About the restaurant

At Pythouse Kitchen Garden, you'll find an idyllic atmosphere in which to enjoy fantastic food. We offer covered outdoor seating in our glorious garden and indoor seating in the conservatory and potting shed. Pythouse Kitchen Garden is a lunchtime destination only at present.

Head chef Darren Broom's passion lies in producing food with an unmistakable sense of terroir. For Darren, provenance is not just the backstory to his ingredients, it’s everywhere in the look, feel and taste of his food.

We are keen to champion our own produce first and foremost, providing guests with a unique and ever-changing insight into the seasons. We work closely with the garden team to manage and maintain the garden and to deliver a programme of regeneration and sustainability.

A veritable Cotswolds institution for over forty-five years, William’s has recently benefitted from a full-scale refurbishment of both the restaurant and shop area in January 2020.

Alongside a 64-cover new restaurant sits a new fish counter displaying an outstanding range of fresh seafood, delivered daily from Scotland and the South West coastline. The adjacent delicatessen offers a large selection of chef-prepared meals, cheeses, charcuterie and terrines as well as fresh fruit and vegetables.

Once again an absolutely superb evening at William's Kitchen. Food, service, hosting and ambience were wonderful. We took visiting friends for their first visit there; Alex and her colleagues made them (and us) feel very, very welcome. A really magic experience every time we go there - so grateful and great praise to all staff...and the chef!

Starters and mains were just as anticipated, full of flavour. Portion sizes perfect. Staff checked in to ensure we were happy with food but we’re not intrusive. My favourite Italian restaurant and will be the place I recommend if asked by friends and family.

Allium was fabulous! A real gem in Salisbury. The food was imaginative, well presented and very tasty. I’m not vegetarian, but I was inspired by the vegetarian options and they were so delicious, I did not miss the fish or meat! As I was not drinking alcohol, I tried the Coconut fizz mocktail, which was excellent - again, I did not miss the alcohol! We will definitely return.

With 3 vegans/Vegetarians in the group we weren’t overwhelmed with choice. The vegan menu hadn’t changed for at least a year. However what we ate was pleasant enough and enjoyed by all. Drinks were very expensive.
