Hemos tratado de comer en este pub muchas veces antes, pero nunca hemos podido aparcar cerca de la misma, lo que necesitamos hacer porque los problemas de movilidad. El aparcamiento es muy pequeño y no hay mucho aparcamiento en la calle. Llegamos allí esta noche antes de las multitudes y que bien vale la pena. Mi esposa tuvo el bistec, pidió que raro y llegó exactamente cómo se divierte ... casi vivos! Yo tenía pastel de carne con cerveza y me gustó mucho. El aparcamiento lo permite volveremos.

No haber cenado allí durante muchos años pero ver informes positivos en Trip Advisor pensamos que nos daría el lugar a donde ir. Muy decepcionante, el servicio era pobre, no había nada de ambiente y las 4 comidas eran horrible! Todos nosotros 4 comedor para comer más de un cuarto de nuestra comida. La cebolla dulce sopa no tenía sabor y si yo cerré los ojos me habría sido no tenía ni idea de lo que me estaba comiendo. plato principal: el bacalao en pasta grasosa, los solomillos tenía un olor de OVERIPE y la cesta de pescado había pasado su best_ más la combinación de cálido calamares fríos con gambas y cangrejo era incomible. Nos marchamos sin terminar cualquiera de nuestras comidas. TERRIBLEMENTE caro y no vale la pena el viaje. Hubiera sido mejor quedarse en casa y pedir a llevar

Llegamos temprano para comer, ya que caminamos desde nuestro camping aproximadamente 1 milla bajando la colina hacia Chippenham. El pub es muy antiguo y bonito. La noche que llegamos, que había tenido una ráfaga de tubo en el piso superior, que había venido a través del techo, tomar uno de los comedores. La casera era bastante preocupado por el ruido del Vax estaba haciendo, subir el agua, pero nos pusieron en otra sala de comedor y no lo considero un problema - estas cosas pasan! Fueron muy amables, la comida era de primera clase, teníamos el cordero culata como un plato principal, y estaba perfectamente preparado. Había un montón de perfectamente vegetales cocidos y fue realmente deliciosos. Los principiantes también estaban bien - parecía que casi todo era casero y muy bien presentado. Teníamos pegajosa pudding toffees para el postre. La carta de vinos también era bastante completa y no caro teniendo en cuenta la zona. Sin duda recomendaría este hotel y me imagino que cuando el fuego en el clima fresco, el restaurante es precioso. El servicio era muy bueno y atento. ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡Volvería sin duda alguna otra vez cuando en la zona.

Estás alojado en Leigh Delamere servicios por la M4, el impredecible casa pública a sólo 2 millas al sur de la J17, parecía una mucho mejor propuesta por una comida que los servicios de la autopista. El impredecible es un tradicional country pub, con vigas a la vista y bajo fuego a leña que proporciona un ambiente muy agradable en el comedor, tuve la carne asada carvery y mi esposa se había lubina, acompañados con una jarra de 4 hortalizas, col roja, judías verdes, zanahorias, y brócoli, generosas porciones muy bien presentado, todo servido por un amable atento camarera. Seguir tuve chocolate tarta de queso y mi esposa tenía tarta y crema pastelera treacle absolutamente delicioso. El domingo completo almuerzo se sirve hasta las 3:00 pm, aunque las especialidades del chef son hasta las 8:00 p.m. a 6:00. 2 platos por £15 es una buena relación calidad-precio, muy superior a cualquier cosa en oferta de cualquiera de los servicios de la autopista, y tienen mi voto cada vez.

We have eaten here many times in the last year or two. The food we have had has been consistently top quality. The menu tends to consist of around 20 items presented on a chalk board with some wonderful twists on classic dishes. A wonderful list of wines. Portions are on the generous side and the staff are wonderful which all comes together to give a full "gastro-pub" experience which combines with one of the friendliest locals I have ever been into.

We visited as a stop off on a long journey, we were greated warmly and although we arrived before there normal food service time, our order was taken and food prepared early. You can't ask for better service. The food itself was lovely, no complaints at all, it was nice ingredients prepared well. The price was average for the types of meals but worth it for the quality. Well done.

Met friends for a traditional pub lunch the week before Christmas but chose the wrong place here.I settled for a chicken sandwich after discovering that we could not get a ploughmans lunch or a fresh meat pie dish. Very disappointing it was too, though the bread at least was fresh and crusty, and the plate was full of bland salad greens. Busy but no excuse for not getting the simple things right.

Myself, my sister and dad recently visited the Hit or Miss on a Table Pouncer deal mid-week. The pub decor is a little dated which was a bit off putting to start with but the service was wonderful and the food excellent. It's not fine dining but you wouldn't want it to be. It's just good, honest, pub grub. No fancy, frills! The staff were very friendly and really went out of their way to make us feel at home. Infact after our three courses, plenty of wine, cheese and port we didn't want to leave!As a family we do like to eat out together regularly and we think we've found our new local. Would highly recomend for anyone who fancies a cosy, village pub with hearty food. Enjoy!

We visited whilst staying at the local touring park. We hadn't intended to eat, however were tempted by the menu. We ordered the croquettes and a chicken in garlic sauce. When the meals arrived they were attractively presented with plenty of vegetables. The atmosphere in the pub was very cosy and the staff very welcoming and friendly. We will most definitely eat here again if in the area.

My fiancé and I went here on a Sunday afternoon when most pubs had stopped serving. We were greeted by a friendly barman and made to feel welcome even though we were the only couple in there. We had the choice from a limited specials menu which was fair enough given the time, however never felt as though we were a burden. We both ordered ham, egg & chips which although it might not be at the height of culinary difficulty, the ham was delicious and the chips were cooked perfectly. Very nice indeed. Forget these generic gastro pubs with food on roof tiles and pretentious music, this is a proper pub that has a friendly atmosphere and good, honest grub; a rarity.

Set in the Wiltshire village of Kington Langley the whole area is a delight. This lovely old village pub has managed to increase the number of tables for diners without losing its 'olde world charm'. There is ample outside seating. They have an interesting wine list with guest wines and an excellent choice of ales.......yes ales!The menu is varied and home cooked and there is choice of imaginitive fillings for jacket potatoes. Well worth a visit if in the area.

We ate there on Saturday evening , quaint little pub with a friendly bar man . We ordered a chicken sizzler and an African chicken curry . After waiting for almost an hour the food arrived , I didn't like the look of my husbands sizzler and when he cut it open it was raw and frozen inside , they made him egg and chips instead and didnt charge for his meal but still very disappointed and wouldn't recommend it to others.

Staying at caravan site near to this pub, we decided to book a table for our Saturday night meal. The table had breen reserved but was very close to the doorway, which was odd as there were many other tables in the body of the room that were empty all night.The menu choice was limited, and we thought a little on the high side, our mains came in a reasonable time, followed by the sweets ( £5 a go ) food was reasonable but that's all. Probably would not go again

We were greeted by the village peacock who I hope stays around that area as an attraction. The staff very very friendly as were the locals. The food was also fantastic.It is true that the place could do with a bit of a refurb but everything else makes one overlook that.

This place could be amazing, fab location but when you step in it is like going back in time but not in a great way. Food ok, we only had sandwiches tasted fine but presentation was very dated like the surroundings, also a tad unsettling we were they only people there on a Saturday lunch time. The toilets need a major overhaul and a deep clean too. Shame, could be a great country pub.

We were staying at the nearby Plough Lane Adult only caravan park, which is a 20 minute walk from the Hit or Miss. The pub is a very attractive old property with a welcoming atmosphere and good 'olde worlde' décor. Sadly, they employ a system where you have to order your food & drink at different bars!!Why on earth the waitress cant take your drinks order as well as your food order beats me!! However, the food was good, hot and tasty. As we were staying nearby we were given a voucher for 20% off our food and drinks so all in all it was good value for a 2 course Sunday roast.

Needed to meet someone at a convenient location and used my Places of East Just off the Motorway book (probably not its official title but something similar). The Hit and Miss seemed suitable and what a find it was. Friendly staff, lovely traditional village pub atmosphere and an excellent fish lunch - two had the fish and chips and said it was excellent and I had a very nice fish bucket - a shell fish platter in a, well, in a bucket ..... Only a couple of bitters on offer, but as with a comparatively small menu, better to do a few things very well than an array of mediocre. I'd definitely be back if I was in the neighbourhood, or if I can find a reason to be back in the neighbourhood.

This must have changed hands since our last visit and not for the better. Too many tables so we were all squashed in, a fire with little flame and lots of smoke. If you are going to serve roast lunches, the waitress should know whether the beef is rare or not. The vegetables were not seasoned and I have no idea what the roast potatoes were cooked in. The horse outside was lovely though!

Felt like stepping into the Bull in Ambridge, complete with a diverse set of characters. Being somewhat tucked away it seems not to receive much passing trade and thus revolves around recurring local trade. Nothing wrong with that, but when we dropped in for lunch recently we were only grudgingly welcomed.A shame as the menu was a little different to typical pub fare (eg venison, partridge) and was very well cooked. Would return for the food, but....

I visited The Hit or Miss a while back and think it will be a while before I bother going back... I had a burger that had past it's best, just didn't taste right, obviously it was homemade/bought from a butcher but where it was so thick it had to be cooked for so long which unfortunately made it terribly dry and it was plonked in a cheese topped bap from Morrisons, this leads me to my next point... My friend had the spinach and ricotta tortelloni. Morrisons do a great spinach and ricotta tortelloni on their fresh pasta counter, 2 bags for £2.50 (I'd say about 4 pub sized portions), they also do a fresh roasted vegetable sauce for about £1.50 (2 portions)... The chef must have thought that it was so great they decided to put it on the specials board for £10.50 pp, definitely sourced from Morrisons, I do not consider this to be 'special', I consider this to be a case of a bone idle chef who just popped to Morrisons to fetch something to fill up the specials board, fair play though massive return on this dish, probably cost you £1.50 to produce once you chucked a bit of salad in a bowl... £9 return, Good effort!

Went for another lunchtime meal last Tuesday and the food was exceptional as ever. Had something off the lite bite lunch menu. The bacon, brie and cranberry baget and chips to be precise. I must say that the bacon they use is the best bacon I have tasted for years. None of this cheap water injected rubbish that you get today, just great quality tasty bacon. It was my little girls first birthday and they presented her and us with a lovely homemade chocolate cake with accompanying candle. Not good for the hips but delicious.Would highly recommend this friendly and lovely traditional pub, even if you just want a drink!!!

Came down with the caravan and stayed at a nearby caravan site, and this pub was listed as one of the better restaurants. We had Sunday lunch there, and it was fabulous, whereupon on our last night we had a meal again. The food was great. Pity that I don't live near, otherwise I would visit quite often trying various of the menus. I was spoilt for choice. If you are ever down near this pub, you must try it. Only down side is the car parking, very poor as you have to park on the road and its first come first served.

We dined here with friends in May in this traditional village pub and had a very enjoyable meal. The food was tantalisingly good and the atmosphere was lovely. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout the meal but upon arrival and once seated at our table it wasn't made clear that we were to view the menu on the wall to make our selections and then our order would be taken. As the menu is placed by a table used for other diners you feel slightly uncomfortable having to look over them to view the menu board. Apart from that we couldn't fault the beautifully cooked food and would return.

My partner and I go to the Hit or Miss at least once a month but usually more often. And we have been doing so for the last 6 years! Suzan the Chef is creative with her menu, yet not in a pretentious sort of way. Instead, she regularly adds new items to her menu that we wish other pubs and restaurants would offer more often. Her lamb tagine is beautiful and the tasty kedgeree never goes amiss. All tastes are catered for: even if you just fancy a simply dish, you will not be disappointed by her haddock and chips with a genuinely light and crispy batter. There are other local pubs where the menu gets changed once a season if you are lucky. Whereas at the Hit or Miss, we always find something new to try, despite going so often - and we are always delighted. Service is excellent too, always accommodating and polite.

Hubby and I ate at this pub a while back but were unimpressed by the way I (as a coeliac) was treated, and vowed never to return. However, we did, today, as part of a group of about 24. Several people said their salmon wasn't cooked properly, one had undercooked duck that had to be replaced, and there were other issues (no gluten-free bread even though they knew a coeliac would be there). I told a waitress my salmon wasn't cooked through, but no-one came back to me. Service is hopeless (one waitress stretched across on front of me with a plateful of roast dinner, to reach my friend); no-one checked whether our food was ok.It takes a lifetime to gain good customers, and 30 seconds to lose them and their friends and families.Definitely Miss, not Hit.

I think the bad review was a bit of uncalled for. It looks like a family pub with friendly locals and I concur to others who gave a good review. We were group of 3 couples with 4 children of 6-9 years and a 21months baby. We booked 30 mins prior arriving to the pub and our place was ready.We ordered plenty of food, ale (recommended), wine and soft drinks, all in which arrived in time. Even if it did come late, we didnt mind considering for a family pub, the chef had to cook for 6 adults and 4 children. The manager was kind to offer kid's size fish & chips and was prepared to charge 1/2 the value. The fillet steak was cooked perfectly to medium rare with the sides and the sauce was brilliant. The locals came in later with few friendly dog, which my 21month old son was fond to...and since then the dog just loved playing with us.I was a bit sceptical about this restaurant at the begininiing after reading the bad review and didnt want to experience the same but any business could have had a bad day, it doesnt mean its a business. Will go there again if I do drive down to that part of the world and would recommend to anyone who comes across this pub on tripadvisor.

Arrived mid afternoon and too late for Sunday lunch but we were pretty much able to 'pick and mix' what we wanted from the comprehensive menu. My rib-eye steak couldn't be faulted (I like it blue - easier said then done) and the imaginative mixed salad I had with it was one of the best I can remember. Its a pretty village pub anyway and on a hot summer day the restaurant was cool and full of character - a very relaxing Sunday afternoon.

4 of us decided to visit the Hit and Miss after reading reviews on here but unfortunately it really isn't up to the standards you are led to believe.

Not overly busy so unsure as to what happened. The specials board was missed and only found when i decided to walk around to see what had changed in the pub as it had been a few yrs since i had last been in.

Lovely roast dinner and more than generous portions with perfectly cooked fresh veg, yorkies and melt in the mouth beef and lamb. If you could fit it all in, the 3 courses for £16.50 would be a bargain but we just about managed roast and dessert! Very glad now we called in and we will return. The specials menu looked good too.

Decided to visit here for my wife's birthday after reading the reviews on here. Sadly it fell well short of what we'd been led to expect. The food was good, no doubt about that, but very poor service. There was a party of 20+ in and we were made to feel as though we were in the way. If 20+ diners is too much for you to deal with, either warn us when we phoned to book a table or refuse to take the booking. The menu as advertised on the website was nothing like the menu we were presented with (only 4 mains listed, 1 of which was off!). A specials board was hidden around the corner, which we had to find ourselves, nobody told us that another board existed or where it was.We wont be going back.

I've lived in Wiltshire pretty much all my life, but traveled extensively. I can honestly, hand on heart say that as a fussy eater, who generally prefers to eat at home, I've never found anywhere better than Hit or Miss. Since we moved closer to Chippenham, it's been the only place we've eaten. The food is out of this world, the best I've had anywhere (including many of the top hotels and restaurants across the world). I can heartily recommend the steak with Stilton and mushroom sauce - it's the best meal I've ever had. We love it so much, we've kept going back time and time again and we always bring friends and family whenever they visit - everyone loves it.

Such a nice traditional pub with a brilliant atmosphere. I've had the best fillet steak ever here and will highly recommend it to anyone. One pub I will definitely recommend for anyone visiting the area!

We ate here whilst staying at nearby caravan site and only wish we lived closer so it could be a regular dining out venue. Great fresh food, extensive wine list and fantastic staff. Regular menu is brilliant (best steak pie in a long time) and specials are good too - lovely crab risotto. You can eat in the restaurant area or (as we did) in the bar. We"ll definitely go back and have recommended it to a number of friends.

We were looking for a local place to visit for a good meal and I have to say The Hit or Miss didn't disappoint. The food (in particular the steak and ale pie) was fabulous! We were made to feel incredibly welcome and the service was impeccable.Excellent value for money and we will definitely be returning.

Lovely pub that I was introduced to by a friend who lives 200+ miles away but always calls in to this pub when in the area on business - now that really does speak volumes.I have visited a few more times with family for Sunday lunch and evening dinner.The food is really delicious and always spoilt for choice (I am still raving about a gorgeous meal I had there over 12 months ago!). Along with the traditional Sunday lunch there are always a tasty selection of alternative options.Service is always relaxed and never rushed even when the diner has that last minute indecisive moment about their two favorite dishes.Well worth a visit and look forward to going again :)

The Hit or Miss is a lovely Pub with excellent food. They have a good solid daily menu with an excellent 'specials' board. It is nice to eat outside when the sun is shining and inside when it mostly isn't! I take visitors fairly regularly at lunch times, who always enjoy the food. If the food and beer doesn't attract you then the barmaid just might make the difference! :o)

We've eaten here a few times, and have just had a brilliant Sunday lunch! Warm, welcoming and great helpful staff - it's got all of the ambience you expect from a local country pub - it was busy which tells you how good a place it is. The food is never disappointing and very reasonably priced - Looking forward to going again soon.

Totally agree with last month's reviewer. We are not exactly local but frequently make our way here for Sunday lunch and have never been disappointed.

I have eaten at the Hit or Miss a few times now and it is always a great evening out. The staff are very friendly and accomodating, the food is unforgettable and the atmosphere is brilliant. They are a prime example of what an village pub is supposed to be like! Warm and welcoming, great home made food and above all serves doombar!

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.

We came to Wilton for an evening for pizza, can’t fault the pizza and location however, not happy when the bill came. I don’t like it when a service charge is added without my permission. I want to add my own charge if I believe it is deserved. When I asked for the charge to be removed I felt tension from one of the servers who did not come to the table with my new bill. I did leave extra but it has to be on my terms not the terms of the location.

To be honest I was surprised to come on here and see some quite bad reviews for this place. We visited for an early dinner with our young family. The venue was quirky, imaginative and interesting. Great for our little children as there was lots to look at- big printed posted of fruits and vegetables and a great garden to explore which loops all the way around the pub restaurant. It really is a beautiful spot to enjoy. We were served by, who we assume, must have been the manager/owner. She was great. On it and prompt. Made great recommendations. The younger two servers were a little lacking in knowledge of items on the dishes- we overheard a male server tell a customer that pieces of romanesco were tender stem broccoli and that 'he doesn't argue with the chef' and the young female server came over to do our order when it was already done. Easily done and at least they were both polite and trying their best. The menu offers local produce, interesting flavour combinations and nice portions. The highlight for us was the ice Crean sundaes- we shared 3 between us and loved the combination of flavours and textures. We loved it, would recommend it and would love to return when next in the area. Thank you.
