The best restaurants in Eastcott Swindon South West

The waitresses were amazed, I dropped off a cake for after our meal, and balloons for the table, which they did for me. All our meals were delicious and tasty. Great service and a good price. Thank you everyone

I went to the Merlin pub for some drinks and food, the service was top tier I couldn’t fault it one bit would definitely recommend 👍

Terrible service for ordering take away. I was advised to pickup in 20 minutes. I arrived after 20 minutes with my dog so waited outside after popping my head around the door to say I was collecting a takeaway and what the order number was. The front of house said she would get it and I would have to wait outside as I had a dog. I had no intention of going into a food establishment with a dog but just said ok! She talked and talked to a customer and after a further 20 minutes waiting outside I asked her where my order was. She went and collect from an orang just eat zip up bag. I stated at the time so has it just been sitting ther getting cold to which she replied that it had only just been put in the bag. True enough as soon as I got home which was a 5 minute walk from Chennai Dosa the order was stone cold! I rang to tell them this to which the same woman just kept saying it wasn’t cold then said dosa’s are not supposed to be warm. My entire order was cold. I usually love ordering from here and going in to eat. It’s a shame that one careless and lazy employee can ruin this experience. Will not be ordering from them again!

Yet again an amazing experience here. A busy Saturday night yet the staff were so attentive and focused on customer service. We tried different meals to other visits and were not disappointed. Excellent food, a great atmosphere and an excellent customer experience. It may only be my third time there but 10/10 to all the staff at The Khyber

We have eaten in the Khyber a number of times, and the service has always been exceptional. We visited with 2 friends on 1st March for a birthday meal to a really busy restaurant. The food was amazing and the staff were so organised and friendly. They brought out a lovely cake and offered complimentary drinks (a nice touch). Thank you to the highly organised friendly staff who do a great job 🙂

This is the best cocktail bar in town. The guys here are the top notch crew. I come down here as I live quite close. The pressure is on due to the time of year. The manager, obviously stressed, but still gave me eye contact and smiled. 5☆. I'm an elderly woman enjoying a glass of wine but I don't feel awkward or that I shouldn't be here. I've worked in night clubs and bars for 52 years and yes I did lie about my age but these guys have it sorted. I cannot recommend them enough.

Me and my friends are regular customers and they always throw in prawn crackers. They must have a new staff called Nicola and because we were £1.70 off the £30 she said no. We’ve always have been given these. When I questioned it she was abrupt, rude…absolutely shocking after we’ve spent so many orders with my friends at china kitchen. Terrible customer experience.

We ate in the magnificently decorated bar and my choice of food, the venison steak was pretty good. The service staff were very pleasant and the bar had a choice of excellent cask ale. It is probably not the cheapest place around, but we were pleased to have found it and had a very nice meal.

Although the food was very nice it was soured by the standard of table we were given. We had to stare at a brick wall which made it very difficult to have a conversation. They refused to move us as they needed space between tables yealt we were placed very close to a table of 9 people. The waitresses kept knocking the chair of my disabled friend causing her great discomfortable. Will never go again

Myself and partner celebrated our birthdays here with a Sunday roast and drinks with friends and family. There were over 20 of us in total and everyone said how lovely the food was. Great portion sizes. Home cooked and all orders came out one after the other. Service was amazing. Thanks all. We had the best afternoon.

First timer here, and I’d say the food and service was on point. Was surprisingly empty when we walked in (about 6pm on a bank holiday) and so was a little weary at first, but once we ‘settled in’ and started eating, we were more than content. Prices are a little steep, but I’d argue this is quality over quantity; even though we certainly had quantity as well. I’d be amazed if anyone could sit through four servings as the menu lays out. Decor was good, food obviously, cheesecake uncertain (I made the mistake of ordering when already full, would’ve probably enjoyed it more otherwise). Didn’t catch her name either, but a shout out to the waitress (youngish with presumably dyed blonde hair) who was pleasant and welcoming. Quite likely to return here if ever in the area.

I’ve been told by many people that this was the place to go for fish and chips in Swindon, and they were right! Just wished I’d started coming here earlier. This place is the best by a mile, and I’ve eaten in the majority of fish and chip shops in Swindon so you can take it from me. The only thing that lets them down is they don’t take card payments in the shop, but you can pay online and order ahead. The fish is lovely (cod), good portion size in lovely crispy batter. The chips were thick cut and crispy (loads of scrumps too) and the curry sauce is the best I’ve had since my local in Greenmeadow changed hands from Mandarin Fish Bar to Fish and Chips @ Greenmeadow. I don’t give out 5 scores for much but this place thoroughly deserves it. The shop itself is nothing to look at, but the best ones always are. It’s tucked away down off of Groundwell Road, a proper old fashioned establishment in amongst Swindon’s old terraced houses. Staff are friendly and managed to arrange 12 orders seamlessly and all correct. In summary, it’s the best around for me. Worth the drive from any part of town.

Visited with friends for the bottomless brunch, £20 for a starter and side or a pizza, along with all you can drink (a choice of 4 cocktails, a lager and Prosecco) for 2 hours, an incredible deal, great value for money, the food was amazing! Deal is slightly more expensive later on the day but still amazing value! Staff were so lovely and kept bringing out the drinks as soon as we’d finished, not like some ‘all you can drink’ places where they are stingy on the alcohol. Some of the best cocktails we’ve tasted, will defo be back soon, even for just for the food, everything they were bringing out looked lovely. Toilets were lovely and clean, as were the rest of the restaurant. Not like some places where the menus and tables are grubby etc. Recommend this to anyone.

I have eaten at Abe's a number of times and I have always enjoyed a quality meal. Yesterday's vegetarian tali must have been one of the best ever; it was beautifully present and the dishes were all so different and each one bursting with flavour. The marsala chai was pipping hot and delicious. I highly recommend Abe's restaurant for top quality Southern Indian 'street food'.

This place is a joke, the food is not Chinese but some sort of home made mess. I ordered a chow mein and what turned up was far from that. Instead of the traditional flat style noodles they had used supper noodles, no bean sprouts just what looked like it had come straight out of a plastic pot. We had ordered other dishes but every dish was the same and drenched in sweet and sour sauce. Great if you have ordered sweet and sour but if not then its a bit disappointing to say the least. Would avoid this place like the plague
