The best restaurants serving British food in Wiltshire South West

This pub is open. This pub sells excellent beer, it is friendly, and they allow you to bring your own food. Refurbished in the last couple of years, it's probably the best pub in Marlborough.

Awful place, service was terrible, and the food was cold, out of tin, tables uncleared and had been there for a long time. Other visitors left after not eating their food. Drinks given in Dirty glasses. Service very very slow and they all looked stoned and very unhelpful

My husband and I went for a pub meal, I had fish and chips, my husband had a burger and chips. He enjoyed his meal, but mine wasn’t up to the usual standard. My piece of fish was very small ( the pub knocked 10% off the bill) and the chips were very dry. Maybe been cooked earlier and reheated. I did mention my disappointment to the waitress who passed comments on to the kitchen. The staff were friendly though.

Randomly drove round some villages to look for somewhere to eat, and boy did we get lucky with The Angel Inn! Was easy to park. Welcoming staff, lovely food, warm and comfortable. Staff did not rush us through the meal. Food was well presented, prepared to a high standard and of a large portion size.

Having thought overnight about whether and what to write, I have concluded that I must say what needs to be said, though I’m sorry to be writing this. I’ve eaten here on several occasions as it’s handy for Westonbirt where regular 10k runs take place. I’ve always been pleased in the past. Not so last night. I had booked online in advance. I chose a bottle of NZ Sauvignon Blanc which at £29.50 was reasonably priced for its quality. I recommended and chose the white onion & garlic soup which I’ve had before when it was delicious. Last night the soup arrived and it looked and tasted quite different. It was thin and an odd colour and tasted only of stock and potato starch - not a suggestion of either onion or garlic. For some reason it was garnished with pea shoots. I did not finish it. The accompanying bread was good but the butter was too hard to spread. As to main courses, I’m told the fish pie was good. I chose the steak and venison pie with veg. The veg, particularly the flavoursome carrots, were good, though even a large portion of new potatoes failed to fill the enormous plate. The pie filling was good but the pastry was poor: undercooked on the filling side and tough and resembling a biscuit on top. I did not complain at the time as I did not want to spoil an otherwise convivial evening with visiting friends. Two servings of crumble were ordered and I’m told were delicious as usual. Having said all this, I want to say that the service was exceptional as always: welcoming, friendly, prompt and helpful, despite the presence of a slightly rowdy group in the other bar, following a six nations match. This on its own will mean that I give The Rattlebone another chance.

Excellent food & Excellent service - highly recommend

Lovely atmosphere and food. Very welcoming and so helpful and accommodating. Even did us a breakfast at special rauer the next day! Well worth a visit!

My meal was discusting don't waste your money having food in this pub left me feeling unwell burnt garlic bread greasy pasta ,etc

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

Visited today for Sunday lunch. Carpark wasn't busy at 12.45 inside was also quiet. We had booked and several tables did say reserved. Order 2 roasts, a Korean burger and a kids burger. Food was all ok. Roasts were very good. Burger plates weren't dressed which was a bit odd, no garnish. We order two cherry waffle sundaes, strawberry kids ice-cream sundae and a crumble. Puds were good however the cherry waffle Sunday came in a half filled sundae dish. Made it look like they had forgotten the rest of the dessert. A smaller dish would have been better. Only downside of the visit was the waitress pushing upon us her request for a tip. She mentioned we could tip on a separate device which she was waving at us, three times during our payment process. For that very reason we didn't tip at all. We would have done had it not been almost made to feel it wasn't optional.

Typical National Trust Cafe with seating inside and out, the usual fare and nearby toilets and car park. Suggest NT ensure all staff behind the counter are dressed properly.

Took my mum and sister for lunch. Not enough staff to give good service.Lady at the till clearly not interested. I do not like leaving a negative review. but this was so awful.The 3 cream cakes we could not eat, past their best, we did say something nothing was done. The lunch was really bad, the jacket potato reheated watery prawns. Curry just a plate of sauce covered up with a poppadom, Quiche was the best choice made. This was a really bad lunch. Travelling up from Abbotsbury to have a special lunch, a total waste of money. Couldn't care less attitude.

Fantastic Christmas lunch booked at short notice due to being let down elsewhere! Probably quite fortuitous switch as meal, ambience and waiter Cosmo were all absolutely excellent. There was a small issue with the bill as didn't initially charge set Christmas menu price which is what we'd booked, apparently doesn't apply on a Saturday!?! Soon rectified when we explained that noone had told us this and it didn't appear on the pricing on the menu previously or on placing our booking/pre order. Thank you Bishopstrow (and Cosmo) for an excellent, relaxed, festive lunch. Ps the Hawkes Bay Rose by the glass was delicious 🍾💗

We were lucky enough to have pre lunch drinks on the terrace in brilliant sunshine. On a Sunday there is a choice of four dishes for each course. That is plenty of choice and mqkes life easier. The food was very good and a serviceable wine list. The staff are very helpful and efficient.

ORDER (to takeaway); Shortbread slices, Lrg Cinammon Latte Katsu chicken slice SERVER; Sabia Member of staff seemed new to the location. Even though some may think that being slow in processing and checking the order, aswell as how to correctly put it into till. Could be a bad thing, I would rather have someone take the time to make sure everything was right the first time. Even though there was a queue, the server kept their attention on us. Checking if we wanted the options that came with the latte. A second member staff came out during our visit, so please dont think that the server was left all alone.
