The Bitterne Park Hotel in Southampton

Food is awful for money. As someone who has been to the Caribbean 2 minutes away and this one, please go to the other one. Soca or something. This is shocking value compared to there. Cocktails are good, but only tired one, so not sure on the rest. Pretty awful 😞

Restaurant called Mbuntu. Would give 0 Stars if I could. They got orders wrong even after writing them down, they got the drinks order wrong, then we waited nearly an hour for the food, they then bring out partial parts of our food order, half our party was left with no food whilst others had their food. Food portions all over the place, some food orders were tiny portion wise whilst others over the top. I ordered a bacon & egg sandwich, it size of a small smart phone, side orders of chips so small you could count them, mains courses taste like frozen foods microwaved. Service is terrible, they even tried to charge us more than the bill was. Never ever again.

Dirty and very hot room, dirty towels , bed sheets and carpet, Wright on the busy road, poor and run down area, room was soo hot and window doesn’t open much

First visit to a lovely pub, but no Ales/ciders available on the pumps, except Heineken. None of the cocktails available on the pumps, or the table menu, (then why have the cocktail list on the tables). Card machine not working and when paid in cash, could not give any change, as no float in the till !! Kept waiting at the bar for drinks, barman was terrible, no idea what he is doing when he did eventually serve you. Will not be going back !!

Friendly staff and the rooms were clean and served our purpose. Shame it didn't do breakfast but a couple of local cafes do from 8:30.

Good beer Unity and Redcat breweries on tap, friendly welcome and live football. The staff were friendly thanks

Just had Sunday lunch. It was delicious. The beef melted in your mouth and served with a lovely homemade Yorkshire and fresh vegetables. Very friendly staff and great value. Highly recommended

We had a family Sunday roast here at the weekend. Was very enjoyable, and great value for money. Staff are trying hard to please customers and actually care (you don’t see that to often these days) We live local and have never used the pub in the past, but I think we will now.

My 4 Star is because I know this has only recently been taken over after a long time of having a bad reputation. We are a local family who were told of the new ownership and that they had just started doing food so opted to take the chance of a Sunday Roast. Potatoes were crispy which I find quite rare in pubs these days, the same for Yorkshire puddings. Both were great. Veg had ‘bite’ so not mushy and a fair helping of meat. Really friendly and welcoming staff which made the experience even better - you can tell when there is genuine effort to ‘get it right’ and more importantly, trying to understand what the customers want to continuously improve everything! I really don’t want too many people knowing this is a gem otherwise we won’t be able to get a table! Overall, really good, great potential and I look forward to seeing the place flourish. We will support a local independent business like this, I urge everyone to do the same. As with all places we visit, the test is the 2nd time round. I would advocate this to all. Don’t visit and have a negative time and think that’s it. The same for a positive experience. Re-visit!!

One of my favorite pub of the town, the staff is the kindest who I ever meet in my life, same about the customers who are so kind also. I recommend to everyone (family, friends, couples) A very lovely place, with pool table and darts! I really love this place! From Paris with love Arnault.
