If the staff always greet you with a smile and knows exactly what you want before you do, then these were the businesses we were looking for when it came to the Customer Service Award

The Somerset Life Food & Drink Awards is one of the biggest events in the local calendar and it is hugely anticipated by the region's food and drink industry all year round.

We champion the he good and the great from the region's food & drink industry including local producers & suppliers, small farming businesses, chefs, restaurants, pubs and hoteliers, and people who care about the countryside and the future of our local environment.

Nothing makes a business stand out more than excellent customer service, no matter the size of the company. It could be a maitre d', a hotelier or the person serving behind the cheese counter at the deli. If he or she always greets you with a smile and knows exactly what you want before you do, then these were the businesses we were looking for.

Thanks to both the nominations of the public and our well-respected judges, we have picked a winner worthy of the 'Customer Service Award', sponsored by Ston Easton Park.
