I am afraid that the meals we had yesterday were pretty awful. The staff were fabulous and couldn't have been more friendly but we won't be coming back. The steak pie I had first time was full of gristle and all three dishes of pie and veg, were floating in gravy. I was served a second pie in exchange yet that was black inside showing that it was very much over cooked. I have to say that the fish was over cooked too. I felt for the two ladies serving as it was not their fault, and I won't be travelling across from Chichester again. Real sorry
A traditional English pub with authentic ales, delicious pub food, a charming thatched roof, and a characterful interior. We brought some Australian friends along and they also enjoyed all the classic English elements. There's nothing not to love about this place. You may even spot free-range pigs and donkeys grazing by the roadside in the New Forest, adding to the English charm. I can't wait to return for a Sunday roast.
It was a nice pub lunch with friends . Reasonably priced , good atmosphere . I had the sausage roll, husband had the ploughmans- never had a ploughmans with quiche included before. He really enjoyed the ploughmans , paid extra pound for the ham which was fine, but baulked at paying an extra 4 pounds for coleslaw. Our friends enjoyed their food too. I’d happily go back again if we were in the area
Friendly enough staff but food was horrendous....I ordered nachos...crisps thrown in a bowl with warm cheese thrown over....so hard I could stand my fork up in them...no taste at all....Iceland food I'm guessing....the prawn tempura was warmnot hot....massively over priced for what your getting....definitely would avoid this pub for food...urghhh!

This New Forest pub has a wonderful atmosphere. The staff are friendly and our Sunday lunch was excellent, just like it has been on our previous visits. It's a disappointment when people leave negative reviews for simple dishes like nachos, which are essentially just crisps with cheese on top. I recommend trying a roast next time, Daisywaisy!
We visit here a couple of times a year to meet up with family as it's a good half-way point. The food is always good as is the choice of food and the staff do everything to accommodate us. It will continue to be our first choice in this area.
Can't fault the place. Beautiful building, incredibly friendly staff, good real ale, an interesting and reasonably priced menu. Seriously, probably worth six stars if such an accolade existed!
The food was fantastic and the staff was extremely friendly. The fish finger sandwiches were delicious. It was a pleasant surprise to discover a restaurant with such a good gluten-free menu.

Fantastic food and service , we sat in marquee , great vibe , food menu was great for both me veggie and husband non veggie ... Superb and we will go back
£12 for one large glass seems astronomical to me. Even if it was a New Zealand Cabernet Sauvignon. Upmarket restaurant maybe.
