The Winterbourne in Wiltshire

Absolutely incredible food , I had the lamb shank on a bed of truffle mash it just melted of the bone amazing. Highly recommend.

One of the best food I ever had. Lovely atmosphere and great service. Definitely will back soon again xx

Lovely food the roast dinner was very good, service good and fairly priced will be back

Went here for Sunday Lunch. The food was lovely. Plenty of fresh vegetables, which were nicely presented. The restaurant was very busy but the service was very good. Will definitely return.

Great pub, excellent service - loved the veggie/vegan options and the food was pretty good. Thanks a lot.

We went for a lovely Sunday dinner as a family of 6! Great service and very nice food! 🤩

Front of house staff helpful and friendly, selection of choices plenty and varied, I ordered fish and chips with homemade mushy peas, bad choice as it turned out, my wife ordered scampy, that dish looked good, I was wary when I saw that the batter on my fish only covered 2 thirds of the fish, the batter was very greasy, the mushy peas were disgusting, when I cut into the dish, not only was the underdone, the fish was not cooked thoroughly all the way through, basically, this plate of food was unfeasible and should not have been allowed to leave the kitchen, I spoke to the waiter who had issues understanding what I was talking about, the manager arrived and I explained the situation, she appeared to give the impression of "oh dear another complaint ", I was offered a replacement meal which I didn't want but took it anyway which in the end was wasted. Certainly, not to the standard expected.

Excellent in every way! Would highly recommend, great for gluten free too!

Really nice food and polite staff. Reasonable price as well as quick service. Large outside seating area.

We had a lovely dinner here last night. The food was great, much better than I expected from a pub. My husband had sirloin steak which was cooked to perfection and I had the chicken burger. Our starters were very very good. Highly recommend the salmon in batter. Wine was good too. And we stayed overnight in our motorhome. To my delight I saw this pub is comnunity owned!

Popped in for late lunch had prawn and crab linguine sauce was to die for ( portion huge) .. Partner had the liver and bacon which he said was the best he'd tasted.. No room for pudding which was a shame as they had a great selection.. Service was great.. reasonably priced overall a great dining experience will definitely be back again and recommend to freinds and family

Great place and food! Highly recommend!

Came in for lunch and met by a wonderful waitress who was very kind and served us with a smile, we very much appreciate her service! Lovely pub, good food with fast service. Definetly recommend, will be coming back if in the area!

Lovely country pub, great food and calm every time I've visited. The Winterbourne is my go to spot for meeting up with family when in the area.

I’ve been using the Red Lion at Avebury on visits to the stone circle for many years but got my son to book the Winterbourne for nine of us this time. What a pleasant change. A six minute drive from Avebury, with a quiet peaceful atmosphere and much better food. Highly recommend it snd we’ll be returning.

My first visit to this community pub. Very good service and atmosphere. I went for the liver and bacon which I really enjoyed.

Found this place by chance. Ticked all the boxes for us and even the weather was perfect.

Very tasty roast. Well presented and hot.

delicious food, very friendly service

Very lovely meal for most of us. One not so good piece of fish was exchanged for another meal which we obviously had to wait for. Would have been a great gesture to have been offered a complimentary drink or credit for that but otherwise all good.

Fantastic food served in a great atmosphere... Couldn't ask for more - service great too!

A lovely pub with excellent food and outside spaces for when the weather is good. Attentive staff and light and airy restaurant.

Excellent food helpful and friendly staff

This is such a lovely welcoming pub. The landlady is very lovely and her staff are excellent. The food is fresh, delicious, good quality and well cooked and there is plenty of choice. It’s very dog friendly and we were brought water bowls and treats for our trio of furry friends. Service was with a smile and we didn’t wait long at all. We will definitely return. If you’re staying over there’s photos of some fun nights with the locals.

I booked a B&B in Avebury but failed to make reservations at the local pub/restaurant for our first night. The owner of our B&B made a call and was able to get us into this restaurant. So grateful for him. We drove about 15 minutes to get here. At first not to many tables taken but soon it filled up. The atmosphere was good. The food very good. I had pork and my wife chicken. The staff very attentive.

Landlord wasnt welcoming even when i was therand no cash in the till, the lay out of the new pub not for me i preferred when it was the white horse Inn..

Very pleasant, after a long walk along the Ridgeway. Good value for money, the omelette were very good. Pleasant staff. It's just up the road from Avebury, so if you can't get in there, try it, can't loose!

Love this community owned and run pub. Had a great experience here.

Best fish and chips ever. We were made very welcome. Lovely lunch. Thank you

Lovely Sunday lunch today nothing bad to say! Lovely selection of pubs which is amazing! Beer garden great for the kiddies too. Staff very friendly and helpful, just what you need from a village pub.! Shout out to Rich! The one and only 😂

I have to agree with all the best Sunday roast comments already on here, nothing else to add. The staff were excellent and the atmosphere was good.

A lovely dining experience, friendly and warm! Sunday roast was amazing, and we will be going back

Lovely people, and nice stop. There are a few vegan options on the menu, including a crumble dessert. There's a conservatory as part of the dining room. If you buy a meal you can, by arrangement, park your campervan overnight, though note there's no access to the toilets outside opening hours.

Indulging in the mouthwatering fish and chips at this establishment was an absolute delight. Each bite was bursting with flavor, leaving me craving more. The service was top-notch, with the staff being both attentive and helpful, enhancing the dining experience. The ambiance of the place was incredibly pleasant, providing a serene environment where one can enjoy the company of family, friends, or even relish some quiet solitude. Whether you're seeking a social gathering or a peaceful moment alone, this spot ticks all the boxes for a memorable dining experience.

A very nice cosy place in the heart of a nice part of the country side. Customer service is excellent. The staff is friendly and always welcome to answer some questions. Fish and chips was fresh and delicious. I do recommend it ❤️. Various types of ales and cider. The pub is owned by the community.

Food was great, staff were very friendly and helpful.

Great food, I have the spinach and mushroom sauce with a fried egg for start and then 24 day old steak with purple sprouting broccoli and pepper corn sauce GF too. Again I have to highly recommend for great food.

Sensible prices,great food and a good range of gluten free food. Friendly atmosphere too.

Another great meal at the Winterbourne. The staff are always so friendly and helpful.

Four of us had an amazing meal here. The food was piping hot, presented really well and absolutely delicious. There is a really ale on tap from a local micro brewery which was lovely. The restaurant was warm and not overly noisy. The staff were fantastic. Would highly recommend a visit here.

We visited here as a family with two children after Avebury stones. The Sunday roast was delicious. Could have eaten more but glad I had room for dessert 😋 The children really enjoyed their burgers. Great size portion for older ones. The outside play area was a bonus and the boat to play in was a definite hit. We will definitely be back!

Great place for lunch after a walk. Good choice and reasonable prices.

Wonderful country pub. Excellent food, great beer. Very friendly and helpful staff. Dog friendly, very dog friendly

Very nice country pub/restaurant, decent menu and nice beer. Service was quick, efficient, and friendly. The food was good, I ordered a steak which was cooked exactly as requested, and I am fussy. The toilets were very clean and well appointed.

Didn’t book today but we were seated and served very quickly I ordered off the menu and was accommodated easily Super pub and amazing food and staff Highly recommended

Great food, great service, even on a very busy Christmas night with only a few hours notice that we wanted a table.

Very pleasant and friendly atmosphere; food was very tasty and dietary requirements were met.

A nice place to meet relatives for lunch

Couldn't fault it even though busy were advised of slight delay but atmosphere and our company of course it was not a problem - hope our friends book again when we visit them in Marlborough next time

Nice friendly staff great sunday lunch very clean will b back

A beautiful Pub/Restaurant great atmosphere friendly staff plenty of things for the kids outside really top class food a definite go too place in a beautiful setting Top notch.

Went with friends all 4 meals were great, really good service even apologise that it food my take a little longer than normal because of a large customer order Great work, thanks

The Winterbourne. Winterbourne Bassett. A wonderful venue. The welcome presented to us and following level of service that we then experienced was in a word... Superb! Sunday lunch...Lamb rump and my lady had the Sea Bass. Fantastic. Even served up more roast spuds as I am a roast spud fiend. House red wine very nice and even had 0% Gin, so my lady was well pleased... A quality venue with quality staff and the other patrons also had any issues resolved in a thrice.. So if your a foody then I recommend it to all.

Always excellent. Never had a bad meal there and staff are so friendly and helpful.

Really nice plan. Helps that it is doggo friendly. Tasty food too

Very nice pub. EXCELLENT food very reasonably priced. Chips remained hot and very crisp. Staff very attentive without being intrusive. Highly recommended.

Chose The Winterbourne for our 70th birthday meal based on previous excellent meals there. A party of 15, we were given free choice from the menu which catered for all needs. The food and drink were superb. It was served with perfect timing by wonderfully cheerful staff - amazing considering there was another large party going on at the same time! Can't speak highly enough of our experience. Many thanks to all.

Just had lunch with three others and I must say we couldn’t fault the experience . I’m disabled with walking problems but no problem at all . Lovely staff excellent food and great atmosphere and very clean Recommended with out any hesitation and will be returning soon, Tnx Winterbourne

Our little Wednesday evenong dining trio has been eating out at various pubs/restaurants for about 15 years. We have a list of venues which we visit in rotation. We had the Winterbourne on the list back in 2020 but for some reason it dropped off the list. We thought we'd give it another try last night and very glad we did!. Things were looking good right from the time we arrived where I could not help but notice the immaculately kept garden.. a sign that somebody really cares! Next into the building where we were warmly greeted by the manager and shown to our table. The menus were handed to us.. they were clearly laid out and there was a wide choice whether it be meat or fish. There was also a specials menu. I decided on the Sea Bream, my wife had the Salmon and our friend had the Pork tenderloin. The food was delivered in good time. My Sea bream was the best fish dish I've had in a very long time, my wife loved her Salmon and our friend said the Pork tenderloin was exceptional .. high praise indeed and well justified. When everything else was so perfect if was a slightly surprised that when I asked for a fish knife I was told there were none available but in the grand scheme of things that's nothing. Let it be said I'm a very fussy customer. I don't give such compliments lightly or without good reason.. and I'm just as quick to complain if things aren't right but overall this dining experience to me fell into the category of fine dining.. I see somebody else said that the chef deserves a Michelin star and I would agree!.. I took the trouble to thank the owner before we left. We are so glad we returned after 3 years to find this lovely place. It's owned by the community and now it's back on our regular dining list. Your hard work and care stands out a mile.. Many thanks again. Let's hope this is the start of a great relationship. You provide the fantastic food.. we'll eat it and in return provide the praise.. and the business!.. You're on the regular list.. see you in 3 weeks.. looking forward to it already!

What an absolutely amazing venue, great food, fantastic atmosphere, brilliant staff. Really enjoyed the meal, felt very welcome. Alex the chef was awesome! Thoroughly recommended. Five stars!!!

We wanted to eat with some friends in a typical English place. Near the famous abbey stones. And this place was perfect. They treated us very well and the food was good.

Family lunch before my son went back to his base. Lovely food, freshly cooked in a kitchen by a chef you can see. Friendly staff decent prices and locally brewed beer. Altogether a great experience

Great place to meet up with old friends! Food delicious, good beer and pub sparkling clean. Looking forward to visiting again.

Friendly easy going staff. Very clean. Fish and was lovely. Can’t fault it. Just came across this place driving from Avebury back to London. Nice place to come even if you’re on your own. Feels very homely. And it’s community owned apparently. So that’s one successful saved gastro-pub.

The Winterbourne is a wonderful 'find'! It was recommended and we certainly weren't disappointed. A really lovely location, super beer garden and space for children to play, lovely garden room and in the pub itself everything was laid out nicely and the ambience was excellent, thanks to the cheerful, helpful staff. Needless to say, our meals were first class.

Brilliant experience! The sweet potato curry was recommended to us and was amazing, so compliments to chef Alex. The front of house manager was great too, so we'll definitely be back!

We had a lovely vegetarian meal. Would definately recommend. Many thanks to the Chef Alex. We are really looking forward to trying some of the other options from the menu.

I've been to this pub before and was very pleased with the food...but our son took us today for Sunday Lunch and we were doubly pleased. The Roast was perfectly cooked as were the vegetables, which unusual for busy lunchtimes. obviously cooked to order not standing around and going soggy. Great meal. Thank you. We will return

One of the best Sunday roast we've had in/around Swindon!

Zeer smaakvol gegeten Het eten werd mooi opgediend Vriendelijke en to-the-point personeel, Toiletten zien er verzorgd uit Restaurant ziet van buiten ook mooi uit Leuk dat er in de buurt een graancirkel was,

4 tiny wafer thin fatty pieces of lamb, three new potatoes and cold chopped red peppers. I waited for vegetables to arrive but there wasn't any. Service was glacial. I won't be returning.

Lovely location and service. The good was unfortunately below average, sorry.

Lovely, locally run Pub. Stylish Decor, good Food, friendly Staff. Safe, outside garden if the weather is good. *****

What a gem. Haven't been there since covid and went last evening. it's marvellous. Menu had great choice starters mains were all different from the usual and the chef made it a night to remember. Would definitely recommend. 100%

The best food around! Suprised this place hasn't got a Michelin star! I've had the pleasure on a couple of occasions to try the specials and WOW! Gordon ramsey would be impressed! The service is also amazing and top notch cannot fault anything. Its a MUST if your in the area

Booked Sunday lunch for 13 family as an early birthday celebration. We were looked after from the moment we arrived. Food was delicious served on hot plates, service from our young waitresses very friendly & efficient. Our grandsons made use of the outside play areas. Can recommend The Winterbourne 100%

Amazing food!!!! Reasonable prices, gorgeous surroundings and lovely atmosphere. Will definitely return again. Highly recommended 👌

It was very quiet when we went for dinner which suited us quite well. The food was absolutely stunning. Very excited to come back!

My first visit here and will certainly not be my last. The food was excellent, the service superb.

Visited The Winterbourne after walking the dogs on the gallops had an excellent 2 course lunch from their meal deal menu. The spicy lentil soup was absolutely yummy. We sat outside in one of the pods, but could have gone inside, with the dogs (as they are well behaved). The bespoke brewed beer: Winterbourne Pale was super and lived up to the standard I expected from the Broadtown brewery.

A really nice pub/restaurant. Great food and Maria, the owner, was an excellent hostess.

Really friendly village pub and superb food at a good price. Definitely worth a visit we will return. Highly recommend!

Lovely afternoon sitting in the sun outside the pub

Friendly staff, relaxing mood, good food. All you can want really. I had burger and chips and my wife had a baguette and chips. Both were very nice, particularly the burger. Had some interesting ales on offer. I went for a Brixton Brewery IPA which...

Only had beer but finding Brixton on draft was a nice surprise. Lovely outside area.

We a party of four met here for lunch on a Wednesday it was recommended to us by the couple we went with and what a god choice it was, the moment you walk in you are greeted in a professional and friendly manner, the...

We visited here for lunch, for the first time. Very pleasant surroundings. Quite an extensive menu with options for lunch. Daily specials were interesting, and also the two or three course fixed price lunch deals. I had the roasted Mediterranean veg. Risotto, which was tasty....

Fantastic food vibrant atmosphere thank you so much! Really enjoyed my birthday meal see you soon

Excellent setting, cosy with fantastic views. Food is affordable, delicious and the portions are generous. Try this place out if you're passing by.

I can't help thinking the personal may have been different when we had lunch. the restaurant was all but empty and though service okay I would not say warm. The food took about 40 minutes without any mention. As it was it wt was worth...

A good atmosphere, and spacious. Lovely food, not rushed.

First visit to The Winterbourne, what a find. You are greeted with a warm welcome from both the staff and the log fire. We all had roast dinners, very generous portions of meat, all served with roast potatoes and Yorkshire puds., plus plenty of seasonal...

Loved it! The food, service and setting were all top-notch: the Sunday roast was the best l can remember at a pub for years. The setting was comfortable, the staff were friendly and relaxed, and l thought the meal was exceptional value. Will definitely be back.

Excellent meal & well looked after.

This was our first time visiting the winterbourne. First impressions were good, it was nice and clean outside and the building itself has been looked after. We found the prices to be very reasonable and the quality of the food to be outstanding. Service was...

Sunday roast very tasty, well cooked and priced. Service is friendly and efficient. Very pleasant place for a meal. Will return.

A friendly welcoming village pub. As always excellent service received ,amazing food definitely would recommend.

We arrived on an unpromising Wednesday lunchtime in January. The pub was warm and the staff were very welcoming. We had traditional pub food, steak pie and chips. Proper pastry, excellent filling, good portion size and superb triple cooked chips. It was excellent and reasonably...

Turned up as a party of 7 plus 2 dogs, no booking, made to feel extremely welcome despite them being busy. We are all too full having enjoyed everything we were served!! Delicious food, with friendly and attentive staff. Thank you!
