The Half Moon - Wiltshire

Lovely pub have stopped in a few times , just love the pink phone box

I don’t like leaving a bad review but this place is awful, just awful. The worst experience that I have had in a pub round Shaftesbury in the last twenty years. Food dreadful and very slow to appear. Service of the 'look in the opposite direction quickly if you think the customer wants something ' variety. The website suggests that the place is under new management. Sorry guys, but you have a serious problem.

A handy spot to meet up with family, as we've done many times. Something has gone very wrong since our last visit. We wanted a quick bite to eat, so only ordered starters. They took an hour to arrive! Not impressed guys. On the plus side, the staff were great (but given too much to do). Hope things get sorted out soon...

Waited 45 mins for a beef burger and chicken burger on a Thursday lunchtime. Service really appalling. Burger was a standard frozen burger and tasteless, chicken burger was fried until it was black and tasted horrible. Bun was days old stale, and crumbled the second you picked it up. Very disappointing.

Dreadful and I won't be going back. Two of us went for lunch on Friday 19th Jan and arrived when only one other table was occupied. The garlic bread took about 15 minutes to arrive. We then waited another 35 minutes for our main courses before asking the manager if our order had been forgotten. He just asked the waitress who was run off her feet trying to take orders, serve good and make drinks at the bar. She brought the food immediately so it had obviously been waiting in the kitchen. The fish and chips arrived (yuk), the peas were cold, the chips greasy and the fish was obviously frozen and uncooked in the middle. Everything was tasteless too, in fact it was so bad that we sent it back. We declined the offer to make it again and asked for the bill. They had removed the fish and chips so we paid for our garlic bread and drinks, handed the waitress a nice tip and left.
