Bellemoor in Southampton

Met with a friend, had dinner and bottle of sparkly wine and enjoyed a catch up. Lovely evening good food and great location

Love this pub! Food is always good, i’ve had most things on the menu and all very good. Kids meals are also good. Staff are very friendly and give brilliant service every time i visit. We had breakfast with Santa 9 adults and 5 children! The service and food was still brilliant even at the busiest time of the year. Highly recommended.

!" of us had an excellent Xmas meal yesterday. What a busy team!! Yes, issue with the table but sorted by Manager Craig. All the staff were polite and helpful. Food was a tad late but perfect, worth the wait. No queues for drinks. Really great experience. Thanks to the Bellemoor staff, Happy Christmas

Only 2 of 3 starters arrived The staff ask for extra drinks and walk off when one person said anything he did not wait for the other guest to ask

Great pub with friendly staff and good atmosphere. Food came within a good amount of time and the staff accommodated the 7 children we had between ourselves and our friends

Great atmosphere, plenty of seating inside and outside. Good food and beer selections, as well as other beverages available.

We haven’t been to the Bellemoor as a family for over a month now. We are regulars. Yesterday and today we as a family had to spend long days at the hospital so we decided to book to eat there this evening 23rd November. When entering the pub the staff are welcoming and attentive especially as it was very busy this evening. All staff behind the bar and waiting staff were lovely. What let everyone down massively was the food. I usually take pictures of everything but I didn’t on this occasion as the food came out later for myself, mum and dad although we ordered it within seconds apart from my aunts. My steak was a disgrace. Not worth more that a £5 I say!!! I asked for a medium rare it was well cooked and tough. ****I THOUGHT NO POINT TO SAY ANYTHING AS THIS IS SUPER BUSY HERE THIS EVENING***** My mum said her fish and chips her fish was very chewy and hard the peas were not cooked enough and very dry. My aunty had the same as me steak she did not like hers either. WE WILL NOT BE EATING HERE AGAIN!!! Good for an old get together for a few drinks just about!!!

Diabolical and racist, staff refused to serve me all upon the assumption of cannabis smell, two guys walk past me 20 mins after i arrive snd because they know me from school she refused to serve me, asked about the no tolerance policy and couldnt explain the actual policy. No drugs were found. No drugs were smoked. No one had anything on them but as i probably stick out from the rest being a larger guy. They insisted that it was me and my “party” i explained to them to check me if they was really invested. Really upset with this pub. Was coming here for years. One staff member who was finishing even tried to get in my face and argue with me!!!! This place needs new management or at least some re training. No wonder u never see any ethnic minority in there!!!

🥦🍖🥕🥔🥕🍖🥦 Had a Roast Dinner Turkey was ok Vegetables were nice and fresh Roast potatoes were fried I think Strawberry mini dessert was fabulous Staff were very attentive and we stayed for the pub quiz which is fabulous A good visit and a great atmosphere as always

Food great and service was excellent.nothing too much trouble

Very friendly, a great atmosphere and a delicious breakfast.

Not sure what went wrong today? Popped in for a breakfast, which we have done before and have been really pleased with the food. However today, it was served on a small rectangular plate. The fried eggs were not runny, the beans looked they had been sat in a pan simmering for hours but somehow were still served luke warm. The butter was rock hard and unspreadable! As we were having a conversation the waitress wanted the menus for some unknown reason, only to return them again, wanting us to put them back in the holder. Why this couldn't wait until we left , I don't know? The coffees were barely warm and more froth than actual coffee. Very disappointed!

We love this place, beautiful welcoming pub. We have been here a few times before for dinner as a couple. Last weekend we hosted a group event here with thirty people including children. We had warm welcome, they reserved a big enough area for us which was also pet friendly. The food and drink are great with good value for money, and the service is also very good. Additionally you can find plenty of free car parking on the street, and get a nice walk in the Southampton Commons on a nice day. We will definitely host large events in this pub. Thank you for your hospitality.

Popped to the Bellemoor as a first time patron as I was in the area for work. The place has a very warm atmosphere. Delightful service from the girls on the bar. Great ale selection. As a first time patron. I somehow missed the many signs highlighting registering your number plate for parking. Steve very kindly corrected my error days later. I will certainly be attending again in the future when I'm in the area.

Great service, friendly staff and good food at a good price

Very expensive, flat beer but vibs are immaculate

Good selection of dishes. Prompt service. Reasonably priced.

Today, Sunday 13th October, we called in with the chance of getting a table. With success we ordered a couple of drinks with roast dinners. The service was really good and the food arrived very quickly. It was one of the best roast dinners we have eaten. Definitely would recommend a visit.

An excellent visit to the Bellemoor this evening. We were greeted with a friendly welcome and seated in the restaurant. Drinks flew out and options on beers clearly explained and recommendations given. I ordered the chicken burger and explained I had an allergy which was taken seriously and discussed with the kitchen. Food came out hot and the kitchen has cranberry sauce in to my delight. Craig looked after us and he did the venue proud. Great customer service, food and value for the price. Definitely will visit again

Finally got round to stopping in. This pub is on a route I take often and tonight I thought yep let’s give it a try and I’m glad we did! Pulling up there is a car park to the side of the venue of which you pop your number plate in at the bar, isn’t a massive car park but there are bays outside. I’ve seen this car park full as this place gets busy. Greeted by friendly staff and our waiter was a guy called Craig, attentive, excellent customer service & made you feel welcomed. Venue is warm, well decorated and clean Insta and watched the team clear tables as customers left and clean them down - great. Food was above what I expected for ‘pub grub’. A very enjoyable burger, crispy fries and perfect onion rings. Great value for money and I will be back for another dinner soon enough. Well done to the team indeed, other pubs locally in Southampton need to take note.

The service was good, there were a variety of beers and other drinks. The main was good - I took a rump steak that was well cooked, but the side was a bit small. The dessert was average, I ordered Eton Mess, that did not have any fresh berry. Overall good experience but not excepional so 4 starts.

Really friendly staff. Delicious food. I had the lunchtime deal, which was really good value for money. It was presented well and served with a smile. We will be returning.

Lovely pub , great service. Roast lamb pretty good (roasties and parsnips a bit big to be crunchy).

We came along for dinner as one of my friends is getting married - the manager (Steve?) was welcoming and allowed us to bring a balloon and some gluten free wedding cupcakes (we did order ice cream to go with them). The food was lush and the service was good. It was nice to see a familiar face in Jagoda, who was doing an excellent job. So, good food, good service, nice pub - what else could we wish for!

Delicious food and drinks with quick service, reasonably priced. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The pub had a great atmosphere and the quiz is a must, would definitely recommend!

Service was excellent, good food,

Busy at 11pm which is good to see but not much character

We asked the Bellemore to host a wake for us - the staff were incredibly helpful, the area set aside for us was perfect and the buffet top notch. Thank you to all the team. We certainly recommend you for any special occasion.

The food is ok although I was handed a steak knife for my rib of beef 🍖 witch I had to use ! It was chewy and not what I would expect from rib of beef ! Very tasty though !

Really relaxing pub. Modern casual decor, with a covered outside area to eat. The food was excellent. Great service (our waitress Soph was very attentive). Reasonable prices. Nice toilets, (with thoughtful touches in the ladies' toilets). A small car park, but on the road parking just nearby. Southampton Common is just next door - a great place for a walk. Would highly recommend.

Popped in for lunch food and service excellent

Great pub, great location for post walk drinks on the common. Atmosphere is good but, because it is popular can very busy on special occassions ie Christmas Eve or the like. Has screens for Sport and a fantastic outside area,with heaters, that is mainly undercover so even good in the rain. If you're not kid or dog friendly avoid on a hot sunny day as they'll be out in force 😀

It's a lovely pub with a nice atmosphere but when they serve the food, they then go away again to get your cutlery and condiments, just bring it before so we can tuck in! £4 for a pint of lemonade is so wrong. Like I said, lovely pub thoe.

The food took a while to come out

Good food, relatively quick service, enjoyable evening. Do recommend 👌

Nice light pub. Fast service and pleasant atmosphere.

Really enjoyed their silver award winning pie dish and loved the decor. Staff are super friendly. Highly recommend a visit after a walk in the common nearby.

My friend and I often come to the Bellemoor on a Friday afternoon (with the dog). Through me not paying attention I wrote my friend's reg plate in wrongly last time we came and she got a parking ticket ! I rang Steve at the the pub and all sorted and cancelled within 4 minutes ! Not only is our eating experience great but so is the extra service!

Haven't visited for many years - it is so much better than it used to be years ago. It is now a place I would choose to take friends; good food for dining, helpful staff, pleasant atmosphere, competitive pricing.

There were five of us having lunch here today. Parking was easy, there was a good welcome and drink orders at the bar were quick. There is a varied and good menu reasonably priced, we had four different meals and each one was excellent, the food was hot, well cooked and well presented. Good service from all staff from ordering drinks, ordering food, receiving food to paying the bill. We will certainly be returning very soon and I highly recommend all aspects of our visit. Although we did not use them there were lots of lovely tables and chairs outside which was ideal on a lovely sunny day.

Ten of us oldies met here for the first time, for our bi-annual reunion, travelling from Haslemere, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Chandlers Ford. A large round table had been reserved in a cosy recess. The waitress was friendly and efficient (tall, long dark hair) and the food was brilliant. (Some saying the gammon was the best they had ever tasted). My beef and ale pie was to die for as was the crumble, all at a very reasonable price. Free parking on site. So an excellent time had by all. THANK YOU - "We'll be back!"

We had a lovely time. The food was delicious and the waitress was funny and efficient. I forgot to put my registration in when I came into the pub and called and spoke to Bree who sorted it.

Doesn't look animal friendly. Didnt get offered any service when I arrived and sat outside.

My Mum and I had another lovely meal. The staff were really attentive. It was quite soon after opening so the pub wasn't that busy, but the staff were all keeping busy cleaning shelves and woodwork before the busy bit kicked in. Special mention to James behind the bar who took the time to have a chat with my Mum. The server recommended the pesto chicken, which Mum went on to have. She said it was really tasty. We'll be back.

Spent a great afternoon, sat outside drinking and eating with friends whilst watching the Olympics on their giant outdoor TV. Only comment - if you drive and park next door don't forget to pay or register your car at the bar, otherwise there could be an expensive fine. Great follow up customer service when I phoned to discuss the parking.

Lovely pub, good staff, food good value and very tasty

Nice food and environment. There is an outside area, dining area and traditional bar. Good food and drink options. Excellent pies!

Terrible so called nachos, one of the worst pies I have ever had in my life, the beef bourguignon came with the sadist driest piece of meat, the plate was dirty, the pint glass had lipstick on it, was served by the most miserable manger, must avoid, would be embarrassed to work here.

We stopped off for a quick evening meal and a drink on a busy Sunday evening. The wait for the food was OK taking into consideration we arrived just 20 minutes before the kitchen closed. The food itself was fine, nothing outstanding but equally nothing wrong at all. The waitress was pleasant. We did have to clear our own table to sit, but the evening quiz was in full progress at the time.

Standard Greene King menu in a pleasant setting. Tables are well spaced and there's a nice variety of comfortable seating. Food was pleasant but nothing special and service restricted to delivery of food and drinks - competent but impersonal. Overall an average pub lunch in a slightly above average setting.

Very pleasant pub, not cheap but I'd say average for a decent venue. Clean fresh friendly with good food great staff and a nice atmosphere

I have visited Tavern to try the "award winning pie" and honestly it was very disappointing the mash was allright not really creamy , tenderstem broccoli could use a bit of s&p and the pie itself, nice big chunk of pastry with granulated gravy on the side , i went for a beef and ale pie and there was literally 4 tiny cubes of beef inside the pie i doubt it was even 100g of meat inside , i would rather have this pie 20% smaller pay more and get proper bit of steak inside , unfortunately big disappointment pastry with gravy for 13£ sounds very steep flour is not expensive and it felt like the whole meal was at least 70% flour (considering mash and broccolis on the side) wouldn't come back again .

Whether for a quick coffee or a family meal for ten, food and service is always good. Food is priced fairly and the bar area is dog friendly too. Just make sure you remember to log you car registration at the bar😉.

Incredibly disappointing experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt unwelcome. The staff seemed uninterested and inattentive, barely acknowledging my presence. When our food finally arrived, it was lukewarm and bland.

Cosy atmosphere, great service, lovely live music

Good service and friendly place

Beautifully pub, very friendly staff and delicious food. Highly recommend

Really lovely place to call in for lunch. We stopped here for lunch after singing with Rock Choir at Southampton Race For Life. Very nice atmosphere and good menu.

We had a small family get together & met here for lunch. It was extremely busy due to an event going on, on the common. Luckily we had booked. The staff were really stretch but coped very well & we still had very good service. The food was delicious as usual.

Great place, super friendly staff and great banter, had crimbo dinner here before and was awesome, recently had a steak defo could of been bigger, but still love the place 💯

Dry overcooked meal. Full, little imagination

Lovely pub. On our way to Southampton for Cruise. Nice lunch. Friendly staff. Be mindful of parking, always tell staff your car details

Great pub with a great selection of beers. Fantastic place to sit for a good few hours and chill, inside or outside. Staff couldn’t be more helpful

Lovely family friendly pub. Great food and Great staff

Lovely local pub to us. Come here often. Great atmosphere, as is the food and service. James is great behind the bar too, nothing is too much trouble!

Its by far the best pub/restaurant in this part of Southampton. Our group of three were squeezed in on a Sunday lunchtime without reservation. We may have been lucky that day, but it was all very efficient and the food was good too.

Disgusting time wait. One of the meals was brought out very soon after ordering Had to ask for our other food three times. Nearly a 50min wait.

Awesome pub nice food good atmosphere highly recommended 👌

Great place, atmosphere, clean, great location if you want a refreshment/lunch after a walk round the common.

Absolutely gorgeous food! Great atmosphere. Love love love. Makes it so nice when your struggling with poorly children in the local hospital. Be proud of yourselves!!!

Just a steak and chips, But very nice, Good and simple. Tender and tasty.

Had a lovely 50th birthday meal for one of my friends, there was over 20 of us and the service and food was amazing 👏

Just went for a few drinks with a few friends. Quick service, friendly staff.

Great smile and warm welcome!!!

I have been there a few times for dinner and also for coffee. I am not impressed with with either food or drinks and it's unlikely that I would visit again. The atmosphere indoors is nice.

Good food, friendly helpful staff- definitely recommend 🙂

Young girl served us needs a chance to go further, very pleasant and attentive. Give her a chance.

Had a lovely time here with our daughter and granddaughter. But sadly it has been tainted by receiving a parking ticket, parking company have been absolutely awful to deal with! I would be careful when attending!

Yet another family gathering at the Bellmoor. Staff very friendly and service at the bar was good. Food came quickly, hot and fresh, albeit not overly generous portions. Lasagna was served with a chunk of dry bread, but lasagna was pretty dry, so no dunking for a little moisture. My final purchase was 1/2 pint of lemonade. It cost £3.70! Generally nice, but not great value. We'll look elsewhere for better value.

A good pub for food but it feels very disjointed as the bar area always seems full of people watching sports and the food seating area doesn't have much seperation. We've also been here for Christmas but the place was so packed in with tables that we spent half our time moving chairs for people to move past our table. I assume this is to maximise covers but it meant you couldn't enjoy your meal properly. We do go back here for food but wouldn't do any special occasions here.

Portion size is very small for the cost, just over priced.

Food is great, bar staff are helpful and friendly; and although they do ticket people who use their car park without entering their reg at the bar, they are also very understanding and helpful for those patrons who forget to and get a fine in the post, me!

Fish was overcooked mushy peas cold and waited ages to be served .The other meals were ok but disappointed as I had recommended the pub

Food would be 4.5 rating because it was tasty but a small bit smaller than expected. The place is great, and I could try local british cuisine in a good environment. It was tasty and fries were crispy. Desert was also very nice, nice chocolate and good balance with the icecream:3

Very nice pub, great decor and in a really nice location directly opposite Southampton common

Nice place to meet with friends; has a family feel and isn't "rough".

Not even a handful of crisps on an £8 sandwich and almost £5 for an Orange Juice? Minus that the sandwich was bloody tasty and staff were friendly. Just felt the prices were a little mad for a Green King Pub - not that I was expecting Wetherspoons prices, but come on!

Friendly atmosphere and nice pub but very frustrating that the majority of tables are reserved every time we go so you either can’t sit anywhere or have to clock watch in anticipation for the booking to arrive and make you table-less and start the process all over again, whilst competing with everyone else who also can’t find a table. It makes dropping in for a spontaneous drink very unappealing. Over than that it’s a nice pub.

Excellent service and food. Good prices. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit

First visit (having driven past regularly) with a two burgers and two drinks Groupon. Booked and the table we were given was a bit on the walkthrough so we asked for another and they happily gave us a much more private one in the corner. The cider included was Aspalls which was great and the house red wine was pretty good too. We both went for the Signature burgers which were very tasty and came with excellent chips and onions rings. Our waiter was friendly and helpful, quickly bringing water and more BBQ sauce when asked. We will definitely return now we know this is our closest Greene King pub, just within walking distance!

Was very good service enjoyed the food kids loved it thankyou

Just a lovely pub - had a lovely steak meal and pud

They are so kind and the price is reasonable.

Be careful. You will have to pay to park one way or another.

Since the refurbishment the quality of food and vfm has improved considerably. The menu is varied with plenty of choice. Personally I would avoid quiz nights. They drawn out and dominate the atmosphere.

We went for a mid week lunch with friends and were very impressed with the service we received and the meals were very tasty. We ordered from the "Seniors" menu which was perfect for us. We will definitely come again.

Very nice pub nice and friendly with good food

As a traveller I was able to connect to power socket for laptop work. Food was very reasonably priced, staff were attentive, engaging, & polite. Atmosphere was warm and place was well kept. I would happily return. My only advice would be to place the cost of drinks within the drinks menu. The wine section had prices and the cocktail section had prices, but pretty much all else was left to guess. Not very normal. Apparently drink prices could be seen using the app.

Been going to the Bellemoor on a Tuesday for the quiz for years now and the recent refurb has done wonders for it! The pub was always lovely and friendly with good food but has now gone up a notch and the staff are all extremely friendly and happy to help!

Great food on Sunday with the usual friendly staff smiling through an exceptionally busy day. Fun quiz with Georgie - the hostess with the mostest.
