We visited as a family of 4 midweek, staying in the local area, a bit more of a drinkers pub but the lad behind the bar was very pleasant and happy that we wanted to eat. Good food and drinks at reasonable prices. We would have stayed longer but the free wifi didn’t work or our data, we have one teen thats addicted to her phone!!

Booked a family meal for the Wife's birthday - table of 5 with 2 teenagers. On booking the table for 7pm, we we're advised that there would be a quiz nght on but we should be ok as it started a little later. We had a lovely meal Pork belly, steaks, and the catsu chicken burger was brilliant!! As we tucked in the quiz host was setting up and everything was going well...... As you can imagine it's not often we have the teens sat round the dinner table and we were having a few laughs reminicising about funny events and generally having an enjoyable time.... until the evil quiz master stomped over to our table as we were finishing our deserts and very sternly said " can you guys try and keep it down as I'm battling against you over here "..... now baring in mind this is a tuesday evening and the quiz was in the Restauraunt side of the Inn.... I feel a little put out that he found it uppon himself to address a paying customer in tis way.... I felt it importnat to point this out to you as I think you need t move te quiz into the bar area.... makes more sense.... The waitress ( sorry didnt catch your name ) was fantastic and apologised.... I don't think we will return which is a shame but I'm very much a once bitten twice shy kind of guy.... I also didn't appreciate the glares of the quiz punters on the way out but I think this was becasue iI asked the evil quiz master what his problem was whilst he walked back to resume his very important quiz which I'm sure generated more profit for the business than my £156.00 table bill.... I wish the business every success and hope this feedback is helpful. all the best JJ

We always go to the Nelson when we are on holiday at Hoburne Park as it is dog friendly and has a good selection of gluten free food. This time was as good as before. The staff were helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. We came with my parents (we are in our 50's) and the staff were patient and very accommodating re our different needs. The food was great. We were all really happy with our food and we found it great value for money. We will be back next time we are on holiday here. The only thing that could improve it would be to have a gluten-free desert that is not just ice cream - but that would be an added bonus, as the starter and mains were fab.

Amazing Sunday roast. Really delicious selection of meats with a wide variety of delicious vegetables. Amazing Yorkshire puds and roast potatoes. Option to have 3 meats which is a good alternative for those who like carvery. Friendly and efficient service. Would definitely recommend. Only thing we wouldn't recommend is the cauliflower cheese, which, considering its charged as extra was not cooked well with a very runny sauce.

Lovely pub. Poor food especially for the price. Main point would be the rude and loud bar manager with black hair. Shocking behaviour and language especially with my young nephews with me. He insulted me and my family multiple times. I’m all up for a joke but a time and a place should be in context. Such a shame and we won’t be going back if he’s there. Your pub will lose out because of people like this.

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch at The Nelson. Very reasonably priced and quality was excellent. Generous portion with plenty of beef which was beautifully cooked. Gorgeous roast potatoes, crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. The Yorkshire pudding was huge and didn't disappoint. Service was also outstanding, friendly and helpful, particularly as it became very busy. The desserts were not over priced for the quality and were delicious. Will most definitely re-visit this fantastic Pub. Big thank you to the Nelson for making my friend's birthday meal very memorable.

Have eaten at this venue many times mainly on Sundays. The roasts were loverly. We thought we would visit mid week and try their new menu. We first noticed there were no chicken dishes. There were no vegetables on the menu or option for veg as a side. Queried this and the lady went to ask the kitchen, she told us the menu was new and still in its infancy, however they could serve is some cabbage. The Pork belly was flavoursome but fatty. The slow cooked beef brisket although flavoursome was difficult to eat, the meat was stringy and matted and difficult to separate. On the whole disappointing.

Pork belly was delicious and so juicy with extra crispy crackling on top, potatoes were fluffy but crispy, Yorkshire pud was good and bot greasy. Only thing I would have like more of was the veggies, but I did remove the red cabbage. Dessert was delicious too! Great atmosphere inside, lots of dogs allowed! Would recommend!

We visited with our family for a big event this Sunday. We loved the experience. Staff were informative and helpful. We wanted to order our drinks at the bar due to separate tabs, staff were very understanding. When it came to paying the bill, staff split it effectively and quickly. Food was incredible, we loved it. Incredible pate to start and a delicious pudding to end. But the highlight was the roast. I had gammon and my partner had pork. Both were cooked to perfection, roasties were crisp on the outside and fluffy inside. The red cabbage was the highlight, it made an already amazing meal that much better. Overall such a good experience. Thank you Nelson team!

The roast was £16.50 the roast potatoes were not crispy hardly any veg paid extra £3 for cauliflower which I didn’t realise was an extra cost when we ordered other but it did say extra on the menu.The meal was lukewarm and the yorkshire pudding was cold. One plus was the beef was very nice and plenty of it.The restaurant was untidy dog bowl and tissues on the floor and not very pleasant surroundings a bit like sitting in a hall.Won’t be returning very disappointed wouldn’t recommend very average

This being our local pub we have eaten here many times and have had fantastic meals. However on this occasion I was very disappointed. The restaurant was not very busy for a Friday night. 4 tables of people, but the waitress service was very poor. Took time to come over to us, and when she did come over, she was chewing gum and talking to us at the same time. We had to get up twice and order our drinks from the bar and carry back ourselves. The real problem we had, though, was our food. My friend and I ordered from the special board the minted lamb kebabs, barbecue chicken wings, and sweet potato fries. It looked delicious when it came, so we all tucked in. We commented on the chicken wings as some were huge and others were small started on the smaller ones, which were fine, but when we went on to the bigger ones, they were raw and uncooked in the middle. We immediately found the waitress and asked to speak to the chef or management, who eventually came over, and we explained the problem. It was the chef, and all he said was well they are pronged with a gauge before they came out and were fine. You could see blood coming out of the middle of the chicken. We refused to pay for the two main meals which they took of our bill and they did offer us 2 free desserts as well which was a nice jester but I am sorry a professional kitchen sending out raw chicken is not good. The waitress was very arrogant, rude, and chewing gum and we did notice another table while we were there having problems as well of ordering desserts and coffee then the waitress came back to them 20 minutes later and said to them sorry I forgot. The thing which really annoyed me was they allow well behaved dogs in their pub and restaurant which I have not got a problem with but when you see the waitress sat on the floor with the dog all over them licking her face and hands jumping all over her then she gets up goes into the kitchen comes out straight away with plates of food for other people that is not right

It's easy to see how we're losing so many pubs. They have to try to be everything to everyone. I love this place, but look closely and the improvements to the building are only skin deep. The garden area is excellent, with ultra wide sliding doors out from the pub for those balmy evenings. And the inside has a real pub feel. Nice. Parking limited (not their fault), and quite slow service - but all in all excellent

Went here purely on the reviews, I must have been reading somewhere else. Very loud. Re kids plus dogs barking at each other at the tables. Ordered 2 x steaks which were very poor quality, got the wine we wanted eventually, The restaurant was tatty at best and very over priced for what it is being a local pub with an extension on the back of it. God knows how this is highly rated, go there and enjoy it! but for us our vote is with our feet as much better options in the area.

We took our little girl for an unplanned birthday lunch today at the Nelson. As it was her special day she fancied something that wasn't on the menu so we asked the management and he promptly sent one of his attentive staff to the shop to buy the ingredients. Now if that isn't service i don't know what is! Friendly, helpful staff, massive portions of yummy food and a fabulous atmosphere!

We've visited here in the past and had a wonderful experience. However, this visit was a bit disappointing. We had booked a table for 5 people for 6 pm. On arrival, it took us 10 minutes to find someone to show us to a table. We had been seated for at least 15 minutes before our drinks order was taken. Then, another 15 minutes until the drinks arrived. Our food was ordered and delivered in a timely manner. I ordered the beef burger, and I requested mine with no chilli jam. When it arrived, it had the chilli jam on it. I immediately summoned the waitress who took it away and bought a fresh one. Also, the slaw that came with the meal had an odd taste. Several other diners agreed and could not eat theirs. In addition to this, they had a female singer performing there, who had a really good voice, but she was so loud that we couldn't hold a conversation. Her song choices were very good, and we would have enjoyed it if it hadn't been so loud. I think that we would visit again, but I would choose a different meal and ensure that there will not be any singers performing.

A good place for a good Guiness and a decent meal. Met up with a couple of business partners, it was ideal.

Can’t stop thinking about the food which we had on Friday night. It was absolutely delicious. Defo my new place to go. The flavours were amazing and the service was great too. Shame they had no coffee left which would have finished the whole experience off nicely, but all in all we loved it and we will definitely be back. Thank you.

Not sure how I’ve managed the last few months during the impromptu shut down of the coffee shop. I work nearby and send all my clients here for the best coffee and service in a clean and inviting atmosphere. I also use the cafe daily for my lunch time coffee and occasionally lunch or a snack; sometimes with friends or colleagues. All the staff in Waitrose Christchurch are wonderful but particularly Graham makes my day with his warm welcome, unrushed but efficient service and gorgeous soya lattes. The average age of resident in xchurch is 65 and it should not come as a surprise that any supermarket offering cafe services is a particular draw to our residents. Please don’t close down again!

Great Coffee shop. Great staff team and nothing is too much trouble. Very clean including the toilet facilities. Ample room and free parking outside. All produce of goods quality. Can be busy at times but worth the wait.. Even if you do not drink coffee. Update, new staff from last time, still as friendly and quick. This place could do with a self clear station. The staff work hard enough as it is.. Still a favourite..

Fuimos para el almuerzo de domingo y tenía al asador. Nos quedamos muy decepcionados con la calidad de la comida en nuestra última visita. Había variedad muy limitada de verduras y hortalizas que había, estaban cubiertas en una salsa de crema fuerte de degustación.
