Saying farewell to a loved one is stressful and emotional. But the team at The House Martin hosted the most lovely celebration of life for Mike's family and friends. Ashley treated us with compassion from the moment we called up to enquire, and he understood we didn't have exact numbers. He was an angel. Before the day, the awesome chef, Jason, spoke with us about the cakes he would bake and they were utterly delicious crowd-pleasers. On top of that, the beautiful setting gave us the room to talk and reminisce together. Outside of this, we've enjoyed lovely lunches in the recent past. The food and drinks are fab and all the crew are attentive. Thank you from the bottom of my heart <3

We called in lunchtime for a drink and probably lunch. We sat outside as a hot day. The tables outside the front of the pub were absolutely filthy. Didn’t look like they’d been cleaned in a long while. The pub was not at all busy and the bar staff could have easily cleaned these tables. We decided that if the tables were left in this state one wondered what state the kitchen would be in. Didn’t fancy taking the chance so left and went to the Walkford pub nearby. Which turned out to be a better place.

We’ve been to many Hall & Woodhouse pubs for meals but this stood out with the quality of our meals which would have gone down well in any of top quality restaurants we’ve been to when travelling around the South West. The starter of salt and pepper squid was perfectly cooked and followed by sea bream with a side of vegetables which was an absolute pleasure to eat . Staff were friendly, attentive and met any request with a smile and exceptional service. One of the best experiences we’ve had in many years of eating out. Thanks to all at the House Martin

Pub was quite empty on a Saturday Lunchtime. Drinks seemed expensive but maybe its the same everywhere now. The food service was poor- very slow, cold plates and very casual staff who didn't interact well with customers. Food was disappointing. Too much on the menu I think and poorly cooked. Our salt and pepper prawns were in edible. The Halloumi was overcooked and very rubbery. One to We will avoid in future.

From the time we walked in the door we were made to feel extremely welcome We had our dog with us who was promptly given a bowl of water. Ordered drinks and food. Food arrived looked and tasted amazing. Our meals were good quality and piping hot. Tables cleared after eating promptly. Only one dessert ordered but it was presented beautifully and tasted very good too. Very welcoming, will definitely be back.

New to the area, we are trying out different pubs serving food. The House Martin pub is a lovely pub to visit. Friendly staff, lots of space with a great light filled dinning area. Good beer and we were all pleased with the tasty food served , at a reasonable price. See photos. We shall be back soon!

Came here for lunch with my Father during the week. Although it was Friday afternoon, was lovely to see the pub was not too overcrowded. There is a lovely eating area which is separate from the bar area, which is very spacious, with a lot of interesting paintings and unique ornaments to look at. One only very minor improvement, would be that is would be even nicer to have a bit of background music playing in this room. My Father ordered the venison, which he very much enjoyed, and also said was a very generous portion size. I ordered the bacon and cheese burger. The burger was incredibly tasty, succulent and a very generous size. Chips were very tasty too and quite thickly sliced. The tomato and lettuce were very fresh and it was wonderful to get a good sized gherkin with the meal too. The coleslaw with the sauce in it was so tasty, and really made a difference to the overall taste of the meal as well. Due to the very generous portions sizes, both our meals were very good value. The waitress that was attending to us, was incredibly polite, welcoming and very friendly. She was also very helpful and attentive and made our visit a real pleasure. She truly provided outstanding customer service.

I don’t normally write reviews for places but my visit to the House Martin this afternoon left me with no choice but to share the exceptional experience I had today. I had visited in the past and whilst the cosy yet open atmosphere inside and the spacious gardens outside made it the perfect place to grab a drink, the food was nothing to write home about. When I heard that the pub was under new management and now offers a completely refreshed menu, I decided to pay a visit for lunch on a day off work. ‘Pub food’ doesn’t do their offerings justice! The meal I had today puts most restaurants to shame, who’d charge far more. No need to go to Bournemouth or Southampton when food of this quality is right on my doorstep. The halloumi fries for starters were the thickest I’ve ever seen. Should be called halloumi batons or something as the word fries completely undersells them. For mains I had the bacon and cheese burger with chunky chips. The burger was fantastic. Not too greasy, yet so thick and delicious. The coleslaw was evidently freshly made and a good portion too. And the chunky chips! Oh, the chunky chips! The best chunky chips I’ve tried, bar none. Perfectly cooked. Not too soft nor too hard. I usually go for sweet potato fries when available when I’m eating out as I’ve had too many cases of improperly cooked chunky chips. But these were perfect. Next time I’ll order another portion on the side. 😂 As I mentioned at the start of this review, the thing that made this the best pub in the area was the lovely cosy, yet open, atmosphere. The high ceilings and spacious floor plan create a space which stands in stark contrast to the dingy and claustrophobic feel of other local pubs. Staff are some the nicest bunch you’ll meet. Especially Ashley, who bent over backwards to make sure all my needs were met. He greets everyone with a warm smile and makes you feel like you’re at home away from home. The House Martin is undoubtedly not just a place to go for a drink anymore, but a destination for anybody looking for mouthwatering, hearty food in a delightful atmosphere. I know I’ll be coming back, again and again.

30 plus local ladies had a post Christmas lunch at The House Martin on the 16th January, 2024. Ian and his team were excellent hosts. Delicious food, very generous portions, great service and a great atmosphere. The extra touches; Christmas crackers, table decorations, etc. all added to the experience and a great time was had by all. A big thankyou to Ian and his team for a very enjoyable afternoon.

Live local and decided to try ' the local' for Sunday lunch , been a few years since last ate there , mainly as our previous visit the food wasn't very good. Our visit this time pretty much the same which is such a shame. Sunday roast - plates cold , food barely warm and flavourless lamb. Won't be visiting again , slow service too, not our table but could see other tables getting frustrated. We eat out twice a month at various pubs and some cracking food and service in the local area and around the new forest. Such a shame this one is a let down 😔

So many times the meal is let down by what comes with the steak , not here good quality accompaniments. Wife had chicken which like the steak was cooked to perfection.

Dropped in on a random lunchtime visit. It's a great looking place, beautifully decorated and very spacious. Great range of beers at the bar or anything else you might like. The food was excellent and more than enough portion size. The fish and chips and the steak, wonderful! The staff were most helpful but a special mention to Olivia, a bubbly character who was wonderful, an absolute asset to the House Martin. Get down there and find out for yourselves. I am going back.

Really disappointed, always had great food & experience at The HouseMartin - don’t know what’s happened ! Had to ask for menus as only one on each table ( there were 6 of us), burgers were tasteless & overcooked , buns were rock hard. Service was poor- nobody asked if we were ok - you have to order at the bar now & then go to the bar to pay when your leaving. Didn’t give a copy of the bill .. sausage & mash a bit like a school dinner ! Come on get your act together - you are a great place for the locals & holiday makers - we want to support you but you need to improve !

Went for a Sunday roast meat was very tough couldn't cut it potatoes were hard our meal was not edible. No one asked if our food was OK nothing was said plates just taken away when we paid at the bar we said we couldn't eat our dinner no apology was given just smiled and took our payment. We will not be returning dreadful customer service when this was a Hall & Woodhouse the food and the staff were A1. What I don't understand it still has Hall & Woodhouse signs outside the pub and on their website but the bar tenders assured us it is no longer as it has been taken over

An absolute disgrace of a pub. Went in for a quiet lunchtime drink with my wife. Service was a shambles, took my money, walked away to serve another customer and I was still waiting for my drinks. A local football team then appeared and we had to listen to the foulest of language, along with belching. No consideration of other customers. Not that the pub was that busy, another sign of a pub going the wrong way. The pub was cold with little heating on. They have also flooded the pub with TV'S, it's more like a sports bar than a nice local pub to enjoy a drink in. As a local I will never enter this establishment again. An utter disgrace.

Shocking food. Expensive. Wasn’t worth even half of what we paid. Poor quality. Ordered fish and chips, fish was ‘empty’, with soggy batter. It came with around 9-10 chips. It was inedible. Husbands burger coated in black crunchy bits off the grill. Came with around six chips, no cheese despite paying £1,50 for cheese and he said it was awful meat. Daughter had tomato pasta. It was dried up and stuck together. No sauce. It was supposed to come with garlic bread. It didn’t. They told her a minute before it was being served to her. She had a handful of pasta in the bottom of the bowl. She left hungry. She would have had enough if she was maybe 6 years old, but she’s 19. The outing was £60. Dreadful food and spoilt our anniversary. Really wished we’d gone elsewhere. Will never return and will be emailing to complain. Save your money.

Lovely pub grub. All the classics such as fish and chips, burgers, fish cakes with crab mayonnaise. Book tables in advance as they were booked up on a Wednesday half term evening, until past 8 pm. A longer than average wait of about 45 minutes before the food arrived. But it was worth the wait. Would recommend.

Very clean too - would recommend based on our experience

We live very nearby and decided to have dinner and a drink or two on Tuesday 13th June. On arrival we asked for a table for two and were told we could sit at any table in the main pub area. We took 10 minutes or so to choose from a specials board that had been written by a three year old and the menus on the table which had spelling mistakes (for heavens sake if you can’t spell escalope use spellchecker). I then went to the bar (at 7:25pm) only to be told they weren’t taking food orders. Should have been told when we asked for a table since it was pretty obvious we would be looking to eat. Won’t be going back in a very long time.

Attended on the hoof without a reservation but they found us a table despite being very busy. Staff were very friendly and attentive and made us feel very welcome. Food was very good and piping hot ........can't fault the place to be honest

We visited this very nice pub for a Sunday roast and enjoyed the ambiance. The service was good but the meat was undercooked,we pointed this out and was offered a free desert which we declined as that was not the purpose of the complaint.

Can’t fault this place. Cheap and ok. If you want good stuff, go somewhere lease and pay £100 per person, this was £25 per person and was more than ok for that - I’d come back every time.

We booked to eat here over the phone and when we arrived we felt so unwelcome. We understand that covid has hit businesses hard but it’s not an excuse to make people feel unwelcome. This place needs to do some research as to how other...

Have used the housemartin several times over the years on our trips down south to visit family, always had very good service and meals, but on this occasion I'm afraid to say, we were very disappointed, gentleman that seated us was also the greeter on...

Went with friends for Sunday Lunch very clean and covid safe. Staff very helpful and friendly nothing to much trouble. Although it was Sunday we did not have to wait long for the food to arrive. Everything tasted great. One small concern is that they...

We arranged to meet up with family for birthday catch up, and chose here as near to one of the party living nearby. Obviously the covid restrictions made for a different dining experience, my understanding listening to the media that all hospitality are struggling and...

My husband & I went out on our own for the first time since Oct 2019. We decided on the house Martin as it’s walking distance from home and the menu looked good. Neither of us were disappointed! Couldn’t fault any of it, absolutely brilliant...

We had a great night tonight at the House Martin. Service was excellent and so was the food. The staff were so helpful and welcoming and we had a lovely relaxed evening. Thank you to everyone for making it a wonderful experience.

Lovely atmosphere, the pub was obviously busy but the staff were attentive and working hard. Food was tasty and came out exactly as ordered by my fussy eater. We really enjoyed our visit.

Excellent service from Emma, an amazingly cooked fish and chips and the General Manager was very welcoming, great COVID talk, he’s got a good sense of humour, great red DMs and a lovely bum 😉😁😁

We have been going to the House Martin for years during our stay at a local holiday park. This time we made two visits, one for dinner and one for Sunday lunch. Overall, we were happy. The guy who served us the first time for...

Called here for lunch with family after our dog walk, great location however the service was not good, had to remind the waitress as she had forgotten the potatoes and the mayonnaise to go with my sons fish cake which did seem to be lacking fish.

Tuve dos cenas fabulosas y un desayuno los días que este restaurante recién abierto abrió sus puertas y volvería por la comida en un instante. Además de un gran asado, también tienen un buen menú completo, aunque algo limitado, para elegir. Toda la comida estaba caliente, sabrosa y servida a su debido tiempo, así como un carrito de ensaladas donde podía tener todo lo que quisiera. El desayuno del segundo día fue maravilloso, donde de nuevo es todo lo que querías. No te lo pierdas.

Can't believe our local is closing. There is nowhere else to go that doesn't require driving. Such a shame. Its always busy there and the food is very good.

Have not been to this place for about 6.years and it wasn't great then either. We all choose of the festive menu pre oredered. Turned up to be told one of the starters was not available, fair enough ordered something else, however when thw food started coming out what was on the menu was definitely not what was served on the plate in fact it was less but they still had the nerve to charge a supplement for things that where not there. How this place is still running is beyond me. I will not be returning for a meal!
