Black Bear Pub Group is an independent, family-run group of Somerset pubs with our own micro-brewery at our centre. We believe that good pubs are largely about the people involved, from our fab local suppliers and staff to the customers… pubs are places where people from all walks of life can come together and enjoy an eclectic social scene.
We focus on good food created by talented chefs using as much local produce as possible, with well-kept beers, hand-picked wines, and a vibrant atmosphere. All our venues are unique, with their own food offerings, décor, and clientele. We aim to serve the communities in which they each sit by hosting events and fundraising and making them accessible to all. Most importantly, they all remain true to what they are — good, local pubs!
The White Horse, Bradford on Tone offers warm hospitality, exceptional seafood by our talented kitchen team, comforting pub classics and a welcoming service, led by Amanda’s friendly team.
The Carew Arms is the beating soul of Crowcombe. A true Country pub… Serving incredible food, friendly banter and a proper heartfelt hospitality!
The Royal Oak, Hillcommon is bursting with energy… Where Marcin’s culinary wizardry meets a team who are filled with passion and energy! We pride ourselves in your experience.
The Bear Inn captures everything Wiveliscombe stands for… Lively, Welcoming & full of charm. From the bustling bar to the spacious garden, It’s a pub that just works and that’s why we love it!
