The best restaurants in Swindon South West

For the price you pay for a three course meal including a drink the food was fresh, tasty and definitely value for money but the service by Emilia was superb. Attentive but not pushy, courteous and always considerate. Emilia is worth her weight in gold and Beefeater should be proud of the service she provides excellent thank you

Went for a friends birthday meal, expected the worst as last time I was here was years ago back when I was little I’m now 21. I can gladly say it was really good! I ordered a cheeseburger with chips and every bit of the burger was delicious and the chips were spot on, ate the lot. Then for pudding I had brownie with ice cream and this was sickly but so good, didn’t manage to eat all of it due to how rich it was but still good. Overall I’d give this restaurant a 8.5/10

Gemma and Cath are very good excellent service food is good I enjoy going to this pub especially the quiz. Thank you Caroline

We was a bit wary of coming here for the evening as the write ups were bad,arrived Friday night and the 3 young ladies behind the bar was a credit to the place,we booked in easy by one of the 2 sisters and enjoyed a lovely evening drinking,each girl knowing exactly what we ordered when going to the bar,next morning we ate breakfast and was served by a really happy chap who was asking the guests what they had planed for the day,and showed so much attention to what people said,I was shocked to find out he was the person people moaned about as being rude,you couldn’t be further from the truth,keep up the good work Barry and staff

Went this evening for dinner, food was very good. The service let it down .We felt very rushed we hadn't quite finished our starters when, the young girl came over asking are you finished, then began taking the food away. It was the same with the duck course. We hadn't finished and, was asked are you finished. It was obvious we hadn't finished. It's a Tuesday evening we booked the table. Only 5 tables were occupied. We went out for a relaxing meal it was anything but relaxing. It's definitely gone downhill since previous visits.

Assistant in the training phase with very poor knowledge of German, which led to the sandwiches being incorrectly placed. Preparing a SubMelt ended in a wet mess.

We ordered Smokin Jack burger meal and the home run burger meal. Both really lovely. Then pudding we ordered strawberry ice cream and chocolate fudge cake with vanilla ice cream. The staff are really friendly and make you feel very welcome. It's our go to place for a meal out.

Myself and my husband attended the buffet venue for our 2nd anniversary and the food was fresh and full of amazing flavours that staff where absolutely brilliant polite and welcoming made sure we where comfortable sitting where they put us and what more can I say 10 out of 10 for this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great place to stay ! Lovely rooms, very clean and good facilities. Friendly staff and great quality food, one of the best breakfasts ever. Fantastic evening meals, would highly recommend to all. Second visit to this place but will definitely be back next time we visit the area. Well done to all the staff, excellent service and excellent staff and a very good manager !

I meet up with a group of friends in this bar and we always feel welcome whilst having drinks and sometimes food. What is SO GOOD about visiting the Goddard's Arms is the friendliness of all the staff that serve behind the bar. They always greet us as soon as we come in and, if they don't see us at the beginning, they add a hello when they pass. Jack and Ben, Will and Darren and not forgetting Susie and Hannah are exceptional and they always make us feel relaxed enough to stay for the whole afternoon! We never feel we have to vacate our table and relax into the atmosphere created. Well done to the staff and keep the good work up.

Decided to visit Nando’s Today and have lunch outside due to regulations.The welcome could not be described as a welcome the person was rude and was not interested we were told to sit and order on line tried to get online to order but not...

Came here last night, was staying nearby and read some good reviews. Well I have to say...food was outstanding, service and welcome was lovely...don't expect a fancy resturant as its not that, but the food was fresh , tasty and plenty of it. Extensive menu and they were all so friendly and accommodating. Value for money, second to none! Would have paid triple for what we had somewhere else!

I’m not sure what they pump into this food but it surely can’t be good.. after about 2/3 small dishes.. you’re finished! It’s all you can eat but you won’t be able to eat any more! I believe this chain has closed now anyway and the owner is running the Peatmore branch instead.. which seems to be the same setup.. Gotta make their money back somehow! 😅💸

Great night out . Lauren our waitress is a great young lady she got the measure of us very professional and friendly thanks for looking after a group of olds

Very expensive, 5 people, no starters, no side dishes, no deserts, no alcoholic drinks and the mac'n'cheese main meal was no bigger than a side dish. £100 !
