Had a Birthday meal for my husband. Food was delicious, service was brilliant, staff were very friendly and helpful. My husband had pigs ears for starter and chicken stuffed pigs trotter for main both lovely dishes. Was a lovely evening.

The prices you charge for average to poor food and mediocre to normal service/cleanliness are more than sufficient to pay decent fare wages to your staff with out extorting your patrons an extra 15% service charge!! We are not in the USA!! NEVER AGAIN!! There are plenty others!

Overall.... Disappointed. I so wanted a Sunday lunch to be one to remember for the right reasons, unfortunately not. The service was good, however the roast beef was £22 and dominated by vegetables with an ridiculously oversized slice of swede, three potatoes and a huge Yorkshire pudding... Which was clearly designed to hide the three small pieces of very thinly sliced beef! Another surprise came in the price of a pint at £7.50, this is Hamble not Mayfair! So all in all, two mains & three pints = £73.00. I'll leave it to you to decide if this is acceptable to you.

It was OK, nothing special. The chips were the tastiest things we had. 12.5% service charge automatically added to the bill and frankly the waitress was not very pleasant. Wouldn't go again. Jenny cafe around the corner was lovely though. Service with a smile, it doesn't take much!

One of us had fish & chips which was a good sized portion and very tasty. The other had John Dory followed by Knickerbocker Glory . This was tasty but the portion size was very small, and they ended up going home hungry. The John Dory fish was very small, barely a child’s portion really and the dessert was half the usual portion size. The drinks were expensive and there was a service charge of over £9 ! The waitress was very attentive and passed our comments onto the chef. Shame because it’s a great venue, full of character but I don’t think we will be eating here again .

Decided to visit a few pubs in Hamble with friends. Have to say was shocked at the cost of a round in The Bugle. £25.55 for 1 pint of ale, a small Sauvignon Blanc, Small Malbec, packet of crips and peanuts.Not expecting to pay Wetherspoon prices but come on, 8.00 for a small glass of Sauvignon Blanc? Will not be returning any time soon

We had every intention of having one drink and moving on as there are a few pubs within the same area to explore! But we ended up staying the rest of the evening there due to the excellent service and warm welcome by the staff, especially by a man named Norbert. It was very busy when we arrived but they made space for us at the bar, we got chatting to a few locals, time flew by and the next thing we know were nearly the last ones left. At this point we had a very nice conversation with Norbert and you could tell how passionate and enthusiastic he was about his job and how much of an expert he was in his craft. He made the best espresso martini I’ve ever had! Would highly recommend this place.

Lovely spot and a very nice atmospheric pub with pleasant and efficient service. That said, the set menu £20 for two courses, £25 for three is poor value with the portion sizes - especially the mains, being pretty meagre.

Enjoyed lunch on the terrace. different things on the menu to the usual offerings in similar gastro pubs. I made the wrong choice with the hot dog - I'd have preferred a less fussy version with the additions (sauerkraut, onions, etc.) on the side instead of within the bun and not to have the drizzle zig zag. I should have opted for the seafood linguine. The tempura prawns (shared) and my wife's scallops were excellent, and the chocolate brownie, very good if a trifle expensive. Overall, a good leisurely experience. My only adverse comment was the 'discretionary Service charge' added to the bill, just as that and no a mention that this was calculated at the level of 12.5%. I think this % should be highlighted on the bill itself.

Fish and chips were excellent, my Big Tasty flatbread was lacking in flavor ... there was no Big Tasty sauce the bbq brisket was dry and there was a smear of butternut squash puree on the flatbread which did nothing for the dish and I think a drizzle of harissa mayo. Most of the flavour came from the gherkins scattered on it. I love flatbread but was disappointed. I have to add that I did not complain as this is just my personal critism and taste. Staff were very friendly but at £7.50 a pint of Estrella and £6 for cider plus a service charge don't think we will rush back.

This was the best roast I can have since I can remember. If you are thinking of going anywhere else, do not. These guys saved the day when we had been forgotten about and left without food after an hour at a popular eatery on the waterfront. The smoked cauliflower cheese is out of this world. The veg was all cooked to perfection. The Yorkshire pudding is massive and homemade and crunchy! Beautiful private dining room upstairs. The pub has lots of character and a lovely outside area for warmer days!

I have mixed feelings about our visit, albeit we did visit on a Tuesday evening so my review may not be reflective of a typical day at The Bugle. Firstly, the food was great - I had the fish and chips and they made such a simple and traditional dish so very tasty and it even came with a homemade curry sauce which was great. According to the rest of our party, their food was great too and it definitely looked the business. Despite this I did find the menu to be hugely limited with only about 6 things to choose from which was disappointing and they lacked vegetarian options which was a shame given one of the party doesn’t eat meat. Furthermore, it is not cheap. Yes, the portions are big and yes it is all freshly cooked but if you’re branding yourself as a pub then I would expect more family friendly prices. Lastly, there was little to no atmosphere. We were the only people in there eating and there was only two others who were just having a drink. Due to this we felt a bit rushed in and out because they were obviously wanting to close given the lack of customers other than ourselves. I’ve worked in hospitality so I can understand the feeling of wanting to go home and hoping that the last table will hurry up and leave but it did make us feel a bit awkward as we were in no hurry ourselves (and, it was only 8pm). As I said, mixed feelings. Overall: great and innovative food, cosy setting - downside would be prices, lack of atmosphere and limited menu. Would return again but probably on the weekend where I can expect a better sort of atmosphere.

A pie to me is something with a pastry top, not a shank in a pie dish with a bit half an inch of mash on it. After my colleague asked if the meal came with sides or had to be ordered extra was told it had to be ordered as an extra . Extras were ordered only to find small portions of BOTH of the extras were actually included in the dish in the first place. I also do not like the trend in some places to add a service charge and then be told it can be removed if you want it to be, hoping to embarrass the customer into saying it can stay on the tab. The meal apart from the above complaints was enjoyable.

My wife and I decided to give The Bugle a try, we normally frequent Ye Olde Whyte Hart. Was busy when we arrived but no mention of waiting time, we ended up waiting over an hour for our food, there was an apology saying that people had turned up early for a booking. Food to be fair was excellent, great quality and a good sized portion, what wasn't so good was the 10% discretionary charge added, as we were just a couple, I feel that was excessive.

Dropped in on the off chance hoping for fish and chips. We had no reservation and they were fully booked but managed to squeeze us in, politely saying they needed the table clear again within 75 minutes, which was fine. The decor and atmosphere were lovely, the service was charming and attentive, the food was generous in quantity and beautifully cooked. Prices were a little on the high side but we didn’t begrudge a penny for a fabulous experience which exceeded our expectations. We’ll definitely be going back.

We heard there was a new chef which was the main reason we went. We didn’t leave a little disappointed though unfortunately, mainly due to the very small portion sizes and there being no vegetables or sides at all with some meals despite the meal being £15-£18 each. One of us got the Hunters chicken which did not come with any sides and only had 5 small bits of chicken, for around £15 you would expect more than chicken and sauce. Pie of the day was really good but the size of the pie was tiny and hardly had any filling which was disappointing, also a small amount of mash potatoes and no vegetables… Desert was very good, actually got decent portions with that so that was a highlight. Overall it was good was overly expensive at £171 for 4 small portions and desert.

We never usually venture out to Hamble but were here for children's party reasons so decided to come for Sunday lunch at The Bugle. It's really beautifully presented and a nice cosy interior, but by far the most impressive elements were the quality of the food and service. Very attentive and friendly staff who put up with my husband's poor jokes, and the most incredible pork belly roast we've ever had. The vegetables, roast potatoes and giant yorkshire pudding were also very impressive, wonderfully cooked, and everything was piping hot (just the way we like it). We were so impressed that we've vowed to come out to Hamble just to come back for a Bugle lunch. Thanks everyone for a lovely time!

Went to the wine tasting dinner earlier in the month, first time back after a horrendous experience 4 years ago, and we were so impressed we booked again. What a mistake, we won’t be rushing back. Hardly anyone in the pub but our food still took an hour to arrive. When it did finally arrive it was obvious that the new head chef had the day off. Over use of salt in the seafood linguine, and over cooked burgers, with only a threat of bacon. Very disappointing.

We have always enjoyed having a drink there, but had had a couple of disappointing meals there in recent years. So it’s great news that it’s now back at the top of its game. Our party enjoyed fish and chips (“the best pub fish and chips I’ve ever had”) a Bugle burger (“excellent”) and a series of small plates/starters - scallops & black pudding, spicy fried chicken, braised brisket, chargrilled hispi cabbage and onion bhaji, all were beautifully seasoned and perfectly cooked.

As I have been a regular guest of the montagu arms hotel when I heard Norbert was taking over the Bugle and one of their chefs also managing the kitchen, I did not hesitate to book my family new years eve celebration there. Very reasonable price, really attentive service and delicious food. I have seen two 1 star rating and completely unreasonable comment here, so I decided to tell the truth. The evening went very smooth, the service was organised and well timed without being rushed. The dishes were well portioned and presented with a lots of love. Please understand this is a gastro pub not a club or a fine dining restaurant and on that level they did not fail. They delivered everything what they promised and we had a good dance and celebration at midnight. Will definitely recommend and keep visiting the Bugle as a new favourite in Hamble. Thank you for the staff and the management for the fantastic night! Lots of love!

Just delicious, local, well cooked food. The menu lists on the back a map of where (and the company names) they get everything from- including meats and potatoes etc. Had a burger and my god- the Patty was unreal, homemade. The brioche bread and salad- so fresh!! And with so much flavour. Even the fries had exceptional taste. The atmosphere in here is lovely. Cosy for winter - all wooden and fireplaces burning. Lovely. Service friendly, fast and great. Knocked down one point as the dessert (sticky toffee pudding) tasted almost vegan. Artificial or odd tasting (like sweetener) the ice cream a bit over and not as tasty. Also the food is a little pricey, a bit more Gastropub level prices. Would recommend for families, couples, friends. A good all rounder

We're local residents of Hamble and been frequenting the Bugle for a few years so, attracted by their marketing of their New Year's Eve party as a "New Year's Eve Spectacular", an "unforgettable celebration", a "sparkling send off" for Yannick, the outgoing manager. We were promised a "sumptuous feast", "tunes that’ll move your feet, and laughter that’ll make the night complete". In reality, the night was a disaster. There was little atmosphere, friends at the next table had a stand up row with the manager over the poor food quality. There was no "spectacular celebration", and the only laughter was when we couldn't believe our bill. £800 for a table of 6. I raised a complaint but the MD was very defensive, claimed other customers had no complaints (we know this not to be true). I was even asked to suggest my own compensation for our poor experience. After spending literally thousands of pounds in the Bugle over the last few years, their NYE party failed to deliver in a big way. Plenty of choice in Hamble, we've struck the Bugle off our list until the time we see "under new management" on the door.

Stunning meal here last night with our 2 dogs. Amazing food; very dog friendly (made a fuss and bought a bowl over without having to ask); and all round super friendly service. We’ll be back thank you!!

Went to the Bugle for Sunday lunch. It was exceptional. The chef’s special roast brisket was perfect.

Lovely hosts at the Bugle. Fantastic service backed up with great food. We all had different starters and meals and everyone was more than happy. The burger was the best I have had for a very long time and may have been the best ever!

What a lovely pub! We had a fantastic afternoon here with our friends. The mixed starters, tagliatelle, pie, burger, were all excellent. Our very foodie friend, who really is difficult to please, said that it was the best burger he’s had in a long time. That is quite the statement. Great location, atmosphere and very friendly staff. Our dog, a vizsla, was delighted to find fellow Hungarians and lots of treats.

Visited the pub Saturday night while the blurtones were playing. Firstly great band, bar staff were very helpful all night and service was excellent. The pub was very clean and tidy and I would highly recommend visiting this pub if you are ever in the Eastleigh area.

4.5/5. The food was nice but there was not enough variety on the menu. The staff were very nice and friendly. However, there were too many kids screaming and running around making it hard to enjoy the food.
