"Sunday lunch falls into two camps in my experience over-complicated, over-hip and small, or bland, big and stodgy. Last Sunday at the Wheelwrights Arms I enjoyed a superb Sunday roast that got just the right balance of flavour, concept and portion size. I was...initially reluctant to pay £17.50 for roast pork belly, but everything, including the excellent service, was so good I think it was worth it. You can drive to the pub or walk most of the way along the Kennet and Avon canal path, and you can also access it from the Two Tunnels Greenway walk. It was raining when we went so we couldn't sit in the lovely sunny garden, but no matter. The succulent and generous wodge of pork belly came with perfect roasties, Yorkshire pudding (slighty overdone actually), crisp buttery cabbage, a whole and pleasingly soft, aniseedy carrot without the gritty top left on as so many chefs do, apple sauce, baked Roscoff onion, and a delicious gravy that the staff are willing to top up whenever necessary. My vegetarian friend was initially disappointed there was no nut roast option, but she just swapped out the pork for a portion of cauliflower cheese and was very happy. Desserts were also really good and although rich and satisfying, not overly sweet and cloying. I had a brownie with blood orange sorbet and chocolate sauce, and my friend had an exemplary sticky toffee pudding. If you want to treat yourself to a really special Sunday roast I can highly recommend The Wheelwrights Arms."
