👍👍 Great customer service, quick service and lovely food. It has a lovely garden which has a children's climbing frame, two plastic globes in which you can stand and smoke in if it's raining and also a large covered decking area. The Wkye Down is family and dog friendly and has a good atmosphere. There... People often mention service, good, carvery, staff, lovely, great, friendly, Sunday, free, nice,

    Great customer service, quick service and lovely food. It has a lovely garden which has a children's climbing frame, two plastic globes in which you can stand and smoke in if it's raining and also a large covered decking area. The Wkye Down is family and dog friendly and has a good atmosphere. There is a games room consisting of two pool tables. Myself and family visited Sunday afternoon for a carvery and was pleasantly surprised with all the trimmings they had to offer. Will certainly be returning.

    Tasty pub food menu. Loveky surroundings. Not the best choice of Ale but well worth a visit.

    Nice pub food at a reasonable price and good portion sizes. The service was very good all the staff were polite and helpful. Seemed to have strange serving times with the bar closing at 10 pm on a Saturday.

    Booked this specifically for our Anniversary lunch as the post on Facebook clearly stated we cater for Gluten and Dairy free. We opted for the carvery, meat and vegetables were lovely but there was no option for gluten free Yorkshire Pudding or stuffing, just gluten free gravy. We were asked if we would like to order dessert, when the board was presented the ONLY option available for gluten free was strawberry ice cream which my husband does not eat. On checking with the kitchen it was confirmed that there were NO gluten free options. So disappointed, don't advertise things if you cannot provide them. I did post to Facebook with these comments but they were promptly removed, seems they only want positive feedback. On this visit I would not recommend.

    First time we arrived on a Sunday and really enjoyed the food! The pub is clean with a lot of open space and dog friendly. Brownie and ice cream itself tasted delicious ! Although there were few things we did not like it as much, the food overall was well presented as well as the table was laid out nicely. We will come again soon.

    Generic cuisine. Nice enough place as a local pub but not so much as a restaurant. Staff are friendly and willing. Probably the Sunday lunch would be a good bet.

    Lovely lunch , but staff need to be more aware of coeliac condition and allergens, and how they can make people seriously ill. Asked about Yorkshire puddings to be told there fine made with flour, really, yes but what type i asked - plain.Think ill give them a miss 😡😡

    Held my 60th birthday bash at the Wyke Down 5th August. So glad that I did. Ben and the team provided excellent service. Food was perfect, bar service was perfect and we had easy access to getting everything ready to have a great evening. Thank you Wyke Down, I would highly recommend you to anyone wanting to hold an event.

    Genuinely friendly pub. Good whitebate starter, friends highly recommend the food. Monthly quiz I've yet to try but will update then.

    We’ve had ordered a lamb and steak and when these dishes arrived - lamb wasn’t cooked as I’ve requested and the steak was purchased from such a cheap cut - all chewy so we left it uneaten. No steak knives were served to we had to hack through these meats with some blunt dining knifes. What a disappointment for the high prices we’ve paid! Also the pub was visually ran down but the actual staff working here were extremely lovely. Not sure about the loud pop dance music playing when you’re trying to have food though.

    Had a great afternoon, great atmosphere, great service and hands down the best carvery in Andover! Definitely be coming here from now on.

    Had a family meal here a couple of weeks ago and it was lovely, I had a Sunday carvery and it was beautiful and didn't leave until closing time which was about 17.30.

    Lovely place to bring the family or friends, big beer garden, loads of parking and food is amazing, fair prices for location

    A lovely country pub. A warm welcome on arrival and really good service throughout our visit. The Sunday carvery was delicious and at a reasonable cost. Will definitely visit again.

    Hi food at wykedown is really quite good potions are quite large we left there feeling very full nice clean restaurant and good service

  • 2/5 alex g. 2 years ago on Google
    Newly opened (A month ago). Looks nice and clean. That's where the compliments end. Terrible service as they forgot to put one of our orders through, no table check, no-one asked us if we would like another drink (we had to chase the staff down), my peri-peri chicken should have been with garlic mayo (which was a dot in the middle). Toilets were dark and I almost bumped into someone. How much do bulbs cost people? Once the 1 starter had arrived (after 20 mins) it then took 45 mins for the mains to turn up. Menu is very limited unless you want a burger. And the prices are insane for the quality of service. All in all not a good experience. I will not return for a meal here.

    Really nice food and quick bar service. Good prices too! Decent sized carpark.

  • 5/5 Bo b. 1 year ago on Google
    Went here for our work Christmas party. Despite it being busy with lots of people eating, the food was excellent. It was served hot and well cooked, looked good and tasted great. There were 3 or 4 options for mains which we'd chosen beforehand and all of the options arrived at the same time so people weren't waiting for others. The disco afterwards was good. We would definitely go here again for a Christmas party.

    Friendly staff. Great food. Spacious inside and outside. Great venue for big parties or family get together

    Excellent food. Had the carvery and fish and chips. All great.

  • 4/5 Geoff A. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent Carvery, dessert even better, Ginger sponge and custard, lemon cheese cake meringue with blackberry clotted cream ice-cream

  • 1/5 ian T. 1 year ago on Google
    My wife booked a meal at this venue, as it advert said it was gluten free. We ordered the roast dinner no Yorkshire pudding or stuffing balls for me. They did have gluten free gravy, as for pudding all they could offer was strawberry ice cream. Very disappointed meal nothing special when it looked so good in their advert. Why advertise gluten free when they can not deliver.

    From the moment you walk in, you feel very welcome. Very pleasant staff, and also very helpful! Food is amazing, and just what you would expect from. A lovely country pub.

    Went for the carvery and was far from disappointed, friendly environment and fantastic food at a very reasonable price, definitely returning

    I do like eating here. Friendly staff, spacious with a relaxing atmosphere. Good pub food which is perfect for some fussy eaters in my family.

    I cannot thank the team at Wyke Down enough, for 'saving the day' on Saturday. We were let down by a pub near Pewsey where we had booked tables for our very large family. At very short notice (less than an hour) Wyke Down were able to accommodate 24 of us (15 adults, 5 children and 3 toddlers in highchairs) - we had choice of full menu, which included options for our vegetarians - all meals arrived at same time; all hot; all generous portions; and delicious. Thank you, thank you, thank you

👍👍 Great meal but greater staff. Had a sharing meal at a medium and you could taste the flavour to the very end of every bite. The food was pretty good but the waiting staff were far better. All of the staff were very nice and friendly, even struck a few conversations. The only issue was exiting the...
