The best restaurants in Fovant and Chalke Valley Wiltshire South West

We had lunch after a walk and had a lovely time. The food was good and the service and atmosphere excellent.

Located in the countryside, it had the local pub vibe, everyone was nice, the place was warm, the drinks were cold and the food exceptional. Could not recommend something in particular, because we had few dishes and one was better than the other. Also pets are allowed inside, which is awesome. Not regarding the location, if you are not staying at the Royal Oak, you need to book some transport in advance which is pretty expensive(we paid 65 pounds for a local gentleman to take us to and from the pub, for 8 miles in total). They have suggestions on their website.

We turned up without booking at midday on sunday last. Were greeted and found a table. The food was excellent as ever and so thankful for getting a table as the pub was heaving.

We went for Sunday lunch and had a lovely time. Comfortably warm room with underfloor heating and art work on the walls. We had some salt and bopper squid to share, which came with an Asian dip. We had a burger which came with excellent fries and tasty brisket, 2 fish and chips, with crispy batter and succulent fish with great tartar sauce and chips and a roast beef. My husband said if was the best roast he'd had for a long time with very well cooked accompaniments. We had some sorbet and a caffè latte pannacotta and a very nice cheese board. Service was excellent as well. We'll definitely be back!

Nice lunch but sadly we were the only people in the pub and so no atmosphere. The food was good and simple fare. Would go again for that. The waitress was helpful but seem eager to rush away everytime we ordered anything. This seemed surprising as there wasn’t anyone else there. The landlady seemed really fed up and was full of negative stories about the trade at her pub and the area. Didn’t give a good impression sadly.

A beautiful little cafe hidden in the Chalke Valley. Tucked away behind the shop they serve a great choice of local cakes and coffee. The Dorset Apple Cake is a firm favourite. The service is amazing, always friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is relaxed and warm. I would return anytime.

Rang to ask if they done food all day and was told yes, told them we would be about 40 mins, as travelling from Glastonbury , on arrival was told no they wasn't cook.. very pissed off..shame as being a pub owner of over 30 years we look forward to going into other pubs..we love this area but won't be going in there if we return to the area..

A great family Sunday roast. Delicious and generous roasts with perfect potatoes, amazing Yorkshire's, a lovely variety of veg, different gravies and sauces and a fantastic, homemade nut roast. The puds were just as good and I really appreciated the tasty plant-based options. Thanks Jayne and family!

Authentic and genuine old thatched pub with cosy atmosphere and excellent food and wine all at very reasonable prices. Privately owned and run by delightful husband and wife team with an eye on quality . We stayed in the charming 3 bedroom cottage next door which was lovely and remarkable value .

Love Z Hotels They have Sky which is great It’s tiny but got everything you need Slightly hard beds but it’s fine Be comfy with your partner as toilet and shower is not too private. But clean, brilliant and fun!

Attractive rustic cafe, which would be nice to visit on a warm day..It was absolutely freezing cold when we visited. The heaters in the cafe were completely ineffective. A cappuccino at £4 you think they could afford better heating. I felt concerned for the girls working there constantly having to point customers to the feeble heaters.

Nice staff, lovely open fire, not a nice selection on bitters

We booked dinner for 16 family members at the Talbot Inn which has recently reopened under new management headed by Polly who was simply amazing! She sent an excellent choice of courses to be prechosen which had something for everyone; coped with a couple of requests for non dairy and nuts and the resulting food was absolutely delicious. The wine was competitively priced and the whole evening in front of a blazing fire was one to remember. Thank you Polly for making this a very special evening.
