I had the pleasure of spending a Monday evening at The Firehouse in Curry Rivel, and I must say, its interior design fully lives up to the praise it receives. Every room is a feast for the eyes, brimming with charm and character that instantly puts you at ease. The warm atmosphere and inviting corners make it an ideal spot for winter dining, creating a cosy, seasonal vibe that encourages relaxation.
For dinner, I chose the “Glastonbury Tor” pizza, topped with roast chicken, basil pesto, and sunblushed tomatoes, and it was absolutely delicious. The service was impressively quick, with my stone-fired pizza arriving within 10 minutes of ordering. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the fresh, locally sourced ingredients really stood out, highlighting The Firehouse’s dedication to quality.
The Firehouse also boasts an impressive selection of fine wines, local ciders, and real ales. Whether you’re sinking into an armchair by a wood burner or watching the lively action around the pizza oven near the entrance, it’s a fantastic place to unwind and enjoy the best of Somerset. If you’re nearby, it’s a visit I highly recommend.
For those wanting to recreate The Firehouse experience at home, they offer “Pizza By Post Kits,” which can be ordered online. Simply place your order by 12 pm for next-day delivery (or a chosen date from Tuesday to Friday), and you’ll receive everything you need to craft their delicious pizzas at home. With pizzas named after local landmarks, you can enjoy making options like the Glastonbury Tor, Muchelney Mushroom, or Curry Rivel Calzone in your own kitchen.
