Breakfast & Brunch in Wells

Looking for breakfast in Wells? The Pressoir serves breakfast and brunch every morning from 9am, tucked into Heritage Courtyard just a few steps from Wells Cathedral. It's a warm, greenery-filled spot for a proper start to the day, whether that's eggs and coffee before a wander round the Market Place, or a slow weekend brunch.

Breakfast served every morning

Breakfast runs from 9am to 11.30am, Monday to Saturday. One thing locals appreciate: we're open on Mondays, when a lot of Wells kitchens are closed. Everything is cooked to order by our chef Daniel, who has more than twenty years' cooking rooted in Wells, using seasonal ingredients and local produce.

What's on the breakfast menu

A few of the dishes people come back for:

  • The big breakfast - local smoked bacon, butcher's sausages, black pudding, free-range fried eggs, roasted tomatoes, sauté mushrooms, sauté potatoes and granary toast. £13.50
  • Eggs benedict, florentine or royale - two free-range poached eggs on a toasted muffin with hollandaise. From £10.00
  • Smoked salmon & scrambled egg - free-range egg on granary toast. £9.50
  • Vegetarian breakfast - pan-fried halloumi, spinach, fried eggs, roasted tomatoes, mushrooms, sauté potatoes, granary toast. £11.50

Coffee, tea and homemade cake

Our baristas make what more than a few guests reckon is the best coffee in Wells, espresso, flat white, cappuccino and the rest, alongside a range of loose-leaf teas and a counter of homemade cakes. Perfect on its own if you're just after a coffee and a sit-down.
