Visited Jacks/House of Bun for the first time on Sunday with my son (who has been there before to sample the outstanding House of Buns burgers, in fact he brought one home for me on the Saturday evening and it was so, so good) and enjoyed a scrumptious roast beef with all the trimmings, thank you chef Josh West (House of Buns)! Thank you also to the amazing Front of House team who worked like a customer focused, friendly and efficient machine under the direction of the highly professional and charismatic Brazilian Shift Leader, Julia! Our waitress Kiki was lovely too! Thank you Jacks/House of Buns and look forward to visiting you again soon.

Enjoyed a wonderful Sunday lunch today at Jacks/House of Bun. The most delicious food, thank you Josh (House of Bun) as always! Service by Kiki and others was outstanding, attentive whilst not intrusive, overseen by the highly professional, experienced, friendly and beautiful Brazilian shift leader, Julie! Thank you everyone for looking after us so well 😊

To say I was disappointed is an understatement. I've been a semi-regular visitor to Jacks over the years, mostly going there for breakfast as a little treat. It's always busy and the food is good. Anyway, today I went there and ordered my go-to avocado and poached eggs on toast and the portion size has literally halved! What used to be 2 slices of toast is now one, and it wasn't served with the courgette/pepper accompaniment as it used to be. Not worth the £8 I paid for it. Bad decision and one which will lose you loyal customers who feel cheated.

Since the new owners took over and brought in two incredible chefs, this place has completely transformed! I recently had the best roast dinner I’ve ever tasted here. The meat was cooked to perfection, the vegetables were fresh and flavorful, and the gravy was rich and delicious. Everything was beautifully presented, and you can really tell the chefs put a lot of care into every detail. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, you have to try their roast – it’s an absolute game-changer! Definitely my new go-to spot for Sunday dinner.

Came in here Saturday morning today 27/07 for breakfast got sat down one table was already there and the other came after I had been giving a menu two tables were served first bare in mind both tables were white people and I’m a black young man I have been here before and service was alright . Pls tell me why I was waiting over 20 minutes still no one came to the table . No drink order first or even food . I got angry and went to the till to complain bare in mind I was happy and fine when I came in just to leave angry and not wanting any food since they didn’t want to come to the table . Shocking but no problem I won’t go there again if I’m not wanted

On our way to Cotswold we were starving, so had to stop by Swindon high street for a quick bite. It was 3pm on a weekday so most of the restaurants and pubs were not open. This place was our only choice, but turned out to be nice. A bit untidy, but the food was okay and the portion was also good considering the price.

My friend and I both got food poisoning 48 hours after eating the afternoon tea set in December. Serious diarrhea, dizziness, cold sweat. I almost fainted. We lost appetite for one month. I wrote an email to the restaurant. They didn't admit or apologize. Instead, they implied that my friend and I carried the bacteria before coming to the restaurant. I was furious and wanted to write a review but my friend asked me not to do it as it would be useless. Today I walked by the restaurant again. Bad memory popped up. I hope no one will get food poisoning and be accused of carrying bacteria anymore.

What is this place Jesus I’ve never felt so uncomfortable in a place to have lunch, walked into an empty restaurant and was told she’s check is there is any tables first. Then was sat down at a dirty table with food on it and just left, another few people came in sat down drinks order and food order taken there and then. We were still waiting for someone to come and take our order. I went to the bar to ask for some drinks was told to go back to the table. A waitress then came to our table and said she’s not sure how many orders have gone to the kitchen so she needs to check don’t think this places knows what they are doing. Felt really sorry for the young girl they just thrown at us as she’s lovely just the rest of the girls are self obnoxious. Especially the one in glasses she is rude as hell and I’m sick of the side eye. The food was lovely, it’s just a shame the service is a let down. This place only has 1 great member of staff

We decided to treat our teens to brunch as it was the beginning of the holidays. The food, on the whole was well cooked and tasty and the menu offers a good selection of brunch dishes. The main issue was that I found a short very dark hair in my smashed avocado on toast with bacon and as none of us have hair that dark I knew it wasn't ours. I tried to get the attention of the waiting staff a few times (young tall waiter and older short dark haired woman) but eventually took my plate and went over to them. I showed the lady the hair and she immediately took the plate out of my hands amd walked away but didn't say anything at all. She came over to our table about 5 mins later to tell me the chef was making me a new one. Everyone else had already finished by this point and my daughter had rehearsals that we needed to get her to. This meant I would not have time to eat the replacement by the time I came out nor did I want to when everyone else had completely finished eating and drinking. I explained this and the waitress agreed to do it to takeaway but it would have been nice to have had this conversation before hand rather than just being told what was happening afterwards. My portion came well wrapped so I took it, we paid and left. When we got home, unsurprisingly it was not as nice, the poached eggs were solid and the toast soggy most annoying was that the bacon I had paid extra for and had eaten less than half of one rasher of was not in the box despite us still paying for it. There are so many other solutions that I would have been far more happy with (paying half as I had eaten some, having something much quicker to make such as just toast or banana bread instead), being made a replacement half that I might have been able to eat quickly but nothing was discussed at all, just my plate snatched without a word and then being told a new one would be bought. We all purchased drinks but also had to ask 3 times for some water. Most of the food was great but we would not return due to the service issues and paying for something we didn't get.

We booked a large table for afternoon tea at jack's for a friend's babyshower. Sadly disappointed in the quality. Sandwiches, the bread was stale so had clearly been sat out a while. No sausage rolls even though they were on the menu. As a baker I was saddened by what was apparently fruit scones, no rise and dry as ghandis flip flops. The waitress, painfully rude, we were rushed to pay and vacate the premises when my friend was still opening her gifts. They even turned the lights off, we hadn't even been over the 4pm finish more than a few minutes. May I suggest if you need to do a quick turn around for the evening don't take large bookings that are set up in the middle of the main restaurant. It's not a nice feeling being practically booted out of somewhere when you aren't causing any problem!

Visited for lunch today- the food was pretty tasty, but will not be rushing back due to the poor service. It was quite busy, but not full, and someone came to take our order before we'd even been given menus. We ordered drinks and got menus - despite being asked if we wanted ice in the drinks, one had ice when we'd asked for no ice. Not a deal breaker. We were then told there would be a bit of a wait for food, but not given any indication of how long. So we ordered, and an hour and a quarter later, our food finally arrived. It was tasty and hot, it really shouldn't take over an hour to prepare a sandwich and fries for 2 people! At least one party waiting for their orders got up and left during that time, and numerous customers had to go and ask where their orders were. Why have so many covers when the kitchen clearly can't handle that many orders? When we went to pay, we were greeted at the till in a fairly aggressive manner with "I hope you've got cash, cos the card machine's gone down". Quick trip to the cashpoint a few doors down, we returned to be told 'oh you can pay by card now, the machine is back up". Attitude of the staff wasn't great, they all just appeared flustered and came across as a bit snappy and rude. Felt a bit sorry for them as they were clearly trying, but the kitchen just couldn't cope. Very disappointing.

Definitely not somewhere I’d ever recommend again. Food and drinks are fine, breakfasts that I’ve had here before were very good. Sandwiches on this occasion had been hanging around for a while. The service… younger ladies were good, very attentive. Older lady with short hair should have been working at Karen’s diner, not Jacks. I have never been more poorly treated in a restaurant. I brought friends here and it was embarrassing to have been treated so badly. Having a receipt wagged in my face 1 hr 10 mins into our visit when we had the table for over 2 hours. Continually reminded of our time left at the table (every 10-15 minutes) with a finger tapping on her watch. Making a couple of members of my party, including me feel very uncomfortable. A couple of people didn’t turn up which is normal in a large group but she point blank refused to budge on the deposit I paid months earlier. Very reluctant to give us any extras. Couldn’t recommend LESS.

Jacks was chosen for a belated Christmas event with good friends and I must say one member of staff would be better suited working for Karen's diner!! She was abrupt and quite frankly rude! Unfortunately a few members of our party couldn't make it and I understand that was last minute and we would have to pay for the ones that hadn't made it but she was very reluctant to give us any extra food considering we were still paying for it and had been made up already! You could tell the sandwiches were dry around the edges apart from the sandwiches the food was OK and it wouldn't of worried us ultimately we were there to spend time with friends but the staff member really would be better off working in the different industry! It is a real shame because the other waitresses were fab and it was just this one older lady who rushed us through and clearly didn't want us there. We had pre booked this well in advance and they were quite aware of a big party coming in, and it felt that this waitress we named Karen had, had a very long day and should of gone home!

The place in general is great, food and drink is absolutely fine, all of the staff bar one are lovely. That one woman, short grey hair, older lady, ruined the whole thing with how rude she was. Zero customer care and zero manners. When you bring in a large group who can bring in a large amount of income and recommendations for the business, receiving such an abysmal level of care is embarrassing and damaging for what is a great place. Speaking to other members of staff(who are fantastic) this was a common theme. 100% go here, but if you see her, RUN!

Stopped for lunch at this popular restaurant/bar/cafe. Really busy yet they managed to find us a table so I would recommend booking in advance. Coffees and teas ordered whilst we perused the menu. The chicken salad was tasty, with a decent amount of chicken and also bacon, the omelette was plentiful and packed with filling and the ciabatta and fries again didn’t skimp on the filling. Really nice staff, well decorated and we all enjoyed it and would return again for lunch. 👍🏼☕️

A table was booked for 11/12 of us for the “Afternoon Tea” which was a work occasion. The food was grand, reasonably priced and the venue was lovely. I was just shocked at how we were spoken to by the waitress. Unprovoked. Genuinely, did not feel welcome there at all. She demanded payment half way through which was not only strange but also very uncomfortable. An experience…. But not a pleasant one when people are just trying to get together and enjoy themselves. Sorry to write this but maybe they were having a bad day.

Very racist and unprofessional. I've been in here to eat around 4 times, the 3rd time I started to realise fully the treatment was different to other Caucasian customers. I was noticing patterns before, on other occasions but I thought I was just over thinking it. When I do eat here solo, I'm usually ordering drinks and a proper meal and sides and spending more than some, that only comes in for coffee or a glass of wine. How dare you, just look at a person and assume what their pockets can affords. Everytime I'm in here, eyes are on me to see if I will pay my bill and someone standing nearby. I've never given the staff any reason to doubt me. I will even tip at the end just make you realise you were wasting your time standing around me. Very disgusted by the behaviour of their staff members not to mention the elderly lady working there who is rude and obnoxious. The chef is very understanding and kind and the young man working at the bar that's the most I can say. How can you put a customer at a dirty table to sit, when there were obviously other clean tables available and when ask to clean the table which 2 customers just left, you're going to be rude. I'm a paying customer and surely not an animal to be treated in such manner. It's really ashame because the breakfast range is lovely, but the attitude towards other race is shockingly disturbing.

We went for afternoon tea on 30th September. When we got to our table, it was set for 7 people but there were only 2 stands. When my niece had booked it, she said it was for 7 people and it was Flo who had spoken on the phone to my niece. Flo kept saying you must have booked it wrong. Flo didn't look happy as she needed to get another vegetarian stand. Then we asked if we could have some tea. Flo was a bit abrupt with us and said it was Gin day and we hadn't booked any teas. When my niece had booked she wasn't told that she would have to book tea as she thought it was afternoon tea so you would get tea. Anyway Flo did bring 2 pots of tea and the other vegetarian stand after about 15mins. We did enjoy the food, although my niece asked if there were any plain scones as her 2 daughters didn't like the scones with currents. Flo sat down next to my great neice who is 14 and said we were stressing her out. They didn't have any plain scones. After about half an hour my sister wasn't feeling too well, so I put my hand up to get Flo's attention. She came over and said 'What Now', which we thought was a bit rude as we were paying customers. She brought the water, but the glass was not very clean. My sister just took a sip but didn't want to say anything about the glass incase Flo would moan. It was my sister's 70th birthday afternoon tea, but we didn't find the service given by Flo very good. The young ones were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble as I had asked for some sugar and they were very obliging. We came from Milton Keynes but we won't be going there again.

I visited Jack's cafe recently and had a fantastic experience. The standout for me was their burger; it was absolutely delicious. Cooked to perfection with a juicy patty and fresh toppings, it left me craving for more. The chiabata sandwich was also a hit, filled with flavorful ingredients that made every bite enjoyable. What impressed me just as much as the food was the friendly and welcoming staff. They went out of their way to make sure my visit was comfortable and enjoyable. It's not always easy to find such great customer service, so this was a pleasant surprise. To top it off, Jack's cafe offers good prices, making it an excellent value for the quality of food and service you receive. It's refreshing to find a place that doesn't break the bank but still delivers top-notch flavors. Overall, I highly recommend Jack's cafe. Whether you're in the mood for a mouthwatering burger, a tasty chiabata, or simply a warm and inviting atmosphere, you won't be disappointed.

My future wife and I went for some lunch today, staff were all very friendly, restaurant not too busy and we were sat down and drinks order taken shortly after seating and then food. There was a fair old wait for the food (especially as it didn't seem so busy), I ordered a burger which was nice enough, my future wife ordered a quinoa salad, I don't eat salad but it was honestly the most appetising salad I've ever seen, she said it was very tasty. Very reasonably priced, the bill/payment took quite a while at the end of the meal too, so if you're not in a rush then would definitely recommend and we will be coming back

I had travelled from France and was visiting friends in Swindon for lunch on a Saturday. They booked Jack's and I was really looking forward to having a good catch up. How disappointed was I. We arrived on time for our table and sat down, the waitress gave us the menus and was back within a couple of minutes to ask for our choices. We had hardly said hello to each other. She was back and we hurriedly ordered cake and tea and one of us ordered a baked potato and coke. The tea and cake arrived in 5 minutes, we had to ask twice for the coke and after 25 minutes asked if the baked potato was on it's way. My friend who finally received her baked potato said it was ok. However the cake we had was so dry I couldn't finish it. I mentioned to the waiter and was surprised by his response "oh, yeah, they were the last 2 slices so probably left out for a while and maybe a bit stale" - no apology or I'll take something off the bill etc. Then we were abruptly asked to leave as they wanted the table to clean for the next booking. With all the chasing up and interruptions we had little time to talk to each other. So unwelcoming, poor service and the food really wasn't up to much. Personally, I don't recommend the venue at all. Huge disappointment.

Spent a lovely Sunday lunchtime here today with my friend. It was an early Birthday meet up. The service was very polite and friendly by 'Gregory'. Not sure if that is the correct name, but it was on the receipt! We felt nice and relaxed, not rushed, even though it was getting busier before we left. The food was great: roast dinner and chocolate brownie for dessert. Good portion sizes and well presented. Everywhere was kept clean and tidy. Highly recommended, and will definitely go back again. Well done 'Jack's'

Food was great and loving the new decor. Just a shame about the service. They were proper busy and only had one waitress taking orders, as we were given a table off to the side other tables that came in after us got order taken first. 30 mins for order to be taken and then another 20 mins before we got our drinks, not to mention the wait time for the food. If they had more staff I would rate higher!

The quality of the breakfast is outstanding. I have not tasted breakfast like it. I have been several times, and I would not hesitate to recommend to friends and family.

It is somewhat unexpected to be treated with care and courtesy in restaurants nowadays. Personnel here is really welcoming and nice. They greet you when you enter and are listening to you when you make the orders. I was there with part if the training team for a MET couse at Core Elements, trainer included. And albeit we had only 1 hour break, everything went smoothly and we were in the class in time and full. Loved the food too, many choices from typical pub to international cuisine for affordable prices. Highly recommended 👌

Went in for a coffee, shown to a table then completely ignored. The lady went to get an order from people at table next to us and completely ignored me so walked out Not happy 😫

Nice decor inside, nice tasting food presented well. Old waitress or manageress very blunt and couldn’t manage a smile. The food took far too long to come out, about 40 mins and I had to eat in 5 mins as I had an appointment. This was a ciabatta and a jacket potato with cheese by the way.

Have visited Jack’s on two separate occasions approximately three years apart. Both times, the staff and their service has been absolutely amazing! Despite being so busy, they always provide service with a smile. The first time I visited, I enjoyed their Afternoon Tea with Prosecco for £40pp. Despite being quite a high price point, the top ups were frequent and it was the perfect amount of food, so very much worth the money. The second visit was just last month. Again, great service. Only disappointing thing was the time it took for everything to arrive. 15 minutes passed after ordering before our coffee’s arrived. Then another 10 minutes until the food. I thought it would have been sooner as it wasn’t particularly busy and their seemed to be a lot of staff on. But that aside, I would wholeheartedly recommend Jack’s to visit for a bite to eat!

OK food, nice waiter but appalling, rude and prejudiced owner. Out for a special Mother’s Day, and my son with complex medical needs was expressing his excitement at being out with his family and enjoying himself (albeit a little loud). These are special times making precious memories and no need to be marred by a nasty inappropriate comment alluding to the fact that my son should not be enjoying himself, “I have 47 patrons to consider” Shame he didn’t feel it necessary to tell his table of friends that face timing loudly was upsetting his patrons!!!! If you have nothing nice to say don’t say it, what happened to be kind!!! Will NEVER step foot in this place again!!!!

Luke warm cappuccinos. Looks like they had to be remade with the correct milk. Took circa 15 minutes to make the two coffees which were, in context, mediocre.

I had 2 cappuccinos in the terrace, brought to me by a very polite man. Later when my wife joined me we, in Carries Bar she had spaghetti and I had stir-fry. Nice food and good service, only would have preferred them to be brought at the same time. Staff worked hard and food was of great value. Will come again. Michael and Tracy
