Avoiding motorways, driving across country, we found this pub. Hosts were inviting and the food excellent, everything was fresh and prepared to order and was well presented in a timely manner. Even though I live in Sussex, the next time I’m in the area, I will head for this pub again. Thank you

It's a great location and food isn't bad but it's expensive. Most pints are in the region of £6.50 plus, mains are £17.50 with lots over £20-£25. I ordered chicken wings starter which cost £7.50 and only got 6 of them. It's family friendly but if you want something budget friendly then look for somewhere cheaper!

We hadn’t been here for quite a while, & were surprised by how quiet it was. It was a hot lunchtime & it has a lovely garden. We were passing & thought we’d pop in on our way out for the afternoon. Our lunches were nice, but, we thought, very expensive. It’s a shame, but others have mentioned it too. The staff were lovely.

Unusually quiet after last visit but faster service this time and very good food again. Plenty of menu choices and good portion sizes. Lovely fresh goats cheese salad and chunky chips which the others enjoyed Mediterranean kebabs can’t wait to return. Oh and they do Sunday lunches too.

Our party of four enjoyed the atmosphere and our lunchtime meals at Jekyll and Hyde pub. Food was hot with generous quantity. Servers were pleasant. Marked down for both Lamb Skewer and Baklava unavailable today although I had previously advised that my wife was Greek and looking forward to our visit today.

We came here for dinner after our last visit many years ago. The restaurant is now run by a Greek family and the menu has some wonderful Greek dishes. The pub is very pretty inside and outside. Warm fire and wooden beams etc We were greeted very warmly by Chris who spent time with us over the course of the evening with menu recommendations and places to visit in Greece. I highly recommend the baked feta parcel for starters and the chicken skewers for the main. For dessert the Baklava and home made icecream were divine. Strongly recommend visiting this pub.

Absolutely terrible experience. We had to go and ask for menus. Took 30 mins to take our drinks order, food took about an hour and one of the mains was missing. 30 mins after our desert order was taken, they came and said it hadn't reached the kitchen so we just told them to leave it. Awful service, average food (at best) and terrible experience. Expensive prices, will not be returning.

We went as a couple on Saturday night and was very surprised there was only 2 other tables taken, we soon realised why, 2 drinks £15 , Guinness £6:90 , food portions very small , food very average, food well overpriced. It’s far to say we won’t return.

Went with spouse and had a lovely dinner at this beautifully decorated place. Staff was so polite and welcoming, can't define it in words, simply brilliant! Food was delicious too, hummus and pita was great to start with and was abundant quantity. Grilled hallumi was okay-ish, no bad though. Chips were crispy and hot, so I'd say they did well with that too. Main course: Thai Green Curry (veg) was amazing, it was really tasty and yet wasn't overloaded with oil so didn't hid my gut hard, so happy with that. We also had desserts: baklava and J&H homemade vanilla ice cream with walnuts. Both were good, I loved ice cream more though. Will be back again!!

Had a family gathering at this pub to celebrate my daughter’s recent birthday. We all ate and had drinks there. Service, politeness and helpfulness of staff was good. Being a party over a certain number we had to pre book our starters and main course which wasn’t a problem, but I found this establishments food and drinks way over priced, both food and drink. Large white wine £9.90, firstly ferret pint £5.90. You can view the price of the meals on their website. I just had a burger which came with chips. It was quite nice but quite average. Before I started eating it the bottom half of the bun was soaked in burger grease and was mush. The chips I wouldn’t be surprised if they were McCain’s straight frozen or possibly some other brand, but not fresh made. Holding the burger together was a wooden skewer and placed on top of the burger was two slightly cooked onion rings which I would say also come out of the freezer. I have eaten better burgers from McDonald’s or Burger King for half the price. My wife had Dover Sole and said the fish was nice, but over priced. For a sweet four of us had baklava. It’s was a fair portion of baklava, but rated about a 6.5 to 7 / 10. As we left the pub I only counted 4 people in the pub, perhaps there were more that I couldn’t see, this was at approx 18:30 on a Saturday evening. The inside of the pub is nice, shame about the prices. My wife asked me would I come here again, I replied I wouldn’t choose to come here, and she agreed. It wasn’t my choice to go there for this visit. The quality of the food doesn’t warrant such high prices.

I gave this place a 2 star just for the nice customers and pub decor. Staff are unwelcoming, rude, no customer service skills. Guy behind the bar seemed like he didn’t want to be there or serve us, the girl working in restaurant did not want to answer a simple question that I asked her. The place was not even busy! We drank our drinks quickly and made an exit. We won’t be returning. Very uncomfortable experience.

My husband and I visited here for our wedding anniversary meal as hadn’t been there for many years. It is a traditional old pub/restaurant - solid block walls and timber ceilings, situated on the main Basingstoke to Reading road. Beautifully decorated for Christmas inside. Had pre-booked and was greeted by friendly staff who showed us to our table. There is a very good choice of meals to choose from, starters , mains and desserts, as well as a comprehensive wine menu. All food served was delicious and hot, the main meal was plentiful. Didn’t have room for dessert which was gutting as I wanted the Baklava! On originally reading the write up and glancing at menu, I did expect this to be a traditional Greek food place. However, there were only a few items of this and then more traditional pub type food. Saying this, the Greek style food we both chose was amazing. We did query their status and advised us that they did run traditional Greek nights a few times in the year offering full Greek food and dancing. We will definitely have to look out for these. We found all the staff extremely polite and friendly throughout the evening. Highly recommended this venue.

I am amazed at the poor reviews - ignore them. This is a fantastic resturant with great food and great service in lovely surroundings. My wife and I took her 94 year-old father for an early Sunday lunch. We hadn't booked and arrived before they had even opened so the door was still locked. I expected to be turned away but we were greeted by Ullyses who was very friendly and gave us a very warn welcome. Thanks, Ullyses. Yes, the prices are a little above your average pub but so it the quality of the food. We had the Sunday roasts which were very tasty with lots of different fresh veg. The puddings were delicious too. So, ignore the poor reviews and try it for yourself. I will certainly be going back again soon.

There was 11 of us that attended on 8 December. The Christmas decorations and lights inside the pub were fantastic. It was such a lovely welcome. I cannot fault the service that was provided by the wonderful staff. The food was absolutely incredible and portion sizes were just great - no skimping on anything. Everyone of us were really impressed with each of our dishes from starters, mains and desserts. So pleased that we chose the Jekyll and Hyde for our annual get together.

Positives first. The Christmas decorations are beautiful. I was the only person im the pub amd waited a good 5 minutes or more before a member of staff appeared. I asked for a cheese and tomato toasted sandwich instead of cheese and ham amd was told it was not in the system. The bar staff agreed to do that. We ordered two toasted sandwiches at £10.95 each. That half a pint and a pint of coke a few pennies short of £30. The food is more than disappointing. Its a rip off. If I could post a photo of the ham in my sandwich I would. There's processed ham and theres plastic mine was the latter . Not on a brwon bloomer just basic sluced brown bread . I did not eat my sandwhich and was not asked why. We also asked for the music to be turned down as we couldn't hear ourselves think or speak. It was turned down then turned back up again along with the tv upstairs blaring through the ceiling. Not a place I would ever visit again . Shocking prices for cheap ingredients.

Considering this is a Hall and Woodhouse pub, we were very disappointed to find it had a measly one Badger beer on tap (Fursty Ferret). Not even any others in bottles!! Barman seemed disinterested, food was poor with barely one third of a chicken breast in my chicken baguette. Very disappointed - we last came her a few years ago when it was much better.

The food was great and we were pleasantly surprised by the level of Greek specialty. If I had one complaint, I would say that my lamb skewers were slightly tough, but I am aware lamb is a difficult meat! The portion sizes were great too.

Re-heated junk. Oven chips you’d have at home. Kids Mac & cheese that tasted like the appalling canned stuff, anaemic chicken nuggets. A so called King burger not fit for a dog and a vegetarian burger comprising of a dry slightly stale bun, a sliver of lukewarm halloumi. In short, significantly worse than Wetherspoons and a total rip off. Avoid.

I had high hopes but felt let down. Food was nice but very expensive. Every thing was fresh and delicious cannot fault them there. It’s the pricing. My biggest issue was the coffee. I ordered a liquor coffee and expected more than the tiniest cup I’ve ever seen. That was not worth £7! I was expecting a coffee, a shot of alcohol within and milk if desired. Overall nice food in nice surroundings but we will not returning due to poor value.

We went for Mother’s Day lunch at short notice. The pub is lovely inside, and all the staff were friendly. Service was efficient and our orders were spot on. The portions were a good size and very tasty. They were on the pricy side but it was a special occasion. The roast barely had any gravy sadly, but the vegetables were beautifully cooked. The real negative was the extortionate price of the drinks. £4.20 for a small bottle of Fanta, and another £4.20 for a lemonade. Nearly as much as the lovely pint of Fursty Ferret. Worth a visit in the summer too given the country garden.

The last time I ate here, albeit almost 30 years ago for a work's Christmas lunch, our plates wobbled on the table because there was a mass of cling wrap under the plates which had not been removed after microwaving! Hoping that the pub had changed ownership or management during the intervening year, I gave it a try for a family lunch.No cling wrap this time round, but their serving practices were not great. Their portions need larger plates!Hunter's Chicken.Q. How can you cut your the chicken breast if it is served on top of the chips?A. Eat your peas so that you have space on the plate.At twice the price of the same dish from a Greene King pub, there was a lot less chicken, which was quite dry and over baked on the edges.Roast dinners.Similar issue of struggling to find space on the plate to be able to cut anything.The only aspect of the experience that I would commend is the mini puddings/coffee combo. A small pudding and a good coffee at a reasonable price.Arriving home to find a "brown" sauce on the seat of my trousers just confirmed my impression that the place was all about maximum profit, getting as many covers per seat with minimal staff, who have no time to smile let alone fully clean a table between sittings.We won't be going back any time soon. We would rather find a Green King pub to eat freshly cooked food with a great range of drinks at half the price.

First time experience was great! Booked for 17 people, Gave a lift of the main meals in advance and the food was great. Was busy, but the service was excellent and it was service with a smile.

The place is very pleasant, the staff very friendly and the food excellent. It is not the first time we visit this place and it will definitely not be the last. We thank all those who work there for everything was wonderful.

Nice people and good service. But the food was really not quite up to standard, in particular the vegtables. Things do go wrong in the best establishments but too serve kaki greens is just not on.

Been here many times as a family and with friends. Always good but tonight not good. The most worrying thing was when I told the manageress my concerns she was really rude and not interested. Left a nasty feeling and will not be back for a while.

Booked a table for family birthday celebration as was good back in the summer..The staff especially the waitresses were lovely but food was below average.Gammon steaks were no thicker than a a bacon rasher and very dry.Battered fish was very greasy. Some of the lettuce in salad was brown.Steak was really tough and chewy( half of it wrapped in a napkin and taken home for the dog ) Puddings were of a poor standard.Staff did reduce the bill but we all wish we had gone elsewhere to eat.

Staff were so friendly, welcoming and efficient, the menu had so many appealing dishes it took us all ages to decide what to order, the food was awesome, well presented, good portion size and excellent value for money, the atmosphere and ambience were second to none, would highly recommend and we will definitely be going back there again

We called in at this lovely country pub while driving the A33 from Basingstoke to Reading this week and were incredibly impressed. It's lovely and cosy as you go in, with an open fire, and then opens up at the back with a surprisingly large restaurant area. The whole place has a great atmosphere, the staff are lovely and the food was fantastic - and very good value at £17.95 for three-courses. We will definitely be back!

Was in Basingstoke area and it was lunch time.. one of the nicest pubs in the area.. the ale was great.. and i already had my XMas lunch - turkey, vegetables, yorkshire pudding with gravy :-).. the chicken was good as well.. and great desserts.. the pub has quite a lot of history and although renovated has a dated look.. I always love old pubs and will love to be back here.. Recommended!

Having driven past on numerous occasions I finally managed to pop in with a couple of colleagues for an early evening meal. This is a lovely old pub / restaurant with friendly staff.

We were a party of 18, visiting to celebrate an 80th Birthday. I visited a few days beforehand to discuss the arrangements, and to collect a menu and wine list so that everybody could choose their food. On arrival I was greeted by name (which is always a nice touch), and we were shown to the large room as requested. All was as we had arranged, and we had fixzz to start. We were given a good amount of time before the starters and the mains came out.

We decided to give it a try after a friend recommended it. We were not disappointed. We booked a Sunday lunch time table. Had drinks at the back in the lovely outdoor area before moving inside to order lunch. The place was quite busy so the service was slightly on the slow side but the staff were all super friendly & helpful. Food was great. We'll definitely return! P.S. There's a lovely play area at the back for families with small children.

We'd given the Jekyll and Hyde a wide berth for some time as it was failing miserably. Now under new management I can say, hand on heart, that its a lovely place with great food (good portion sizes) and happy and obliging staff. We will certainly be going back again very soon. Good luck for the future

We had a great experience at the lovely Jekyll and Hyde Pub. The food was lovely (we all had different - burger, Hunters chicken, fish & chips and steak). The staff were second to none and we couldn't fault the atmosphere. The kids loved the outside garden area and we felt very welcome as a family. We will definitely be returning there.

This pub has been here for more years than I wuld like to remember, unfortunately the last Manager made a bit of a dissaster of the place and it therefore suffered in both quality, service and obviousley business. I am pleased to say that not having been there fore some month,s, it is under new management and getting back to where it should be. Good luck with it.

A nice pub off the A33. An excellent selection of food including some special deals on most days of the week. The food looked good & tasted good. The staff were friendly & helpful. The only critism is that somehow from the taking the order at the table to the delivery of the drinks and/or food from the bar or kitchen, there is a link missing somewhere. All the issues were resolved quickly & without issue but perhaps they could review their communication skills. Not with the customer but between themselves. Firstly the barman came with the wrong drinks, then the waitress brought out the wrong food. In this case they supplied fillet steak instead of sirloin which was in the region £10 dearer ( two sirloins were actually ordered). However, when it was pointed out they gave the option to keep the fillet or have it replaced with the sirloin with no extra charge. We chose the first option as my 92 year old father-in-law was not a big eater anyway. As mentioned previously, all the food was good.

We’ve lived locally to this pub for a number of years and have always said we’d pop in one day. Today we finally did and what a pub we’ve been missing! This place has lovely staff, amazing food and a great pub garden for the children to play in. We will be returning soon.

What a find this was having had a great day out at Milestones Museum Basingstoke, we were very late looking for food 3:30, we stopped expecting to get sandwiches at best. We were serviced up a feast hot good food serviced by the most friendly lady who really couldn’t have done more. Would most definitely recommend this pub/restaurant to everyone roomy restaurant very good menus to suit all.

We went for a Sunday roast and wasn't disappointed, had a lamb shank with all the trimmings and it was very tasty covered with minty gravey.

Was in the middle of eating my lunch when I needed a drink of water. Went up to get a water came back to find my lunch had been taken away. Even though my coat and bag was on the back of the chair to show that there was still someone sat there. I asked the lad have you just taken my food and he said yes sorry then walked off. Bar was busy but only 2 people working behind it. So bit of a que.
