    This is a lovely venue in the beautiful countryside of Wiltshire. We were warmly greeted by the staff, as we came in, and the great service carried on throughout the evening. We were seated at a slightly odd table in a corner, perfectly adequate, I just felt a bit in the way. Menus were handed out, although I'd looked online and set my heart on delights already, and we had a couple of drinks to get started. We went for a sharing arrangement for our starters and had the crispy pickled root veg, the bread and pistachio butter alongside the trout rillettes. The bread and butter were lovely, different combination that worked well. The pickled veg were nice, but some you needed your good teeth for whilst others were very soft. I'm told, as I'm not a fishy person, that the trout rillette was divine. Main course arrived and as usual I went for haddock and chips. I know this contradicts my previous paragraph but everything is better deep fried in batter! The Mr went for the spicy bean burger, which looked fabulous. A couple of niggles would be that the burger was very squishy for a bean burger, it kept trying to escape from the bun. I usually order fish and chips as it's a great way to compare how different chefs manage with batter. The chips were thick, chunky and crispy as anything. The tartare sauce was really good, as were the crushed peas - sounds daft but they tasted of peas, not making them like other places where they add god knows what to them! My niggle was that halfway through the fish - which was beautifully cooked and moist - the batter went a bit stodgy and lost its crispiness. It's a small thing, not really worth mentioning on the night as everything else was top notch. Dessert arrived, as it always seems too... I had the pumpkin spiced set custard which was a delight to look at, as well as eat. The custard was smooth and not over spiced, and it came with filo shards and the lightest meringue I've ever eaten. The Mr had the cheescake which was a concoction of blond chocolate and mascarpone. It also comes with Horlicks ice cream - which I tried and can safely say it was yummy. It wasn't a cheap night out, but overall it was worth the money. Next time I'd like to sit by the fire in the little dining room, not in a hallway. Please take yourself there and enjoy.

    The first time back for us since The Lamb’s reopening. It was our Christmas meal with a party of six. Such a beautiful Grade II listed building. The decor is very stylish and well done. The restaurant is a good size with different sections. We were in a smaller room. Even though there was a Christmas party of 40 we didn’t really hear them. The staff were very attentive and professional. The food was beautifully presented and high standard. I had the Gravlax to start which is treacle cured salmon. My husband had the Roast turkey and I had Ravioli with wild mushrooms for our mains. Then Christmas pudding for dessert. It was all superb. The ravioli was the best I have had. We were all very happy with our food choices. We all had a great time. I would go so far as to say, of all our diners club Christmas meals over quite a few years. This was the best. It was a reasonable price for food of such good quality. Definitely worth a visit. We are so very happy the Lamb on the Strand is back. Note: It has a decent sized carpark. Also a newly added path to the restaurant. Seating outside in the summer with lovely views.

    Our first visit for several years and we were impressed. Friendly service and good food. I opted for fish and chips, which was lovely, and everyone else enjoyed their lamb and mint burgers. I did find the chairs in the dining room a little uncomfortable, and it was a tight fit around the table, but otherwise, a very positive experience and we will return.

    This was the first time we had visited and it won't be the last. The food was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The service was discreet and our welcome very warm and the place was decorated with antique artefacts and furniture. A really good place to go for a relaxing meal. There is also a lovely beer garden and dogs are welcome

    Loved the atmosphere, the service and the food!! It was fairly quiet on a Saturday, and the gastropub definitely deserves more customers to enjoy their food. My lamb and mint burger was delicious, definitely coming back!

    Fantastic family lunch out today. The lamb was very good and vegetarian baked celeriac was a fabulous non meat roast option. Service was first class 😋

    Fantastic Sunday lunch, with all the trimmings. Great service, beautiful food (hot when served! which isn't always the case with Sunday lunch). Save room for pudding! Very good vegan options as well. Our second time, and will be back again! Thank you.

    Came for a Sunday roast and was probably the best one I’ve ever eaten. The beef was perfectly cooked and the range of vegetables that accompanied the meal were beautiful. Huge Yorkshire puddings, crispy and fluffy roast potatoes and divine gravy - you won’t want to leave a drop. The children’s portions are also very generous, but the absolutely unmissable item is the cauliflower cheese. You won’t regret ordering that too. The puddings were delicious too, all washed down with a red wine recommendation (for the adults anyway!). We managed pictures of those but the roast was so good we got stuck in straight away. Overall, a lovely experience with knowledgable, friendly staff in a relaxing environment with a great ambiance. We will definitely be returning!

    It was lovely, and I’m fussy, best Sunday roast ever, by a country mile. The only observation I would make is it was a cold day and we had a drink in the bar as we were early, which could be a lovely welcoming area but the fire wasn’t lit. Fix that and it would have been 5 stars across the board. Definitely going back.

    Our second visit since reopening because the food is just so good! This time a vegetarian option which was amazing even to a meat-eater, followed by another divine dessert. Service is very friendly & attentive & the light, fresh dining area great on a summer's evening.
