Hampshire Arms in Hart

Great pub in a lovely location. Recently under new management and they are starting food very soon.

Yet another treat yesterday at the Hampshire Arms. A midway lunch between Christmas and New Year was a welcome break after cooking over the holiday. This is a super village restaurant and pub/bar. A great location in beautiful Crondall village. When I come here it’s always an exciting and reliable menu and quality food in a beautiful calm and relaxing atmosphere. The staff, and one young lady in particular, are friendly and bend over backwards to make you feel at home. I have nothing but praise for this place.

Great Function room that leads onto the garden. Great food and good prices for drinks. My daughter enjoyed celebrating her birthday with friends and family.

One of two pubs in Crondall Village, with a local friendly feel. There's a good selection of local ales and plenty of space for group bookings. There is an under cover seating area at the back, and other picnic tables out in the open. The small beer garden has a homely feel to it.

A nice country pub with fair prices.

Very good food at reasonable prices , helpful and friendly staff. Attractive gardens Well worth a visit.

So glad we get to call this pub our local! Service always lovely, and food is top notch. Sunday roasts are to die for!

Lovely atmosphere dogs welcome good food at reasonable price.

Amazing special chicken burger this evening. Really nice. Thank you!!

Havnt been back to the village for over 10 years but I was born and grew up there. The lady serving us was amazing and the food was superb. Couldn't fault the service, food and warmth.

The atmosphere and food was incredible. The extra special treat was for us was the lovely lady (I wish I knew her name but I’ll describe as best I can; short brunette with glasses) she made our experience 10x better. I don’t eat pork and sometimes I feel embarrassed to make a fuss about it but she really put me at ease. I strongly recommend this pub it’s lovely we went on a Friday and Sunday evening (28/04/23 & 30/04/23). I regret not asked her for her name but let’s just she truly made my evenings awesome. All I’m all the service and food was incredible!

We visited this evening for dinner and all 4 of us were so impressed with the standard of food it was delicious! Service friendly and efficient. Will be back!

Family of 6 adults. Just moved to thr area first experience of Hampshire Arms. I had read the reviews which are extremely good however hoping I wouldn't be disappointed by the roast dinner! We have been to quite a few in different places but not found anywhere that cooks a roast as good as a home cooked one. UNTIL NOW. absolutely without a doubt the best roast I have ever had. We all agreed it was superb. Meat was either beef or pork. Both cooked to perfection. Crackling was delicious as well. Roast potatoes were crispy. Veg was perfect and not over cooked. The gravy was scrummy yummy. Honestly could recommend enough. The staff were friendly, quick but not over bearing. We will be back. Just deliscious.

Friday lunch after a dog walk, steak and ale pie followed by dessert, delicious. Excellent service, very friendly.

Had a great family Sunday lunch. Excellent food and good service on a busy Mothering Sunday.

I have heard over the years what exceptional food is served at the Hampshire Arms . Had Sunday lunch there yesterday with a few family members . THE BEST SUNDAY ROAST I have had the pleasure to taste . All fresh ingredients and home cooked. The chef is amazing every dish that came out of the kitchen was impeccable and the place was almost full of dinners . It was worth every penny and the staff attentive, but not intrusive. I will be back for more foodie delights .

Went for Lunch with a friend, on a Friday. Didn't have a table booked, and didn't like where we first sat (my friend was struggling getting comfortable having just had a new hip) . We were served by Ashlie and nothing was too much bother for her....she moved us to a different table. We both had 3 courses and the food was excellent. Service was excellent. Couldn't fault the place. Well worth a visit.

Excellent choice of food. A lovely country pub

Friendly staff quant pub in a lovely village. Service for food was quick and the food was lovely.

Great Sunday roast all so well cooked will be going back

Great food. Staff very cheerful. Didn't book but found us a table with no wait. Couldn't fault the place.

Excellent food and service. Highly recommended.

Love it here, such a lovely atmosphere xxx

We had a lovely drinks and dinner at this pub this evening. Food was very good but the guy behind the bar made the night, he was a great host and really made us feel welcome. We’ll definitely be back!

Another venue "popped into' on the way home from football - and as so often regret not being able to spend more time and sample the food menu - which is their prime trade I'd expect.Place seemed v busy out back (in the restaurant section) Beer selection was a tad average - is a Greene King franchise - Timothy Taylor - mate described this as 'grim' - I opted for Tribute which was fine but hardly 'local'.

We stumbled upon the pub after a house viewing (pleased to say we bought it) wanted to check out the area. Lovely friendly staff and people in the pub, food was lovely and I am GF which was well catered for. The outdoor space was pretty and well kept! Heard a rumour the fish finger sarnie was boring but my husband seemed to enjoy his 100% 😊

As it says in the title. We were staying up the road at the Plume of Feathers but the Hampshire Arms pub gave a better service.

Great pub with nice beer garden. The staff were very friendly! We tried the pizza it is was great. Would recommend!

Great local pub with a friendly team and good food/ drink 🍻

Food was ok, but the service was very poor and extremely slow. Not enough staff and draught soft drinks were pretty flat.

Good luck if you just want a drink and a hot bar snack. The place was empty and wouldn’t accept 2 adults…

Family and dog friendly. Warm welcome and food is great.

Probably the best roast lunch I’m have had in a long time. Delicious roast pork with fab veg - will be back! Excellent puddings too!

Traditional pub with good food.

After a long journey and feeling very tired we were recommended The Hampshire Arms for a evening meal. We walked in and received a genuinely friendly reception from the landlord. The food appeared to cater for all tastes and the meals were served in a timely manner. The food was excellent - my wife had Garlic Mushrooms followed by Steak and Ale Pie, I had calamari followed by steak. In every way this is a really good pub and well worth a visit. PS. The beer was excellent!

Super friendly staff and tasty food

It was amazing. The pub owner is lovely and wonderful told us a lot about the village and area. The chef is also very good as the food was wonderful, great portions and extremely tasty meals. If you go make sure to have the biscoff cheesecake its amazing and home made. Amelia

This was my first visit to The Hampshire Arms for many years and I was extremely impressed. The welcome and service from Hannah was superb. The food was delicious, and all three generations of my family loved it. We will definitely be going again soon!

I popped in for a drink, ended up staying for dinner—a lovely meal at a great price. Also, I got to meet the friendly locals from the village. Highly recommend stopping in.

Called us less than 2 hours before our booking to tell us they had run out of roast dinners, what a massive let down

We had a lovely roast, everything cooked to perfection.The staff are excellent, very friendly and helpful.Will definitely return.

Lovely pub; friendly staff, good food and gluten-free options.

Sons wedding reception here. Staff and atmosphere excellent. Hopeful I can visit again when I venture down south.

Popped in for a quick lunch. Good special burger.

Was in the area randomly and headed to the nearest pub for lunch. Just a great experience. Friendly staff, lovely food..

Fantastic food (including gluten free), brilliant service. Would definitely visit here again.

Friendly staff, lovely beer garden to sit in with well spaced tables and benches. Food came quick and was tasty.

What a night! Thank you Charlie (and staff) for an incredible night!! Was so looking forward to a night of live music by the talented James Deane, who did not disappoint! WOW, what a singer!! The evening was better than we could have imagined! Great service, delicious food, superb company and a little taste of what life will soon be like, priceless!! Honestly Charlie, you excelled last night!! Looking forward to more nights like that!! Thank you!!! 🍺

Lovely food and always great service.

Stumbled across this pub on way home and fancied some lunch. Lovely welcome, friendly staff and a fabulous Fish finger sandwich with a twist. We will return.

I can't vouch for the food or service at The Hampshire Arms but I do know that they gave fantastic support to my 94 year old Dad and dozens of other residents almost the whole way through lockdown. The meals they delivered every Thursday, with the help of the Village Pump and volunteers made a huge difference to him and countless others like him. Thank you to all the staff at the Hampshire. Well done you!

Very expensive. Service slow at times - we waited a long time after our main so much so that we had to ask for our plates to be cleared and couldn't be bothered to order dessert. Myself, my Mum & my Sister visited here on Thursday for a lunchtime catch up. We will probably come back and try again, its a convenient place.

Awesome country pub, great atmosphere and friendly staff. If visiting Crondall the Hampshire is a must. Highly recommend

A small menu but beautifully done. Covid safe so we felt secure.

This was out first visit to this pub and we were hoping for a family Sunday lunch - the first since the relaxation of lockdown rules. The first thing of note was that the staff were outside hosing down the patio area and surrounding grass at 11:55am when we arrived not leaving enough time for the areas to dry prior to opening at 12 noon. We were shown to our reserved table and were told that unfortunately the establishment was only offering their take-away menu for our selections. I understand the reasons for this and we accepted it without question due to the circumstances. Two of our party ordered The Big Kahuna Burger which came with tripled-friend chips; two had the chicken curry; one had the Whitby Baby One More Time; my granddaughter had chicken goujons and tripled-fried chips; we ordered three side portions of onion rings. The burgers can be described as being "rare" - not to my liking but edible. The fish dish were fine but the biggest problem was that the chicken curry was, basically, four chicken goujons (the same as my granddaughter had) along with some plain boiled rice and what was can only be described as a curry sauce which probably came from a jar. In addition, the cutlery was brought to pour table a good three or four minutes after the food had arrived! All of ice cream that was ordered for deserts (four portions) arrived and, when we managed to separate it, we discovered that the inside was basically ice!

The well staffed pub team do an incredible job; Bronnie front of house is amazing, always immaculate, efficient, warm and friendly. Head chef Charlie produces delicious food; the scampi and chips are delightful and I love the twist with the sweet chilli sauce, great idea as an alternative to tartare. The bar team do a fab job of providing the drinks, and do so with charm. Well done! A great dinng experience.

Went for lunch some time ago now. The sandwiches and puddings were lovely 🙂

Really good meal. Flat Iron Steak was fantastic.

This is probably the most friendly pub that I have been to in a very long time. We just happened to be in the area at lunchtime and were looking to get a bit to eat and we found this gem. The lady who served us was very friendly, the other customers were friendly, the food was great and the pub is in a very pretty location. Perfect lunch, next time we're passing, we'll be back.

Cute little pub with nice staff

I took advantage of the August deal and took my grandson out for a birthday lunch, We chose to sit outside as there is plenty of outside garden seating, but could as easily have sat indoors at well spaced tables. Staff were helpful and welcoming but politely ensured all customers followed COVID rules. Sensible menu with enough choice. My steak with garlic mushrooms was cooked exactly as I asked and my 8 year old declared his burger to be the best he’d ever had. Generous portions - we couldn’t manage a pudding. Easy access off the A287. Plenty of parking. A great place to dine.

A good menu with lovely food and friendly staff, and a nice environment.

Lovely food, steak cooked to perfection,and warm,friendly service, will be going back there very soon.

The pub was spotless and welcoming. The staff were attentive and friendly. The food was delicious. We will definitely return.

A lovely lunch today with friends. Pub was spotless staff were friendly and efficient. Food was excellent. I shall definitely return.

The Hampshire Arms is the best food in town, if I could eat here every night I would!!. The team are so helpful and made sure everyone was well looked after. I can not recommend it highly enough.

Fantastic family meal, flat iron steaks enjoyed by all, cooked perfectly! We also had room for pudding, the chocolate brownie went down well and the biscotti cheesecake was a definite winner!

We're trying to find new places to explore this summer and so pleased we ventured to the Hampshire Arms on the recommendation of a friend. The staff were very helpful, food tasty - my only criticism was that the portions were extremely generous - lesson learnt for next time as we did indulge in starters. Will look forward to returning soon.

We had the most fantastic evening the food was absolutely lovely. Fresh and cooked to perfection. Service was brilliant. They have absolutely nailed the social distancing rules which makes us as a family feel safe.

Unbelievably speechless about the horrific manager. Unfortunately my burger was horrid. The lovely waitresses were apologetic and one of them went to get the manager. OMG I have never been spoken to like that from someone in the hospitality business. I am in customer services myself and no what it’s like being on the receiving end of complaints, so I am always as nice as can be. I am at home now and still in shock by the way we were spoken to. He actually said “people like you” and told us to get out of his pub. No apology, no trying to put things right. We paid inflated price for a burger that I simply couldn’t eat. After lockdown I would have thought he would be trying to win customers loyalty back not turning them away to tell many local people of their hideous experience. SHAME ON YOU, you let your lovely waitresses down and my rating for service at the bottom is no reflection on them.

Complained about my wifes burger being poor inedible to eat the way he spoke to us saying people like us as ifIt was our thought will never eat there again his staff out nice unless they change him he needs to go into a different career

Went here today using ‘help out to eat out’ scheme. Sat outside in the gorgeous pub garden! The food was off the scale delicious! Service was incredible, extremely friendly and attentive! Two courses for two people including soft drinks £21 Make sure you try it before the end of August and I’m sure you’ll be popping back because it is just great to have such an amazing pub on our front door! #supportyourlocal

The best prawn and crayfish sandwich We have ever eaten... lovely find .thanks

I went on a Saturday lunch and the burger was delicious along with the dessert. The staff were very friendly and welcoming . The pub was clean and organised. I Would recommend for people who want great service and amazing food.

Nice place for a post lockdown evening meal with the family. Friendly staff and decent food.

Friendly service and very helpful. Lovely village setting. Good size beer garden.

Relaxed atmosphere, delicious and really well priced food. Celebrated mum's birthday here and we all said how great our evening was! The staff are attentive and polite. Love that it's dog-friendly too

Went their recently with my family, had a great evening and the staff were friendly and explained the measure they’ve put in place due to COVID. We had a great meal and felt very well looked after. A couple of people were a bit rowdy but the staff dealt with them professionally and they didn’t interrupt our evening.

Can’t speak highly enough of this lovely country pub, very welcoming and the staff were very friendly and the service was top notch, the food was fantastic, the Brie and bacon sandwich is to die for, A great atmosphere and also dog friendly, it was the perfect place for a post lockdown beer and we will undoubtably be back in the very near future, can not recommend this pub enough, an all round great evening 10/10

At last!! a wonderful meal and great ambience. The pub has a different look and feel in compliance with social distancing and the food and drink management was smooth and felt totally safe.The staff did an excellent job considering the amount of clobber they had to wear!!

So pleased that the Hampshire Arms have been able to open their doors again. But Charlie and Bronnie haven’t been moping around waiting for this day. They have been preparing good quality takeaways which my family have enjoyed AND have been cooking a weekly hot lunch for over 100 older people in Crondall and Ewshot that have been self isolating since the start of the lockdown. The first scampi and chips were provided for free by Charlie as he wanted to do something for the members of the Village Pump group who normally meet in the Hampshire Arms every month. Thereafter the food was provided pretty much at cost and some 1,200 meals have been produced over 14 weeks, enjoyed and really appreciated by many of the more vulnerable people in our community. Well done Charlie and Bronnie - fabulous effort. Tony (Village Pump Group)

First day of lockdown easing and thought it would be a great ideas to book for a nice meal and a few drinks, as soon as we were seated there was a table just up around the corner from us that were very loud and causing a disturbance, great service of our food and drinks, I really can’t complain about the service provided there. The table continued to be a disturbance and while my guest on my table went past them to go to the toilet, was soaked in beer as things escalated between them. The manager didn’t really do much to intervene, and came to our table to reassure us that they were going to be banned from the premises. 10 minutes later the same people who kicked off were allowed back into the pub. That will be the last time I spend a single penny at that place. Very disappointed that Charlie the manager went against his ruling of banning the people involved. It was also very noticeable that the same gents were going to the toilet every 10 minutes, and coming out sniffing like they had a symptoms of a cold or maybe even Covid 19.

Fantastic place to stop and have something to eat. A traditional village pub with a modern twist. The service was great, the food was amazing and very reasonably priced. I will definitely be back again!

The food was delicious and seemed really good value. We were a large party (16) and had the "gallery" to ourselves, giving the children space to be themselves without disturbing anyone else. The gallery room was lovely and the table was laid up for us when we arrived, and staff were so attentive, they moved breakables, and took great care to check that the order they had taken was spot on, etc. Would recommend and hope to return soon!

Great staff good real ale nice place

We decided to take our chances on this pub after doing a Google search to find a local dog friendly place. So glad we did! The pub itself was really nice, had two fires roaring which was very welcome on such a cold evening. The food was absolutely stunning - if in doubt go for the pie. And the staff were really nice, Yasmin was doing a cracking job serving behind the bar and doing table service for those dining. She was friendly, attentive and gave great recommendations. So happy we found this place, we will definitely come back.

This pub is so lovely. The decor is traditional with a fresh, open feel. Two open fires really add to the cosiness. The bar staff are always welcoming and have a smile on their face, chatting to the customers, even the locals are welcoming! The food is amazing, even the sandwiches. The prices are fair, especially considering the location and service. This pub is dog friendly.

Lovely little country pub. Would definitely recommend. 👍👍

Beautiful location and good selection of drinks

Turned up unannounced with 12 people on a Saturday evening and was perfectly accommodated. The burger I had was delicious and the service was spot on. Highly recommended!

The beer was fine and the staff were friendly and efficient. But, my ‘posh’ finger sandwich was not in the least bit posh and at £8.50 should have been. The bread was fine, the tartare sauce and accompaniments fine. The fish fingers were minced, processed and grey.

Me and my friend stopped off for 1 beer on our way home. After being greeted with amazing smiles we slowly managed to keep on ordering. Going from 1 quick pint to 5 and a roast dinner. Will defiantly visit again. The service was great. The food was great and the banter was great. Yaz, Lara, and Charlotte (the lesbian vegan) were fantastic in every way shape and form. Charlie the landlord even made sure to check in on us and make sure our visit was good. Will defiantly be back. 5 star

Great food and well looked after beer. Well signposted from the A287, probably a little further than I would normally want to deviate from our journey but it was worth it.

The best chips around friendly staff and excellent service . would definitely recommend.

We stopped here for lunch and the food was good and the pub has a nice setting with a garden and it was quiet. The service was great and was very accommodating and we would return if we were in the area.

Stopped for a late lunch and it was so lovely. We didn’t realise the pub shut at 3, but we were not rushed out and they kept the kitchen open so we could have dessert. Food was delicious and service was great!!

It was my father in laws birthday and we took him out for Sunday lunch, our whole party would agree that the food was lovely and the service was excellent, we had a lovely experience and will definitely be going back.
