What Diners Are Saying
Amazing food with fresh ingredients
“Had the most amazing meal here last night. The oysters were delicious and we chose the chicken and trout for main—both incredibly tasty using fresh ingredients and such good value. We will be back. I would say the best restaurant in Swindon.”
