    The Sheep and Penguin is a great place to eat and drink. The staff are amazing, the food is terrific. A Sunday roast at the S&P is outstanding. We really appreciate this pub. We regularly visit with friends and family.

    The food was absolutely gorgeous, without a doubt the best meal we've both eaten out for a very long time, generous portions and very very tasty. Service was prompt with the staff being very friendly and helpful suggesting what to eat and drink. Overall an excellent experience and we'll definitely be returning if we're in Wells again.
