The Angel Coaching Inn in Wiltshire

Randomly drove round some villages to look for somewhere to eat, and boy did we get lucky with The Angel Inn! Was easy to park. Welcoming staff, lovely food, warm and comfortable. Staff did not rush us through the meal. Food was well presented, prepared to a high standard and of a large portion size.

Sunday lunch, roasties were hard and dry, pork belly overcooked. The beef was ok. Not the best we’ve had here, sad to say.

I arranged a 80th birthday celebration for my wife with18 guests and ourselves. We had a three course lunch (with a choice of three dishes for each course) followed by coffe or tea and mints. The Staff at the Angel did us proud and everyone enjoyed themselves. It was a pleasure making the arrangements with a management which delivered on the day. As a side the Angel will make arrangments for those who have a dietry need ie vegan and glutton. Thank you to you all

Fantastic food, the table was a little squashed in the corner, which was our only criticism. The soup was gorgeous Would've loved to have had another vegetarian option, perhaps another pie of the day. We all shared the desert, as we were all full from the two courses we had. We are looking forward to coming back again in the future.

I posted a message yesterday to check that The Angel was open. It is! Today we went in a party of 8 for lunch. This was one of the very best pub lunches I have ever enjoyed, and not particularly expensive (by today's standards!).

Lovely quaint village location. Parking was a bit of an issue, driving to their car-park that was very small and already full so needed to reverse all the way out and park on the main road. The reception was truly warm and welcoming and our family sized table was spot on. The Sunday lunch was superb. Four adults each with different meat selections, and two children with kids choices - brilliant. Truly greatly presented and tasted lovely. Large portions yet still à la carte quality on aspects. Lost a star on waiter attention. I accept this is a very popular venue and therefore busy for the staff, but we were left waiting for over 30 minutes after finishing our main course and needed to progress with our day so desserts had to be declined when a waiting staff member finally re-visited our table.

Booked for my wife's birthday and we were not disappointed at all. The welcome, service, food, wine and general ambience of The Angel was excellent. The menu was concise, but we both loved the food.

We stopped off here on Friday having seen a sign by the side of the road on route from Belgium to Wells. We were hungry and what a find! The inn is beautifully decorated with a lovely atmosphere inside. The service was excellent and the menu just what we wanted. The food was great and the service attentive without being obtrusive. We will definitely be visiting again!

Food very average. The people on the table next door to us we’re all round disappointed. Seems to be a popular pub though, and the service was good. You’ll need a magnifying glass to see the sentence on the menu, “discretionary 10% gratuity added to all bills”! We’re all very fond of cooking, so we know how easy it is to make a good quality meal. We’ll give it another go at Christmas.

The Sunday Roast here is amazing, becoming a firm favourite as we’ve already been back again since! Beautifully cooked, good portions, amazing flavours & good friendly service!

First visit to this fabled pub and what a treat! Welcome warm despite a late lunch arrival. The place was packed on a Monday lunch, but the sweet garden was perfect. The owner herself served me a delicious Caesar Salad and the husband the crispiest, lightest fish and chips ever. Divine. We will be back. Often.

We rang on the spur of the moment to see if they could provide a vegan meal on a Monday lunch time. This was not a problem. Four of us were given excellent meals. There was a vegan starter, main course and desert (coconut panacota). The staff were very attentive and helpful to our needs and we all enjoyed a leisurely meal. The menu sensibly was not extensive but practical to most peoples needs. We shall be going back in the not too distant future.

Highly recommend a visit - limited menu but everything was superb. Vegan options available. Friendly staff and quiet rural location made for a lovely family lunch.

Been refurbished recently. Thought we’d give a local pub a go! Went for Sunday lunch. Daytime tv shopping channel on in the bar area, poor bar service- barman didn’t know what Aperol was. Lunch tables with tacky plastic flowers. Never even asked if wanted a wine list. Starter was bought and pretty poor. Roast was inedible; cold, overcooked as was veg , thick chewy slices. We left. The management was surprised and completely confident all was fine! Not going there again - ever!

We (a group of us) have just had a most delicious lunch at the Angel. Very good food, good service and all in all a very nice time. We all had something different and each one of us were happy with our choice.

My husband & I stopped for lunch with our dogs at The Angel Inn on our way to the New Forest. We were all given a warm welcome by the staff & the food was delightful. We enjoyed it so much that we stopped again...

It is over 3 years since we have eaten at the Angel and what a joy this experience was. My wife and I visited for lunch and could not have experienced a more pleasant and enjoyable occasion. It appears to have had a complete facelift...

Stopped here after a long drive back from the coast and what a wonderful gem. The most welcoming staff that were efficient and very friendly which made us relieve any stress from our drive. We ordered the pork belly and the roast salmon which were...

Stopped here for lunch, 6 of us had a meal and a drink each and was £120ish, friendly staff, really helpful and kind. Has a nice size car park round the back. Very nice portion sizes for the grub, and good value.

Me and my family have been eating Sunday roasts at different pubs the last few weeks as a treat and this we rated our number one out of all of them! The gravy, the meat, the potatoes, the veg, how it had been cooked all...

It was gorgeous and easily the best pub roast I’ve ever had. Plenty of veg, and potatoes, with the biggest Yorkshire pudding. Plenty of gravy and I haven’t stopped talking about it. The service was also fantastic, friendly and helpful. We will be back and...

Enjoyed a fantastic pub lunch here with family and friends after biking at Windhill Bike Park. Having accommodated our party of 10, we were served delicious, hearty plates of food in a very friendly and efficient manner. The biscuits for the dogs and lollipops for...

Had Sunday lunch here yesterday with the Family and I have to say it was one of the best Sunday Roasts we’ve had for a very long time. Great meats, fresh tasty vegetables proper roasters and delicious gravy served quickly and with a smile. Can’t...

Ate with friends recently - it's better than average, but couldn't give it a very good rating - the menu range felt a little limited, my wife's chicken dish was overly salty for her (not normally a problem with chicken dishes) and felt a little...

We have been so impressed with the level of service of this pub it’s our second visit originally was 4 persons and yesterday we were 8 the service food and the great atmosphere and banter was really great we will be back. We had a...

Excellent Sunday roast, very friendly staff. The whole family was very impressed. A real gourmet experience. Highly recommended

We had a really lovely Sunday roast here and can highly recommend it. The food was excellent and the staff very attentive to us, although didn’t seem to coordinate between themselves very well and we ended up with three lots of apple sauce, when we...

I was a frequent visitor of the Angel Inn before Covid and loved my visits, great food, great atmosphere, good service. I can only say I was very disappointed when we were able to return. Food was ok but over priced for what we received...

I was served a small, tough piece of rump steak which was pink when I had asked for it to be well done. After attempting a few bites & finding it tough & very difficult to chew, I sent it back asking if I could...

Booked for dinner on Sat 13th Nov at 6pm, 6 adults and 2 children, we booked to eat early having 2 young children, a warm greeting on arrival and drinks quickly served. The food was excellent and all the staff were really friendly and helpful....

Only two things are required for a stay in a hotel, a bed and hot water. I was given room 2 which was a double room but for 3 days they had no water which meant I could not have a shower and the room...

Looking for somewhere to eat before our long drive home from Longleat, The Angel in is located only a couple of minutes off of the main road. We checked when we entered if we were able to eat as we hadn't booked, the young lad...

From the first interaction until leaving everything was faultless. Exceptional value for money and an excellent experience. I work in the industry and cannot recommend this establishment enough. I am already planning how I can get out of SE London with my partner to stay...

We stopped here on our way back from a long day out and about in Salisbury, tired and hungry. We were made to feel very welcome by the owner and they even opened the kitchen early for us. The pub itself is spotless, well decorated...

A very pleasant evening in lovely surroundings. A very secure COVID organisation with tables spaced out. The waiting staff were excellent and efficient. Well done there 👏 The wine and beer list was comprehensive.🍷 Food quality from steaks to fish were spot on with many...

Been here before and had lovely meal, was disappointed in tonight's meal, starter was the best part. Very basic menu. Wasn't expecting 10% service charge, like to give what was reflected not told. Won't be top of list for return.

It was Father’s Day and my dad is 94!! We have eaten there many times before and always had good food. Dad and I chose lamb roast when it arrived it was 2 very large slices of pale pink grissle. The roast potatoes you couldn’t...

Food, service and drinks excellent. Lovely pub. Will definitely come again. Heytesbury is such a beautiful charactersome village, steeped in history. The only downside, it was made very apparent to us when first entering the pub that the locals were very much in charge. If...

The best roast beef in the county. The gravy was absolutely sublime. What a chef! It was brought to the table by truly wonderful serving staff who were charming. The strawberry trifle was also so fill of flavour. That custard was just delicious. My only...

My mother-in-law's first meal out for 11 months and she wasn't disappointed. Neither were we. The starter of king prawns in a light batter was delicious. The roast dinners were beautifully cooked, melt in the mouth roast beef with perfect vegetables. I had salmon with...

We have just had the most delicious Sunday lunch at The Angel, the food was exceptional, good quality ingredients cooked to perfection, the patè was tasty as was the white bait and the fantastic Jersey Royal starter, the vegetables still had a beautiful bite, not...

Booked on booking.com at the higher price I got to include breakfast. Hotel confirmed booking which meant money taken. After this sent me a message to say price was wrong but I could stay but won't not give us a breakfast. Explained I was given...

Great pub/restaurant! Especially the Sunday Roasts, best in the area by a country mile. Our son, a Londoner said it was the best Sunday pub lunch he'd ever had. Good atmosphere, pleasant team behind the bar.

Had a very enjoyable evening tonight with a couple of friends. Just a few pints and a laugh. One of the few proper pubs left in our area. The manager, Roger, was delightful. A great guy and so obliging. He made us so welcome. A...

Ate here twice on recent stay in Warminster as wasn't very far from the b&b where I stayed with a friend. Was recommended by the lady who runs the b&b and can understand why. Great social distancing observed with tables a great distance apart, very...

Because of a no show we were able to have a table at this impressive characterful pub greeted by friendly staff service exemplary food was superb very tasty and beautifully presented would thoroughly recommend a visit - have tried to re-book since and has been...

Past experiences both with food and service have been excellent Friday 14 Aug we had family visiting so decided to take them out for a meal, the mains took over an hour and a half to be delivered, we did not complain, however when the...

We had a fab supper last night in the garden, twinkly lights, cold rose and delicious food - a perfect summer's evening!

We had a lovely meal here the food was lovely the drinks were a good price which was nice for a change as sometimes with country pubs they can be expensive and the waiting staff were really lovely and friendly, as we had to change...

Stayed for an overnight visit. Lovely friendly service. Clean room and super breakfast. On arrival I was promptly checked in and shown to my room. On a very arm day I enjoyed a nice cold beer in their beautiful courtyard. I would recommend

We had an amazing sunday roast dinner today, beautifully cooked rare roast beef, perfect roast potatoes and plenty of vegetables, in a lovely courtyard garden

Lovely pub, in a lovely setting. We ate here en route to Wells (our holiday location for the week). Friendly young couple greeted us, and we sat in a lovely outdoor courtyard area. Menu was varied, which included a children’s menu for our 5 year...

There was a good variety of food, all seemed to be freshly cooked. I tried the burger which was delicious and very filling and the ploughman's which was also exceptional. Their full English breakfasts were filling enough to keep me going all day.

Just went for a Sunday lunch after the Covid re-opening. The meal and service havn't changed, still as good as it was. The social distancing measures were all in place and we felt very safe. The tables were well spread out, numerous sanitation stations were...

My husband and I have just had a lovely lunch at the Angel. Food good. I had pie, chips and veg which was very tasty and presented well. Hubby had ham, egg and chips which he really enjoyed. Staff very welcoming and friendly. Give it...

Had the most amazing meal with family at this once more brilliant pub. Staff attentive and the food was prepared and served with thought and quality.

So nice to see The Angel back to what it was a few years ago. Wonderful food, charming bar and waiting staff. Seniors Lunches Tuesdays and Thursdays, £9 for two courses. Excellent quality and value for money! We are very lucky to have The Angel...

We had an impromptu dinner here tonight for 14 of us which we accept was a large number. However, among that only 4 ordered meals (burgers, ham and chips and sausage and mash), the rest just starters and chips. There was also nobody else in...

From the bubbly reception of the bar staff through to the delicious food this is exactly how to deliver an excellent pub experience. All the food was packed with flavour and served with a smile. Just great.

I have visited twice, the Angel has a lovely atmosphere and the staff are very friendly and efficient but on both occasions the food was disappointing. On steak night the steaks were mediocre, onion rings greasy and the chips were unpleasant.

Attended the Quiz Night, on Sunday. Great fun. Well written quiz: good variety of questions for our team. Well organised.

We had a wonderful meal today. Several different options from the menu, all enjoyed greatly. Excellent service too.

It is good that this iconic pub has reopened under new management. The atmosphere is as good as ever and it is hoped that the Angel will reestablish its once fine reputation in the locality. However, the lack of a "pub lunch" menu is disappointing...

Went for lunch with my mother and the food was fabulous...love the new layout in the bar area and the whole ambience of the pub. Will be back soon to try the new Eggs Royale as was always a favourite previously. The staff were well...

Visited this place as I have heard it has been purchased recently and re opened.. well, what an improvement. We was served by Chris, his service was amazing! Looked after us throughout the meal! Great wine, great food, great service, great company! We will see...

A friend and I stopped off for a quick lunch on our way back from Warminster as we used to go there back in the 1990s! We received such a lovely welcome from the new owners who were reopening that day. Lovely food, great service...

So happy to see The Angel thriving and busy again! I’ve only been for drinks so far, but the atmosphere was fab, with a good selection of beers and gins. We’ll be back soon to try the food!

Sadly this pub is not as good as it used to be. The food whilst being quite good, isn’t as good as it used to be. Fish and chips were a little plain and the burger in a bun was a little tasteless and rather...

Unfortunately we did not have a good time at this pub, our food took nearly an hour to come out with no explanation by the staff. If things will be delayed I expect an apology and to be informed it will be more than 30minites....

Heard that The Angel has re-opened with new Owners & Management. Booked, with friends, for an early meal last night. Friendly greeting, dog-friendly, spacious table, prompt service, tempting menu (went for faggots, then treacle pud). Thoroughly recommended. We’ll be back soon.

NYE meal with friends for an early evening gathering. Welcoming bar and spacious restaurant, especially for our 4 legged family. Good menu choices for all tastes and requirements. Beautiful presentation and tasty main courses. Desserts were sumptuous and decent portion sizes. Attentive-staff throughout, especially given...

Great old pub, just re-opened.I live nearby in Upton Lovell. Popped in for lunch. Spent 20 minutes at bar waiting to be served drinks. No menus visible. Found a menu - 3 courses, but no quick sandwich etc. Not served - so left - as...

Lovely pub - welcoming and friendly staff, brilliant service and lovely food. Didn’t see a kids menu but my son was happy with cheesy chips (so was I - they were delicious). The dog was welcomed too with a dog bowl out and treats on...

Just had a meal on the opening day of the Angel, couldn’t be more impressed. The service was excellent and the menu looked fantastic. I choose the homemade faggots....lovely. Good selection of real ales, I choose Timothy TAYLOR landlord and ended up drinking 4!!! Will...

A quaint old pub with enormous bedrooms upstairs, full of character. The hosts were amazing. Couldn't do enough for us. Delicious breakfast.Great value for money. Highly recommended.

We love to say, really loved our stay at the angel Inn Room hospitality service thankyou Chloe. who was our waitress very warm welcoming. service we received was perfect thankyou for making my family just enjoy there evening and my birthday just to sit in...

What a lovely find. We only wanted a small lunch not a full roast as we were eating dinner in the evening. The staff and owners were charming and nothing was too much trouble for them. We will be back to have a full lunch...

The Angel has for many years been a perfect pit stop just far enough off a busy main road to be charming. Excellent food , nice staff and a decent wine list. Dropped in for lunch to find a choice of sandwiches or sandwiches. Ordered...

Just paid a visit to the Angel Inn at Heytesbury, now under new Management, the roast beef was incredible easily the best pub roast we have had in years. Well done to the new chef for a good well balanced meal. Would recommend a trip...

Sandwiches on menu and these are sandwiches for the hungry and gluten free options all round . Great service great surroundings and wow to top it all off a very happy to help owner who was more than happy to promptly help us out when...

Warm Welcoming atmosphere - new management and new staff - nothing too much trouble - Small menu (waiting on recruiting another chef) Food was plentiful and hot. Roast Beef or Chicken with Roast potatoes, Yorkshire’s, cauliflower cheese and various seasonal veg. Good Value, Dog Friendly

Decided to try out the new menu and found it to be not only well priced but lovely tasting too! Good venue for family food with a lovely cosy atmosphere and good staff to make your evening fulfilled. We will be back soon 😊

Leigh and the staff are fantastic! Friendly with amazing service! The pub has a lovely atmosphere and menu and the rooms are really lovely. The whole family enjoyed the outting it's definitely going to be our go to place now!

Booked this room early in February and then without any notice whatsoever they cancelled the room. Not normally a problem but because we are now having to book again there are fewer rooms available in that area which means underestimate if pounds more being spent....

We had a bar lunch. We have not been there for a year or so. The service was pleasant and helpful but the food was disappointing and not inexpensive. Pity as it is s pleasant pub in a delightful village . Perhaps it was an...

Been a few times and there’s been a couple of issues but nothing major. The last visit wasn’t good at all, order was messed up. Waited 25 minutes to get a drink order after going to bar and being told someone will come to take...

Had a wonderful lunch, and fab pudding with my mum, brother, hubby and daughter on Mothering Sunday...great service and amazing food 😋 Looking forward to trying the new salad lunch menu soon too!!

the most over priced and underwhelming meal I have ever had the misfortune trying to eat.The starters were cold in the middle.The chips tasted foul must have been cooked in dirty oil to get a flavour like that and the salad leaves I dread to...

The supplied menu did not reflect the online example in the least, so don't be taken in. Four of the six over~priced meals had to be returned. Two because they tasted unpleasantly strange. These were a "vegetarian option" which were basically boiled turnip and parsnip...

Visited on Valentine’s Day thinking it would be busy and a booming atmosphere..how wrong, one other table of 2 and us, no music, no one in the bar so quiet we felt awkward to talk. Waited ages for order to be taken even though it was only us..then order came out wrong to which the waitress apologised for her mistake (ours was the only order on) Hard mashed potato and chewy steak a very un enjoyable meal. owners sitting in the pub with there child enjoying their lovely home cooked meal. Will not be returning such a shame as used to be a great pub!

Dismal atmosphere. Dismal Staff. Utterly dismal food. Used to be a lovely pub with great food, will not be visiting again.

The pub was brilliant when I lived locally before on returning sadly no more its dirty unwelcoming no fire lit random furniture in the bar the manger his wife and child sorting Rotas loudly sat in the bar poor selection of beers and the disinterested bar staff more interested in talking to her colleagues about her jeggings Had intended to eat but left and has a super meal at the prince Leopold up the road which was buzzing so lots of trade about

A good place to stop if you want to avoid the Stonehenge traffic jams ! The staff are very friendly, the menu limited but the food is good.

De grootste probleem met deze accommodate is de prijs het is veel te duur voor wat jij krijgt, echt onder de maat. Kamer en met name de badkamer erg kaal geen seep of douche gel aanwezig. Service is ook onder de maat voor de prijs, er moet beter b en b's in de regio voor deze prijs. Advice zoek iets anders.

Went to this pub to meet friends, place was very nice and welcoming. Friendly staff. Would definitely recommend!

Room was lovely, very friendly staff who were happy to accommodate to any request. Breakfast was amazing! Best Eggs Royal! Dinner was great, good variety of choices. Enjoyed the live music & family atmosphere.

On the way home from Longleat and was recommended this pub. Lovely find. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Limited menu but varied, but nice quality food and friendly waitress. Will recommend and return if in the area

What a great evening all 24 of us had! Everything was perfect and the service was just outstanding. We will be going back again.

Our meal was excelent especially the fillet steak and cheese board. Our room was just what we wanted with a comfortable bed and just up the stairs from the bar. Breakfast was the best.
