Framptons in New Forest

Great value and delicious food. All the staff were really lovely and helpful too.

Happy with the drinks. Very good service.

We had a wed lunch burger meal deal with a glass of drink £12 each the best burger I have tasted and lovely tasty fries.

Fantastic food and superb ambiance !

Absolutely superb Sunday roast, it must be one of the best in the area (probably the best)

We stop by regularly, the service is always good, friendly and attentive. The food is your typical pub grub with some great pizzas. Good drink selection, although could do with a few more real beers. Highly recommended!!

I pre-booked a table for a sunday lunch, when I arrived I was greeted and taken to my table. I already had in mind what I planned to order a roast beef dinner, and told the waitress immediately. Looking around the room still had a few traces of the old shop that it used to be many years ago which was nice. When my dinner arrived the plate consisted of a large Yorkshire pudding, a slice of roast parsnip, a slice of roast carrot all lying over 3 roast potatoes with a spoon of cabbage and 3 slices of beef. All of which was cooked perfectly. As I still felt a little bit hungry I ordered a sticky toffee pudding, which was nice. When I received the bill, I noticed that a service charge had been already added which annoyed me as I would far rather be asked if I woukd like to give a gratuity, I would have probably given more than the 4%. If they feel that they need the 4% just add ut into the initial price. All in all though a good but not great experience.

Booked the upstairs room for a leaving party. Good communication through the process. On the night the room was set up as I had asked. Delicious pizzas started to arrive at the stated time. At 8.30 when the dj downstairs started we had Framptons iPad and could then select our own music from Spotify which was great fun. Big shout out to Lee our barman for the night. He was the greatest, friendly, fun and nothing was too much trouble. I have no idea how many times he went up and down the stairs!

We hired the upstairs function room for a birthday party, Framptons internet went off-line meaning that we were unable to play our music for most of the evening. So a party without music - not great. The cost of the room hire with the barman was £300. Barman and manager were aware of the issues. I personally went in and spoke to Dan the manager to discuss our complaint and a phone call was promised to my son to discuss. Dan didn't phone so an email was sent and we are being COMPLETLY IGNORED. Avoid this company if you want any level of service.

Bargain and delicious food mid week

Oh dear, not the Framptons of a few years ago, especially in the food department. It’s a shame when great places go downhill …

Months ago I reported to your manager that you are flying the union flag upside down. On my return visit on Friday it is still disrespectfully inverted. You wouldn't do it to a US flag! Stop doing it to yours!

Nice bar to meet in Ringwood for drinks

We had an office celebration dinner last night. Nice surprise to have mid-week specials on classic burgers and pizzas! The food was all good, and friendly efficient service. Oddly we also had a dog barking a few times which got irritating at one point. However, really nice atmosphere as we were sat around the corner and not near the bar area. Would recommend.

This was my first time at Framptons and unfortunately I wont be returning. The menu is very limited - no starters and only pizza, burger, fish and chips and salad. I struggled to choose and reluctantly ordered the Korean burger. When the burger arrived, between some lettuce was a plain battered chicken breast with no sauce. The batter had what looked like soy sauce on it, just in the middle which had soaked in and had no flavour. The batter itself was greasy. I questioned the lack of sauce and the splash of something on the batter but the waiter couldnt offer any explanation. I was told that it was definitely the Korean burger and a few people have commented on it's lack of flavour. I have felt ill ever since. Really disappointing.

Busy vibrating bar 🍻 with great cocktails 🍸. Dj later in evening .

The whole experience was completely faultless. We booked for the bottomless brunch for a birthday celebration and simply could not be more impressed. The service was exemplary, the food wonderfully tasty and filling and as for the cocktails - WOW!!! Great value at £35 per head with the staff making sure we were kept topped up with drinks and so friendly and helpful. Cannot recommend highly enough

This was our first visit to Framptons to eat although we we have been in for drinks and coffees many times. We chose pizza as there is a great Friday deal and we have not had pizza for some time. The pizzas are large with good topping so great value. Staff are very good and the only downside is the lack of real ales or even good craft beers so not a place to go for a beer any longer.

lovely coffee house/restaurant in the heart of Ringwood. Fabulous and attentive staff, really nicely prepared and presented food, (try the english breakfast), good range of veggy/vegan options. Lovely ambience and a genuinely nice place to meet with friends or for a business lunch. Highly recommended.

Disappointed with our experience here for brunch. Coffees came out cold and the food was way below average for the price. Each of us had a different dish and none of it felt like it was freshly cooked but instead reheated to a warm (not hot) temperature, the bacon was burnt (not crispy but burnt), the ‘avocado ’ and ‘sun dried tomatoes’ with the poached eggs were not fresh and the avocado tasted like processed guacamole. It was also not reassuring to see the chef scrolling on his phone in the kitchen whilst preparing our breakfast, somewhat unsanitary. Sadly overall a disappointing experience and wouldn’t recommend for breakfast.

Me and my wife really love this place. We go for breakfast haven’t been close any other time as we aren’t really local. One of the few places where you actually get a hot breakfast really recommend!

A great place to eat, drink in the heart of Ringwood. Framptons has everything you need for a great time, whether you are with your family, friends, or colleagues. The staff at Framptons New Forest are always friendly and attentive. They will make you feel welcome and take care of your every need. My dog Mabel was also welcomed and had some dog treats. The food at Framptons is delicious and varied. You can choose from a range of dishes, from salads and sandwiches to burgers and steaks. But the star of the show is their pizza, which is made in their own pizza oven. Their pizza is so good! You can't beat a Framptons pizza. You can enjoy a selection of beers, wines, and spirits, or try one of their cocktails. Their cocktails are made with fresh ingredients and expert skill. They are so good, you will want to drink them all! Framptons also has a great meeting space upstairs, where you can host your events and parties. I've used this for a number of business meetings. You can also order food and drinks from the downstairs menu. The space is perfect for any occasion. Framptons is a place for everyone. It caters for all ages and tastes, and has a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. You will always have a good time at Framptons. Keep up the good work guys!

Brilliant place, lovely staff and good food! Would highly recommend!

Had a late staff Xmas party. Had room to ourselves upstairs n waiter, Lee, was very hospitable n joined in the party games. If you're wanting a venue where the staff aren't in your face, framptons is the place to be

Love this place, new years eve was a great atmosphere, lovely staff and friendly clients.

Wow , myself and my wife went for breakfast at Framptons this morning and we are glad we chose to go there. I had a full plate & my wife had the light plate . It was so lovely and the nice with Frampton they let me change my mushrooms & tomatoes and swap it for 2 extra eggs , that made it for me . Amanda and chloe were so polite and friendly. Also we'll done to the chefs that cooked our breakfast. We will definitely be back and recommend to ours friends. 👌👌👏👏

Visited for breakfast and had good service and food. Only complaint is I ordered the pancakes without bacon but could oddly taste the bacon still whilst eating. I’m not a vegetarian so was ok with this but not a good idea to do.

DECEMBER 2023 UPDATE - THIS REVIEW WAS FOR THEIR NOW CLOSED BATH RESTAURANT. We enjoyed lunch at Framptons - Steak and Cheese sandwich with coffee, would recommend! Loved the unusual urinals in the toilets, too!

Nice atmosphere good service busy asked for normal pizza as I am not vegan but pizza was vegan and cheese was like plastic with no taste agg no

Very busy. abit of a strange one to be honest people having meals in the back and techno being played in bar area 🎶.. very rude staff and the bouncers, yes bouncers, thinking they rule dorset bad attitudes won't be returning EVER

We had a wonderful family and friends meal. Food was great and the staff were wonderful

Had lovely lunch with mother. Pork bites were delicious, huge portion. Very welcomed by staff Amanda was exceptionally good, her cocktails were very yummy Will be going back with girlfriends soon

Dropped in for the full plate breakfast. I certainly wasn’t disappointed. First class ingredients, beautifully cooked and presented. I will be back to try again.

Good food, lovely staff, nice atmosphere

The staff was very professional and friendly, ambiance was really good. The food was average but not bad for sure. We will come here again :)

Excellent location for a Christmas do - relaxed and stylish. Great vibe, friendly waiters - attentive and chatty - serving delicious food. Chocolate brownie with ice cream was a favourite!

Fantastic Christmas Party in the Function Room for Charity Christmas Team gathering. Huge thanks to the Framptons team for a wonderful evening, attentive bar staff, nothing too much trouble (thanks Dan) and servers (Chloe and Lee). Food was outstanding. Menu was interesting and catered for all dietary requirements. Cannot recommend more highly - everyone had a great evening.

Called in ' on a whim ' fantastic bar and restaurant. Very lively night but, all the staff were outstanding, food was first rate. If its a quiet night you can spend an hour browsing the quirky decor, would highly recommend calling in. I will be back next time I am in the area.

The food was good and staff freindly, nice place. There is a but, £50 for 2 cheese burgers with fries and a couple of beers is just too much in my opinion.

Menu was not very exciting, staff were friendly and helpful nice atmosphere

Fantastic service and incredible food! I visited with some friends for bottomless brunch. The staff were all so helpful. We will definitely be back!!

Booked the use of Framptons function room for an engagement party as we loved the locality and rustic charm it offered. Our barman/host for the evening was Lee and he went above and beyond to help us on the night. Super nice man and very efficient. All the food was great and a fantastic evening was had by all ❤️

Great place to go for a breakfast, plus dog friendly too.

The service was great, however the Korean chicken burger was incredibly watery and didn't taste of much, just fried chicken with a teeny bit of a spicy sauce, which was a shame, it looked delicious when it arrived.

Recently moved to the area and met a friend for lunch. Wasn’t sure where to go but to be honest there weren’t many options on a Sunday so we ended up in this lovely bar/restaurant…. although they had sold out of roasts at this time (the roasts looked bloody amazing by the way and will be coming back!) we were very impressed with the pizza and sides we ordered. The lady that served us Sophie was so pleasant, friendly and accommodating and it certainly added to the lovely experience we had. Will be back for sure x

Took my father for Sunday roast. We had a beef and chicken. I have to say they were first class. The food was absolutely delicious, plentiful, hot and presented impeccably. The service team were polite attentive and professional. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had a really great visit. From opening the door and confirming the dog was welcome, the table service and attitude of the staff was 5 star. Dan, Josh and Amanda were so friendly and helpful. The food was really good quality and great atmosphere. Recommend the club sandwich if you’re hungry and vegetarian food my buddy had was awesome.

Ordered peach rocket and caramelised pecan salad. What I got….. soggy lettuce and watercress with burnt walnuts! The peach was there to be fair! Would rather have been told half of the salad was out of stock so I could order an alternative. If I did this in my business, I’d be had by trading standards. Staff were very pleasant however. Don’t think I’ll be returning any time soon.

Had Sunday lunch last weekend. And completely blown away. I had the beef roast with Cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets sides. Hands down best roast ever. Can’t recommend enough. Staff and atmosphere were perfect. But the food every bit on the plate had a lot of care and detail. Best roast ever.

We were in Ringwood for a lecture that started at 2:00 pm, so I tried to find a refined, pleasant lunch for noon. The Framptons New Forest website led me to believe that this was that type of place. Nothing was further from the truth. It was a grotty old pub with a, shall we say, less than refined clientele. Although Framptons took a reservation from me, when I got there they said they didn't serve lunch until 13:00, even though the online menu did not state that. Since the chef was in, he agreed to make me a salad (which was very nice, as salads go). But what I had hoped would be a lovely day out for us was a complete disappointment. Thank goodness the lecture was great, because the restaurant was not.

We had our wedding brunch at framptons and it was perfect. Josh was really helpful and made the process of arrangments so easy for us. The food was excellent and all our guests felt so comfortable and relaxed. Thank you all for the fantastic service. the brunch went so smoothly, It was just what we wanted for our wedding day!

Great little bistro/wine bar/lunch place

Great bar in little Ringwood, since the new owners have taken over you can tell the difference. The food is great, service standards are high and it’s a great atmosphere.

The best breakfast you'll probably ever get, even better than home. The quality is always 10/10. The staff are always very happy and friendly. Thanks Josh, Sophie and Beth.

Visited for the 1st time yesterday, we stay in the new forest multiple times a year and will definitely be back. We went for a Sunday roast, the staff was very friendly and helpful. Me and my wife have had roasts in some top restaurants over the years and this was right up there as 1 of the best! The meat was juicy, potatoes crispy, and everything else tasty (you even get pigs in blankets). On top of this our daughter eat free. Great place and we will be back

Josh and Millie were great - brilliant service and delivered and tasty breakfast and delicious coffee!

Came with a group and was welcomed by the staff, service was great throughout with continuous consideration for our experience. Food was well presented and tasted great with consideration to allergens or alternative requests.

Nice place to shelter from the rain.

Had to write another review from one of my many trips to framptons. Came for brunch with my friend. Friendly staff as always. I had The One, it was delicious. Highly recommend. I will of course will be returning and recommend this place to everyone.

I had the pleasure of being the Coach driver for Framptons yesterday for their day out to Salisbury Races. The Manager Sophie was extremely friendly and helpful and exactly as a good manager should be, making sure her customers had a great time (after 10 years as a bar manager, this is sadly a rarity!). The customers attending the races were also a delight, so friendly and polite and making me wish I lived nearer to Ringwood to visit Framptons. There was a spare ticket to the races due to a no-show, so I was invited in with them and, upon dropping them back to Ringwood, I was invited inside the bar. The set up is lovely and definitely worth a visit, I was sad to only be able to have a quick pitstop. I was able to sample their delicious pizza too as they insisted I take a slice for my return journey. I'd definitely recommend visiting to anyone wanting some lovely food in a bar with a great atmosphere and friendly staff and locals. Thanks for a great day! Emily (Mortons Travel)

We stopped in for a bite to eat and a drink, the staff were friendly and the place was clean. The food was good, and the cocktails were great. The only downside was another customers dog kept barking, which became annoying.

Absolutely fantastic service from Jamie, amazing food and such a lovely evening with friends. Thank you!

Thank you to the chef for the fantastic tapas, really appreciated you accommodating my son who has coeliac disease and excellent wine choice from Katherine. Such a lovely evening. Thank you Framptons - we will be back!

Amazing service, staff were so friendly and helpful. The food came out quickly and tasted delicious. Will recommend to everyone and will definitely be coming back!!

This is the best pizza I have tasted. Rivals Naples if not surpasses it!!! Go to this place, it’s vibe is great and the pizza is amazing with generous, inventive as well as the great originals Staff are all fantastic. Thank you so much.

Went there for breakfast on recommendation of a friend. My wife loved the pancakes and service was fast and friendly. Coffee could be better, mine was basically just frothy milk with no flavour.....

Food was lovely as well as an unexpected happy hour for cocktails 🍸

Great deal on very well topped pizzas. Very helpful and friendly staff especially Sophie who was so charming and efficient.

Lovely food and atmosphere. Lee was fab, he sorted us out with a table for food during a very busy Friday evening. Very friendly staff, will be returning!

Lovely place to stop for coffee and cake or just a drink

Excellent food and a professional service particularly from Josh. Would recommend. Great to see food being individually prepared in the open kitchen, fresh ingredients make the difference. Will be back when again in the area.

Loved the decor of this place, highly original. Very friendly and professional staff. Great coffee and seating areas.

Our company had a last minute venue change due to bad weather and contacted Framptons New Forest to see whether they were able to help and thankfully they were. All we can say is a big thank you, every member of staff went above and...

Thank you so much Framptons! We had the best night celebrating Nick's 50th Birthday last night! Jamie was fabulous behind the bar and Sophie looked after us so well. Thank you to Dan, the manager for brilliant organisation throughout the whole process. So many of...

Had a great lunch at Framptons while driving through Ringwood. The service was great and we lived the cozy ambiance & food!

Great place to sit and people watch, situated on the Hugh Street, good attentive staff will defo go back

Lovely service, great atmosphere and food.

Nice food and drinks. Service was excellent. Friday was DJ night, the place turns into a dance venue after 9pm.

Had awesome service from Josh, Lydia and Katherine not to mention the bolognaise pizza was divine, beautiful decor, very warm and inviting. Definitely going again soon.

What can I say Had an amazing experience The staff were absolutely amazing Friendly & couldn’t do enough for the customer I’m half Italian & I highly recommend The stone over pizzas Absolutely amazing Highly recommended th

After recently moving to Ringwood, we have been into Framptons a few times and have loved everything about the place. Staff are so friendly & have made us feel really welcome to the town. We finished work late on Friday and decided to eat out....

We had lunch here fish finger sandwich and a pizza with a special cocktail of the day and a craft beer lovely lunch we'll presented and served friendly staff and reasonably priced would recommend

Would definitely return again! This was our second visit, last time was breakfast this time was brunch/lunch. The fish & chips were lovely, the best fish & chips I've had in a long time - my only bit of feedback; there was too much salt put on the outside of this fish when it was served! The egg on the breakfast bap was cooked perfectly and the sausages are delicious. The bap could probably do with some added cheese or something as it's quite dry!

Great place! Staff were very accommodating as the 5 of us arrived with no booking when already busy and they fit us in. The food was delicious, the service was brilliant, Josh, Lydia and Jim were all very friendly! Will certainly visit again!

Coffee ok the iced coffee was best just handy

cRedit to the kitchen for going the extra mile to accomodate allergies. Food was good, but th order got a bit mixed up so some of the items ended up on the wrong plates. (We ordered the Breakfasts with some additions)

Nice wine bar, just a little expensive compared to other.

Really friendly service. Great pizzas.

So many kind words I could write about Framptons. My partner and I were on holiday and it was our very first meal out. We had actually booked somewhere else in Ringwood but when we got there it was vile and we felt uncomfortable and disappointed and we wanted to leave. I rung Framptons last minute and they went above and beyond to find us a table at 7:30pm on a bank holiday weekend. Although we were at at the back of the restaurant, we still felt welcome, comfortable and we were not forgotten about once. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was fab, and Amanda was absolutely fantastic! She didn’t stop smiling! (She even managed to get me a cocktail made that wasn’t on the menu). The experience we had here was 10/10 and we said we would definitely return if we were in the area 😊

We really enjoyed our meal, the burgers and desserts were so delicious and kids eat free on a Wednesday so that was great. Its a really relaxed and stylish restaurant and its dog friendly which is what we needed as we were on holiday with...

I went to framptons tonight for dinner and drinks with friends and was so impressed with the service and the staff. The food was incredible!

Family and I stopped here to eat tonight. Not only was the food absolutely delicious and the interior very beautiful but the two ladies that served us absolutely outstanding service to us (even accommodating a special request for my daughter). I’ve been in the industry for nearly 20 years and these guys are the real deal! I wish all the very best and well done!

Came in for coffee and breakfast. Coffee arrived in due time but still no food after 45 minutes so enquired to waitress who informed that our order hadn't been pushed through so it would be another 15 mins wait, so left hungry. Coffee offered only when enquired. Disappointing experience and didn't feel valued as a customer.

Went bank holiday Sunday - Wow the food was amazing - especially the small plates!! Not sure how the chef got everything out to our taste - will definitely go back thank you 😊

On holiday. Had a bad experience elsewhere which involved leaving our drinks behind and not wanting to eat. Framptons fit us in last minute on a bank holiday Friday so couldn’t complain, I asked for a cocktail that was not on the menu and they...

Booked a group meal at Framptons on Saturday 20th May. We had the upstairs function room (thank goodness as it does get loud downstairs with the DJ!) Lee R was our host for the evening & I can't rate him highly enough. He was attentive,...

We had the loveliest evening being served by Amanda and Trina. Lovely food - couldn’t fault it. We had pizza and two flavours of wings, both of which were exceptional. Service was very quick despite lots of cocktails being ordered by us! Amanda and Trina...

Amazing for date night. Had the two for one pizza which was delicious. Had one of the specials drinks made by the bartender who was funny and inviting. Had a great time and it was such a good atmosphere. Will be returning! Jim and Trina...
