My first trip here was to have a drink and meet up with some of Mr. Snarky's colleagues from work…read more We sat outside and I have to say, if I were to suggest a place for drinks with my friends, it would be the Pig on the Hill. They have some wonderful posters on the wall as well and apparently you can commission one! Today I was exploring more of Swindon and happened to see that they now serve food all day! I took at a look at the menu outside and it looked really lovely, so I went in. I noticed there were no numbers on the tables, so I was a bit unsure as to how to proceed. So I went up to the bar and asked and they said they would be happy to come and take my order when I had settled. I chose a nice table in the corner, you could see the t.v. or out of the window. Although, I have to say I kept noticing that when cars drove by there was a sewer cover that was clanging about... a little bothersome, but I guess if there are more people in the pub, you wouldn't necessarily hear it. There were quite a few things that stood out to me on the menu... actually a lot of things stood out to me, but one thing that really took my fancy was the vegetarian burger option. Again, not a vegetarian and typically the idea of a black bean burger doesn't excite me like a juicy patty of meat, however, the idea of a mushroom, jalapeno, and pinto bean burger sounded intriguing. There is also a smaller menu, a lunch menu, that has a selection of sandwiches served with slaw and olives. So if you are in a hurry or need to get back to work, they have you covered. The waitress came over and apologized saying she had forgotten to come over and take my order, but to be honest, I don't think I was waiting that long. When the burger came out (I will be uploading a picture) it was massive. It was a bit different than what I expected and there were some things on the burger that I wasn't expecting. The mushroom was a large flat cap mushroom with a slice of Goat's Cheese, some time of spread that I can only describe as either hummus or ground pinto beans, grilled peppers, grilled zucchini, slices of tomato, and lettuce. This was all served on a wood board with slaw and fries. I did sit there for a minute trying to figure out how to start this burger. I know I have a big mouth, but even sometimes I get stumped with these massive sandwiches. Eventually I decided to use the steak knife holding it together to cut it in half. While the view of the dissected sandwich was stunning (the lettuce at the bottom was so carefully placed, not just tossed on as an afterthought), it may have been a mistake as the other half began to slide apart. The mushroom was nice and tender, Goat's Cheese was quite chewy and squeaky which made me wonder if it was a different type of cheese (because I am lactose challenged, I don't have an extensive knowledge about cheese). The problem with the sandwich was that everything inside was quite slippery and juicy so things were sliding and the bottom bun was disintegrating. I loved all of the vegetables that were in the sandwich, but would have liked a bit more seasoning. The spread on the top... not sure what it was, hummus or ground pinto beans, but a bit of spice in that would've taken the sandwich to a whole new level... maybe a bit of cumin, squeeze of lemon. I don't believe there was salsa or jalapenos on the sandwich as the menu had stated, which might have helped with the seasoning. I loved the slaw, it had a hint of horseradish for bite and there was some whole grain mustard in it as well for an added bit of tangy-ness. The fries were lovely and came with a homemade ketchup which was also quite lovely. The dessert selection looked lovely, but I was absolutely stuffed after the sandwich. I would love to come back and try out some of the other dishes and perhaps get some dessert as well! They have happy hour, they also have a deal on Tuesdays where those buying a bottle of wine can receive a cheese board for two... or you could buy a large glass of wine and get a small cheese sampler for one. Also, if it is your birthday and you book your birthday dinner, you get a three course dinner for free!

Giraffe is rapidly taking over Swindon! This is the second one that has popped up in less than a…read moreyear. While I do like some of the items at Giraffe, I was hoping that they would put in a different restaurant at the outlets to offer more variety. The great thing is that the car park is now open until midnight, meaning if you wanted to go to one of the restaurants for dinner, you now have parking options. It was a weekend, specifically a Saturday so the outlet was very busy. We decided it was time for lunch, but noticed queues for Pizza Express, Wagamama's, KFC, Ed's... so we thought, let's see if there is a wait at Giraffe. There wasn't a wait for tables, but the hostess did inform us that there would be about a 20-30 minute wait for food. At this point we knew we would be waiting anywhere we went, so we told her it was no problem. The restaurant does have an "outdoor" area... I say "outdoor" because it isn't actually outdoor, but it is outside of the main part of the restaurant and I believe it has a play area. We were seated in a very tight area, where Mr. Snarky ended up partially in a walkway where the wait staff were buzzing through and I was being shaken/moved by the very enthusiastic lady sitting behind me. We would have requested another table, but it looked like the other tables hadn't been cleaned off. We made due and fortunately no one ended up with food spilled on them. While we were waiting, I thought I would check in on my handy Yelp! app, but noticed that there must be a black spot for data coverage. Mr. Snarky checked his phone and had the same problem... so just be aware of that as I don't believe there is wifi coverage in the restaurant. I was sad to see that the menu has been changed a bit and my favourite vegetarian burrito is not on the menu anymore :/. No, I am not a vegetarian, but this is one of those dishes I will happily ignore meat for. It meant time to try something new. I decided to try one of their pasta dishes since I have never had pasta at Giraffe before. I tried the "Milanese" Chicken Linguine and Mr. Snarky had the Chorizo Sausage Carbonara. I didn't think the wait for food was as long as the hostess had quoted. In fact, I think we waited longer for someone to acknowledge us and take our drinks order than we did for our food. We did order some garlic bread and we are always thrown off when this green bread comes out to us. I'm not sure if it is supposed to be pesto, but it just tastes like garlic. Our pasta looked delicious when it came to us. The food was good, but nothing life changing. In fact, we noticed that my dish is very similar to a dish that I make at home when I have leftover cherry tomatoes or don't want a heavy sauce like bolognese or ragu. Overall our meal was good, service was a bit hit and miss, but if you happen to be at the outlet and looking for a place to have a meal, you now have another option!

After a 30 min wait for the order to arrive, it came stone cold from a 2 min drive. On calling to complain I was directed to Uber Eats the delivery company that is partnered up with McDonald's to chase down the problem, After a struggling conversation with someone I was not really able to understand I was informed that my order would be refunded. After hanging up and checking my accounts I then noticed I was charged a delivery fee again and I had an Email saying I was only getting the money back for the food and not the delivery so in total I was charged for delivery twice. After this, i chose to call McDonald's Customer service who refused to do anything in the matter than offer me some petty vouchers for a meal I could not eat and money that is being stolen from me. I will attempt to talk to uber eats again after I confirm the refund has been issued and I know the full about what has been stolen from me for a cold inedible meal.

I selected the Small Farmhouse breakfast which consisted of sausage, bacon, egg, hash brown, mushrooms, baked beans and a slice of toast with butter and jam. My husband selected the Farmhouse breakfast which had the same ingredients but twice as much. Of special note are the sausages which were very meaty and that the breakfast was cooked to perfection with none of the grease that can often be present. They also serve a full range of hot drinks so I was able to select a decaf latte. The menu includes some sandwich-type options and there were a few scones etc. for those who don't have our appetites. Service was fast for us. We arrived soon after they opened so only about 4 tables were already filled, so I cannot speak to service speed when they are busy, but they looked to have plenty of staff on duty. I forgot to take photos of the food but it was excellent.
