About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Charming
  • Great for outdoor dining
Richard, Beth and Team are delighted to welcome you their charming, 18th Century Pub, The Dumb Post Inn, a picturesque village pub situated in the village of Bremhill, with good links to the stunning City of Bath.

Conveniently situated between Calne and Chippenham, with beautiful views over the nearby Bowood estate, The Dumb Post is an award winning, traditional country gastropub, offering quality cask ales and exceptional home cooked food using locally sourced ingredients.

Family owned since 2009, but only managed by the family since 2019, Richard stepped away from his career as an aircraft engineer, to protect this much loved pub and to ensure that The Dumb Post could run to its potential.

Richard and Beth both grew up in Bremhill and are driven by a passion for the area as well as this historic, family owned pub. They take enormous pride in offering the best local produce available, including the family farm for their supply of lamb and beef.

    Food was good and very fresh. Menu did not match what is online. In fact the online version was on a different planet compared to offering when we arrived. Service was good.

    The food and views were superb, staff very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately the two rounds were incorrect, what a pity, Staff were apologetic and resolved quickly. One mistake could be excused but two?
