"I recently dined at the best Indian restaurant I have ever been to. I couldn't find fault with anything. The restaurant had ample seating and we did not feel rushed at all. Our dinner was served promptly and the quality of the food was excellent. I highly recommend trying their Butter Chicken and Jalfrezi dishes. The service was top-notch and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. The price per person was in the range of £20-£30. The best part was that there was plenty of parking available, and it was free to park in the parking lot."

"We visited Sunday lunchtime with our little dog. We had a very warm welcome from the landlord and his team, and this excellent service continued throughout. The Sunday menu offered dishes other than a roast which is what we both opted for. The ribs were meaty, juicy and very tasty, the salmon full of flavour with a great sauce and accompaniments. We shared a dessert which we regretted as it was so delicious! The wine was perfectly chilled with plenty of choice available for all tastes. The beer and gin selection was extensive. The landlord suggested a lovely local walk to take our dog on afterwards which we did and she reported that she had a great time bounding around the fields! We will definitely come back to this hidden gem and highly recommend it."

"I organised a group of us from work to go along to Casa in Melksham based on a single recommendation from one of the team. Whilst they required for us to pay a deposit up front and pre-order this was totally understandable given the number of us. Having said that I was nervous as my only experience of Italian restaurants previously have been poor. The menu was varied and offered good descriptions for this of us like me who are not keen Italian restaurant goers. The food did not disappoint with everyone reporting the food to be excellent. The restaurant has accommodated is on one huge long table and we all had plenty of space. The servers were great and drink selection was good too. Overall, would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone."

"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."

"Thoroughly enjoyed our meal celebrating our adult son's birthday. The staff were so welcoming, the food was delicious and there was lots to choose from so it wasnt a problem for our fussy teenage daughter to find something she liked. The two steaks were cooked perfectly, medium as requested, hubbys mixed grill was well done as requested and the rest of the main meals were delicious. Dad is a retired chef so very fussy and first to criticise but he enjoyed his food too! My only criticism would be the sticky tables. They were obviously cleaned a lot, apparent by the lack of varnish but this made them sticky. They were very clean though. I would definitely recommend The Water Meadow, ideal for everyone, wheelchair friendly and well behaved dogs welcome too."
