excellent local will certainly visit again when in area.

Called in while driving home from a meeting, as I knew this is a good place. 7 beers were on, but as I was driving could only sample one. Very friendly, and good beer range and quality. Looks as if another visit is needed, obviously by bus!
|
Totally beautiful pint of Thwaites "Blueberry Thrill" was soon demolished here, three other interesting ales were available. Sadly dead though for a sunday afternoon :( GO VISIT I TELL THEE!!! 8/10
|
Visited as part of CAMRA passport "crawl".
3 ales on, a bit cloudy, lighting inside very low - looked like a pub on the downward slide, cutting all possible costs - this bloody recession is getting everyone.
|
They had 8 pumps, and 6 different ales on when I was in there. The landlord and other customers are a friendly lot too. There's not much you can ask of a pub.

Not much to add to the review below. The best pub for miles.And Miles.(my name)

Popped in here today after a walk on the beach at Burnham. As usual the beers were superb and the welcome from customers and staff exceedingly friendly. I can't add much more to the other two reviews except to say that this is also a dog friendly pub (a bowl of water was gratefully received by our two dogs), it is open all day (including Sundays), there is a bus stop right outside (it is on the Taunton-Burnham route) or you can take the train (it's about a ten minute walk from Highbridge station). The best pub in the area by far!

Its difficult to review this pub without sounding over-sentimental about my local, so I'll be sticking to the facts here. The Royal Artillery is a small, single room pub with a skittle alley, easily reached by public transport and situated somewhere between West Huntspill and Highbridge depending on your opinions and allegiances. With a total of eight handpumps, there are rarely fewer than six perfectly kept real ales on offer. These are often drawn from local suppliers such as Moor, Cotleigh and Cheddar Ales - and there are of course always excellent RCH offerings to be had with Double Header a regular beer. Two Thatchers Ciders are also on offer, as well as frequent local guest ciders. Well cooked and generous bar meals are also to be had at reasonable prices. The building is undergoing a lengthy refurbishment to correct many years of neglect, but this doesn't detract from an excellent atmosphere at the bar or the chance for a quiet pint in the lounge area - both of which share a wood-burning stove. Service is always good, and prices are reasonable for the area. Well worth a visit.
