British Restaurants in Chippenham

“Great location being close to the train station, super friendly and accommodating staff, very clean. Food is lovely. Would definitely go back!!”

“We’d not been to The Garden for a while. I looked in at the window to check the menu and certainly liked what I saw. Also, I liked the notice saying that dogs are welcome up until 6.00 p.m. I myself will not eat in a room where there are domestic animals present because I have the view – more prevalent than some might admit – that dogs are essentially ‘unclean’. (If you don’t believe me, just watch how they socialise with one another in the park). So, we pitched up just before 6 and not a dog in sight. Had there been I would have taken my custom elsewhere. We got a friendly welcome and were given a super table in the window bay. Service was prompt and courteous. My wife enjoyed her Prosecco and I my glass of Rioja. The food was good and well-presented although the portions perhaps too generous for elderly people like us. Might the management think about this, offering smaller portions if asked? But perhaps you already do. Anyway – most people these days think that throwing good food away because it is left on the plate is just not acceptable. So why four stars and not five? For this reason alone: the volume of the ‘music’ being played over the speaker system was too much for us. ‘Speigel im spiegel’ at half the volume would have been enough but in fact I prefer no music at all. I go out in the evening for good food, good wine and good conversation that does not necessitate shouting, in pleasant surroundings. Really, if you stated as well as dogs being welcome until 6 o’clock that you would be music-less until 7 o'clock or 8, I cannot think it would have any negative impact on your number of customers, and perhaps even a positive one given that deaf old codgers like us tend to like an early night.

I will always consider altering or deleting content should it be pointed out that I have inadvertently made a mistake in my reporting. I would like to think that subscribers to Tripadvisor find my reviews helpful, unbiased, and consistently reliable.”

“Lovely environment. Great food and attentive staff. Order on the app and it asks for tip before hand. But was well worth the visit. Will return another day for breakfast. Edit: came back for breakfast, was perfectParking: Free after 6”
