The Queen's Head in Wiltshire

Had a lovely stay. Was here to see Joseph Arthur in this wonderful setting. Traditional English pub with fantastic views of surrounding countryside.

I stayed here overnight in one of the upstairs Airbnb rooms and had a wonderful experience. This pub is brilliant! The atmosphere is fantastic, and the owner is incredibly friendly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cosy and welcoming stay!

Lovely little pub just 20m on the bus away from Bath city. I went there with friends to celebrate my 21st! Great vibes, good drinks. We stayed the night there and although there is some noise from the main road, the owner provides you with ear plugs so no problem there. Perfect for a little getaway. Would recommend!

Fully recommend and will definitely be back. This is a quintessentially proper English pub. Great selection of real ales and other beverages. Great landlord and bar staff who we found extremely pleasant and accommodating. The accommodation was comfortable and in a great location. The outside space is lovely with views over the cricket ground. The outside space had a very relaxed feel and there was plenty of space to sit and enjoy the surroundings. We felt very welcome during our stay and will definitely be returning. Thank you for a great couple of nights.

Went in here for some last minute drinks with a friend. Walked up to the bar and asked what IPA’s they have. Unbeknownst to me the Landlord was sitting next to the bar and was for some reason rude to me because I’d asked for an IPA. He said something like - ‘We only have English beers here’ or ‘No - you can drink an English beer’ and the whole pub went quiet like ‘wtf has just happened’?! I felt SO taken aback and like ‘what did I do to deserve this’ that I was literally in shock. I’m never going here again - and I’ll be telling everyone I know this story about this guy and advising them to never go here. Credit to the barman on duty who kind of apologised for him, tho he shouldn’t have to - and it should be the Landlord apologising. Unbelievable.

Horrible staff, rude customers. If you want to die of old age before you get served then go here!! I would avoid at all costs. Slow and stupid.

Coming out of a pandemic, and visiting a local pub is a daunting prospect. But Dean & Damo have worked their socks off! The outside environment it’s not only beautiful, but very well designed to keep customers safe. Watching the football there this week has been brilliant, but unfortunately the staff had to deal with some difficult customers who didn’t respect the social distancing rules, and felt it was ok to kick over furniture, shout, & swear during the match. The landlord managed the situation very well, and was within his rights to remind customers of the rules not only at the pub but the government guidelines. Thank you for thinking of your customers on the whole, rather then just allowing a few to spoil things. Friday night BBQ night is also fab, with fresh homemade burgers made by the butcher in Box and popped on the BBQ or made in the kitchen if the weather is bad. If you are looking for a traditional, local pub with a family friendly atmosphere and lovely views- this is it! However if it’s a busy, loud sports bar with lots of shouting and swearing and staff that don’t care…. you will need to find another pub!

The bar manager here may be the most petulant egoistical Chap I've ever come across. Watched the football here, and he proceeded to turn the TV off after England scored and scalded at the occupants like a 58 year old Karen fuming at a 2 years old walking on her grass. I enquired as to why he turned it off at the half time whistle. He lied and stated 'furniture was being thrown' it wasn't at all, I will concede a few very cheap outdoor chair fell over as everyone was basking in the euphoria. That was it though. After confirming this wasn't the case he got mighty defensive knowing he was wrong (fragile ego indeed), and threatened to throw us all out...even after he accepted no chairs were thrown. Plenty of other nice pubs. Don't waste your money with a man who may be the most childish 60+ year old I've ever encountered. Pints are also flat 👍 and burgers stuck in the microwave. Nice view of the box wreck mind.

Such a friendly welcoming service and always very reasonably priced food. Great for a stop with the kids. From baguettes to jacket potatoes and the freshly made cheese scones with chilli jam are just addictive.

Standard of accommodation very low. We expected to share a bathroom however on the first visit were met by a discustingly dirty toilet bowl having been left by a previous user who hadn't cleaned their mess!!!.We reported this and kindly asked staff to sanitise the toilet as we were not prepared to use it. The room was not clean, furniture broken and unusable, skirting boards dirty, bar of soap had dirt in it and hand soap was heavily diluted with water with no label. No cups although tea bags, sugar and kettle were provided. Bed linen and towels were clean. See pictures.

We chose this pub because everything else was fully booked. Ambience, food and service were all average. Nothing to write home about.

Nous sommes venus un jeudi soir. Nous avons très bien accueilli avec un bébé et un enfant. C'était une ambiance très sympa. Nous avons bien mangés, les hamburgers et les frites étaient bonnes. La bière aussi. Comme tous les pubs, le choix de bière est étendu. Il y a un beer garden pour les enfants avec des jeux extérieurs. Je recommande.

A delightful country pub in the beautiful village of Box! A rare find of a traditional pub set up with excellent live music events. They’ve got a traditional pub menu, nothing fancy but with some great homemade items. We had the quiche and it was delicious! Had a great guest ale of Mango Ipa too. Would highly recommend this place if you’re a fan of the traditional pub with a friendly atmosphere that makes you feel at home. Will continue to visit again when we’re next down here!

Old fashioned inside. Not a great choice of beer. The ones we did choose weren’t well kept and tasted horrible. Could be quite nice on a warm day outside but aside from that I wouldn’t go back.

No frills, just a good place for a pint. You get an eclectic mix, so if you're a sensitive soul, you might want to give it a miss. Everyone is friendly, it just depends whether you mind bad language

Stopped her for lunch on route to Bath for the weekend. The beer (half a pint) was good, the chicken sandwich excellent, but the chips were a little soggy, probably been reheated. I should of said something at the time but I guess I am typically English.

C'est un pub anglais sans chichi. La nourriture n'est pas exceptionnelle, mais le patron, le lieu ( avec grand espace extérieur) et les clients sont sympas.

Nice pub and lovely bar garden. But I find Damian incredibly rude as when I go into the pub when his friends are there I don’t even get a “hello” also asked him if he was okay and his response was I can’t answer that in a very rude way.

We didn't eat at this pub but the atmosphere was great for a drink with the locals. 5 star service from the manager who we forgot the name of however looked and sounded like Nick Frost :) We came back the next night to have a drink.

We chose this pub as it was near our B&B. There was a reasonable choice of food at expected prices. Pleasant garden seating was available. Serving of food was uncomfortably slow, probably because we went at a popular time on a Saturday evening

Used this pub on 3 consecutive nights . Always had the same round £6.00 for a pint and half of cider. Attended for the last England game where I also ordered food at £18.00. with my usual drinks. However I was served by an older lady (may have been the landlady) whose customer service and hospitality skills left a lot to be desired. Mysteriously the drinks cost an extra 50p. I thought nothing of it at the time thinking the pub may have raised its prices to cash in on the football. however upon ordering further rounds throughout the evening at £6.00 it became apparent that the lady who originally served me had just added on another 50p. I wonder how many other unsuspecting non regular clients this may have been done to? So why didn't you challenge her I hear you ask. well the reason is, I did speak to her after ordering my food and still not receiving it an hour later. I politely asked her how long our meals would be. She rudely said she had no idea and the kitchen was very busy. I explained that the reason i was asking was just to check it hadn't been missed. Her attitude in speaking to myself left a lot to be desired. No so much as a smile or apology for the wait. I Why do people work in this trade if they cant even be polite or pleasant to the people who provide the trade. Luckily it was our last night in the area otherwise we would have taken our custom elsewhere

We spent a few hours in this proper pub yesterday ,looks a great locals place We ate tgere proper chips with a yummy steak and salad ,hubby had the lamb shank All freshly cooked GreAt beer as well

I stayed at Lorne House in Box with friends over the weekend and had an evening in The Queen’s Head on Saturday night. We wanted some nice traditional pub grub with a few drinks. This is a great old pub with friendly staff, 5 mins up the road and great value for money. They even bought out a little cake with a candle for one of my friends whose birthday it was! Food was delicious and didn’t come out immediately which gave us a good indication that it wasn’t done in a microwave! They have a pub cat called Snowflake who was just chilling at the table with us so no dogs are allowed.

Friendly welcome . Lovely beer garden. Very good food at reasonable prices. Staying in Box for few days was excellent local pub to relax and have a meal.

Lovely staff. Great food and reasonable prices for drinks and food. Lovely beer garden to sit in the sun when it's nice weather.

Nice local pub with music nights too. Stayed in Box for the weekend and had dinner here which was nice, no frills but was nice and good service. Portions were massive so probably could have shared the stir fry but can't complain!

Encantador, especialmente lasaña casera de ofrendas de gianni! ! ! Un montón de eventos, bandas locales los sábados y música un evento mensual llamado Schtumm que ha albergado muchas caras famosas a lo largo de los años!

4 colegas jubilados eligió el la cabeza de la reina en la casilla para nuestro almuerzo reunirse. El Queen's es como pubs, nada del otro mundo, un ambiente que solo puede ser madurado creado a lo largo de los años. Tres de nosotros elegimos mejor el coraje de elegir el tercero para nuestras bebidas. Guinness Excelentemente cuidadas. Tenían dos menús especiales además de una junta, así que estoy seguro la mayoría de encontrar una comida para todos ellos. Dos fueron atraídos a el desayuno con patatas, si es necesario. Esto demostró ser una buena opción. Los otros tenían huevos y jamón y sobresaliente y huevos con patatas fritas tanto. Los platos estuvieran vacías, siempre es una buena señal. La joven camarera tenía una personalidad agradable que contribuyó al disfrute de nuestro almuerzo. El pub inglés es única en el mundo y si os gustan los usamos o desaparecer! ! Vale la pena una visita si quieres un buen pub inglés.

The atmosphere of the pub was warm and friendly, there was even a hotel cat! The food was superb and the service was prompt and professional.

Tardamos más de una hora y media para conseguir una porción de patatas fritas y luego había unos 6 patatas fritas en el fondo del plato. Hambre que tuve que ir a comprar basura de la estación de seguridad gasolina.

De keuze van het eten is wat beperkt. Niet onlogisch voor een pub. Gezellige dorpspub en vriendelijk personeel.

Paramos en nuestro camino y recibió un gran servicio. El personal era agradable y nos cuidó, aunque había un montón de clientes locales y turistas. La comida era deliciosa y el precio muy razonable. Sopa de zanahoria y tuve mi marido tenía la baja de bistec especial! Muy bueno! Ambiente encantador, muy agradable.

I called for lunch prior to walking along the MacMillan Way and fortunately it was Monday where I had a two course lunch for £6, probably the best value meal I have ever had. All the essentials were there: hot water in clean toilets, friendly atmosphere and an excellent home cooked meal.

Best home cooked food I've eaten not out of a packet would definitely stay here again staff very helpful and friendly room clean and tidy

Lovely food, nice twin room. Great views from our room. Well keep grade 2 listed building. Will come again if in area.

We stopped off here on the off-chance and were wonderfully surprised - staff were friendly and helpful; food was beautifully cooked - best beef I've had in ages, great desserts; atmosphere and interior was warm and pleasant. All very reasonably priced.Highly recommend.

Went here for a couple of drinks and watched the rugby , very friendly pub and reasonable price drinks , big tv for watching sports plus a pool table , all you need for a pub .

Stayed at an apartment a 2 min walk from this little gem. Box is beautiful and this cosy old fashioned pub was perfect for food after a heavy days shopping in Bath at the Christmas Market. It looks maybe a little harsh on the outside, but hungry and tired we called and asked if they did food, and told the kitchens closed at 9. We entered to a very friendly welcome from the barmaid and either owner and manager and instantly sat down and given menus and served our drinks. It was a true old fashioned english pub, the pink painted relief wallpaper on the walls, the wooden panelling on the bottom half of the wall, bench seats in the windows, red velvet on the chairs and dark wood beams and a separate bar with a pool table. It was warm cosy and welcoming we instantly felt at home as if we drank there regularly which was lovely. Considering it was a group of 4 women, ranging from 38 to 70 and we felt very at home. We ordered our food from the homely and enticing selection, being told all meat came from the butchers we had passed on the walk to the pub. We had between us steak, Daves Burger and the steak and kidney pudding. Admittedly the length of time it took to come was long, about 50 minutes, but my god was it worth it! It was all freshly cooked and the size of the rump steak and the tenderness of the meat was perfect for both the ladies who ordered it. The buyer was well seasoned and the steak and kidney pudding was in proper suet and enough for 2 and the meat was tender and gravy meaty. However the Chips, were something else, like a mix between chips and roast potatoes, we could have all eaten them till we exploded. But not the best bit, with free flowing drinks we had desert (ice cream yummy!) from a great selection, at £1.50 each, and asked for the bill. for four of us and all drinks included it was less than £70. We asked if this was right and it was. It was so good we went back the next night. The second night, the wait for food was a little longer (just over an hour), but the welcome was still good and food again didn't disappoint. Again the bill was well below £70. We believed the delay was due to the care of the cooking. As long as you know you will need to pre-order or turn up an hour before you will be hungry to order, it is perfect. The pub is so comfy the hour will pass before you know it. If I could pick the pub up and move it to the South of England I would be there most nights of the week. I will go back without hesitation. The English Old Fashioned Pub is a dying bread. Make sure you support this little gem!!

My partner and I visited this pub for dinner. Beer tasted awful, food was cold and overpriced, staff very rude. Won't visit again

Décoration et ambiance pub anglais avec des gens du coin ....Ce n'est pas le meilleur fish and chips qu'on ai mangé en Angleterre, assiette simple mais le rapport qualité prix est la.Au niveau des desserts il y avait plus de qualité et de raffinement. C'est un pub ou c'est l'occasion de tester les desserts !Prix trés doux, endroit sympa !

Schöner, kleiner , uriger Pub! Nette Atmosphäre und freundliche Leute!! Wunder bar für einen netten Abschluss eines schönen Tages in England.

Stayed here whilst on tour with a band in the South West. The pub is excellent in all respects. We arrived early Sunday morning and were able to get into the room after a long drive through the night. Very clean, spacious family room which was perfect for our needs.Ate here on more than one occasion, and the food was well priced and well cooked. Especially enjoyed the double trouble steak - great hangover cure! Beer good, and a great beer garden in which to enjoy it. All the staff were great - friendly, helpful & chatty at all times.Would thoroughly recommend this place! Thanks

Very helpful and attentive service. Good atmosphere.Pre booked event with great communication.Everyone enjoyed meal from age 3 to 90.Would use again. Recommended.

Only popped in to kill some time while my friend had a haircut next door. What a wonderful little place, 2 good sized bars one slightly more towards an eating area. Greeted by the most lovely bar lady, who was bright and cheerful, polite and eager to serve. Although I didn't eat there the food served looked good wholesome fare, which I look forward to trying. We will be popping in after our dog walks for sure!

We called in for dinner after the Indian on the same road couldn't seat us. This place was much more fun! Great service from all the very friendly staff, veg lasange and lamb shank were both delicious, good choice of cheap desserts (two of us, two courses each, two drinks each, came to around £35). I liked the screens showing what was going on in the music room behind, which was being piped through the pub speakers - Bill Smarme and The Bizness is a band we won't forget in a hurry.

Came for a meal as a 4, really enjoyed the double trouble steak offer. Steak was delicious and cooked to perfection. Staff were friendly particularly the blond waitress who was extremely helpful. would recommend and will be back!

Went for a meal when we were staying in a B&B nearby. Quite small but very friendly atmosphere. Good choice of food which was really nice and great value.

We went to this pub after staying in the village for a night, it is a nice pub, with a decent selection of drinks and really good food, all at a reasonable price.

Looks nothing from the outside but the food was really good. We had a Sunday lunch with tender home- cooked beef, fresh carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and mange-tout, with extra gravy. Very nice. So good we went back for another meal later in the week. Staff very friendly and helpful.

We seem to live in a world of pretentious wine bars and restaurants where you spend through the nose for a tiny plate of food and the staff are just waiting to get rid of you to file in the next lot of custom. This place reminds us how it's nice to sit down, relax, enjoy a good pint, eat hearty food and talk to the staff and locals about anything and everything. I spent a week in and out of this place and I did try other places nearby but I just couldn't help but keep coming back to this one.A rare gem in the heart of the countryside.

I like a good real ale. It. was not that good ..and very dirty. Would not eat there cats in yhe bar.

Un pub magico, per atmosfera e cordialità. Si respira l'aria della vera Inghilterra, tutti molto gentili e disponibili. Mangiare tradizionale buono e gustoso. Da visitare per passare qualche ora in assoluta pace e tranquillità a parlare con tutti quelli che ti siedono accanto.

We came in here after a long walk on a Sunday. A nice friendlyAtmosphere. And the one member off staff that was there was so nice and Friendly. He even booked us a taxi. We will be back soon

Came here after a long walk and visiting the caves in Box. Played some pool...What a great atmosphere, cosy and friendly. Very welcoming, staff very amenable. Had a lasagne, traditional, filling and warming after a lovely day in the country! A classic old pub. I will be coming back for sure.

Nice simple food and good quality, and good value for money. Land lord.very friendly and could not do enough for us. We even had the company of the pub cat called dog. who was very friendly too. Well worth a visit.
