Mayflower in Wiltshire

Great food. Average service. Slow take away, always later than claimed. Expensive. Great food. Too much choice.

our meal, all the food was the best and a friendly Restaurant BUT they have almost doubled there price from the last time we went in early may it was over £100 pound for two of us and we didn't have that much and last time time it was £60 pound for the same food

Best Chinese restaurant in Devizies and Melksham ..

A must visit in Devizes. Great food great service and a lovely friendly atmosphere with fabulous authentic food.

Ordered from here as take away, and been to sit in several times, always amazing food, the Thai green curry is always slightly different, and i love that as you know it's being freshly made, and every time it's been amazing, nothing has disappointed me yet, when sitting in some food may take longer, but i'd rather wait and have it freshly cooked any day of the week!

We eat here regularly and when we don’t eat in, we get a takeaway. The food is THE best Thai/Chinese for miles around. My favourite dish is the mela dry pot - delicious! The food is cooked fresh, so it does say on the menu that there may be a wait and that they won’t be rushed. Fine by us; at least we know it’s freshly cooked. The place is spotlessly clean, and the staff are friendly and polite. One of our favourites in Devizes, if not the best.

The food was very nice but menu online very misleading price wise the menu online said £6.50 for a noodle dish but when I ordered it the bill said £13.50 for the same dish so online menu apparently reflects take away prices

One thing I cannot complain about is the food. It’s lovely. The service however was poor. It’s taken 3 hours to have a drink, starter and main. We had to prompt for food and ask 3 times for the bill. The food was very expensive considering they take so long to serve you. The waitress could tell I was annoyed at how long it had taken but no discount was offered despite us not being able to make our other plans as we hadn’t expected food to take 3 hours!! Had they warned us there was a wait, we would have gone elsewhere. What made it worse is the table behind us who got there as we were trying to get the bill, we served quickly and had their starters within the first 10/15minutes. The restaurant wasn’t even busy. Not sure if they were having a bad day or not enough staff but I wouldn’t go back. Not worth paying for.

Very friendly and quick service. The food was delicious (yes they have knives and forks!) Definitely a recommended place to eat.

Food was really delicious with lots of great flavours. Wouldn't hesitate to come back again.

Absolutely phenomenal Chinese, cannot fault it at all, the smoked chicken is by far the best I’ve ever eaten. Would give a 10 star rating if it was possible. Only thing I wish is it was open 7 days a week!

We had a lovely meal a few weeks ago at the Mayflower. We've been a few times and have always been so impressed. The food is lovely. Service is very friendly and efficient. We will be back!

What a fabulous place - it was spotless. We received a very warm welcome from someone who was very attentive but not over the top. The food was arguably the best Chinese meal we've ever had. Will we go back there - ABSOLUTELY in a heartbeat.

Great food and friendly staff. Just had a lovely meal at The Mayflower - lovely Thai starters, duck and a couple of mains and rice. Delicious and great staff.

Ordered a good variety of dishes coming to nearly £100. The overall experience was disappointing. The flavours were not authentic Chinese. For example, Kung Po chicken was a sweet and sour sauce with extra chilli rather than the true Schizuan flavours it should be. We have since read the reviews, and sadly, a pattern of denial and justification is clear in the restaurant's responses. If, like us, you love authentic Chinese food, this is not the place for you.

Came here with my family and had such a lovely meal. The food service is fast and the waiter was very approachable & lovely. The food was delicious! very much recommend

They very kindly opened at lunch time for a large corporate booking. The food was great and delivered on time! everyone in the office loved it. Thank you.

Very nice food, a number of vegan options which can be hard to find. Would happily return!

wonderful food cannot find something wrong anytime discover new flavors must try if you visit Devizes in Wiltshire

Lovely meal , enjoyed every course , staff friendly and service good .

What a lovely friendly place, Me and my three sisters visited from Scotland and could not stop talking about how they thought that it was the best crispy chicken balls and rice they have ever had would definitely recommend and wee were made very welcome with lovely surroundings Thank you from the lady with the pink hair 17th November

Following on from the Restaurant's response: It seems to me something has changed, if my recollection of my first visit is correct. Of course, it is not at all uncommon for the quality of supplies to decline in the pursuit of economies. I've eaten satay and curry all over South East Asia, so have some yardstick against which to assess Oriental food. I take no pleasure in being critical of small businesses, but also take no pleasure in mediocrity. Good luck for the new year. It's been year or so since we last visited, and remember having had a nice meal in this restaurant. Unfortunately this visit was very disappointing. The food was very average, the prices not so. My wife's shredded beef dish was the worst she'd ever had. The chicken satay was bland, spring rolls ok, and my Thai curry had poor quality meat and again a rather bland taste. Pleasant waiting staff and a clean, if rather characterless environment merited a couple of stars overall. But if you are familiar with good Oriental cuisine, don't expect to find it here...not for the moment at least.

When you have been ordering very frequently for nearly 5 years, very similar order each time, but get delivered tonight not all your order and some of the order wrong despite me asking the order to be repeated back, to then drive down to try and sort so as a whole family can sit down together to warm food, the response was awful. No understanding. Last time we order - we have had many orders slightly wrong from here but enjoyed the food but this is the last time. The food isnt cheap but we dont mind paying if its right but again the service has been appalling. Need a new chinese. Cost us £70 and they made us bring back the wrong dishes to prove it!! Why has it taken us so long - because we want to support local and when the food is right it is good but the service has tipped us now. After working a long week and wanting to treat the family and as a mum not cook for one day this ended sadly and i wish i had just cooked again! ***In response it was also missing 2 dishes - seaweed and a prawn dish was wrong. Both that and the duck were clarified twice on the phone and repeated back by caller We came to collect as we wanted to try and then eat our whole meal warm and at the same time Apologies if i got 5 yrs wrong - we moved here nearly 5 yrs ago so i assumed it had been the whole time - in that case we have tried to support you from your start

Fantastic food, arrived quickly and great vegetarian options.

Excellent quality food, service friendly and efficient. Just love eating here.

Service was friendly and quick. Food was very tasty. It was incredibly fresh and non greasy. Would recommend 👌 👍

It's ok, food nothing special and overpriced, did not buy alcohol as way over priced

Long wait and poor value for money. Long wait for food and when it did arrive the portions were small for the price! Wait for starters and mains combined equalled 2 hours. I wouldn't of minded but the taste and quality was not much greater than what you could get for half the price in a typical Chinese takeaway. The Cashew Chicken turned out to be chicken in a sauce with veg and peanuts...not a single cashew in sight. No mention of ingredient shortage upon ordering etc. To add insult to injury regarding the wait, a party of 12 arrived shortly after we finished starters and they received their food within half an hour of ordering!

Good value for money and excellent service and excellent quality food highly recommended

5 STAR and Well Worth the Trip People are often fast to criticise but so slow to congratulate. After this evenings visit I would have no doubt highly recommending the Mayflower Devizes for anyone wanting a very pleasant evening out, in a truly relaxing atmosphere, able to enjoy their meal with the feeling of being rushed along by staff. Receiving a most pleasant greeting upon arrival, after being seated our drinks order were immediately taken and delivered without delay or fuss. The restaurant was reasonably busy for a Tuesday, which to us was a good sign as it is clearly a popular eatery. We were given ample time to pursue and discuss the menu, with appetisers brought to keep us going whilst our food was being freshly cooked. The starters all arrived promptly and we found them excellent both in quality and presentation. The waitress, most pleasant, even remembered to ask if we needed more drinks. Clearly an eye for detail that was much appreciated. There was no rush between courses, and we were given ample time to enjoy & digest our food with light conversation, before the empty plates were cleared. Always smiling our main courses, again well presented and of high quality, were delivered by the same waitress whose pleasant manor and welcoming approach certainly made us feel at home. Nigel was particularly attentive, making sure everything was to our satisfaction, and again giving us the opportunity to top up drinks on this rather warm evening. Given the high quality of the food, the level of service and the amount of drinks that were had ordered, we were surprised by the relatively low cost of the entire evening. A FIVE STAR experience if every there was one and well worth a visit. I know we will be returning soon even though it is almost a 50 mile round trip.

Ordered the Singapore chow mein as a takeaway, it was ready quickly and was delicious

Very expensive!! Small portions and never before have we paid £4 for a small bowl of rice or noodles £8.95. Food as in photo plus 4 drinks 83£. It tasted but the price is not ok. We visit Devizes as tourists and do NOT recommend it!

Nice food , but shouldn’t accept orders for delivery on a busy weekend evening unless you want to wait for hours . Sending out an email saying you’re busy and a time giving 2 hours later than what you expect is all well and good but doesn’t give the option of cancelling your order if you want to change your mind as no one picks up the phone either , stating no staff available .

We stayed in the area over the last weekend and decided on a takeaway from the Mayflower. Probably the best we have ever had in terms of quality, taste and service. The food was stunning and we couldn't recommend it enough. The only downside is the parking unfortunately but you can't have everything..

Lovely Chinese with very accommodating staff.

Really nice restaurant, everything was clearly cooked fresh, and best Thai green curry I've had in a while! Recommended for sure

Had a fantastic banquet meal for 8 this evening to celebrate my Dad's 90th birthday. We couldn't have chosen any where better.

Food is delicious and stuff is very friendy.

Contemporary Chinese decor with plenty of coloured lights. The staff are efficient, courteous and fuss free. The menu offers a broad selection. Our meals did not take long to arrive and were delicious. The Katsu Chicken Curry is highly recommended. Our evening was interrupted four times by a misbehaving fire alarm but I trust this was a 'one off'.

Fantastic food. I get deliveries and collect. Their timings are much better than before. Love them.

Best place in Devizes for Chinese and Thai food. Tried them all in Devizes and this place is far the best

Dropped in without a reservation and we were in a rush as we were off to see a theatre production. However, the food was very nice and the staff were friendly. We would definitely go back.

1st visit to this restaurant and it was very nice good hot food great staff and very busy. Highly recommended

Had a lovely meal, nice atmosphere, warm restaurant and good attentive service. Starters delicious and also the main course, Will definitely return again

We visited this lovely restaurant to celebrate a birthday. It had a nice calm atmosphere and friendly staff. The menu was huge making it hard to choose from as I could have eaten everything on it. The food arrived in good time and was of a fresh, flavoursome, high quality. The presentation was also first class. This is high quality Asian cuisine and not to be dismissed at Chinese style takeaway. We will return as we have always enjoyed the food. Highlights for us were the smoked chicken and the mayflower mixed meat stir fry special. Also the wok chips were delicious and full of flavour.

A convivial evening with friends.

Lovely evening. Food was fantastic! Best Thai food I've ever had. Great service. Very accommodating to food allergies/preferences...all food cooked fresh. All staff extremely helpful/friendly and all wore face masks. Def reccomend and will be returning to eat in or order take out. Book ahead to avoid disappointment as very popular ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Collected my daughter from respite in Devizes and decided to stop for some food. Absolutely first class meal, staff were brilliant. Will definitely return My daughter loved her meal and her desert. We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

This restaurant exceeded our expectations. The food was cooked perfectly and the restaurant had a lovely atmosphere. We will definitely be returning soon.

Once again amazing food, I cannot recommend the smoked chicken enough. Super annoying that it is cash only delivary though

Really good, tasty dishes that are beautifully presented and loved the colourful decor. Very friendly too.

Service faultless, food delicious, non tacky decoration and most importantly of all for me is that the table tops / whole room light airy AND immaculately clean. Thanks. Will revisit again next time.

Such a pleasure to have found this independent doing such great food. Highly recommend.

Beautiful hot delicious food served with a smile, banquet with a good selection of food

Food was very fresh and tasty. Vegetables tasted like actual vegetables to give a mix of flavours, not greasy or salty. Good service too.

Very tasty meal for Father's Day with my partners sons and their wife & partner.

We love this little restaurant. Always welcoming and great food. Highly recommended

I visited for a takeaway. The food I ordered was good and they had it ready as promised. I was surprised when paying that the amount was significantly more than on the menu. I just thought I had looked at an old menu when ordering. On checking the website I found it also has the old prices. I'm well aware that they probably had no choice to put their prices up, that isn't my moan. It's only fair that customers know how much they are charging. Once you have the bag in your hand you feel obliged to pay what they are asking. It was almost a tenner more than what was advertised on their menu and website!

Great food and yes, it took some time and wasn't cheap but then I wasn't looking for cheap 'fast' food. Waitress was very welcoming and good at her job too. What more can I ask?

Excellent food both Chinese and Thai

Nice food, no MSG but 2 hour wait for a take away in normal circumstances and the fact you cannot phone for updates is frustrating.

Excellent food. Lovely staff. Willing to customise for gluten free. We have purchased from Mayflower on several occasions, never fails to deliver quality.

Excellent food great place recommend to anyone

Having completed the Caen Locks in 2 1/2 hours on Saturday 5th February, my son booked 4 of us in to the Mayflower. Now, I am 65 and my brother is 60. We have travelled the world and have had Chinese food everywhere from Beijing...

Nice atmosphere and food, service was great. Tiny shared toilet though!

Had a lovely Thai meal on our first visit to this restaurant. The food and service was excellent. Would definitely come back again and try their Chinese option.

Had a great take away last night. They were very helpful in their gluten free options and we had Thai from the choice available. It was the best food I have had of this type for ages. A huge thank you from the three of us that had this delicious dinner.

Really nice place very clean and the food excellent.

Great service and great food. We booked for 6.30. Seated on time. Couldn't make our minds up, so the poor waitress kept coming back to us. Once we made our choices the food was delivered quickly, very presentable and was piping hot

We visited this restaurant as a party of 5. The service was very good but then there were only 2 other tables on a quiet Thursday evening. The food was ok, nothing special and maybe a little on the bland side, but it was overly...

We didn't realise when we booked it that this restaurant served Thai food as well as Chinese - what a treat! Our Chinese sharing platter starter was amazing, every element cooked to perfection, each dipping sauce delicious, and the Pad Thai with Chicken in Peanut Sauce that followed was every bit as scrumptious. A pot of Jasmine tea was the perfect way to finish off a truly excellent meal. Highly recommended.

Lovely food, however, service was slow and very unwelcoming. Very expensive for drinks and even the food is above average.

We called in on the off chance of a table whilst staying for 1 night in Devizes. The staff were very accommodating and despite being very busy found us a table. It was clearly a busy night in the restaurant and people calling in for...

At 5,40pm. on Saturday evening, on a whim, my wife and I turned up at this restaurant in the hope of a meal. We had eaten there before on a few lunch occasions, when we are usually the ONLY customers, and have had several takeaways......

Had a extremely nice meal here. Staff friendly, place spotless.on holiday in the area so just called in after looking online at others reviews. Glad we did we were not disappointed.

Great look, interesting food. Go for the chef specials!

Excellent food whether you sit in or takeaway. Staff always friendly and polite

Good food and friendly, Sitting outside safe from covid.

Used this Chinese for the first time this evening, a little late on delivery but it was worth the wait. Food was hot and delicious 👍🙂

We were on holiday in the area and decided to try The Mayflower as we love Thai food. We weren't disappointed. There's a great atmosphere, the service is good and the food is really tasty.

Great food and lovely service.we really enjoyed the Tapas lunch and the prices were also very reasonable. Well worth a visit

Beautiful food and wonderful people, will definately return

So we had a table booked but needed to cancel, tried for over an hour and a half to contact them and they clearly had the phone off the hook. Finally got a recorded message which said no-one could answer phone and suggested we order...

Absolutely fabulous food. Knocked down a notch because was quite slow service. Was very nice and pleasant and a good meal.

Lovely takeaway. Very efficient service. Good lunch menu, must try soon 😋

I haven’t been here yet but plan to eat here tomorrow (Thu 5th) night. The reason I’ve written this is because of the replies from Trang the owner which I thought were hilarious - anyone who has the balls to defend his restaurant, chefs and...

Dined in beautiful resteraunt with an oriental touch. We ordered the crispy seaweed, Ribs pork and mushrooms, sweet and sour chicken The food was amazing but the seaweed was very salty and was unable to eat it. Very helpful and friendly Staff.

Wow!!... Great food, loved the atmosphere. Excellent, very courteous service..... one of the best for time out.

Lovely authentic food, great service and good value. Pretty setting with nice atmosphere. Worth a visit. Mike,Jo & Ross

Great value and marvellous food.

Went for dinner at the Mayflower, friendly welcoming staff and the food was fresh and delicious. Our only criticism would be the wait for the food. We didn't complain or question as we weren't in a rush however would have been a nice gesture for them to give complimentary prawn crackers.....as most Asian style restaurants do this anyway when you arrive and chinese takeaways always include if you spend a certain amount! Would recommend 🍜

Very good the decor makes it even better. Love it

Come to cotswold for a long weekend break from Liverpool and looked for a decent Chinese/Thai restaurant for a dine in meal. After googling the local area and being recommended by the hotel staff we came across mayflower in Devizes. I’ve nothing but praise for this little village restaurant. The food and service was second to none. So tasty and portion size excellent we will come again in August during our next weekend away to the cotswolds. The Staff were very polite and the restaurant clean. Thanks for a wonderful evening.

Just had a lovely lunch at the Mayflower (Thai) Can really recommend eating outside, it felt very holiday-like The food was brilliant - especially for a vegetarian. The lunch menu is a mix of tapas plates and larger dishes with plenty of options. It's not too fatty so doesn't leave you feeling dodge like some Chinese places! The staff were also very accomodating when I made a mistake with my order. Enjoy

Really great food and service. I can't fault them

Was really excited to try the Mayflower as they have some traditional Thai dishes on the menu Ordered a takeaway … Thai fish cakes, meat spring rolls, pork in Thai red sauce & Thai beef & basil. Sadly was really poor quality and the least...

Met up here as a group of 6 friends for lunch and a good catch up! Service friendly and welcoming We had booked a table indoors but opted to sit outside as so sunny, no problem and table created for us to sit outside in...

Rare to be able to get good Chinese food in the UK. Lovely restaurant too with excellent service (Li)

Went there this evening with a family group of 6 Had a variety of meal's and desert All tasted great and the staff are polite and friendly I cannot fault the restaurant

Lovely food. All cooked to order. Premises very clean and service excellent.had veggie platter. Very imaginative and delicious.
