Sunday lunch at The Royal Oak in Marlborough

Steak, stilton and burgundy pie with chips.

12:03pm Thursday 4th March 2010

I love Sunday dinners. And after a long and lovely walk with our dog on Sunday afternoon we ventured into The Royal Oak at Wootton Rivers.

Pizza Express, Old Town

12:07pm Thursday 4th March 2010

WHEN you can’t book a table on a Wednesday evening in February you know a restaurant has found a winning formula.

Colleys, Lechlade

Let the show begin

11:57am Thursday 4th March 2010

Take your seat for a deliciously theatrical performance...MICHELLE TOMPKINS enjoys the spectacle that is Colleys

Pizzeria Amici, 22 Silver Street, Bradford on Avon, BA15 1JZ.

The Air Balloon, Birdlip

The Air Balloon

2:58pm Thursday 25th February 2010

MANY a weary traveller has passed by the Air Balloon, wishing they could spare the time to pull in, indulge in some tasty fare and curl up by the fire, but all too often they have somewhere else to be and drive on past.

The Bell, Broad Hinton

Sunday lunch - The Bell

2:55pm Thursday 25th February 2010

WE HEADED out into the countryside in search of Sunday lunch at a pub a friend had recommended . . . and ate at a completely different one.

Terry’s Takeaway, Swindon

Takeaway review - Terry's

2:50pm Thursday 25th February 2010

IT WASN’T high on my priority list when deciding to move but having what one of my colleagues once called “the number one takeaway in Swindon” virtually on the doorstep was a definite plus.

The Potting Shed, Malmesbury

The award-winning Potting Shed in Crudwell

8:31am Thursday 25th February 2010

Every time I drove past The Potting Shed pub in Crudwell promised myself I’d go in and see if it was as good as its reputation.

Herbies Pizza, Swindon

Herbies Pizza

3:08pm Thursday 18th February 2010

Pizzas are much of a muchness - I certainly couldn’t tell a Dominos from a Chicago Jo’s - but garlic bread is the make or break component for me. Dry and crispy just doesn’t cut it, thick and juicy does.

Curry Garden, Swindon

J Ahmed, Yousuf Meah and Walid Meah present a  colourful dish at the Curry Garden

3:00pm Thursday 18th February 2010

GENERALLY the rule with curries is that they come late at night after a few too many beverages and before stumbling home to fall asleep.

The Trotting Horse, Bushton, Clyffe Pypard

Staff at the Trotting Horse couldn’t be more friendly

8:33am Thursday 18th February 2010

We ended up on quite a round trip when faced with finding somewhere to eat with a toddler in tow: the first place we tried said they were fully booked (although there appeared to be free tables), and then the next two places we tried had big signs saying “No children in restaurant.”

The Bolingbroke Arms, Hook, Near Wootton Bassett

Steph's ham hock

9:31am Thursday 11th February 2010

HAVING dined at The Bolingbroke Arms on numerous occasions in the evening, it seemed only right to try out their fare on a Sunday lunchtime.

Ming Dynasty, Swindon

MING DYNASTY, 175-176 Manchester Road, Swindon

9:29am Thursday 11th February 2010

SAT in the pub after work on a Friday, getting a takeaway instead of rustling up a nutritious, home-cooked meal became increasingly more likely.

East West, Swindon

Rachel Mac, owner of East West, with with some of the restaurant dishes

9:27am Thursday 11th February 2010

IT’S always good to find a friendly restaurant selling well-prepared food at reasonable prices . . . and it’s even better if it’s within walking distance of home.

The Six Bells, Colerne

The Six Bells could be cosily atmospheric

8:34am Thursday 11th February 2010

At the first sign of a thaw in the big freeze we ventured a few miles along the road to the Six Bells in Colerne for a meal with friends.

Horse & Groom Inn, Charlton, near Malmesbury

The Horse & Groom has won several awards

1:58pm Thursday 4th February 2010

After the snow and ice of recent weeks we were delighted to see sunshine so we ventured out for Sunday lunch.
