The best restaurants serving Default food in Old Town and Lawn Swindon South West

Some of the best Italian food I have eaten in years, perfectly seasoned. Great selection of wines Cosy atmosphere Staff are super friends laughing and joking with the customers

Visited on a Saturday lunchtime, cafe was quiet. Menu is not the biggest, but prices were very good. I had the tuna mayo baguette and my daughter had the tuna mayo panini. Both came with salad. The baguette and panini's were very good, everso slightly let down by the salad. The salad was just some shredded iceberg lettuce with a slice of cucumber and a couple of small tomato pieces and was a little bland as there was no dressing. Will visit again when in the area.

Excellent evening with wonderful food while it snowed outside. Excellent service and the food was great tasting at a reasonable price

Amazing little place, come across it by accident. A couple of beers next door wanted some food. Bar / restaurant area is cozy and relaxed, music is chilled and service is outstanding. Food, if you want a great burger this is the place for you. Got love a smash burger!! Highly recommend. Thanks to all the amazing staff, you were amazing.

Just had a programme of fresh juices delivered, and the juices are wonderful. Thank you so much and I will be ordering again for sure:-)

Horrible burgers. Me and my wife had dinner last night there. Burgers were burned, chips were undercooked. Not a very good experience. I understand last order was at 20:00 we ordered before 20:00 and if you don't take food orders anymore just say it, no need to make the food in a rush, burned and undercooked, and also the vegetables were tasteless. Don't think we gonna come soon here, we were on holiday coming from Nottingham looking for a nice place to have dinner, but it was disappointing.

An exceptional evening with friends that had flown in from Florida that day, the food was cooked to perfection, I had the Miso Cod which was fantastic, the service was impeccable, such a relaxing and enjoyable evening.

Second visit to the Royal Oak… first time for food (Sunday Roast) Lovely warm greeting by the owner and bar staff, great service and good food…an absolute gem of place and a throwback to times when people cared! Thank you so much.

Had a lovely lunch today with friends, staff very friendly, a little busy when we arrived but no delay on food. Excellent value for money, they still except the blue light card which makes it even better price wise.

Just had a delivery tonight and had an item missing. First time had something missing. Called them and they rectified it straight away even though it was just an additional pitta bread. The kebab was HUGE, hot and tasty. Can’t fault it or the service from the guy in the phone when I called about the missing item.

Have visited several times during August - always really good smooth coffee. Great service and always greeted with a smile.

Ordered two cappuccinos with oat milk, took 15mins to then have to be remade as made with normal milk. Coffee was then served luke warm but after then reading previous reviews, didn't want to mention it as I didn't want to get verbally abused by the manager. First and last visit!

Not great to be honest and expected so much more, as many have recommended. Granted, service is good and we were accommodated on a Friday evening without a booking. The Cobra was cold and slid down a treat as did the wife’s gin. That’s where the fun stops! I know my way around curry, but as it was our first visit for years, I went safe with a Bhuna. I think Mrs Layboy had the Biriani. Mine was tasteless almost as if cooked in a generic curry sauce, while the wife wasn’t impressed either. I walked away gutted I didn’t stick to my guns and go where I wanted and the wife, well she had a bad belly for three days after. With so many options in Old Town we really have no need to give this place a further chance.

Just come home from having a coffee at this venue for the first time. Nice coffee, lovely views and as it has been a nice day we sat outside. We wouldn't want to sit inside as the cafe itself is not very welcoming and quite soulless which is a shame as a lot could be done to make it a more pleasant place to sit. We doubt that we'll be going back.

Fantastic food and super quick service, even on a Saturday night!
