Horse and Groom, Westbury in Wiltshire

Just back from a fabulous Christmas meal. The whole meal was beautiful, portions were very generous, everything cooked to perfection. Excellent value for money I would wholeheartedly recommend the horse and groom Westbury for your Christmas get together

Lovely little pub with fireplace, restaurant and garden area. Dog friendly.

Lovely b&b, lovely staff, not the easiest to get to, but walkable

Absolutely A1 service and setting. Food was amazing, good Portions and cooked perfectly, staff friendly and attentive. Expressing manners and a genuine happiness. Bar manager (chap with shaven head sorry didn’t get his name) was friendly and a genuinely nice chap. Food, cost and atmosphere cannot be faulted! Will definitely return! Keep up the good work!

Stayed overnight in the carpark in our campervan at this Britstops location. We have stayed several times before as it's convenient for us, quiet and friendly location. The added bonus you can eat a lovely meal in the pub. Friendly welcome, staff attentive, pub grub and a drink welcome after a busy day driving. Thank you! We will visit again!

Great BnB, comfortable, clean quiet. Lovely pub, best chips ever, nice breakfast too.

We went for Sunday Roast. I chose the 3 meat small plate and my partner had the beef. The service was very quick. They brought me a large plate so I didn’t complain but paid for the large one as it was already prepared. The vegetables were only carrots and cabbage, no others as shown in the pictures advertised. That was disappointing. The beef wasn’t great. The pork was a chop, not cut off a roast joint, and the turkey was similar. The Yorkshire was nice. The stuffing was an Aunt Bessie type item and the pig in blanket was small but tasty. The gravy was thin but tasty. All things considered the roast was a bit disappointing and expensive for what it was. Would prefer quality over quantity as the meat portions were large but not great tasting. Probably would not go back for a meal but certainly go back for drinks as the atmosphere is good.

Very pleasant little hideaway. Lovely food, served quickly by very polite and non I trust e staff. A good place to stop off

Lovely pleasant pub with atmospheric interior. Terrific and reasonably priced food. Fish in fish and chips met with mums approval, a rare thing and was cooked to perfection with lovely batter. Easy to find with good number of parking spaces. Definitely worth the stop, especially if passing back from the White Horse which is only about 3 mins away.

Lovely place to hang out with old friends

We were visiting friends who live in Westbury and they had booked a table for us all to have Sunday lunch. First of all the welcome we received was excellent, our food and drinks order was taken by a very attentive member of staff. Unfortunately what followed was not so great. My wife decided on the fish and chips and her meal was excellent and we couldn’t fault it.Unfortunately three of us selected the roast sirloin of beef, when it arrived it looked great pink how I like it but on trying to cut it, it was very rubbery. all three of us agreed it wasn’t satisfactory.The waitress suggested bringing us sharper knives, we said that it shouldn’t need this with which she took the food away to be cooked longer without asking if we would like to re select . As I have stated my wife’s meal was fine but she had to eat hers whilst we waited for ours to be cooked longer and she felt awkward eating whilst we waited for ours. When the food reappeared it looked overcooked my beef had curled, the roast parsnips looked boiled not roasted, the carrots were grey and hadn’t been topped and tailed. All three of us left the majority of our food and to be honest when we asked for the bill we weren’t charged for the three roast dinners having mentioned that we were disappointed with the quality. We did pay for my wife’s meal as I said was excellent. I know we weren’t charged for the meals that weren’t satisfactory and my wife’s meal was fine hence the review.

My Mum and I stayed here for one night and we were very happy for our stay. The accommodation is in a house just across the road from the pub, very easy to get to and good security. We had a very nice twin room, very comfortable a good sleep and a nice shower in the morning. Internet worked fine. We had an evening meal in the pub the night before, both enjoyed our meals and the pub atmosphere, and we had a good breakfast the following morning. Staff were friendly. We would recommend, and this will be our first choice for a place to stay the next time we are in the area.

Pros - Good size B&B room with friendly staff. Bed was comfortable. The property was overall very clean. Nice quiet location. Cons - Breakfast (including coffee) was below average and requires significant improvement towards taste. We had fish and chips the night before and they were also a letdown. Room was a bit warm as the table fan was not effective.

Stayed over a couple of days using the Brit Stops in our motorhome for a works function (BBQ), great food, brilliant service and can't recommend it highly enough, not just for a works BBQ (75 people) but also as a place to stay.

We had friends from London visiting, we had previously had a meal at H&G and as usual the food was very good, so we went for lunch again. We arrived at 1.15pm only to be told we couldn’t have food as they had a table of 8 men to cater for. This was very disappointing and a let down for our visitors, so we had to go elsewhere. We won’t be visiting again as this is the second time this has happened to us .

Arrived here for one night stay everything was fine ...room was a little dated and grubby in places dirty finger marks on the doors ...bed was comfy but pillows very thin what was advertised as a walk in shower was in fact a wet room with shall we say not the ambience one would like it was cold and mouldy in places and really needed updating towels not up to par soft and thick they were not ...Internet was iffy so tv kept going off losing picture ....then the next morning go for breakfast ....NO EGGS ...we ordered the full English which was pitiful and microwaved as no chef in the kitchen so one rubbery mushroom cut into four !!

Always a friendly welcome here, plenty of tables outdoors and a good selection of wine and beers.

Did not stay overnight but would love to at some point. Lovely place with fantastic food, very happy to come back again

Great little pub, Nice both inside and out

The place was quite busy when we went which sadly meant we were waiting to be helped for a while. But when helped staff were kind and friendly. The food was not special but not bad. It was a 3-4 star experience

We went as a family for lunch with a baby and was greeted with a smile, not many of them around in Westbury for some reason but we got one here! Lovely lunch and great cask beer from twisted brewery. Would definitely recommend.

Great English pub, with good food!

Great pub, with a nice selection of food and drinks. And a nice big garden

Lovely little spot that's easy to walk or drive to, good priced drinks and a wide selection. Food menu looked gorgeous, and we will return to sample it!

What a lovely pub and also bed and breakfast. The staff were so friendly, accommodation clean, spacious and very comfortable- bath tub especially excellent & lots of hot water. We really enjoyed our meals in the pub, we had 2 breakfasts, dinner (steak) and a Sunday roast which was *VERY* good indeed . Delicious food all round. We would recommend this as a lovely stay with a great atmosphere and staff couldn't do enough to make us feel welcome and well looked after. Thank you so much.

We're unable to comment on the rooms as we didn't stay in any of the rooms. The food and service, though, was very good and would recommend the Horse & Groom.

Lovely accommodation, friendly efficient staff and make you feel very welcome

When we got to the Horse & Groom, We were greeted and asked how we were? And what time we would like breakfast in the morning and after we were taken to the room we were going to stay in. He gave us the card with the tap in pin for both doors. We had a lovely stay and will be coming back again and would like to stay in the same room if possible.

I have been here for food a couple of times, when visiting family that live local. Nice food at a reasonable price.

Stopped for a drink after a run. Friendly pub with a wood burner

As soon as we walked into the pub we were looked after and made to feel welcome. My parents are both disabled and we were given space to put the mobility aids. The staff were courteous and efficient. The food was delicious. There were plenty of options for a pescatarian too - usually on a Sunday places only offer fish and chips as a fish option! My Dad had the sea bass which he thoroughly enjoyed. The roasts were excellent, a great choice of veg and extra gravy was brought out as soon as we requested it. It can be really hard to go out with our parents complex needs (dementia and Parkinson’s) but this is definitely somewhere we all felt included and we definitely would visit again.

Typical dinner in this pub a little far from the center of Westbury. Unwelcoming staff and very basic cuisine.

Dog friendly, wood burner, good food and drink!

Love this place. Proper locals pub. Landlady is lush. Service is quick. Place gets full up and busy quickly! No wonder, it's a brilliant pub! Great selection of drinks. Love it here

The food was nice, but the amount of veg let it down. Too little 😕🥕🥦

Had a fantastic stay at the BnB, the room was excellent and a very friendly and helpful member of staff showed us to our room. In the morning we had a fantastic breakfast and again the service was first class. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to visit the pub, hopefully next time we come!

Took my daughter for afternoon tea lovely vintage crockery so much food we had to bring doggy bags home. Very friendly defo recently good value at £18 per head.

Lovely little find! Friendly staff. Great food at a decent price, drinks were lovely. Outside area was cute to sit in with comfy chairs. Pub dog walking around which was nice. We would recommend!

Absolutely amazing food service and quality I would highly recommend the Horse and Groom please support local businesses

Io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo cenato in questo pub e ci siamo trovati benissimo! Io ordinato il salmone su un letto di insalata, pomodorini, fagiolini, patate bollite e uovo sodo(17£), mentre il mio ragazzo la coscia di agnello cotta nel vino, servita con purè e piselli(19£): entrambi i piatti erano abbondanti e molto buoni! Con acqua del rubinetto abbiamo speso 36£. Super consigliato!

Stayed in the B+B for 2 nights, in the family room. The room suited our needs and was thoughtfully stocked with bottles of water, biscuits, fruit shoots for the children, and plenty of tea and coffee. Being located away over the road from the pub, the room was quieter than most hotels I've stayed in. Although we only stayed for two nights, the room was restocked with clean towels and drinks etc. This was a pleasant surprise. Breakfast cooked by Jordan was a highlight. The menu had plenty of options and Jordan made sure the children had exactly what they wanted. Thank you!

Had not been here for 30 years -I wasn't disappointed. Had a lovely Tuesday lunch with friends in superb atmosphere. Staff were attentive and great choice of food. Wll go gain.

Really good food and lovely friendly staff nothing too much trouble, this is a lovely Pub with plenty of parking and outside space

Great customer service. Very welcoming, nothing too much trouble e.g. garlic mayo freshly made. Great food. Would highly recommend.

Great food and general vibe was spot on, unexpected stay but outlived expectations. Even if someone is travelling nearby and time permits drop in for a meal - great food

We stayed at the hotel for a family event, and it was lovely. Our room was spotlessly clean, and comfortable. Unfortunately, the evening we arrived, the kitchen was closed, but breakfast was freshly cooked, and very tasty. Their advertising says best pub for smiles, and it certainly is. Polite, friendly and cheerful staff, a credit to themselves. We would definitely stay here again.

After driving around looking for a pub that is open mid afternoon on a Saturday, Mum & I were delighted to find this one. While we waited for our meals, we were able to entertain ourselves with box quizzes which made a pleasant change, The photos & other visuals around the pub made it very interesting. The food we had was good from what i can remember. We certainly weren't bad mouthing the place. I would consider coming to this pub again as it is a short distance from my mothers home in Frome.

We stayed for just one night and it was lovely. The rooms were set away from the pub in a cottage just across the road. We were given a ground floor room which even came with its own garden . The wow factor was the bathroom with the spacious shower. The pub had a lovely cosy feel and the food was delicious as was the breakfast. We will definitely want to return in the warmer months.

Found the Horse and Groom on UK Pub Stopovers. The owners welcomed us in our Motorhome to stay in their carpark overnight. We did book beforehand just thought it best When we first walked into the pub that evening, we were greeted by the most friendly staff. Open fire, locals enjoying their evening making a lovely atmosphere. We had a really beautiful meal. The landlady Carol came over to introduce herself, which we thought a nice touch from a lovely lady. We met our family next day there for Sunday lunch, again absolutely delicious food and service. Highly recommended venue and will definitely be going back.

We went for some food and drinks with friends. It’s a nice place to go and have drinks, but considering what they charge for food, the quality isn’t there! Ordered a steak, as other two items I wanted they didn’t have. The peas were nuked, completely inedible. The steak was small (it still costs £17) you pay extra for sauce £3.50, for £20 I expect a good piece of meat. It was gristly, flavourless, and totally underwhelming. If you don’t have the quality there, bring your prices down to match it, it’s not fair to pay so much and be given such average food. Wouldn’t eat here again.

The Horse and Groom continues to be the best pub in Westbury - great beer, warm friendly atmosphere and always welcoming. A fantastic pub all year round with a lovely beer garden for the summer and welcoming log burner in the winter. A great place...

Enjoying a New Year break, we hadn't booked and turned up hoping to enjoy a Sunday Roast. They managed to fit us in, which we really appreciated and the food was amazing. If you are in the area book a table, well worth a visit.

You can always rely on the Horse and Groom for an excellent meal with great service. Our rugby Christmas dinner was no exception. Considering there were over 20 of us, the quality of the food and service was outstanding!

Just back from a very pleasant evening as a company of four at the H&G. Good food, good beer and really excellent staff - what more does anyone want? Second visit for dinner in the past few weeks plus a sneaky pint one lunchtime and not our last visit for sure.

We visited here the other week and were thrilled with how safe it felt. They had an automated temperature checker at the door!! How amazing!!The food was amazing and the atmosphere was incredible. Staff were lovely and kind and attentive. Thankyou for a lovely night.

Absolutely brilliant covid precautions in place. Temperature taken on entrance. The food was exceptional as was the service. This pub also offers 4 pint jugs of beer which saves you money. This I thought was a tremendous treat as not many places do this anymore.

Recommended this place by the owners of the local B&B we were staying in. We pre-booked. On entering we had our temperature taken and completed track and trace. We were seated at our table where we removed our face coverings. Very nice place. Really enjoyed the atmosphere. The staff were brilliant and the chef did an outstanding job. All of our meals were delicious, piping hot and very tasty. Highly recommend this place.

Came here for lunch on Saturday on arrival we were ushered to our table and told to quickly sit down (we were all wearing masks). Then a waitress came over to take our drinks order and do track and trace. We asked to see a food menu, she made a big deal about going to get it. She then returned and told us they had a big table arriving so wouldn’t be able to serve us food for an hour. The pub was very quiet and there is a restriction for a maximum Number of 6 people so either they were breaking the rules or their kitchen couldn’t handle more than 6 people. She was very patronising and rude when telling us this. We wouldn’t have minded if they told us at the start that we wouldn’t have been able to have food, as we wouldn’t have sat down and ordered drinks. We decided to leave as the service was so bad. Wouldn’t return here again.
