We stopped here for Sunday lunch on our way home from the New Forest. We chose a roast which was a generous size with fresh veg, a Hugh Yorkshire and the meat just melted in the mouth. The staff were friendly and service was prompt. Isaac was very friendly and helped choose a great red wine to compliment our dinner. Would definitely recommend a visit to this cosy pub… 🤩

Read reviews before hand that put us off but they were so friendly room was clean needed a little update on decor but I expect COVID has made it hard for the business funds. Food was excellent and nothing was too much trouble had a fabulous breakfast so much choice

Stayed 1 night. Lovely pub but in severe need of a makeover. Rooms very tired. Carpet on stairs threadbare, many grubby marks etc. Food ok but over priced and service very slow and inconsistent as the staff (though friendly) seemed bewildered.

The bedroom and bathroom was a good size but in serious need of refurbishment. Dinner and service in the evening was fine but breakfast was very slow. 35 minutes to wait for bacon and egg (no buffet to pass the time) was ridiculous. Luckily we were not in a rush. Not really good value at the moment but a refurb is promised next year.

We booked a feature signature room only to find it was nothing like what was advertised on the website. The upstairs was incredibly run down. Our room had broken lamp shades, cracks in the wall, furniture just in general bad condition and the bathroom was quite grimey. This was such a shame as downstairs the bar and restaurant areas were in great condition. But the room was unacceptable fir what they were charging and the company need to put some money into the hotel side. The supervisor on shift who dealt with us was incredibly kind and understanding and great customer service all round. We stay in many of the Butcombe hotels as we have a dog and have never had a bad room until now. They have always been the same as advertised. I would recommend if you are planning to stay here, calling ahead making sure your room is what you are expecting before you arrive. As for us it did ruin our trip as we had been looking forward to this stay for months.

We went to the kings head with our son for his 30th birthday. We had a lovely evening and the food was so nice. My son and I are vegetarians and we really enjoyed the food. Staff were absolutely wonderful and really friendly. This is our 3rd visit to the kings head in Hursley and we will definitely go back.

One of the dirtiest hotels I’ve stayed in for a while. Could have written my name in the dust, filthy carpets. No milk or sugar in room, shampoo bottles empty. Run by very young staff and no manager. Emailed to complain but never heard back. Dinner overpriced and poor quality.

Overall a pleasant experience but let down by poor house keeping and a room with a poor view and a noisy fan outside/in the kitchen area that ran all night long! I was assured this would stop at night but it didn’t. So the positives 😃 :- Nice old pub in a very nice village location, plenty of free parking, helpful and welcoming staff and good food. Tip: make sure you join the Butcombe app first and enjoy discounts! 🥳 The negatives 🤨:- Refillable toiletries in the shower were all empty (luckily I carry a back-up shower gel!) and one of the cafetières had a damaged plunger (missing the wire gauze) so was rendered useless. My room overlooked what must be the kitchen back door and as it was a warm night the window needed to be open. I’m not a light sleeper but the fan running all night was intrusive (and probably a waste of energy unless it was for a chiller). Finally like most business people I was up early, wanting to be on the road by 7-7.30am but breakfast was only served from 8am!! 🤷 No grab and go takeaway facilities as an option either. No biscuits in the room.

In fairness, they did say that their main chef had been hospitalised and they had a stand-in. However, the quality of the food was shocking. Where it's approaching £20 for fish and chips, I'd still expect a high standard. The dishes were largely incorrect, options not asked as ordering, and missing from the plate. What was being served was mostly overcooked. A couple of people in our group abandoned the meals. Sometimes it might be better to just say you can't do food that day.

Slightly disappointed with our stay , quaint local pub in the village , staff were superb but waiting an hour for breakfast was far too long and they were severely understaffed... I actually felt sorry for them and the housekeeper helped out the poor lad on his own. Rooms a bit tatty now, bed was soft and heavily worn squeaking away with every movement and TVs didn't work very well. What staff did work there were very supportive of the business but the site needs investment now and the rooms need a makeover with new beds. Unfortunately we will not be rebooking.

Lovely lunch, it took ages to order as we couldn't decide which of the delicious options on the menu to go for! This is a really nice old-style pub located in a very pretty village, staff are efficient but very welcoming. Parking is generous and the pub is dog-friendly which is a huge bonus. Although some distance from me, the Kings Head Hurseley has become my "go-to" place for a rendez-vous and I would thoroughly recommend it

We stayed one night in the Spitfire suite, which was really quirky. The suite had a bedroom, bathroom with shower, and sitting room with tea making facilities. The bed was really comfy with nice pillows, and the shower had good pressure. The hotel has a good ambience with a true pub atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff. We had dinner - fantastic standard of food. We had artichoke soup and pork rillettes for starter, followed by fish pie and pork rib eye with chorizo cassoulet for main course. It was all beautifully presented and tasted delicious. Only one of us had breakfast the next day, but that was an equally delicious eggs royale with the eggs cooked just right. We will definitely return again for another stay.

Nice bar in the pretty village of Hursley. Very expensive for what it is and a pint of Madri lager at £6.75 is a prime example of this? Staff are friendly but seem distant and uninterested. A party of 3 had attempted to book lunch, but due to a problem with staff, their booking was cancelled. They asked the young lady behind the bar if there was anywhere else offering food. She sent them to The White Horse at Otterburn... probably 3+ miles away. Yet, barely 400m from The Kings Head, is The Dolphin? To her credit she did phone ahead and make their booking. As an ex publican I find this to be particularly strange? The prices would likely keep me away from a return visit.

We stayed for 2 nights at the Kings Head. The room was very clean, and well presented, with a comfortable bed, tea and coffee making facilities, a TV, and a decent sized bathroom, with a bath and a shower. We had small problem with the sink not emptying, but it didn’t spoil our experience. We had the full cooked breakfast both mornings, and took advantage of the 25% discount on the Wednesday evening meal. The eating area was pleasantly furnished and decorated, the staff were friendly, and the food was good. Overall the Kings Head is a friendly and welcoming pub, with a nice ambience in the bar. We would definitely stay again if visiting the area.

Subject: A Delightful Reunion and Exceptional Dining Experience at The Kings Head, Hursley I had the pleasure of reuniting with a dear friend at The Kings Head in Hursley yesterday, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Having not seen each other for six or seven years, our 65-year friendship was filled with memories, laughter, and catching up on life. The ambiance at The Kings Head was warm and inviting, providing the perfect backdrop for our long-awaited reunion. The staff displayed remarkable attentiveness and patience as we took our time deciding on our order, making the entire dining experience even more enjoyable. For lunch, we indulged in a superb Camembert cheese dip, a delightful choice that tantalized our taste buds. What stood out was the thoughtful accommodation for my friend, who cannot have garlic – the staff went out of their way to serve her a delicious Garlic bread alternative. It truly showcased the staff's commitment to ensuring every guest feels welcome and accommodated. I was particularly pleased to find my favorite non-alcoholic drink on the menu, the 00 Guinness, which complemented the meal perfectly. The staff's attention to detail and dedication to providing an inclusive menu did not go unnoticed. As our lunch unfolded, we found ourselves engrossed in conversation long after the other customers had left. The staff, understanding the significance of our reunion, did not rush or hassle us in any way, allowing us to savor every moment. I wholeheartedly recommend The Kings Head to everyone seeking a delightful dining experience. If their boutique rooms match the quality of their food and service, I have no doubt they would be outstanding. The Kings Head in Hursley not only delivered a fantastic meal but also created the perfect atmosphere for cherished moments and reunions. Thank you to the wonderful staff for making our visit truly memorable.

Good food, let down by poor service. We felt as if the two young staff members were ignoring us, as it took ages before they took our drinks order then had to wait quite a long time before they took food orders. When the food did arrive, only five out of six dishes were served. We had to find someone and ask to get the final dish served. No one came to check if everything was OK with our meal, and then it took a long time again to get the dessert ordered. Meanwhile other tables had been served quickly. Overall not a happy experience.

Great food, plenty of choice. Good choice of beers. Staff very welcoming and helpfull- 2 members of staff came to help us get our elderly aunt down the stairs. There are a few stairs to get into the pub, there is a stair free access but It was very long and through the beer garden that was too far for my Aunt to walk with her frame. I will be visiting again when next in the area.

Came today for a Sunday Roast with my teenage daughter (very fussy eater) ! The M3 was at a standstill, I called to say we would be late for our booking. The young guy on the phone told me not to worry, I wouldn’t lose my reservation. We eventually arrived (albeit a little stressed) to be greeted by friendly and smiling staff. We were shown to our table and offered drinks straightaway. As soon as the drinks arrived, we were ready to order and they were ready to take our order. Service was prompt, the staff were great. Very accommodating. The Manager (Sam) was very welcoming, and no job was too small. If we needed it, she got it. Will definitely be back again ! This little gem is well worth a visit.

I’ve never met him but I did ask how long the chef had been working here. Apparently a while now and I think he’s a gem of a chef. Amazing food. Amazing service and dog friendly and pleasant all round. Thank you so much.

Overpriced poor quality food . Fish and chips arrived and looked spectacular but for some unknown reason a folded napkin was placed on the plate and the food , including mushy peas , was placed on top of it - why ?? The chicken and leek pie filling was very watery and the solid lump of mash served with it was very dry and completely tasteless .If ordered as a side dish you will be charged £5.50 for this . There also seems to be little knowledge of the correct way to serve an affogatto. A blob of ice cream served in a tiny bowl which left no room to pour over the coffee . We will not be dining here again

Today I was treated to Sunday lunch at this pub by my two adult sons as a birthday treat and wanted to write a review whilst everything was still fresh in my mind. Having read other reviews , I can't believe we were dining at the same establishment but here goes...... On arrival we were stood at the bar for a good 5 minutes before anyone acknowledged us . Staff behind the bar continued to serve 2 locals who were sat on bar stools.We eventually were seated in the beautifully decorated dining area.We were promptly given menus,but it was a good 10 minutes before anyone came to take our drinks order, and another 10 before they arrived. All 3 of us ordered the roast beef which again there was a fairly long wait for, but the place was busy so we just looked forward to it arriving. The plates came out with beef , potatoes , yorkshire pudding etc and the veg came out on a separate plate . Now all 3 of us are slim with average sized appetites, but we couldnt work out if the veg was just for one of us or if there was more to follow. Swede , cabbage and just 3 tiny , tiny parsnips !! A passing young lad , tall with dark hair noticed that we didnt have any serving implements and were just using our cutlery ( didn't bother us ) but he appeared with a pair of serving spoons . That was the highlight and one of the only compliments I can give .I asked politely if that was all the veg or if there was more to come . He wasn't sure so I just asked if there was a chance of a few more parsnips rather than just the one each . Some minutes later another plate of swede and cabbage appeared but no parsnips ! We just got on with it . Roast beef was nice but the rest of it was bland and without flavour. We ordered 4 puddings , mini doughnuts , 2 ice creams and a crumble and a coffee to go with it . The coffee arrived well before the puds and my son had virtually finished it by the time they came . 3 of the puds were fine but my crumble was hot on the very top but two thirds icy cold . The bowl was piping hot so it had obviously been in the oven , just not for long enough. I could have sent it back, but the others had finished and I didn't really want another 30 min wait or so to then eat in front of them, so I just got on with it and left the larger icy bits . Shame as the flavour was really tasty. Other than the disappointing food , our other main point to make was the staff. One older lady seemed more pre occupied with her computer screen than checking on the customers . There was a large party of Italians that left whilst we were finishing our puddings, and another lady began clearing their table .She had to walk past us 3 or 4 times with trays of empties but failed to look at us or notice that we were trying to get her attention to ask for the bill . It took us about 15 minutes to get someones attention and at that time it was 3.30 pm and other than one other table of 4, we were the only diners in the room.At no point during our visit did anyone ask us how the food was , whether we enjoyed our meal etc , not even when paying the bill. to be honest they probably didn't care ! Now , I was worried that I might be turning into a grumpy old woman so asked my son's opinion. The younger one just said 'crap'but the older one said 'poor attention to detail, style over substance' .A really disappointing birthday meal which wasn't cheap.I have friends that have raved about this place so what went wrong today ??!! Great young lad though, he is a credit to you and could teach the ladies a thing or two when it comes to customer service.

Nothing was too much trouble for him or his staff… We stayed overnight with some of our guests who had travelled… Rooms are lovely, clean and the bed was soooo comfy… a large group of us went down for breakfast and again, nothing too much trouble and we enjoyed a leisurely delicious breakfast. I have had so many lovely comments about the party, the food and how attentive all of the staff were. I can’t thank you all enough… may have to do it again next year 😁

This is quaint village pub, but seemed popular with locals. The food was excellent with locally sourced ingredients. The room was smallish but met our needs. It was clean and comfortable.

We had a very successful family gathering in the Watercress Room. The staff came up with everything we asked for and thought ahead for us. Guests commented on what a nice place it was.

Visited a few weeks ago on a Sunday. Quite a boring pub in fairness, not much of an atmosphere was pretty cold in the bar area, and the drinks were average. Can't comment on the food as we didn't eat, but the restaurant was fairly busy. It was more of an eating place, I imagine, as one drink was enough and had no desire to stay for another.

A little gem of a place. A menu with tradititional favourites but also a good mix of non traditional and seasonal specials. The food and staff were excellent, with a friendly social atmosphere. No blaring music so conversation was easy.
