Messums Restaurant in Wiltshire

As I’m a northerner Harry Ramsdens is very close to my heart,so when I visited the one in Swindon I was a little apprehensive about what they would serve up. It was all superb,and the staff were so friendly as well. Definitely worth a visit.

3rd time here and whilst it’s decent value and the food is ok, waiting over 30 mins again on a very quiet weekday morning is no excuse.

We went into this pub just for a drink. There were 5 of us with 2 dogs. As we went in I politely asked the woman behind the bar if it was ok to sit round the back with the dogs. She answered with "yes". The most miserable bar person I have encountered! Anyway my husband went and got the drinks and came back with 1 glass of wine, 1 pint of lager, a coke, lemonade and lime and soda. The soft drinks were in small glasses, no ice and were flat. No slice of lime in the lime and soda. The most miserable drinks that matched the miserable bar staff! That round of drinks cost over £20. The table was grubby and so we're the chairs. What a horrible place. Such a shame!

Pub was empty, waiter/landlord still insisted no prams as it blocks pathways (plenty of space). Food arrived cold, “vegan” menu was unflavoured potato curry. Held off this review for 2 years but I had nightmares again.

Nice view. Only visited the upstairs, imagine it's quiet nice in the summer
