A first visit to the Hogget meeting a friend for lunch. It was a good decision as there was plenty of parking, a warm greeting when we arrived and good service throughout. There was a very good lunch menu and the Black and Bleu burger was very enjoyable.

My husband and I are regulars. So much so that we feel like we're part of the family 🤣 Absolutely love Jake and the team, they are so accommodating, super friendly. Doesn't matter the time you go there is always a vibe. Delicious food, great selection of drinks (alcoholic and not), treats & water for the doggos. Could not recommend them more! You absolutely have to stop here even if it's just for a drink. You'll not be disappointed.

I rarely leave bd reviews, however, this place was one of the most disappointing Sunday roast dinners I’ve had since my nan sadly passed away in 2019. Her dinners were crap back then. This wasn’t much better. The portions were minuscule and looked like they had been served with teaspoons, I counted ONE stork of broccoli and a cubic inch of stuffing. The chicken however was moist and succulent, not like my nans used to be–very dry and course to swallow. Next up was the attitude of the customer service. Diabolical. Abrupt, rude, and inattentive was the order of the afternoon. Lunch took almost 50 minutes and desert over 30 minutes—apparently everyone had “ordered at the same time”, funny that, being a pub that serves a Sunday roast? Anyways, we were out of town visitors today and should we visit again, we’d probably be more successful milking the local alpacas if we get hungry.

The pub is a traditional and modern blended together very well. It has a good atmosphere, I was here on a Monday evening and there were enough people around. The menu gives a good selection of starters, and a good selection of burgers. The food was very good and I will come back.

We cannot fault, we have been in many times and always a lovely experience every time. Decided to ask about a wake (celebration) for our mum. Mum always enjoyed a lager shandy. They could not have made it a more perfect day. opened a little early for us, Jake and his staff were most respectful, provided a small buffet, even a small vase of flowers on each table. I cannot put into words how special they made a very sad day for us. We will definitely be back, soon. Karen Williamson, Kerry Burton and Kevin Ritchie.

My wife and I returned to eat last Tuesday (cheap ale night). We both chose Dirty Chicken Burgers which proved possibly the best burgers we've had! So, great food, great service and again, a couple of perfect pints of Ringwood 49er! Many thanks to all on duty. 🙂😋👍

Four of us visited The Hogget last Friday for a meal. We waited over 45minutes for our starters. My friend thought his Calamari were inedible. We then had to endure another excessive wait for our burgers. When they came, they were very underwhelming. Two slivers of beef patties inside a burger bun that was stuffed with a wet mushroom and other indescribable items! The chips were OK, albeit a paltry amount served in a tin mug. The best part of the meal was the dessert! We won't be rushing back.

Visited as a party of 3. Ordered Sunday roast and a round of drinks. Drinks arrived quickly and then we waited ages for the food to arrive. When the food arrived they had missed one of the roasts so one member had to wait even longer. We had to ask for cutlery and no one returned to ask if anyone wanted sauces with their meal. We were then offered if we would like to see the dessert menu. We again waited ages for anyone to return to take the order. It was then another long wait for it to arrive. The poor service and timing means we will never return, which is a shame as the food was OK. Luckily there are lots of options for eating out in the area for us to choose from.

I’ve been coming to Tylney since 2010 for special occasions such as birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries etc. sadly it’s gradually gone down hill and this will possibly be my last visit. I dined at the oak room this week and when the menu was put in front of me i had no idea what to order. The menu was outdated, stuffy and very overpriced. Long gone are the days where you sat in the library, had your amuse-bouch and marvelled at what to order. Your order was taken prior to your arrival at the oak room and your wine was waiting at your table for your arrival. I ended up ordering by eliminating either incredibly boring options like soup and ludicrously expensive ones like £47 Dover sole. I had the whipped goats cheese starter and the pork main. The food tasted nice but it really was nothing special. The menu was just lacking in creativity and provenance. Back in the day you’d walk in the oak room and there was live piano, candles on the table and the silver cloche covered your food and was beautifully removed when the dish was in front of you. All these details made the extra cost worth it. When you pair it all back sadly it’s just not worth it anymore. I know places like Tylney are incredibly expensive to run so some adjustments have to be made but these are the things that made it special and kept us coming back over the years. Places like The Pig have left Tylney behind. Perhaps it’s time to rethink the French menu for something with provenance, after all Hampshire is a rich county. Back in the heyday of Tylney Hall 20-30 years ago, I appreciate that English food and wine wasn’t as well known or at the level it is at today but it would perhaps be more imaginative, creative and attract more guests if the menu was adapted to be the ‘best of British’ - including all of the wonderful food that Hampshire and neighbouring counties can offer (including the wine!). Back in the 1990s this sort of traditional French menu felt exciting but by today’s culinary standards it is bland and mediocre. On this visit we also found out that the old snooker table is gone. It broke and it was taken away, never fixed. This is incredibly sad as it was a family tradition to have a game of snooker after dinner in a room which was full of history.

Beautiful hotel, lovely gardens and very interesting history. However, like other reviewers, I have a few niggly things, but most importantly and unfortunately, the service levels let the side down. We were the only people in the restaurant at dinner, and one of our party of four did not receive his appetiser and upon notification, it still didn’t show up at all. They then forgot his main course and by the time they served it everyone else had finished their two course meal. We spent a lot on dinner and a good bottle of French champagne and a fine bottle of red coming to over £400. We mentioned this to the night manager, when he came into the restaurant, which was now in almost complete darkness as they had forgotten to turn on the lights . We also mentioned it to the manager at breakfast who said they would inform reception, but when we checked out at reception, they had not heard about the problem and did not offer any apology or compensation. In fact when she asked what was the problem we pointed out again that one in our party had not received his meal until after everyone else had finished and her comment was “…well when you got the food it was good, wasn’t it?” A few other points, if such a nice hotel is trying to be a four-star hotel, I would certainly recommend the availability of cappuccino and espresso at breakfast instead of just carafe coffee. Also orange juice was from a packet or a can and certainly not fresh or “not from concentrate” or any of the other quality options available. I would suggest waiting until the Hotel is under new management to try this beautiful property. With today’s competitive world and customers a click away from passing you over, I really don’t expect a management team with this service level to stay viable. Update – and as expected, a month later and not a single response from the Hotel even to my phone calls and emails have emailed the management company and the ownership company. They just don’t care.
