The best restaurants serving British food in Sherston Wiltshire South West

Lovely Sunday lunch . Starters were very tasty, the beef and pork on main course were cooked perfectly and the sticky toffee pudding was spot on Definitely recommend. Excellent staff .

Friendly staff and a FANTASTIC roast. Just off the m4 so great to pop into! Call ahead to reserve a table (and your preferred meat!)

Unexpectedly good ... The Angel looks nice enough on their website. Most places do. But the location, decor, welcome and food in reality were all way above expectation. The courtyard garden doesn't seem to have many photos online - it's the star of the show tucked away from the spacious dining area. It's dog friendly, which was a bonus. Service is fast, but eggs royale, eggs benedict and pulled pork bap better than you'd expect in a very decent London hotel. Spotlessly clean but with Cotswold chic vibes. I'm tired of so many places in the area now charging £22 for a £15 brunch plate. Loads of options here for under a tenner, a bit more if you dive into the delicious Basque cheesecake like I did. It completes every breakfast, really. Top Marks to the Angel, which isn't really a cafe, but I'm not sure what word describes it better.

Finally a real pub! An-all-year-round winner! Not your typical Cotswolds herringbone decor with silly pompous menus that never deliver. This place is unassuming and has hints of quirky at first sight but walk in the doors and It has everything a real pub should have. Regulars, diners, attentive staff, great bar and amazingly well cooked, made-from-scratch food. The vibe is buzzing and lively but doesn’t interfere. The gardens out the back are huge - with chalets and camping as well as a very cool huge barn for parties. I’ve now been there a few times to eat and drink. I must have tasted most of the regular dishes by now and it’s all great. Every part of the Sunday roasts are delicious . I highly recommend this place!

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.

Have been using the cafe for quite a while, usually good standard. Today however, was poor, prices have increased, but standards have dropped, poorly cooked food. Over cooked chips, black bacon from dirty griddle, cold scrambled egg and mushrooms. Shame as staff are friendly.
