If you are looking for the best curry ever, look no further than The Lord Nelson pub in Winterslow. These are no ordinary pub curries but authentic delicious and great value. We haven’t had a better curry anywhere! You must try Ash’s tapas as well….chicken...satay is very, very good, my favourite but everything else is tasty too. A lovely welcome awaits and if your experience is the same as ours then you are sure to enjoy your trip to The Lord Nelson.More

We'd moved from our first choice because their menu was very vegan unfriendly. This was much better. Vegetable tart, onion bhajee, paratha, Brie wedges, margherita pizza, chicken bacon and leek pie. All good. The pub was very busy but we didn't have to wait too...long. Service attentive. No time (or space) for pudding but, all in all, a good experience. Perhaps we'll avoid late Friday afternoon in the future but we are likely to return.More

Well what a find , this is on the face of it a quiet village pub and as such could easily be passed by. If you enjoy a well kept pint and a good meal then i can recommend this place. I noted that quite...a few people had mentioned the currys on here, and being a bit of a curry fan thought it sounded interesting , most pub currys are ok with some being better than others , so i thought we,d give it a go. Now i must admit that we visted on a Saturday lunchtime so some were not in curry mode at just gone 12 noon, so on to the menu. The starters feature quite a few indian treats so we thought we could test the water with these before committing to a full meal , cue onion bhajis, poppadoms and pickles , chicken tikka and salt and pepper squid ( yes i know the last ones a curve ball , but we like it) After that the order was for a chicken tikka madras , chicken tikka dopiaza, and two Guiness and steak pies. Now i guess you could argue that you can get better curry in a dedicated curry house and i am not going to dissagree with that , the point i am trying to get across here is that this was the best pub curry meal I have ever had in 40 + years ( trust me i,ve had a few in that time) As for the pies they were proper pies ,not a cassarole with a pastry lid and were served with well cooked chips and fresh veg , these again were descibed as being excellent. ( i know of a Dartmoor pub that sets the standard for pies and these were of a almost as good standard). Okay now for the not so good , I dont like to post negitive comments ( enough to go around as there is), but i will say that I could not run a pub or a kitchen that provides food and drink of this quality , so i am in no position to judge people on something i cannot do myself. But i can use a broom and a dustpan and these could be used to great effect in the garden . Overall yes a very good kind , will i go back ? Oh yes.More

Fabulous old style pub, suffering a mix of Indian and classic pub dishes. Steak was good and at a reasonable price, The beer was superb as is the staff, highly recommended. They even offer takeaway!

Called in for lunch while out cycling on a Friday. Very friendly team, nice garden with individual booths as well as tables- so should be able to sit outside in poor weather. Plenty of space to lean bikes while eating, with easy access. Food (we...had scampi/whitebait with chips) was excellent- in fact the chips were about the best I have ever had.More

Stopped for lunch, a sunny Saturday. Sat in the garden in a pod. We both had chicken tikka curry and pilau rice with poppadums, and chutney tray! WOW SUPERB

Easy to find along the main road through Middle Winterslow. We came from Salisbury so about 15mins drive away. Glad we booked ahead for 7pm on a Saturday night as it soon filled up. We had the homemade beef burger and the homemade southern fried...chicken burger - absolutely delicious and so filling! The staff were friendly and attentive. Jasmine and her front of house team made us feel welcome and Ash and the kitchen team obviously know what they're doing behind the scenes too! Prices were reasonable and reflected the good quality of the food. There's a decked area out front just off the road, and a beer garden with individual wooden huts. Inside is a pool table and there's seating either side of the bar, though the main dining is heading out towards the beer garden. Would definitely come again and would recommend.More

Another great curry from the curry master . Great pub and really friendly people and to top it off the best curry for miles around. Thank you once again.

Always been a good pub the bar staff are polite and friendly the landlord seems to be rastist against the travelling community but apart from that very good.

We stopped in after walking the first leg of the Clarendon way. We were so surprised and delighted by the Indian curries that are on the menu. We had the best Indian meal we have had for such a long time it was excellent. And...also the waitress was so lovely and friendly it was such a lovely welcome and a great experience and to top it all first class food. We are just telling all our friends and going to be returning soon. What a great find.More

Visited Friday 21st October at 7pm, We were welcomed like family at the Lord Nelson and this was our first visit! The quaint village pub is a true Hidden Gem, We had a mixed Starter that was to die for and the selection of Main...dishes and side covered every base. I have never had food so tasty and delicious at a pub. Service was great and the Guinness absolutely perfect. This place is very good value for money, welcoming, warm and friendly with tremendous Food and drink offering. A Wonderful experience.More
