Glastonbury has a wonderful choice of cafes and a good choice of pubs but when it comes to restaurants the choice is smaller.
For this article I looked at over 7000 reviews online (October 2024) to see which restaurant has the best ratings overall and the winner is…….
The Queen of Cups is a 17th century coaching inn, turned modern Middle Eastern restaurant with skilfully and uniquely curated sharing plates created by the talented Executive Chef and founder Ayesha Kalaji. Since its launch in 2021 the restaurant has won the following awards:
