Booked here for lunch based on reviews left but although my Husbands Pie was good my steak was really tough. Did mention this to staff who apparently mentioned this to Chef. Nothing further said or done. Also husband asked for a pint of shandy and got a half even though he mentioned it twice to waiter (was charged for half) but again not the point really.

Service is very good, nice and attentive, they give you the option for service charge (now adding to the bill is very important to me). The atmosphere is great, you feel into a small old pub, food is ok. Creative, good presentation, should have come warmer though.

Went here for evening meal. Fantastic find, staff were great. First place ive found that does warm pork scratchings with apple sauce as a sharer. Between us we had Game Faggots (Rabbit, pheasent and veal) really nice, Dressed Crab, Sea Bass fillets, and a burger. Desserts were equally as good.

Managed to get Sunday lunch here today at extremely short notice for ourselves and friends we haven’t seen for nearly a year as it was for our friends birthday. So a massive thank you to the landlord for fitting us in. A great old traditional cosy pub a dieing think in these hard times and very lucky to have it on our doorstep. The food here is absolutely first class and came out from the kitchen piping hot and not just your normal run of the mill pub food. A fantastic selection on the menu for everyone and very well priced too. Plus very inventive staff always makes a meal so much better. Highly recommend this Gem a massive thank you from all of us.

We had a fabulous dinner here. We were in the area for business and were staying about a 10 minute walk away. We had starters and mains. The starters were good, although my husband would have liked a little salad with his pate and maybe a little less bread. My crispy duck salad was good, but I would have preferred no noodles and maybe a few more leaves. It was LARGE for a starter. For mains we had a delicious fish curry, which was spectular in every way. It came with a tremendous mango chutney. Drinks were good and promptly served with a smile. All the servers were a delight-very well trained. The landlord took our food orders and he gave good information about the dishes and also recommendations. A few reviewers have put negative remarks on TA about him, but we thought he was really friendly and helpful. The atmosphere in the pub was buzzing and the prices are more than reasonable.

A group of us went out for lunch, good menu choice and the food when it came was well presented and enjoyable. We spent £90 a couple which is enough for a pub lunch but we felt fair value. What took the shine off was the £52 service charge added on. We had already spent £450 so it seemed unnecessary.

We visited the Fisherman’s rest for Sunday lunch and were not disappointed. One of the best roasts we’ve had for a while and very reasonable. The side cauliflower cheese i can also recommend. Services was friendly and speedy, atmosphere good and we sat by open doors looking out on the small but well kept garden/terrace. We will be back when we next visit the area and can definitely recommend.

Ate here after talking to someone in our B&B and was told they served good fish and seafood dishes we decided to give it a try. We booked a table just to be sure and as it was a nice evening decided to eat outside. The food was excellent we had salmon gravlax to start with seabass dauphinoise potato in a bisque and I had the seafood special. Service was good, water was constantly replenished without asking The man who served us I believe is the owner has a bit of a nonchalant demeanor but dont let that put you off Would definitely recommend if you like fish and sea food, we came to the New Forest to try a couple of restaurants should just have eaten here more often and saved a shed load of money

The food was exceptional. All dishes were excellent. Fish cooked to perfection. Gorgeous baked crab. Great wine selection. Wine perfectly chilled. Lovely outside terrace and ambiance. Our experience was let down though by the service which was rather chaotic. We had four different people serving us, constantly hovering and asking if they could whisk each plate away when we hadn’t even finished. They all seemed stressed and annoyed. We were given a dinner booking at 6:30pm but were told we could not order until 7pm. We had to ask if we could at least order some bread. Different people kept coming out to ask us the same questions. The wine in wine bucket was plonked down but not poured. We had to ask for it to be poured (maybe they don’t normally pour, not sure). At the end of the meal I noticed they had forgotten to charge us for the wine. I had to go inside and wait for someone to come to the till. When I said they hadn’t charged me for the wine and they needed to add it to the bill, they didn’t say thank you for flagging it but just looked really annoyed and put out. Anyway, fabulous food and pub overall but the staff just need a bit better guidance!

So impressed with this place. Excellent food. My father and I had skate which was well presented and tasted nice. Venison chilli was devoured by my daughter (she's the fussy one) and hubby had BBQ ribs which he really enjoyed. Portion size was good and all dishes were presented well. The staff were friendly and on the ball. This was our first time of visiting despite being locals and definitely won't be our last. Very satisfied customers.

We were staying at nearby Passford House and told we must try this pub for food. So we arrived without making a reservation on a Thursday night which was a mistake. But luckily we were early and the publican/manager squeezed us in for an early meal with a one and half hour time slot which was fine and much appreciated - he could have just said no. Great atmosphere. Great menu. The seafood mariniere was very good (slight criticism - mussels a bit small but the sauce was excellent), similarly the crab bisque. This place is known for its seafood/fish so being contrary I had a venison chilli which was so good. It’s got limited parking so bear that in mind. This is a great pub, unpretentious and unstuffy, with great quality food. And the service from the young staff was excellent, If you are in the area this is well worth a visit,

I have been remiss in not writing a review before. All the food is great, and the local fish is a good option. However, the Steak and Ale Pie is my favourite. It is the best steak pie I've ever had - have it with mash and it's a meal on it's own.

We are locals and with local friends and thought a meal here suited the evening. It went okand knew the table time was up at 8.30 pm, we were not at that time yet when we were told in an fairly unpleasant way people were waiting so they want the table. There are ways to remind us time was running out although we knew anyway but this was harsh and demanding and we came out certainly not feeling valued as customers as we all thought staff were a little gruff throughout. A good tourist summer trade I presume so hope they don't need locals during the winter as we will not go there again.

Had Mediterranean fish stew. It was awful, like eating about 3 tiny bits of cod, one tiny mussel, and one one clam that you needed glasses to see. There was no salmon in it as was claimed by staff. Consistency was like water. Basically no taste at all apart from it tasting a little like watered down pilchard juice. The only good thing that I can say about this place was that the staff attended to your table in a timely manner. DISAPPOINTING!

Visited today for the Christmas menu. What a fantastic meal. Quite honestly the best and most perfectly cooked Xmas dinner I’ve had in many a year. The service was superb too and so friendly. Loved every moment.

We chose to stop here specifically as there was a rapid charger for our EV. The grounds are relaxing and quiet. The conservatory restaurant had a good atmosphere and the service friendly and courteous. We had the Gnocchi and Ploughmans for lunch. Both were very tasty and well presented. Puddings were light and refreshing. Prices are not cheap but good food is worth paying for. Having tried out the restaurant and general ambience we are very likely to arrange a weekend break here soon.

Moved to Lymington 8 months ago and the food was delicious. Past 3 times we've been food hasn't been worth the price.
