Any recommendations for a family celebration in Swindon? It's coming out as the most central place for travelling to.
Must have parking nearby ( one member has mobility issues).
Must be not blasting music so older (And deafer) members can hear conversation.

TIA

Sorry ... Probably about 12 for a 21st birthday lunch. But it's multi generational.

May not be the best quality food but plenty of it and walking distance from station

What kind of budget? The Weighbridge is lovely and has parking but isn't cheap.

There's also a few restaurants at the premium outlets with loads of parking

There's a really nice Italian in town called Fratellos. Really really good food! Loads of paid parking in the Cineworld complex over the road and I think they might have their own small car park. They have an area in the basement that sits a large group, we have used it for work meals

Theres also a few decent chain places like Ask in that complex mentioned above

Thank you. Dad is paying so I don't know budget. I'm off to Google both places now. Insider info is always best!

Swindon Rendevous, Chinese restaurant , all you can eat buffet but not one you have to help yourself to , you order fresh off the extensive menu and it's brought to your table piping hot . If more than six guests the guest celebrating a birthday eats free . set price but if you have a big appetite you certainly get your money's worth and the food is very good .

That sounds good, Linda. Do they arrange their serviettes with pegs in matching order?! 😆 How are you?
