The best restaurants serving British food in Swindon South West

I had to spend a morning in Swindon and wanted a nice breakfast. This place delivered in spades. Very nice staff, and excellent breakfast. I had Colombian Eggs which I had never heard of before, it's basically scrambled eggs with chopped chorizo, and was delicious and quite filling. My wife opted for a Half-English breakfast (half the size of a Full English), and a slice of fried bread. All of the ingredients were to quality and she pronounced the fried bread to be perfectly cooked. Will definitely visit if I am ever in Swindon for a morning again.

Amazing find! If you are craving a jacket Potato this is the place! Amazing food, crispy skins, unique fillings, prepared with care and served with love. Thanks Michelle, Jamie and Maureen 🙏

Even for a non football fan the package is good with a stadium tour, three course meal, half time refreshments and a fantastic group of staff to look after you.

What a load of ignorant........... Would give zero stars if I could, and that would be generous. Popped in today about 6pm. Haven't been for a little while and I guess it has changed ownership. What happened to the lovely man and his family that used to be there? I was stood right at the front and the only one that needed to be served out of 3 of us. I was completely ignored, not even one glance my way, no friendly smile, no acknowledgement of any kind, NOTHING whatsoever!!! There were 3 men behind the counter not exactly rushed off their feet. I waited a while and walked out never to return!!! Don't bother with this place unless you like being ignored!

This pub looks and feels great since the refurb, had a lovely time, great food and service from Kelila and Levanna, 100% recommend 😀

Great Ice cream Fantastic to replace my daughters ice cream she dropped How ever the young lady behind the counter today august 17th who seemed to be having issues with the card machine was obnoxious and judgemental My son is a sends child with autism and various other diagnoses he was excited and looking what flavour to have when he touched the ice cream display counter which any child is going to press there nose and hands against in pure joy and excitement Only to be told off by the young lady with a demeaning attitude and tone in her voice “ please don’t touch the freezer it does say it on there” in such an obtuse condescending manner which was absolutely disgusting how dare she talk to a child like that or any other child in that matter that is one sure way not to get returning customers The lady that served the ice cream was amazing I understand your busy it’s summer and Ice cream is the first thing on a child’s mind but you work in hospitality and catering in all my years in this industry which is over 30 years of spoke to a customer they the young lady did I would have been fired Again thank you for replacing the dropped ice cream and the ice creams were delicious in there own right

What a fantastic place, the food is excellent, it is very clean, the staff are very polite and welcoming, my second visit and it did not disappoint. Would highly recommend.

We often go with friends, to this very friendly cafe , Alll our meals have been delicious and hot. Waiter and waitresses try so hard to get it right a delightful experience, we will be back.

The coffee here is perfect - I have an extra hot oat milk flat white and it was spot on. So good I had another straight after! I also had the avocado on toast which was excellent value. Delicious, crunchy, thinly sliced local sourdough with well seasoned avo served separately so I could serve it up how I like, a really nice touch. Change nothing Darkroom and I’ll be back again and again

My friend and I had lunch here on the day of our visit to Steam. We had the all day breakfast which was really good with tasty bacon and a filling plateful. As you don't have to visit the museum to use the cafe I would recommend eating here even if one is visiting the Outlet Village as the prices are far more reasonable. Very clean and well laid out with lots of room between the tables and the staff are all pleasant.

i only went here to play pool the customer service was very poor as the lady would not let me play for me than 10 minutes the toilets was also very bad, overall i would not return here

Fantastic restaurant, we were greeted with a smile , the waitress for very pleasant and helpful, the gluten free options were brilliant, I had cod and chips , it was very tasty. The children loved the indoor play area and the games room with a PlayStation 5, x box , gaming computer and tv for films for was huge suprise. We would definitely re visit this restaurant in the future.

I went in asking for chicken breast with the skin on. He didn’t have it in the display but went above and beyond to cut some fresh for me. The gentleman gave me some advise on keeping it on the crown and wow was he right. A beautiful cut of meat at a brilliant price. Super friendly and couldn’t help enough. I will definitely be buying my meat from there again. Highly recommend to everyone.

Friendly staff and good coffee, only sorry we didn't get the chance to try the food on this occasion - maybe next time

We visited here yesterday We’ve been here a few times now and the service has always been a bit hit and miss but the breakfast definitely makes up for it! I think after this visit it will probably be our last time, not because it’s bad but because the service is all over the place. ** We had no cutlery when our breakfast arrived **apparently no table salt anywhere in the cafe ** 1 round of toast when it clearly said 2 on the board ( I did query it and the young girl said it should only be one but she kindly brought another) Unfortunately she forgot to bring another butter with it. I just think the whole place lacks in customer service, the staff aren’t rude they just don’t go out of there way to check that you have everything you need and you feel like you have to keep asking.
