About Hall & Woodhouse Wichelstowe

Hall & Woodhouse Wichelstowe is a canal-side restaurant in Swindon, on Peglars Wy, where designated dog areas cover over half the space, so guests with dogs get a table without being squeezed into a corner. The building stands right next to the canal within a housing complex. It is a large space with plenty of tables, and a nautical theme runs through the decor alongside historical items on the walls and ceiling. Food is served all day, and the menu includes fish and chips with cauliflower cheese as a side, plus a Sunday roast. Guests can order at the bar or from the table, and the staff guide arrivals to the seating area and bring menus. The restaurant is open daily.

Customer Review Summary

Diners most often single out the friendly, attentive table service, with servers described as never rushing anyone and nothing being too much trouble. The food comes close behind, called delicious and tasty, with fish that tasted fresh and a cup and teapot one reviewer loved. The setting also draws comment: a huge space beside the canal with a nautical theme, historical items on the walls and ceiling, designated areas for dogs, and a pleasant canal walk before eating. Ordering at the bar is described as quick, though it can also be done from the table. The complaints are specific. One reviewer found the cauliflower cheese extremely bland, another noted slow drink service early on a quiet day, and one fish and chips order had greasy batter and a plate with 6 chips while the matching meal had double. Several reviewers were celebrating, and one describes an engagement while another had a wedding meal with little extra touches.

    “A very interesting building with lots of random interest historical items around the walls and ceiling. Staff all friendly and the food was tasty with portion sizes ok. Although within a new housing complex the canal runs alongside for a pleasant walk before eating.”
