Really nice pub in a quiet area. The seating area outside is great for the warmer days and inside is very nicely decorated. We just stopped in for a drink and the owners are friendly and the service was great. Will definitely visit again.

Didn't managed to get to dine here as we were told to go elsewhere. We arrived after finding this place highly rated on Google maps. We have mobility issues. Upon entry we were not acknowledged by a greeting but looked at with a look which says "you're not welcome here". So we patiently waited until assisted. When we inquired about having some food we were told that there is only one person in the kitchen and 20 orders to make so better we go to other place. Great, in the middle of nowhere 2 people with mobility issues. This place doesn't deserve even a star.

Excellent Sunday lunch! Attentive, friendly staff with the best Sunday roast we've had in a long time. Very reasonable prices and fresh beautifully cooked food. Big car park and lovely countryside views. What's not to like!!

We came to the calley arms after earlier in the day learning they provide gluten free food. When we arrived they had stopped serving food but the man I spoke to earlier said he would cook us some as I had come in earlier. Wow. It was a feast. The food was delicious, my wife said it was the best gluten free fish and chips that she had had. The staff were very friendly and was a very welcoming atmosphere. If we lived closer we would come back all the time. Couldn't recommend enough

Half a pint of Pimms is £7 - very expensive.

My husband and I were in Swindon for work and wanted to have a pub meal, but where to go? So many choices. We eventually opted for a place in the countryside that had great reviews.On a Tuesday evening, there weren’t many customers, but the atmosphere was warm and welcoming and the whole room had a cosy feeling to it.We sat near the fireplace as it was quite cold that night, and we couldn’t help but notice the sign which stated that all the food was prepared to order. Good sign. I ordered the lamb shank, my husband the hamburger. After a short wait, two amazing main dishes were delivered: the lamb shank had a generous serving of the creamiest mash potato, lots of fresh veggies, and minted gravy (a delicious accompaniment for the tender meat, falling off the bone). The cheese and bacon burger was served inside a toasted brioche bun, with tomatoes and lettuce, a freshly made, delicious coleslaw, beer batter onion rings and fries. My husband was very impressed with the quality and amazing flavour of each ingredient, everything was fresh and beautifully tasty.We followed with a rhubarb crumble with icecream, which was a very generous serving and left us very satisfied. After dinner the lovely landlord put more wood in the fireplace, and we could sit on the comfy sofa with our feet up, watching a football match on telly. We really felt at home and we could totally relax and unwind, after having had a delicious meal.This lovely country pub is highly recommended!
