Achieving 40 years in the catering industry is no mean feat in a competitive market, and Rugantinos at the Ancient Gatehouse Hotel has celebrated its birthday with a refurbishment, to ensure the restaurant’s appearance and ambience matches the high quality of its food.

Francesco Rossi started Rugantinos restaurant in Wells 40 years ago, and today it is run by his two sons, Jon and Nick, who continue to offer a delicious menu of classic, homemade italian cuisine.

“It’s a new direction and a breath of fresh air, we have managed to revitalise the restaurant and the menu while retaining the original spirit of the business,” says Jon.
“We wanted to keep some familiarity for regular customers but also offer something new and exciting for the people of Somerset.”
