Limited opening times so missed it on the first night of our 2 night stay but open the next night. Shame as it was the cosiest, friendliest pub we found. Also dog friendly. Nice garden and modern and cosy inside. Ten minute walk from town but worth it, Mainly locals but welcoming.

After returning from our gig at the Canteen in Bristol we decided to stop off in Chippenham for a bite to eat. It was just our luck that we came across the Pack Horse a delightful little pub which met our needs perfectly. Jo and Tony were incredibly kind and served us up with 4 very hearty meals and even allowed us to use the jukebox for free. With four happy bellies full of scampis, this ideal pit stop left us feeling fully recharged for our show tonight at the Victoria in Dalston at 9:30pm.

Asked some locals where was good for a bite to eat, and was directed to the Pack Horse. I'm not sure what locals consider good, but this isn't is. Greasy cheap burger, the worst pub chips I have ever seen. It's a beautiful building, nice beer, but all of us felt queezy after eating here.

I will never be returning to this place as they treated me like rubbish and was disrespectful to my whole family when we went in the landlord was nothing but rude to myself and my disabled mother with sly and horrible remarks , you couldn’t pay me enough to want to return to this place and I urge others to avoid by all means

What a fantastic traditional pub. Great selection of beers and ciders. Very welcoming staff, a lovely old building, pool table, plenty of outdoor seating and the best priced in all of Chippenham. Would highly recommend popping in for a pint or two and some delicious food. Just a note, I've heard karioke nights can get lively..

DO NOT visit. I was accused of taking drugs whilst using the toilet by the landlord. I was enjoying my evening with my partner until this happened. This WAS my local where I spent a lot of money. I will not return again.

It's location is absolutely sublime, surrounded by a combination of buildings both new and old that have this building nestled within it. The drinks are fairly limited in variety but it's to be expected by a lovely local that's on a road side. Having said that I did have a beautiful Thatchers pint, a line within thatchers I've never had before which really hit the spot. It has a lovely and eclectic handful of locals and a pool table to match. And not to mention its massive beer garden. Marvellous place

Not only are the venue breaking every covid regulation by not encouraging track and trace and encouraging locals not to wear masks but there is no respect for social distancing. Food is awful, things cooked days before and re-heated for serving. Also heard from the locals that the mutton landlady is known for flirting with all the men and several affairs with whoever will pay her attention which was obvious from the evening, very desperate woman and a pub with no atmosphere, food that makes your stomach turn and a very unclean premises

One of my favourite pubs in the Wiltshire area. Ian and Michelle are the loveliest of landlords and the atmosphere is always very welcoming and family-friendly. Great selection of alcohol and the hard work they have been putting in over lockdown has made the place look even better. Would recommend to anyone who lives in the area or is visiting.

As it was on the Cask Marque Ale Trail, on this occasion I was only there for the beer and I can aver, without equivocation, the Otter Elf was in noble condition. The pub has some history and the landlord can lay claim to a haunting experience - and that's nothing to do with the excellence of his cellar. With much work done to improve the outside area, on a lovely day (remember those?) the beer garden will be lovely place to sup and munch.

very unfriendly manager ( think his name is Ian) customer service is clearly not on his agenda!.. having been there a few times thinking his demeanour might change.. ( maybe he was stressed on the first day we visited) .... nope it’s safe to say he’s pretty consistent with his lack of people skills... best kept on a building site or in the kitchen out of the way.... will definitely not be returning...

Great spot but is very much the 'locals scene'. Got plenty of looks for just being there. They had the football playing when we arrived so it was packed and incredibly loud. The garden retreat was well needed and much more pleasant than inside.

This is the best traditional locals pub in Chippenham. Cons bit out the way from town centre. I'm not sports orientated so a bit too sports TV ish at times for my tastes. However they have a juke box that can play separate areas including the big well tended garden. Separate kids playing area. Dog friendly and big car park. Good basic food. A great family safe pub.

Absolutely dreadful! Advertised a la carte menu replaced with a 'bar' menu. Took the waiter 15 minutes to bring a menu and ask if we'd like drinks 40 minutes for food to arrive which was not hot. The pork belly my colleague had was wrapped in gooey fat not crackling, the pumpkin sauce was a teaspoon of orange 'something' and the seasonal veg was mashed potato and some peas. The chicken burger was deep fried and tasted of old fryer fat as did the 'tepid' skin in chips. Presentation of the burger was non existent and the two tiny leaves of lettuce were brown. This was fed back to the waiter when he finally returned to our table his response was he'd mention it to the Chef. The after dinner treat of sticky toffee pudding was solid and rubbery, not moist. The tiniest bit of ice cream and a token gesture at the sauce all was tepid. The dining room was cold and drafty. The decor tired and wall paper peeling off the ceiling and walls. Utterly awful experience with nobody interested in the overall shoddiness of the service and food. Really disappointing, especially as this is the closest hotel to work. A real missed opportunity for this Hotel and Restaurant.

Stopped off for a late lunch/early dinner. So much to choose from. Had the steak and ale pie with mash and the steak and kidney pudding with mash. Both delicious, hot and plentiful. Amazing value for money. Staff very attentive and friendly without being overbearing. Lovely place for families, dog friendly too. 5 star on all fronts.
