About The Wheelhouse Restaurant

Handy to know if you're staying nearby and the holiday-park food has worn thin — this 1925 building on Minehead's main drag turns out proper home-cooked restaurant meals, and children are genuinely welcome rather than tolerated. Families with three young ones in tow have been seated without booking, though a group of 14 managed it too by ringing ahead, which is the sensible move at weekends. High chairs and a kids' menu that parents actually rate, plus buggy access and outdoor seating. Food comes out quickly — useful when patience is thinning — and the roast beef, lamb shank, scampi and 10oz gammon all get raved about, with bread and butter pudding worth saving room for. Prices strike people as reasonable. One snag: parking is on-street nearby and can be tricky around teatime.
