The best restaurants in Chippenham Hardens and England Wiltshire South West

Stopped by Parson’s Bakery today, and honestly, it was a pretty frustrating experience. First off, they only took cash on that day, which was inconvenient but understandable, so I went to a nearby ATM. My original total came to £8.60, but the staff told me they didn’t have exact change and asked if I’d like to add something to my order. I figured, fine, I’ll get a loaf of bread for home. Here’s where it got confusing—I paid with two £10 notes, but somehow only got £5 back in change. I should’ve had close to £4 more in change. Plus, the staff were dismissive and just plain rude about it, which didn’t help. The food didn’t help, either. My items were served cold, and the latte was so watery it barely tasted like coffee. Overall, a disappointing experience and definitely wouldn’t recommend.

The seating area is within the shopping centre, so first impression screams no frills. Which is exactly what I was expecting. I just wanted a quick coffee and a simple lunch. I ordered a latte and a jacket potato with cheese and coleslaw. It cost £11.80. There was a bit of hanging about at the counter. It seemed like no one was really doing any one particular job, All scrabbling around getting in each others way. Anyway coffee was as made and I found a seat to wait for my food. I’m not sure really what to say about the food. I’m trying to find a positive! It was delivered by a pleasant waitress who was to be fair smiling and she did ask if I had everything I needed. So job well done for her. Simple should always be done well, I think. A jacket potato should be piping hot, salad should be crisp and fresh, coleslaw should be nicely chopped and seasoned or fresh from a container! The cheese should be melting from the heat of the spud right. Bonus points for a nice crispy potato skin. None of the above applied! Barely warm potato, struggling to even melt the butter. Limp, browning salad, almost naked chunks of cabbage and carrot for coleslaw. The cheese I can only describe as a light sprinkle of yellow dust. No bonus points for the leathery potato skin. Add this to weak lukewarm coffee. A Freezing cold seating area, pretty rubbish food and coffee makes it a no return for me.

Arrived early evening for a meal warm and friendly welcome. Food service was excellent and the food was delicious. Great prices too, we live in Bath and the restaurants there are too fancy and expensive would rather visit here for the more personal experience and great food.

Waited with no one in front of me for 3 members of staff to have a chat about dogs for an unacceptable amount of time before someone even acknowledged me let alone took my order. Out of the 3 only one of them was actually working..customer service skills nil

aww guys I hate to have a moan, but what's happened to the curry sauce? It was like dipping chips in tea

Perfect for a day trip to Bath on the train!

Nice beer garden. I didn't rate the inside much. It's a classic locals were the regulars prop up the bar so it's annoying trying to get served. There are others places I'd rather spend my time though if you're looking for "an everybody knows your name" place then this might suit you.

Great take-away in Chippenham. Food always very tasty.

Had a freat evening here the staff were friendly as were the regulars. Good for Karaoke on Saturday nights. LGBTQ+ friendly

Sehr gutes Auswahl, hohes Qualitätsniveau, gepflegtes Ambiente, Top-Service, vollständige Bar. Jederzeit wieder!

Popped in and ordered myself a white Americano to take out, which unfortunately proved to be absolutely tasteless, just like drinking hot, milky water. Recent reviews would suggest I have been unfortunate, but I won't be back.

Lovely staff. Good delivered quick and super yum!!

We were recommended the hotel by a friend. It was easy to find and fairly central in Chippenham the room we had was excellent, it’s an old 17th century building so has the creaks and conditioning of a building of its age , breakfast was easy and varied having a buffet / help yourself style . even as old as the building was our bathroom was modern and well presented. Had a swim every day , the gym attached had all the usual equipment, would recommend again, the staff were pleasant and helpful

Worst Chinese food ever. Never order from here. It was late and tepid the food was watery and the meat tough as old boots. The Delivery driver was rude and obviously expected a tip.

Our go to Chineses spot in Chippenham. Always friendly, tasty food and very quick service. The Singapore noodles are particularly nice
