Food Scene

If you want to try something a bit different for your evening meal - try the town's Nepalese restaurant. Its staff are delightful and the food is spicy but not greasy. Yum.

Drinks & Nightlife

My local pub is the closest pub to the Hall and Woodhouse brewery, about 200 m from where the beer is made. They do simple pub meals that rarely disappoint, and the beer is good.

Although not the closest station, rail links to London are better and usually cheaper from Salisbury.
