The best restaurants in Ridgeway Swindon South West

Sadly, all the good days I've had working there have been spoiled by the fact they regularly made it next to impossible to visit because their primary business of film studios took precedent, and then they shut up shop almost overnight and months later, I'm still waiting for my refund, despite being told it's on the way. Disgusting behaviour

My wife and I were looking to break a journey from Kent to Bristol and didn't fancy stopping on the M4 services for lunch. She looked up a "dog-friendly pub near junction 15" on Google whilst en route and The Bakers Arms was recommended. We were greeted extremely warmly, including the dog, (who was given a biscuit). Service was brisk and cheerful throughout. The food was lovely: ham egg & chips and Bakers Arms famous battered cod & chips - and generously portioned. Great country pub. It was good to see enough people drinking and dining to create a nice atmosphere. Bradbury village itself is full of character and all in all a thoroughly enjoyable stop for lunch.

A delightful little find on route home. Cosy country feel , warm and welcoming .Good pint to !

Clean, efficient friendly service, excellent

We live in the village but hadn’t had a meal here for a while. I don’t think it will be long before we’re back. We really enjoyed our meals and the lack of faff on an overly-long menu that we often find. We ate in the bar rather than the restaurant as the bar was warmer and was expected to be quiet. It soon became quite full and noisy owing to football (don’t ask me what) but it was all friendly and fun and we could have retreated to the restaurant if we’d wanted - it’s been well thought out in that way.

First class meal in a lovely countryside setting. Good service and excellent food, would strongly recommend

Very strange menu nothing really to my liking and nothing for children either so it’s not somewhere to go with family…… ok ale but the menu needs to be bigger & nothing for a vegetarian my wife has recently become vegetarian for health reasons so we couldn’t eat here & don’t think we will return

We had a great stay along with a meal and drinks. The Village Inn is excellent. They were very friendly and chatty to us, with the Landlady telling us lots of interesting things. Super cheap. Quick service. Nice food. And Liddington is a real chocolate box village with thatched cottages, just between the Marlborough Downs and Swindon. It you want an enjoyable trip, cannot recommend to too highly. We can't wait to be back. And especially good if you are veggie or vegan or a pet owner, however get the impression that they would do anything for anyone to make them feel at home.

The BEST BURGER I have had in a long time. Both my mother and I visited for a belated Mother’s Day meal and we were not disappointed. The onion rings were perfectly crispy too! A massive thank you Max for our superb dinner and John for overseeing! Linda made us feel warm welcomed. A charming small pub perfect for all occasions.

Fantastic Sunday lunch. We booked this for lunch with friends. It was really good. Great staff and food was excellent.i had the roast beef and it was one of the best. Toast potatoes were perfect and the beef thinly cut and rare. Staff were attentive and the pub had a nice atmosphere.

Absolutely fantastic service and the staff were so kind and asking how my dad was doing in the hospital thank you for letting me rant and take my mind off the situation xx

I am surprised by the negative reviews. Family and friends have used this resturant for many years both eating in and takeaway. Service can sometimes be a little slow but only at the very busiest times and it can be very busy. One of our favourites in the summer is a day at the beach with friends and place an order as we leave the beach for collection as we arrive home. We live fairly close to the Burj so this is perfect end to a day. In my opinion some dishes can be hotter than their ranking system especially the House Specials but flavour is always excellent.

We visited the Brewers for the first time in many years today!! When we lived in Swindon, it was one of our go to places for lunch in the vicinity. Both of our lunches were wonderful, we both opted for their “pot” meals, my partner had the lamb tagine and I went for the Hungarian Beef pot, absolutely delicious The staff were attentive and the venue had a great atmosphere!! Well worth a visit
