The best restaurants serving British food in Sherston Wiltshire South West

We have never been to this restaurant before but after seeing some positive reviews we thought we would try it for lunch. The restaurant had plenty of parking , which is always a plus , and the food on the menu looked great . As I need a gluten and diary free meal this can sometimes be tricky , but I ordered the burger and fries , and it was hands down one of the best burgers I have had. Really tasty and great portion size . The service was also excellent, and we had a lovely time. I would highly recommend this place , and will be going back for sure .

We’ve been here twice now for a roast in the last couple of months and both times have been outstanding. We go out for a roast regularly and this is the best one anywhere close to Swindon. We’ll be back again and again I’m sure.

The best coffee in the area and the best quality and value breakfast anywhere we've visited. The Angel is an invaluable community hub.

What a great find - lovely older style pub in beautiful countryside location. Fantastic Sunday roast, good beers and wine all served with a smile. We stayed overnight in one of the cabins - the grounds are lovely and the cabin was comfortable and spacious for us and our dog. Great breakfast in the morning. Will definitely return - thanks very much!

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.

Sorry to say it had gone down hill I am local but now avoid eating there as the lady cook always looks miserable and don’t dare to ask for a slight change on anything because the answer is always no, I’ve been in the cafe business and we did all we could to make people happy. I always had an egg and bacon sandwich at the cafe and when I asked the girl (very pleasant) she sheepishly said no only baps. It could be a great cafe if only they tried harder.
