So where's the best place in a five mile radius of swindon for a good Sunday lunch? Plated preferred to a carvery. :hmmm: :sherlock: :I'm a complete mofleakin Deak

Tawny?

The last place I went in or around Swindon was the Harrow in Wanborough, which was excellent.

Do it yourself...

And i dont mean that it a "Do it yourself you lazy" but more a "Home done roasts are the best"

Longs do a pretty good roast.

Hungry horse

Rudi's!

Please tell me you're being ironic or something. Think I'd rather eat actual horse.

In most of the eating and take away establishments in Swindon, how do you know that you are not?

I was taking the piss

I second this, The "Cold Harbour" used to do a cracker years ago, sadly not anymore.

We ended up at the weighbridge had a lovley roast. Would recommend, although expensive but worth it.

Food at the Weighbridge is fantastic. The service is laughable, but it's worth it.

I'd genuinely rather eat at the Hungry Horse than experience the shit service* at the Weighbridge again.

* perhaps its now sorted

I've eaten at a Hungry Horse and it was fine.

True story.

I quite like the Hungry Horse. Its cheap food, true, but like you say its fine. Had much worse more expensive steaks elsewhere too.

I've found hungry horses to be hit or miss. When they are quiet I have had some reasonable food there. When busy some horrors. Last time at the spotted cow was awful and I ain't been back since.
I generally pay a bit more down at the sun instead now.

I just made and ate an amazing steak pie.

Service at the Weighbridge is never great, but good food and beer means it gets away with it.

Sally Pussey's is a good carvery, and if you're in RWB then the Five Bells does a lovely Sunday roast.  Worth booking a table in advance there, though, as it's a small place with not many tables!

The George at Kempsford do a decent roast, been there a few times.
You would probably need to pre-book though as it's a pretty popular place for Sunday dinner.

Only been to the weighbridge once and the food was spot on, Like people have said the service could do with some refining. A couple of the waitresses were pretty nice.
