The Market House Inn, Glastonbury

THIS REALLY IS THE BEST PLACE TO VISIT IN GLASTONBURY.
OTTER ON TAP, SPECKLED HEN & OLD PECULIER IN BOTTLES. They seem to like to ring the changes with the ales, and they are always well presented. We enjoyed our drinks in the garden, which is coming into bloom nicely. We timed our visits (yes ~ we liked it so much we went twice) to coincide with the two free bbqs, so it was fabulous to sit with good company, eating good food and enjoy the weather.
The garden gets all the sun during the day (as long as it�s shining!) and the covered area is large enough to make the odd April/May shower inconsequential.
Staff still very friendly and clearly enjoy working in such a pleasant environment.
Every time we visit we mean to try some of the neighboring establishments but why bother when Market House is so good and the drinks are very very good value. The football machine is great fun. SO FOR THE PEOPLE INTERESTED IN GOOD BEER/ALE/DRINKS IN GOOD SURROUNDINGS THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE!!

And for �hoonkerama� and his other �self�, �proboozer� ~ do brush up on your reading skills, (0/10 for comprehension) the harpies were �prevented from entering� QED there weren�t and aren�t any anti- social people allowed into the premise.
And as a balanced view is always best please see some of the previous reviews

�well - it just gets better. Market House, you did it again.
What a way to celebrate St George's Day. Free BBQ and all drink as usual excellent quality and cheap!!!!!.
Fabulous night, we all enjoyed ourselves. I'll check out the photos on facebook
If you are thinking of visiting Glastonbury you have to make the Market House your first port of call. I've never been disappointed.� m_souris

Called in as we were in area again.
Ale excellent and dry blackthorn back. Staff still friendly.
Recliners in garden are useful addition. The special offer on spirits (�1.00 a shot) makes the odd g&t more enjoyable and the Pimms was perfect.

This is very good place to visit when in Glastonbury. We were going to do a mini crawl but the chairs were too comfortable and the company too friendly but perhaps next time�.

Thanks for including us in �The Market House Inn Glastonbury� Facebook photos
What a great idea for the summer.

I thoroughly approve of the new artwork in the Men�s w.c. Having been on the receiving end of one of the miscreants comments, both public and private, I concede that the direct approach is the best. I have perfected my aim, and what a relief!!

We will visit again asap and recommend this to anyone wanting a good place to visit in Glastonbury. dan champion
Had to stop by on Sunday to taste the free bbq, which was splendid. The dry blackthorn was excellent and good value at �2.50 a pint.
Look at their Facebook page and see all the happy pinters ... oops punters
Good food, good drink and good company.
Lets hope the weather holds and they can repeat this on St George's Day April 23rd.

Good beer - Adnams Bitter faultless.
Good cider - Thatchers gold perfect & old style Blackthorn returning soon
All spirits �1 a shot???
can't remember when I last got a round of 4 drinks for under �10.00!!
Good selection of teas - 98P!! roibosch included & soya milk -- it is Glastonbury and it helps when you have an aged tea-total parent in tow.
Disabled loo clean
carpark OK
large garden, nice, interesting mural anywhere with the sun shining is good after last winter.
Only downside was bad language (a la Gordon Ramsey) of some other customers
Staff asked them to tone it down � successfully (and I suppose we hear worse on TV but aged parent not deaf yet)
Love those prices
Will visit again next time we're in Somerset

Excellent ale; Adnam's Broadside on tap, well presented and perfect temperature. Good price at �2.50pint - April special offer, so staff advised me not to expect it always to be this cheap.
Nice garden, part covered and safe place for bikes.
Staff very helpful and knew their stuff about real ales although shame there was only one on tap. My companions enjoyed their lagers and extra cold Guinness, all well served, manager obviously takes good care of their lines.
Main building clean and comfortable, but plain furniture, but then this is an Enterprise Inn, and anyone knows how they cripple their tenants with excessive rents and high beer prices.
WCs clean and well disinfected.
They do rooms at reasonable prices but kitchen not open yet for season - staff say its because of the recession and as we settled for the snacks I can understand
Passable, and fresh made cheese and tomato sandwiches, went down well before we pedelled off to Wells.
If you visit; sign their petition to end the Beer Tie!! then perhaps everyone can resume selling ale at �2.50/pt
Definately worth a re-visit and am planning a crawl as there appears to be other good pubs within easy stroll/pedel in the Town centre, so watch this space......

I still love the artwork & just like Danchampion, have perfected my aim, but seem be mysteriously drawn to 'koonherama' - what a cunning stunt !!
