Restaurant in Chippenham

“Despite all the brilliant reviews, I had an impression that this would be a slightly cheesy place because of the name and all the ‘coq’ puns. I couldn’t have been more wrong! It’s a very cool, intimate atmosphere with vibey music and lovely staff. The food was incredible - both the veggie and chicken options - and generous portions. We didn’t have room for pudding so took home a little tiramisu, which is also homemade. Super impressed, and we will be regulars - but please please open a branch in Devizes :-)”

“Excellent food and service. Very friendly staff. Great value for money too. Good sized portions.”

“Eaten here a number of times and the food is excellent (both eat in and take away). Staff attentive and nothing bad to say about the place - EXCEPT when you order a King Prawn Vindaloo as a takeout and pay the price that they charge - I really do expect more than 4 (being generous here) King Prawns in there, stop padding it out with potatoes and add the prawns that should be in there. Please @The Raj - stop scrimping As a follow up 3 weeks later. Informed the restaurant about the lack of prawns. Owner very apologetic, matter rectified and five stars now given. Great service and great food”

“Really great service and excellent food. Although it’s a chain, this Prezzo manages to get out great food at good prices. We had the oven baked prawns, Tuscan beef and the hot one pizza. All faultless. Eve was particularly helpful - friendly and attentive but not too attentive! Thanks!”

“Extremely welcoming staff who I don't envy, as the customer service needs to be tip top considering the heightened price you pay over anywhere else. But in terms of the town centre, there isn't another place like it, but I tend to go just for the staff, especially the big chap, he is always so helpful.”

“Absolutely fantastic night! Food was amazing and high quality, but very reasonably priced. The atmosphere was lovely and our reservation was on time. Very easy to get to in the centre of town and near the station. But the highlight of the evening was the service - can't thank the staff enough for making us laugh so much!! Roger was brilliant, he knew when to step in with a recommendation or joke, and when to let us chat amongst ourselves and enjoy the food. Can't wait to go back!”

“We took a break from Extreme truck counting to check out M4 Escapes. Tom was a great host and took time to share some amazing insights into his great experiences.”

“Love it! So delicious and filling with options for carnivores and vegans. I've had the burger before and finally had the falafel burrito. It was full of flavour. If you are in a hurry you can also order online to pick up. Will deffo be there again! Very reasonably priced for a local business in 2023.”

“Lovely little picnic box of delights! More than enough for the two of us. Presented so beautifully too!”

“Popped in while traveling. Arrived not too long after opening and were seen immediately. All staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The food we had was out of this world and everything we saw others ordering looked just sublime. We had the swordfish which melted in the mouth and everything comes with veg and both roast and dauphinoise potatoes. If you have the chance to eat here, do so you will not regret it.”

“Lucknam Park is honestly one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve ever stayed at. From the moment you drive up that long tree-lined road, it just feels special. The setting is stunning, peaceful, and everything about it makes you instantly relax. Our room was gorgeous , cosy, elegant, and full of character. You can tell every detail has been thought through, from the bedding to the scent in the room. The spa is next level. The hydrotherapy pool, the outdoor hot pool under the trees, the thermal rooms , everything is spotless and beautifully designed. I had one of the best massages I’ve ever had in my life, and the staff there genuinely care about how you feel. The food… wow. Every meal was incredible. Breakfasts were perfect, and dinner was honestly Michelin-level , rich flavours, beautifully presented, and made with proper passion. The service was flawless , friendly but never over the top. It’s rare to find somewhere that gets everything right , the food, the spa, the atmosphere, the people – but Lucknam Park really does. It’s peaceful, romantic, and feels like proper old-school luxury without any stuffiness. We left already planning our next trip back.”

“Exquisite “fine dining” experience beyond what you might expect from a typical pub!!! Great selection of beer on draft! We ate under huge canopy outside & inside the pub was full of olde world charm & character!! Friendly staff!! Will return again when in the area!”

“LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. The town is like something out of a fairy tale. This little restaurant/pub was very accommodating and the food was delicious. They even had a great little dessert I could eat that was low sugar, dairy and gluten free. I think it was called "sticky toffee pudding."”

“We had our company Christmas meal here. The Xmas menu was great and the food amazing. Ashley and Freya were fantastic and looked after us all evening. Fantastic value for money.”

“Just turned up about 5pm on Friday not too busy. We’ve been in the area for nearly a week and I wish we had found this before. Best food I’ve had all week and great service”

“Had a lovely dinner with amazing food and a very friendly staff. Dinner begins at 6 p.m. and we were able to get a table immediately. Pie was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is very cozy. Would definitely recommend.”

“The food tasted fresh and well balanced, and the service was friendly without feeling rushed. A pleasant dining experience overall.”

“Went for the mixed grill so we could sample lots of different things. They did not disappoint, the portion was huge and everything was fresh. Tastes were amazing. Sauces were great. Can't wait to go back!”

“Just visiting and found this gem of a pub. Landlord so friendly and accommodating. Lovely village vibe and very welcoming. Can certainly recommend for a visit”

“Always a pleasure eating here. 5*. Once again the meal was excellent and the service impeccable. We had the roast beef plus all the trimmings of course. Pumpkin soup starter and lemon possett dessert. Thank you Tyler, Benz, Helen, Davis and Elanore. Happy looking chefs too. Thank you all.”

“Came here for a group of friend’s Christmas meal as previous meals have always been excellent. Lived up to expectations. Hannah was great (how she remembers the drinks orders I really don’t know), food was excellent and just the right portion sizes. Had a wonderful evening and will definitely be back”

“Brought my Dad here for a weekday lunch. The quality of the food and the service was outstanding. Most delicious homemade meat pies. The cheesecake dessert was divine.”

“We dined here for a 30th Birthday Celebration and left very full and satisfied! I give the food a 4/5 as I didn’t really enjoy the seaweed custard as it didn’t taste of anything, just like a plain cold custard. This was the only disappointing dish on the menu and I appreciate the skill of the dish, even though the flavour was lacking. The best dish for us was the dessert as it was unbelievable and ticked every box! We also loved the Cod, full of flavour!”

“Food was nice and staff were friendly, we were originally given the wrong dishes but the mistake was quickly rectified. Entrance and general interior is a little quirky but still nice.”

“We've been to La Passione a few times now. This is the first time to go whilst under new management and name change to Amici. They honoured our La Passione gift vouchers. The food was very tasty. The pizza was cooked better than the times we went when the place was called La Passione. The service was more attentive. Only thing negative is that it took a long time for food to come.”

“I’m not typically the biggest fan of Chinese take away but eating in at The Fortune was lovely and the plain chow-mien was so tasty! Sadly we were only passing through as if this was local to us I would definitely be coming regularly!”

“Our stay at the White Hart Ford was lovely! Quaint, charming, and quiet location for our three-night stay. The staff was welcoming and helpful. Nikki helped us arrange an early AM taxi to the airport when Uber was not available. The Sunday roast was amazing! Overall, wonderful time and happy to have gotten to experience this adorable place.”

“My wife and I and our spaniel Bella spent an amazing evening and overnight stay at the Clachan. All the staff were friendly, attentive and utterly charming. This place is an absolute dog friendly gem. We fined on the bar and had a fabulous supper. My wife plumped for the tandoori monkfish with a side dish of Bombay potato. She’s still waxing about it. I had the fish which was great, but wish I’d gone for the baby lemon sole! The ales were in tip too condition too. And my food and drink bill was very reasonable in the current climate!! Breakfast was fabulous too, and all served with a smile. Bella slept like a log too. It’s a 50 minute drive off the M74 if you are headed north or south and looking for an overnight stop, but it’s worth every mile. I would say booking is essential for room and food. We wish the owners - the landlady and chef - all the best for their upcoming nuptials. You put a smile on the face of two travel weary oldies. Thank you. Mike & Chris”

“We stopped in for a bite to eat while visiting Castle Combe, and have to say we had a fantastic time! The staff were really friendly, and so helpful. We were able to share a portion of fish and chips, which was delicious. The dessert was absolutely amazing too. Lovely atmosphere, would definitely return.”

“Had a lovely afternoon tea at Stanton Manor Hotel. The staff were very welcoming and attentive, and everything was well looked after from start to finish. The tea itself was excellent, and we enjoyed a peaceful walk around the gardens afterwards, which really added to the experience. A great spot for a relaxing afternoon.”
