Don’t cater for gluten free No gluten free breakfast available and very poor choice of evening meal without gluten. Gammon steak I had to have mashed potatoes as no fries or jack potato. Only steak with same of microwave curry without any accompaniments Also heating not on in room till 6-7 and as check in 3pm not good for hotel

We arrived early Saturday Two Baldy fellers welcomed by Jack who sorted our parking straight away. He made us feel very welcome and did a great job of keeping us in the bar all afternoon. Our stay was great clean comfortable rooms. Then breakfast in the morning was very good we were served by Sami and Sammy they couldn’t do enough very nice your lucky to have staff like you have. All in all a great stay made even better by the staff and very good value for money Thank You

Came for a Sunday roast with my two little ones , got taken to my table and had amazing service and good conversation from a waitress called Brooke , it was a bit crowded but none the less overall enjoyable time and good quality food for the price

.. from Will which is always nice. The 2016 refurb mentioned in their website is obviously welcome though - and I am sure that the company itself will agree - needs to be done both to the general fabric of the rooms and the upstairs entrance ways. The room was clean & warm; the shower strong; towels of good quality; the bed comfy though the overall feel of the room furniture does need an upgrade / refresh. Still, its central positioning is a welcome bonus.

Great Drink selection, Polite staff, Clean & tidy venue, However very disappointed with the amount of money charged for Food (ie Hunters chicken & Burgers) and real cheese was not used. We used to enjoy the food here, Unfortunately We won't eat here again anytime soon .

The young bar staff all seem to work well together as a team - Jack, Hannah, Susie, Harry, Will and Darren. Always welcoming and cheerful. The beer (usually Tribute) is always kept in good condition and, as a member of Camra, I benefit from a small discount for each pint. This is now my "local" for a lunchtime break and can highly recommend it!

Dropped in for a drink and to watch some Saturday football!! Great selection of ales and drinks and tv screens everywhere you turned. Great atmosphere and service. Would have to say it wasn't the cheapest place to drink in swindon but would definitely recommend.

The pub had a cozy atmosphere with friendly staff and a great selection of drinks. They do great offers like burger and free drink. We went for a Sunday roast and the food was delicious and the prices were reasonable. Overall, a great spot for a casual day out with friends
