Parsons Collar in Winchester

Will be staying here again everything good

Called in advance to watch the rugby. Booked a table and 10 mins into the game they turned the channel over. Would have been fine if we hadn’t booked the table a week ago because they had told us they were showing the game. Very disappointing that we were lied too

Great place for a quck bite or just a pop in drink . Staff are excellent as is the food and service

Orderded food before other members on same table thay got there food finnished it before mine came when asked where mine was told comming orderded pizza when arrived cold on top disgusting for money would avoid people never eaten left behind staff not once asked if all OK could not be bothered to complain as party needed to leave couldn't wait for me to track down someone to question order

Breakfast was OK, sausages were well over cooked very dry and just short of burnt but otherwise all good

Service so slow I asked for my money back. Was told rare steak “takes quite a long time to cook”

Went for an early team meal on a Friday. Sat outside and it was great-just a few wasps due to food and the hanging baskets! Value for money. Friendly staff and good service.

Average food, not too expensive. Empty whilst there so no atmosphere!

Decent pub, lager was cold, service was very good. The burger was really tasty, £2.25 to add bacon was not unreasonable but same amount for cheese is a bit steep as any burger should come with cheese automatically, in my opinion. That took the price up to £19.00 which is quite high. But like I say, it was good, and the fries were excellent. There’s a big pizza oven there but the spicy chicken pizza was a bit disappointing; the chicken was shredded rather than whole chunks. I couldn’t really taste it much, and the texture felt rather like eating canned tuna which was a bit offputting! The sweet peppers were not pre cooked but scattered on fresh, so quite watery. Overall not a brilliant pizza. The sweet potato fries were good but not as good as the regular.

I recently visited Parsons Collar in Fareham, and it was a great experience overall! The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, with a nice rustic charm. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure we felt taken care of throughout our meal. The menu offered a good variety of options, and the food was delicious—well-cooked and flavorful. The only slight downside was that the service was a little slow at times, but nothing that took away from the overall enjoyment. It’s definitely a great spot for a relaxed meal with friends or family, and I’ll happily return again!

Whilst the food is tasty, the size of the meal has gone down when the price hasn't! This was a "large" sharing nachos with spicy chicken costing £20. Previously this used to be a full bowl that was mounted high that would easily feed between four or six people for a light lunch, but unfortunately this fell short of expectation and value for money...

Parking spaces are quite tight, pub seemed alright, near a fancy looking hotel/spa, and close to Whiteley shopping centre. Only had drinks.

My husband and I visited the pub last night. I had fish and chips, which was rather dry and tasteless, and my husband had Hunter’s chicken and was happy with it. Unfortunately he developed a terrible food poisoning that made him really poorly. He has been throwing up for hours (as I’m writing this). I’m not saying it was definitely caused by the pub food, but he hasn’t eaten anything else since and long before, so it’s rather strange. Parsons Collar is our local pub, within a walking distance, with a nice garden, hence why we like to visit it. However the menu is very limited, it’s always cold in there (unless it’s hot outside) and some of the newer staff members don’t seem to be doing a very good job, which is a real shame. I’m now concerned about the hygiene and quality of the food, and I would be hesitant to want to eat here again. I’m very disappointed.

Great place to meet friends, staff first rate ,very helpful.

A pleasant place for a drink and a nice meal! Plenty of outside seating in nice surroundings.

Not overly busy as it wasn't the weekend. The bar staff were pleasant and efficient. Can recommend the cheesy nachos to share - a good amount with the usual sour cream, guacamole, salsa and jalapenos. You can add pulled pork, spicy chicken or beef chilli if you want.

Absolutely amazing find! 2 adults, 2 children and a dog and we all enjoyed everything, the service was outstanding Alex was very attentive and couldn't have asked for better service. Food was fabulous very rare for everything to be spot on! Dog friendly. Will definitely be seeing you all again!

Works lunch, food was pretty good. Had chicken wings for starter (suggestion, separate the wings and legs, will make it easier to eat) burger for main and cheesecake for dessert. Place was clean and tidy, well lit. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Overall, pretty decent.

Great food, good value, wonderful service Highly recommend the goats cheese and onion pizza

Excellent food and excellent service, can't beat watching football and having a nice meal

Short on bar staff but it's a very busy place! Great friendly atmosphere and lots of seating inside and outside. Delicious pizzas!

Ordered the spicy pizza, excellent quality, nice atmosphere and friendly staff

Fantastic this afternoon in there beer garden. Beer and food going down rather well. Would recommend.

Food was good staff friendly and helpful

This is a place I frequent with work colleagues for various celebrations, a casual drink or lunches. For the most part the service is good bar one or two isolated insodences of rudnes but overall still friendly. Food is good and so is the atmosphere.

Staff were very friendly and polite

Bit cold and a draft, food was good not enough visitors shame

The food is awful. The burger bun was stale and rock hard. The burger itself was so overcooked and brick like

Overpriced pints. Staff were neither friendly or unfriendly just present.

No stars for food for reasons I will explain. I called in to book a table for this Friday at 8pm. It wasn't busy but took ages before I got served. I asked if I could book a particular table for Friday which he said yes. He then turned on his computer and looked for some blank paper. He then came back to me and said I will do it later and proceed to serve someone else. He never even asked for my name or contact details. I am not expecting the table to be reserved for us on arrival. The service and manner was pretty dismal

Food was nice and staff are very friendly but the pub was quite chilly! Luckily I was able to get the food brought to my room, which was right next door at The Lodge, didn't find out until after that I could have ordered via a QR code but that wasn't a big deal. Had the large nachos with chilli which was £16, including the 10% discount. There were way too many jalapenos but other than that it was tasty.

Mediocre food from a limited menu nothing to write home or get excited about. Staff are friendly and helpful Very much a hotel bar rather than a local pub

Very disappointed by the food options. I had the steak pie. Very poor imho. Very tough and too chewy for me. Others liked the fish and chips and chicken wings with hot sauce. It was busy but I would choose elsewhere in future.

Generally a nice atmosphere. A little bit pricey but worth it, in my opinion. Clientele are generally very nice. Food is reasonable. Staff are great.

Awesome experience from start to finish with friendly staff attending to our needs. Delicious food and good size portions.

We had a sharing plate of cheesy nachos with sour cream, salsa and guacamole, it could have served 4! Fish and chips were soooo good, the batter was especially good. Full English breakfast the next day was fab.

Took grandkids for a meal tonight. I couldn’t eat the steak pie as meat was so tough. The mash was cold and lumpy. My grandson’s steak he said was ok but very tough. He ate it as he was hungry. Won’t be eating there again I’m afraid

Last resource restaurant and there are not many places to go. Simple cousine but great beers selection

Had a couple of drinks and a meal in here, nice and friendly staff. I liked that you can order on your phone from your table and they bring it to you. The food was good , we had a couple of burgers which were nice but not sure about the brioche buns, they were weird but overall nice food, had chicken wings which were nice and crispy but moist at the same time. And chocolate brownie and a sticky toffee pudding after which were lovely. We’d definitely eat here again

Rather noisy between 4.30and 5.30

Quite nice pub. Food was far better than I expected!

Our 'local'. Good selection of beer and wine. Reasonably priced menu - tasty pizza. App ordering as well as in person. Nice garden with heaters. Dog friendly. Ticks every box.

Rammed on a Friday evening. Fortunately we had reserved a table. An outside table would have been quieter though. Feral kids running around indoors. 30-minute wait for food advised when we ordered at the bar and that was accurate. Food was hot and tasty. A bit disappointed to have the mushy peas (accompanying the haddock) in a polystyrene cup on the plate...

Good family friendly pub. Love sports and lovely beer garden!

Nice catch up with friends, a few gins and nachos. Quiet for a Sunday afternoon.

Very nice meal , The staff were friendly polite

Expensive for standard pub grub, small menu and the service was very slow

Went there to eat vegan and was disappointed in the menu and the item. Very bland and poor effort with presentation

Dreadful service. 15 minute wait to get attention and had to stop a member of staff to get any. Waitress looked like I'd misgendered her.

Dog friendly place wirh good food, quality service and all well priced. Won't be the last visit for sure. And it wasn't. Still as good.

My son in law, baba and 🐶 enjoyed an hour here yesterday sitting under a canopè of beautiful trees in full lead. The garden is comfortably furnished and peaceful. And you can order from the table. Just what we needed. Oh, and the chips were yummy 😋 and my lime and lemonade, cold with just the right amount of lime.

It's a bit grubby and the staff didn't look that excited to be there either.

Very poor quality food won't be going back.

The service at the Restaurant Parsons Collar was absolutely disgusting. Was told there would be 30 min wait for food. 45 mins later, still no food even though other people had been served. Manager lied and said they said there would be a 45 min wait. Theres no way we would have waited that long if they said that in the first place as we had work to go back to. He refused a refund or to give his name replying “I haven’t got a name” and shrugged his shoulders. I got told there was no one above him I can complain to. Been a member of the adjacent gym Solent Hotel for nearly 2 years and the service from the restaurant was so disappointing.

Visited for a family meal. It was a bit noisy for chatting. Not all items on the menu were available that night. Overall a bit disappointing.

Great staff and great service. The veggie burger was lovely

Nice place to meet. Food was good, waiting time at bar was quiet long, but staff very friendly

OK for a lunch near the office, received an unwelcoming acknowledgement especially as booked and ordered up front due to party size but otherwise no issues.

I would like to give the Parsons collar a higher star rating. Service good, food good...The problem.....Hubby is diabetic and does not like cola or pepsi...so no other option for a sugar free non alcoholic drink being available makes the star rating fall. In this day and age of being aware of sugar content, when calories per meal are advertised on the menu, why wouldn't you have a diet lemonade available!

The food was very nice! Went for the pizza and didn't regret it!

Nice place to watch football, there’re lots of TV’s to watch the games and the ambient is very nice.

What great food! Lovely place to eat. Would definitely recommend

Very clean and spacious environment and obviously popular, food is served and looked good but we were only here for a few drinks before moving on. They had a good selection of beers and those we tried we're all very good would happily come back again.

Great meal and service. Good choice of beers.

Nice local pub with a nice atmosphere and good food.

Very nice pub and friendly staff

Expected more, definitely a disappointment.

Very poor allergens understanding and menu. Nice venue, although not cheap

Popped in for lunch before our spa break. Had burgers with sweet potato fries. Absolutely delicious. Staff polite and friendly. Warm and cosy atmosphere. Christmas tunes playing. Ideal way to start the weekend.

Very much becoming a sports bar. Not for me.

We ate here on a Thursday afternoon. It was not busy, no one come and asked if our food was OK. No one come and cleared our plates when we had finished eating. Even though the pub was empty and 4 staff behind the bar chatting and on their phones. Will not return or recommend.

There's nothing like a pint after football. Vibes were good and there is a great outdoor area, a few tables have small TV's for that personal viewing and there is also a big screen. Bar staff were friendly and helpful. Not sure on the food though or pricing, only stopped for a quick Pint.

Best pizza and burgers in the area, by far! Helpful staff and good prices. Good outside area with heaters for when colder. Great location for a drink and a meal any time of the week! Also I love the fact that they are dog friendly 🐕 🐩 🐶 will totally recommend

Great place, great atmosphere with lovely food

Fantastic food however choice of draft beer could be improved

The food is ok and the price not too bad. Shame that they are terribly understaffed and they take ages to clear tables, making the place look quite dirty and unappealing.

Great food and staff are very friendly

Pleasent place to have a mug of beer👍

Nice and friendly staff, with an excellent garden.

A lovely local pub and restaurant with a garden.

Not bad but as an addition to a hotel I would expect a bit more!!

Came here for a friend's wedding, its beautiful. We stayed at the lodge, the wedding ran really well and the bride and groom were very well looked after. I was a bit disappointed with the main toilet and the light in our room. The toilet handle was broken in the main toilets. In our room I found it odd that the lamp light that was there by the mirror on the desk was yellow, it should be a white light not a yellow one, if it's there for the purpose of makeup, but it was also broken, under the bed were weird trolly things those too were broken. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay.

Very good food, very quite pub on a Sunday. Good value, good food, poor music

Excellent customer service and the food is very good quality.

Service was quick and efficient. The bar was clean and well spaced. The drinks were fairly priced and the food was delicious. I went for prawn salad on the barmaids recommendation and it didn't disspoint. Our whole party of 12 were thoroughly impressed.

Had a very pleasant and lovely time in this place... The staff are really friendly and helpful.. Special thanks to two of the most welcoming & helpful Staff members Kathryn and Laura.

Very expensive. Bacon cheese burger and chips and orange and lemonade £19.40. Lemonade with a dash of lime £4.15.

I marked this place with two stars based on our last visit. It's quite handy when staying at the Solent Hotel for a quick bite to eat and a drink. Normally "mediocre" kind of food.. but we were really disappointed after our visit there on Tuesday. The burger arrived burned and tasteless with half of a gherkin on the side as garnish. The pizza was almost inedible.. cheese barely melted and pepperoni seemed just thawed!!! My goodness!! Last time we were there.. never again!!

Very airy restaurant with good selection of food.

Great portions, good value for money, shame the smokers are allowed to sit right by the open door, so smoke drfts in to the restaurant.

Nice place for a drink and to chill! Staff are very polite

Nice food which arrived quickly.

Nice modern bar, friendly staff

Much improved menu, good place to go for a drink. On one occasion though the meal took half an hour to arrive, this seems a little too long given the place was half empty. If you're in a hurry, I don't recommend ordering food here.

Nice food and very friendly service.

Very hostile barmaid told me to stand away from the bar while I was dri nking .I was not inebriated and there were no customers waiting to be served. I was not made to feel welcome and I feel this employee needs to learn how to deal with the public. She did apologise after I confronted her about her attitude but I won't use this pub again until they train their staff properly

Great meal tonight, bacon and chicken salad, delicious. Half a roast chicken with bbq sauce, delicious. Highly recommend the bar and restaurant. Great atmosphere and food.

Really good food for the price, pleasant and friendly service.

Great pub with a nice outside area. 👌

Lovely big pub with lots of atmosphere. Bar staff were very friendly
