Bit last minute, but got tomorrow off work to spend a bit of time with the other half, we're thinking of going somewhere nice for lunch in the early afternoon, any recommendations? Cheers!

In or around our beloved town of Swindon I did think so Leggett but thought you might not be averse to travelling  |

Best pub grub i've had around Swindon by miles is at the Falcon at Poulton, been there several times and always had fantastic food, they do a lunch menu with 3 courses for £16. http://www.falconinnpoulton.co.uk/ |

Don't go to the Kembrey Inn, gone downhill in a big way!

Swindon has never really been a lunch sort of place beyond the chip shop....or the Woolies cafe/ BHS equivalent and they're gone.
Los Gatos in its old guise more than able to cater for the small numbers whose lifestyle was a bit continental.
The middle classes, wouldn't be seen dead in Swindon and the burgeoning underclass, dwindling working class don't do lunch.
So, your best bet is out of town, and there's plenty of gastro pubs if it's your thing.
An in town punt, might be the Los Gatos replacement, Helen Brownings. Not been but there's usually a few in, big on meat.

Mentioned above, Moshan Island Grill have a very good lunchtime deal, though you may need to check that they open at lunch time on Thursdays.
Slightly further afield but the Red Lion in Cricklade is hard to beat, both for their food and their beer.
