Sorry to read the rather mixed reviews of the good old B and C. This was my first "proper" local back in the 1960s (I wasn't quite 18!!). Sticky and Olive Smith were the licensees and ran a very tight ship. Ushers "Boys bitter" was 1/2 a pint and I don't think they stocked any of that new fangled lager!! Must call in again next time I'm passing Latitude - 9 Apr 2012 00:37 |
We recently ate here on Valentines day at lunchtime. The food, staff and quality throughout was just what I had hoped for. John has the right staff in the right positions. The ambiance was relaxing and friendly. The selection of beers and wines really set the taste buds tingling. If you need a relaxing drink with new friends, you would find this establishment hard to beat. ENJOY. Welldone John and the team. See you very soon. Broadwell1 - 3 Mar 2012 20:30 |
Two of our party of four had previously been to this establishment in recent months, so it felt like a safe bet to celebrate a special occasion here. I can only assume that the chef must have had the night off. Prawns to start - not worth it, mayo was disgusting, prawns bland & garnish -a cherry tomato!! all three of us commented to each other how awful this was. Three of us then ordered steak two of which were fillet, med/rare - result Very Poor- over cooked, & completely tasteless. The other guest had plaice - acceptable. The red wine was cold. The waitress was not very happy with our reply, when she asked if we were enjoing our meal, & went straight to the bar to tell the barman- which everyone then herd. Bad move.Very Unprofessional. Having waited 20 mintues for the table to be cleared, with half eaten meals in front of us I decided to clear our plates. I do hope that the food & service change otherwise the place will once again be closed. On a positive note the barman was very good & so were the bread rolls!! Tramar - 23 Sep 2010 09:35 |
We ate at the Bell and Crown quite recently and had an excellent meal with very good service. We thought that although not cheap, it offered good value and we will certainly return again soon, it being fairly close to where we live. fisherking69 - 14 Jun 2009 21:50 |
Had a super lunch in The Bell and Crown on 7/6/2009. We have followed John Harrington around Wiltshire in his various pubs and have never been disappointed. He is a chef with flair coupled with the eccentricity of a true restaurateur. Spotlessly clean and welcoming establishment with friendly and attentive staff. Great food, good wine and fantastic value. We only wish that he was as close to our village as he used to be But it is always worth the drive to Zeals! rangerover - 12 Jun 2009 18:16 |
