Chalkhill Blue in Test Valley

Amazing place, friendly and gave us time to enjoy our Christmas Dinner .. we had 2 disabled and the staff and bosses were very kind and very helpful... Will be going back as food was fantastic and very friendly to us..

Very good food and very good, friendly and efficient service!

Value for money, staff friendly and professional, super quick service and on-site managers went above and beyond to safely store and then return my phone that I accidently left on the chair

Very accommodating and friendly staff. We visited with elderly/disabled parents and staff couldn't do enough for us. Fabulous food, would highly recommend.

Great experience, the service was fantastic, staff were very friendly and our meals came out on time. I would definitely recommend you,

Lydia was fantastic even though she was so busy

We had a fantastic meal at The Chalkhill Blue in Andover! Huge thanks to Daniel & Tracy for their warm hospitality — they made us feel truly welcome from the moment we walked in. The sausage & mash was hearty and full of flavour, and the fish & chips were perfectly cooked — crispy batter, flaky fish, and piping hot. We finished with some delicious ice cream, the perfect end to a lovely meal. The service was spot on — friendly, attentive, and relaxed. It’s a lovely, welcoming pub with a great atmosphere and genuine care for their customers. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely be back!

Overall 100% food, service, atmosphere.

Food was great & Service was spot on. Would definitely be visiting again. 5 stars all the way

Another lovely meal here with family. The food was good, not rushed and the staff were lovely.

Nice atmosphere - went for the quiz and it was great fun!

Small fish and chips for £5.90. Always fresh, and always cooked perfectly. For a small portion, it's a good size.

3rd visit in the past 6 months. Had the same server called LYDIA. A pleasant, cheerful, welcoming young lady, who in this day and age is a credit too the Company. I hope this is recognised?

Great place to meet and eat. Much better than it's location would suggest

Absolutely beautiful pub. We went for a spare of the moment meal, and it didn’t disappoint at all. Beautiful setting, beautiful outside space, beautiful food. The staff were all lovely and very helpful. Would recommend 10/10

Good food, good price, good service, good experience

The roast dinner was very disappointing

Really great food and amazing service from Lydia! Thank you ☺️

We booked for a family lunch (party of 5, 1 with limited mobility). Very easy to book a table, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was great. A good place to share time together.

First time I eaten there had the lamb shank my wife had the ribeye cook well no complaints staff very good will return

Very friendly staff , great service, even better food and value for money in a lovely setting

Absolutely lovely place to visit, lovely food and friendly staff.

We visited recently for an evening meal, service from staff can’t be faulted, friendly and attentive. I ordered the double burger and chips, it arrived with sliced packet cheese and two burgers that were tasteless and greasy! There was no burger relish or onion and I struggled to eat it! To me it looked like the food had been thrown on the plate. My husband said his meal was ‘ok’ We have visited before and feel the food is hit and miss! The area that we sat in needs a facelift, the seats were stained and dirty looking. Staff are friendly but looked scruffy. Sadly this is our last visit here.

Excellent service, tasty food, would definitely come back if in the area again!

It's a lovely place to eat or have a drink. Staff were great, food was great. It was a beautiful evening.

Very clean and good decor. Friendly and efficient. Good choice of food and drink. Very nice food.

Poor quality food obviously out of the freezer. Overcooked veggies. White bread from the 1960s. Steak pie with soggy pastry - all pre cooked frozen. We won't be coming back!

Stopped for a quick electric charge for car (on way back from Dorset) and popped into The Chalkhill Blue. Nothing was too much for them, and the atmosphere was great! Happy families, couples, singles, children skipping in…etc Have charged and eaten there once before - this time just got chips (which were carefully wrapped in foil so we could eat in the car - due to the dog) - although she’d have been welcome to go in. Staff amazing- especially lady on the door- music uplifting- decor welcoming. Highly recommend ❤️

Accommodating, polite staff, REALLY good food. Nice open space inside and pleasant outdoor space.

Had the sea bass earlier. I'm now doubled over in pain. Not sure whether it was off or not cooked properly. Sorry but I would never visit this establishment again. Completely ruined my easter holiday.

A family meal with my son's, husband and parents for my dad's 75th. I asked for the table to be decorated and it was, a real surprise. The service was great, we had a lovely time and lots of choice on the menu. The only negatives and I am being picky, is that there was no camembert and my chicken and chorizo skewer had hardly any chicken or chorizo was a real shame

Food was amazing. Well presented, tasty and hot. Young lady who served us (sorry didn't get your name, you have dark hair with green in it, I complimented you as it was lovely) was very attentive, polite and pleasure to talk to. Only negative was the ladies toilets smelt very bad, not sure if there is a plumbing issue there

Went today for dinner after finishing work early portion sizes are very good as is the food well worth the money and will be back again all staff were very friendly and helpful

We had a meal for 5. The sea bass was cooked to perfection. The fish and chips were the best chips ever and the steak a dream. Thank you so much for an amazing experience ❤️

Went today for Sunday dinner portions sizes were very good service was very quick and friendly.

Our meals were perfect, nice & hot, our servers were very professional & helpful. Lovely place for a quiet meal, the decor is calming & it was very clean.

Lovely experience today. Our server Tracy went above and beyond. Food was amazing. I even messed up on my order and they rectified it even though it was my fault. 5 stars 🌟

This is a great value for money eatery but it can be hit and miss which is why I give it an honest 3 stars. Some days it's great, other days disappointing. Which is a shame. It is looking a bit dated now and things such as outside benches and seating inside do need updating. It just needs that little extra attention to detail and it would be a hit every time.

Amazing food and really friendly service. Tracy, Dan and Lydia are always great! We come every week for food and the quiz and never disappointed!

I love coming to chalkhill blue. The new food menu is brilliant & food is unbelievably delicious. So comfortable there & the staff are super friendly and very welcoming. I absolutely love coming here every week for the quiz and coming for brilliant food with friends is always a good way to spend time with people.

We have been to the Chalkhill Blue every Wednesday night for the last 2 years and have never been disappointed! Food is great, staff are friendly and the quiz every Wednesday is always a hit! Definitely a place to go if you’re in the area!

We booked short noticed (within 15 minutes) when we turned up it was very busy, but we was still seen quickly, very friendly staff. They was short staffed, run of there feet but still smiling and very quick food service, it was very nice food would come again

The food was enjoyable, good portion sizes for the price. The menu has changed since our last visit, less vegan options which was disappointing. There were some lights not working or flickering over the table we were seated at.

As always, very friendly and helpful staff serving tasty and great value food.

Lydia was excellent and looked after us very well. Thank you Lydia.

Really nice and clean . Good staff, nice menu which does change at times so does not become boring. If their might be a problem it is sorted courteously.

The breakfast was fantastic! The chef went over and above to put in a brilliant spread but what really was very much appreciated is that the team opened early for us and provide breakfast which isn’t something they normally do! So thank you to an awesome team and for catering for our AGM. You guys rock!

Very tasty food even for fussy eaters!!

Lovely food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff,reasonable prices. Will definitely be returning when we next visit Andover.

We love coming to Chalkhill Blue in Andover. It is always lovely and clean. The staff are so lovely. They work extremely hard as it is always busy but nothing Is ever to much trouble. The food always arrives on time and is always excellent. A big 'Thank you" to all the staff.

Lydia was very attentive and professional

Lydia was very polite, professional and friendly - thank you

Tracy was lovely very attentive, food was amazing great quality, the quiz was good fun very good questions. Will be back.

Had a great lunch here with fast service and friendly staff

Excellent steaks and a Biscoff Salted Caramel Sundae that will blow your little cotton sockies off. A little quiet in terms of atmosphere - but trust me - THAT is a good thing and a rarity. Great staff on hand too.

It was a busy day as it was mothers day but the staff and food was amazing. We had no delays and the food was lovely and hot.

Went there tonight the staff and management was fantastic would recommend any day x

Absolutely loved our service and food and can't wait to come back again l. We hsvevbeen going to chalkhill blue since they opened and never had a unpleasant experience with staff and our food.

The food was awful I couldn't eat it, I expected more for the price that they charge. We were a party of 5 and no one was 100% happy with the food. We had a code for 30% off which was valid but they said we couldn't use it, so not only was the food really bad i had to pay full price. The service wasn't great no one smiled and wasn't actually clear who the workers were. It was a awful experience I will never go back.

My first ever visit here and I found it a pleasant experience. I like the way it’s tucked away and feels quite secluded, even though it is close to so many busy roads. The staff were friendly and helpful. Service was slow, but then they were super busy, as it was the Saturday before Mother’s Day. We were aware we were going to have to be patient. The staff were busy serving and taking orders the whole time we were there. The food went down well, but portion sizes, like most eateries are down and we understand it’s about businesses surviving, plus rising bills, so that was understood. Food was hot and cooked well. Puddings were delicious. A lovely family gathering to be fair and a welcoming atmosphere.

Cannot thank Daniel and Tracey enough for their amazing hospitality. A couple of weeks ago they went above and beyond to ensure our 50 guests were incredibly well looked after at our daughter's christening. The food was perfect and the service was equally top class. Highly recommended!

Very friendly,fast service ,good choice on menu .Highly recommend

Lydia was incredibly attentive and helpful, managing a large table with ease

We had a very enjoyable lunch with my elderly parents. A party of four we were able to get a table as a walk in. With limited mobility Elaine was mindful of this. The food was to a very good standard delivers in a reasonable timeframe and was fairly priced. Elaine and her colleagues delivered a very good level of service and we would certainly return.

Tracey is absolutely amazing! Went above and beyond!

Visited late lunchtime when it was quiet. Food was delicious and service good without being excessive.

Absolutely brilliant! They went above and beyond to cater for my daughter’s allergies. Very grateful

Chalkhill blue staff was attentive and welcoming during my experience.

Lydia went above and beyond helping me surprise my mum for her birthday, 9 of us and the food and service was amazing. Thanks guys.

Staff are always very friendly and helpful, hence 3stars. But... I chose the chicken and chorizo flatbread. Poor value, 3 small pieces of chicken on 1 skewer, i don't even remember eating any chorizo. Basically a load of carbs.. flatbread and fries, plus some salad for 15.95. Even with 30% off it felt overpriced. Disappointing

Tracey is amazing along with the male manager! If you want a decent meal in a lovely place, I highly recommend coming here!

Lovely evening with friends. Great service. Food was good. Would visit again.

We had sea bass and the lamb. Food was excellent. We were served by Lydia who was cheerful and helpful.

This place tends over backwards ti accommodate your requests.christine served us today very polite, customer service spot on again another good evening for a family event

Brilliant service amazing food msg kids loved the play area

The food was delicious. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was so relaxed. A really lovely place to come. The play area had my daughter entertained.

We had very nice mid-week meals here. The atmosphere was nice, not too busy, but not quiet or stale and the setting was all very nice, clean and tables available. We had the whitebait and sticky chicken starters, with a scampi and pie and mash for main. We were served by Lydia, who was confident, polite, knowledgeable and very attentive. She was very helpful, making our choices and decisions easy. The food was all very nice, less the mash potato, which looked like it had been sitting a while in a pot or under a heat lamp, but I was hungry and couldn't be bothered with sending it back and waiting for another meal, and my colleague was already eating too. It was a very nice visit and I'd certainly go again.

we had Tracey serving us and she was lovely, very friendly answered all the questions and all round made it a nice atmosphere.

Friendly, good value for money. Food was great and our waitress Lydia couldn’t of been more attentive

Our server was Lydia she was very polite and professional.

Excellent food and Christine looked after us very well, she is a credit to your team

Tracy was very good at her job very friendly and helpful

Overall a fairly nice place to eat and the food is nice however; the standard of the staff is disappointing. From poor personal hygiene to lack of female professional dress code and dirty kitchen cloths to bring out food. some food not available either. That said the customer service was spot on, helpful and friendly 👌

Entered and it took a while to be greeted. Table was good, took ages to be offered drinks. Food also took a while. Sticky chicken recipe seems to have changed which was disappointing. Issues with the card machine when paying. Ordered an espresso which took ages to arrive and was so cool the sugar didn't dissolve. Staff were warm and friendly and very good.

Unfortunately our glasses were extremely cloudy. Either new glasses are required or salt in the the dishwasher. Food was really good, however took over 2 hours to clear out mains and order dessert. Being heavily pregnant, I was definitely getting uncomfortable. I asked for the dessert to be taken away (as we ordered off the 3 course meal and fed up of sitting) but could only offer it to be in tin foil which was fine, we'd just not have the ice cream. I immediately asked to pay but to my disappointment the dessert came on a plate and not takeaway as I'd requested. A real shame as the food was lovely.

Amazing meal with my family. Highly recommend. Food was great, staff were all really friendly and attentive, lovely relaxed atmosphere, we will definitely be back!

Only ever had a friendly welcome and service with value for money food and drink.

Lydia was lovely as always. We absolutely loved the Hunters Chicken! Very hot all the way to the end! We enjoyed our evening thank you ☺️

Christine served me and was really helpful. It was the best fish and chips I have had for a long time.

Fabulous food, great service from our server Tracy. One of favourite eateries in Andover.

Always good food at reasonable prices.

Great food and atmosphere. Amazing service

Had a very enjoyable lunchtime, thank you.

The chalkhill blue was great as always tonight, especially the service... Lydia was a fantastic hostess, she ensured we got everything we asked for, even though one of our group was especially picky... Lydia made sure everything was sorted, service with a smile as always

We stopped in for something to eat after a day out in Andover while visiting from Wales. Tracey welcomed us in and as a family of five we were seated comfortably. There was a great selection of drinks at the bar and I was served a perfect pint of cold Estrella. There was a varied menu, but the staff made some personal amendments in line with our tastes. The food delivered was great and the portions were generous. The five of us left satisfied and I would recommend the chalk hill blue to anyone, we had a great meal in a great pub Thanks very much to all in the pub who made our visit a great one 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Great food Great atmosphere Great pub

The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and checked regularly to make sure we were happy with everything. They even brought water and treats for our 2 dogs.

What an absolute triumphant meal me and my compadre had. He wept with joy as the taste sensation hit his pallet.

It was incredible. Went with my 9 year old boy. We went for a nice meal out. Honestly they were amazing. Not only the service but the way they treated my little boy. They are very family friendly and incredibly welcoming. Honestly a hidden gem in Andover. Never been here before today but certainly won’t be a stranger after this visit
