Had a business lunch on the veranda. Staff knew the menu well, gave clear recommendations without hovering. The setting was efficient for a meeting.

Easy to find next to Tesco. Good for a quick bite. Staff were fast and friendly. Got the chicken wrap, decent portion and tasted fresh. Perfect for a lunch break.

Pasta was loaded with prawns, really flavourful. Everything came out hot, portions are generous. Just a solid meal.

Travelled a fair distance for this. The food came out quickly, which was perfect with our toddler. One of the better Indian meals we&#39;ve had.

The pistachio ice cream was the best part for me. They serve it with a dollop of cream on top. The flavour is so rich and genuine, just like proper gelato you&#39;d get in Italy. Really enjoyed it.

Good portions for the price, and a huge menu to choose from. The vibe was just right&mdash;really relaxed and friendly.

Came for the afternoon tea with friends. The little savoury tarts were so good, and the cheesecake that looked like a flower pot was a fun surprise! A really nice spot for a long catch-up.

The fish and chips were spot on - lovely and crispy. The atmosphere was relaxed, and the staff were really friendly. My only small note is that the seating was a bit snug for a longer meal, but it was still a nice, easy lunch.

The fennel salami and Tomme cheese sandwich was a real find. The bread had this perfect, crisp crust that just gave way. For under a fiver, it felt like a little treat. Romsey&#39;s lucky to have this spot.

A solid meal, service was prompt. The location on the Esplanade is very convenient. Good for a straightforward business lunch.

Been coming here for years. The shortbread is consistently good, just like it always was.

The bartender was so nice, really made our little group feel welcome. Everyone working there seems genuinely friendly, which is nice when you&#39;re just catching up with friends.

The staff were so considerate about my dietary needs. They checked everything carefully and made me feel completely at ease. It&#39;s rare to have a meal out without any worry.

Been coming here for years. The roast beef on Sundays is always spot on, proper tender and flavourful. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back. Staff are friendly too.

The member pricing on the main courses is a solid perk. The ribeye was cooked exactly right, but the peppercorn sauce was a bit thin for my taste. Still, the meat itself was spot on.

The team really made my daughter&rsquo;s day special with a surprise cake and a little song. It was a lovely touch. The food, as always, was full of flavour and you can tell it&rsquo;s made with care.

The French onion soup was really rich, and the monkfish tail had this great sauce. But honestly, what stuck with me was the room itself &ndash; the lighting was so soft and the chairs were actually comfortable for a long dinner. Just a nice, relaxed spot.

Focused menu, creative dishes. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Had a quick lunch there, food came out fast. Solid spot for a good bite.

As a coeliac, I really appreciated the care here. They have separate equipment for gluten-free prep, which is a huge relief. Felt safe ordering, and nearly everything on the menu was an option for me.

Been coming here for years, and the halibut and chips is always spot on. Huge portion, cooked perfectly. Even on a busy Friday, they found us a table on the lawn. That consistency is why I keep coming back.

The homemade pies and cakes are solid. You can tell they&#39;re made with care. Had the apple pie, crust was good, not too sweet. A decent spot for a quick dessert.

First time trying their lamb shank. It was so tender it just fell apart, with this deep, rich flavour that wasn&#39;t too heavy. Really hit the spot on a chilly evening.

Nice little pub just outside Lyndhurst. Had the ploughman&#39;s lunch - it was huge and really hit the spot. A solid choice for a proper, filling meal.

The caramelised onion on my panini was just right, not too sweet. The gentleman serving us was so polite, it added to the cozy feel of the place. A really nice lunch spot.

Stumbled upon this place on a New Forest walk. The puttenesca pasta really stood out &ndash; loved the salty kick from the capers and anchovies. Portions were generous too.

The chateaubriand was the star. Perfect for two, cooked just right. You could really taste the quality of the meat. Everything else was solid, though the sides were a bit simple for my taste.

The staff were so kind about the ice cream mishap. They just brought a fresh one over with a smile, no questions asked. Really appreciated that.

Popped in for a late breakfast. The food was fresh and well-prepared. Their iced coffee was spot on&mdash;really hit the mark with a full, rich flavour that paired nicely with the meal. Solid value for what you get.
