The bar staff are friendly with regulars chatting to the staff. The pub was packed on a Saturday afternoon, but we managed to find a nice spot reading the weekend papers. There is a courtyard here - perfect for the warmer weather and a restaurant towards the back of the pub. This pub has a very relaxed feel about, and as a result is homely. Added bonus is they have a open log fire too - a real winner in my book!

The patriarch was running the bar when I was about, and the conversation was pleasant and warm and the beer was cold.

The food: simple yet amazing, the rooms: clean and good enough, the bar and restaurant: a winner.

My team and I were in Swindon on business from the US last October. My boss said we should go the…read moreThree Crowns for dinner one night, because she was there on a previous visit. I'm a vegan, so my expectations for finding something tasty at a UK Pub didn't seem very high. Even in the US, I find pub menus about the most vegan-unfriendly. I didn't see anything on the menu to eat, so I e-mailed them in advance to see if there were some options available. Not only did they get back to me right away, but they offered me several off-menu options for starters, dinner, and even dessert: Starters: Soup of the day (we can do a veg soup if you book) Orange & Walnut Salad with Watercress & Balsamic Dressing Sun-Blushed Tomato, Olive & Artichoke Salad Dinner: Mushroom Stuffed Vine Tomatoes with Tempura Veg & Salsa Verde Dressing Cous Cous Stuffed Peppers with Mixed Salad & New Potatoes Marinated Tofu & Noodle Stir fry with Bean Sprouts Dessert: Red Wine Poached Pear With Sorbet Fruit Salad with Fruit Coulis Glazed Pineapple with Mango & Chlli Are you kidding me? I don't get great options like this even when eating at restaurants with vegan options. I got the orange/walnut salad, cous cous stuffed peppers and glazed pineapple and everything was fantastic! Some of the best food I've ever eaten. This place can really cook. (By the way, my non-vegan colleagues loved their food as well) If you are vegan and want to go here, please e-mail them in advance, so they can provide some options and plan for your visit. Not only was the food great, but the place has a nice cozy atmosphere and the owner and staff are great. Not only was the service great, but the owner actually drove us all back to our hotel in Swindon, which isn't that close. I can't say enough about this place, because it was such a surprise. I wish they would come to Minneapolis and set up a restaurant here, because it would beat every pub in town. The next time I go to Swindon, I will be back.

I discovered Three Crowns while working as a consultant in nearby Swindon one summer. This cozy pub was the "go-to" spot whenever the team needed a break from our normal routine (hotel food or late night kebab trucks). Particularly memorable was the "Taste of the Wild"-- kangaroo, ostrich, and venison. The meat wasn't too gamy, and cream sauce was amazing! The homemade desserts are also fantastic. They even have a proper English cheese tray that they roll right up to your table. The Stilton I tried was far and away the best I've ever eaten. And cheese for dessert! Boy, the British sure know how to live! It's a lovely drive into the countryside (including some sketchy single-lane roads!) and well worth it once in a while to splurge on a great meal!

I'd had a busy day in London - it was a Friday and very very cold - so I was itching to get out and experience something rural - heartwarming and cosy. As you drive into Oaksey - everything in Winter is dark - so unless you know your way - you have to be careful not to miss any of the signs. We pulled into what was a very very small village - typically Cotswolds. Small cottages etc - think 'The Holiday' with Cameron Diaz. The pub is off the main road. Inside is a bar area, with a smart looking restaurant around the back. The crowd looks country-ish - yet smart and welcoming. We were shown straight to our table. Usually you'd have to book, but on this occasion - and it being bitterly cold - it wasn't too busy. The menu is fantastic, and our waitress (working alone) knew a lot about the food - despite appearing to come across like an A-Level student. There's an 'Award winning' burger which my friend had, and a spectacular selection of vegetarian offerings. I say this is as most British country pubs specialise in meat; the good ones will have vegetarian options that surpass the meat equivalent - not seeming like 'a second option' or a 'viable alternative'. The bill was reasonable (I guess that) I was lucky enough not to see it. In any case, most country pubs don't exceed London prices - some of them may try and match them. The exception being where there is a celebrity chef involved. As we left, everything was covered in a blanked of snow, and I felt very sleepy whilst being driven back to where we were staying. Possibly because of the Chilean Merlot I had. Overall, I would say it's a gem of pub - which in the winter - is like a haven amidst the darkness.
