The Jolly Tar Hannington - Swindon

This charming rural pub offers delicious food and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended for its excellent freshly made dishes.

I must give credit where credit is due - the Sunday roast at this restaurant was fabulous. The portions were generous, the meat was beautiful, and the prices were reasonable. We left as very satisfied customers and will definitely be returning and recommending this place to others.

Enjoyed a really delicious lunch at The Jolly Tarr in Hannington. They have a good lunch menu ranging from sandwiches to proper mains. We ordered the cajun fish finger and the chicken bacon ciabatta’s which both came with fries and we got a steaming hot pot of tea. I would have taken a picture but it was all so nice I didn’t get a chance to! The fish finger was a lovely piece of fresh fish with a crunchy cajun coating and a really nice slaw salad and the other sandwich had a chicken breast in with the bacon, tomato and lettuce and they were both in lovely ciabatta toasted buns. Yummy! The staff are friendly, there is lots of parking and they have a nice outside seating area for the summer. Definitely worth stopping here for a spot of lunch and if it looks closed from the outside do check as the lighting isn’t so bright and when we first passed it looked closed. So glad we double checked!

Meet some friends for pre-Christmas supper. Food was excellent and good value, would recommend the mulled wine. See you again soon.

We visited this lovely looking pub for a works Christmas do in early December. Generally the food was good, however, my steak that was supposed to be medium cooked was well done. Much worse, two of the steaks served were virtually inedible as they were so overcooked. About three-quarters of each was left, but this failed to elicit comment from the waiting staff. This utter lack of attention to detail, both in cooking and in service, means I shall not be returning.
