The Old Drum in East Hampshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The worst customer service I have ever experienced. They don't seem to know what they are doing. I booked a double room with breakfast back in Feb 24 for the 15th June 2024. Unfortunately I had to cancel this and rebook for another date. Luckily I kept all correspondence relating to this because they called me on the 15th June to ask what time I was checking in. They didn't believe I had cancelled and said I would be charged. I sent them the confirmation twice before they agreed to not charge me. No apology though! I then got an email to say they were also cancelling my July booking because the price has increased and they wanted me to rebook at the higher price. I told them to shove it, there is a Premier inn down the road that was cheaper and way easier to book. Awful place.

Staffs are nice. Good vibe. I Recommended.

Nice room, but noisy above the pub below. The room comes with tea, coffee and a Biscuit. The bed is super comfortable and it made for a great nights sleep. On the other hand, I wish that I had read the responses from the owner on this site. It speaks volumes towards their attitude. You stay here at a premium price. With that price you expect a premium service. Rude, abrupt and disrespect, topped off with a poor attitude. All this and I paid a pretty penny for the pleasure! The customer is always right. I won’t be back here.

A wonderfully welcoming spot right in the center of town with a warm fire, delicious beverages (both beers and the coffee is exquisite) and great food. The rooms as cozy and you really feel like the place has been there since the beginning of time. That said, the rooms feel fresh and clean and the beds are comfy. While currently not dog-friendly, we understand there's plans to bring some rooms online which would allow four-legged guests to be as welcome as the two-legged ones.

Comfortable warm and friendly place for an evening drink with friends and family. Thanks Chris

Great venue for a friendly welcome and comfortable drink with friends and family. Thanks Chris

We ordered a salad which on the menu contained chickpeas and feta. When it arrived it was a nice mix of salad and as I ate it I discovered there were no chickpeas or feta in the salad. In fact no protein of any sort. We queried it with the waitress when she eventually showed and she said query it with the manager on your way out. The manager although acknowledged that they had no chickpeas or feta refused to do anything about it as we had finished the meal in spite of not being advised that these ingredients were unavailable at the point of order. There was no apology and we had prepaid. Will not go back again.

Really nice place and a great pint

We visited the pub about 4 o’clock, nice decor but unfortunately my friend has a nut allergy we asked at the bar if Some cakes had nuts in. Bing from a waitress point of view You should’ve realised that your customer had a nut allergy or even confirmed it with a customer, the cake we ended up buying had walnuts in it. The cake was labeled incorrectly and was labeled as a different cake. My friend started to flareup, we didn’t have to get an ambulance out due to having medication. We approached the manager and just seem to argue with us that my friend should’ve had a card on her, and putting it back on the customer which is unacceptable. We didn’t ask for a refund as some of the cake had been eaten but wanted to make the manager aware that this is dangerous. She was extremely defensive and argumentative and made it out like it was my friends fault, even though she had asked.

Lovely place, nice breakfast and friendly staff. Highly recommended

Great coffee/beers. Staff are great, but the owner is extremely rude and unprofessional.

Didn’t stay here, just popped in for a beer after getting off the train. Wish I hadn’t bothered. 3 cask ales from The Long Man Brewery- appalling condition, couldn’t even finish the tasters. So went for Guinness that was poured so badly it didn’t have a head.

I stayed at the Old Drum which is a quality Pub which has guest rooms above. I stayed in Room 2 and could not have been happier, from the quality of the fixtures and fittings to the elegant décor and bathing products. I had one of the best sleeps, the mattress and the bed itself were extremely comfortable. The overall service was great, I would highly recommend a stay.

Wow, this place is perfect, such a lovely venue on a cold winter's day, the red wine was served at the perfect temperature with quality nibbles too

A pub that calls last orders at 9pm on a Friday night… The owner blamed it on a restricted licence and lack of willing staff. The staff blamed it on the owner… A shambles. What was once a great drinking establishment, is now a part time public house.

Owner is extremely rude, no keys and wrong code was given so couldn't get in, and they have no one to contact at night if anything goes wrong.

Such tasty food and friendly, helpful staff. A lovely environment. Will definitely visit again. Plus a perfect coffee. Fabulous.

Excellent breakfast. I would only change the bread to a fresh sourdough. Everything else was absolutely fabulous. Great service as well. Will be coming back for a dinner as food is really promising. Not to mention the interior and the garden makes it the best looking gasto pub in the area. Well done!

Great pub and we had a lovely evening, however the very next day the owner was incredibly rude and abrupt to my wife when there was no need. I will NEVER set foot back in this establishment.

Unfortunately a very disappointing experience with the attitide of one particular member of staff. Horrendous people skills and very abrupt. Having staffing issues due to covid should not excuse how you treat customers. Such a shame as pub was lovely atmosphere.

I chose the Old Drum as a special treat for my partner and I to celebrate our first Valentine's together. From beginning to end of our stay we were not disappointed. The staff and in particular Luke, made us feel very welcome. Any requests which we made were handled in a professional and courteous manner. We left feeling truly spoilt due to high quality products and food at the inn. We both would recommend and look forward to returning in the near future.

A little while ago my partner and I met with another couple for brunch at The Old Drum. We had never eaten here before but I always liked coming here for a drink as it's a very nice pub with a lovely garden. Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience. My friend and I ordered the overnight oats and my partner the yoghurt & granola. The overnight oats were tasteless and made with turmeric (didn't say on the menu) which gave it a strange taste, not enjoyable at all. My partner's yoghurt came in a tiny pot, with another small pot of granola and a jug of milk (????). When we said that we didn't like the overnight oats (both of us) the waitress got extremely defensive and said that it's a special recipe from Devon (I believe) and everyone loves it. Also, we should have asked about the ingredients. She was quite rude and kept walking off as she was very much on her own in the restaurant. She was pretty stressed out but that's not our fault. We eventually ordered some toast and jam instead which was ok apart from the fact that when we asked for extra toast she brought us nasty white bread rather than the nice sourdough that we already had on the table. We did not have to pay for the overnight oats so that was positive but I definitely would not recommend this place for brunch. I doubt I'll be coming back for food.

First time I've been there. Nice a cosy. Nice food and a nice atmosphere. Went for lunch but it looks a good place for coffee or alcohol.

Such miserable and unhelpful staff. Not only was I disappointed I witnessed other customers having the same issues. What happened to the customer is always right? Or even some basic hospitality training.

I stayed here for 2 nights. Great room, clean and very well appointed. The location is perfect for exploring the lovely market town of Petersfield and the likes of Chichester, the Fishbourne Roman Palace, which are about a 30 mins drive away, plus the glorious South Downs countryside. I did all 3. The beer choice in the Old Drum is really good.

The Old Drum is full of atmosphere and a great way to start the day on beautifully made coffee and a freshly cooked breakfast The staff are truly welcoming and attentive. My father went here 60 years ago after playing cricket on the Heath and although you are aware it is old, it has been refurbished to a high modern standard. A true find.

Emailed ahead to book a week in advance for my partners 30th birthday, the staff member informed me just to 'walk in' as they were not doing bookings. To my horror we 'walked-in' like advised to find the establishment CLOSED! Totally ruined the special evening as spent 2.5 hours looking for another place. I later emailed my concern, considering maybe it was unfortunate circumstances such as covid as to why they had closed- but actually no, I was just argued with- VERY rude and unprofessional. Just an apology or explanation would of cleared this but now sadly, we will not visit.

My recent visit here was only noteworthy because - more than once - I had to ask to be served with a drink. Although the staff were busy, it seemed that I was invisible to them. Training seems an obvious requirement.

I ended up at The Old Drum at the last minute when the place I had booked had unexpectedly closed down. Although not expecting anyone, my room was lovely: warm, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The staff were unfailingly friendly and helpful and the breakfast was great. I also had an evening meal from a currently limited menu, presumably to do with kitchen spacing issues, but which was very good quality nonetheless.

Asked for a Sunday roast for vegetarians. Was told it was possible. What wasn't made clear was that there would be no gravy... apparently it is against the principles of the establishment to not make anything on site. A port wine reduction is easy enough. When, who I can only presume is the manageress asked how the food was and we mentioned it was dry she then launched into a tirade about how she had made it clear that they didn't do a vegetarian roast... all while we were trying to eat and all after she had offered us one on the phone. If this is the case then don't offer one. The components of the meal were lovely, but so dry. As a British citizen a roast dinner is an institution. OK... we didn't have meat and some may consider this a crime, but as a whole meal there are standards that need to be met. It is worse to have a roast without gravy than to not have a roast at all. To then have someone keep on and on and effectively ruin what was left of the 'meal' was the final straw. As a result of this incident alone I never wish to return to the establishment. I do not expect to be argued with as a paying customer Disgraceful Rest of the staff absolutely lovely Such a shame

Positives - downstairs pub is stylish, in a good location and the young staff are all v friendly and smiley. When we asked for additional towels or to borrow the iron they were attentive and helpful. Breakfast is decent too.Negatives - the 'Deluxe Double' that we booked was not deluxe. This was the terminology on Booking.com, as well as the website itself. Whilst the amenities were suitable and yes the bedroom/bedroom were decorated, the size of it was tiny. My partner and I stayed in Room 1 'Maze', and the pictures you see online are hugely misleading. For two (normal-sized!) people to move around the room wasn't easy. And this is all before mentioning the blind for the window that looks out onto the outdoor terrace doesn't come down all the way, so changing isn't ideal and you are unsurprisingly woken up by the sun! I appreciate it's been incredibly tough for the hospitality industry this year (which I repeatedly said to the owner when I flagged these issues), but I still think it's fair to point out the Old Drum expectation vs reality was a let-down. Owner was defensive (and bizarrely told me it's something I should pick up with Booking.com myself), though it half sounded as though she'd take my feedback on board. Having read other reviews it sounds as though Room 1 'Maze' is the worst room, so I hope for future bookings the hotel are a little more honest and fair with its pricing and advertisement (and maybe see if you can put in a request for a different room if you are interested in booking).

Walking towards petersfield station I noticed the pub on the corner and immediately thought how lovely it looked from the outside so decided to nip in for a pint. The pub was just as lovely on the inside. Only stopped in for a quick pint but the service was great - definitely intend to sample the menu at some point in the near future.

Ambient venue- didn’t matter that we were early - could go to our table and relax with a drink and menu- inventive seasonal choices with delicious vegetarian food and relaxed yet excellent service.

Poor start as the table had two dead daffodils in the vase. The Sunday lunch was pretty good (although I recommend serving the veg separately). But the temperature of the room was really, really cold. Our table was in front of the log burner - which was not lit!Sorry guys but you need to spend money on heating your restaurant!

The rooms have clearly been recently re-furbed & are lovely. Amazing value too. Really enjoyed ourselves

Haven't been back here for a while - and the change in ownership has clearly resulted in some changes, not all for the best. The re-decoration looks pretty good and the pub has an attractive appearance. We were hoping our visit on a freezing winter's evening would be enhanced by a warm fire (I am sure they used to have one on the go during the winter) - but alas this was not working. Our server explained it was "blocked up".The menu was fairly limited - just 3 or 4 choices for each course and steep pricing also. We paid 18 each for a fairly small lamb main course which was nice but over-priced. The wine list prices were even higher - typically in the £28-40 range which seems crazy for a pub restaurant. Service at 10% is automatically added to the bill - another "London" thing that's spreading out across the rest of England. Overall a pleasant evening but we won't be rushing back to spend over £70 on just two main courses and a bottle of wine anytime soon I'm afraid.

Wonder if this place has changed hands. Two young members of staff struggling to cope with very few customers. The beefburger which promised much had a processed cheese slice with the rustic chips barely cooked. The chicken escalope was good. The toilets were dirty, with the sinki in the ladies loo was bunged up. The disabled toilet was also dirty and unkempt. Today is Saturday and the last recorded check was Thursday. Really poor show from this place which used to be a little gem not so long ago. Incredibly mediocre, two small wines, one burger and one chicken escalope, just under £42.00.

I have been to this establishment a couple of times over the past few weeks for food in the main restaurant. It was incredible. The food is just superb with something for everyone. The service was second to none, a great bunch of people who made you feel very welcome and were attentive at just the right times withour being over bearingExcellent, highly recommended.

Nice pub, good drinks selection. Food good too. Centre of town to easy to get to by train, bus or car

New management... Grim redecoration.. Ruined a good pub..

A lovely old pub with lots of history. Apparently H G Wells used to frequent here which is commemorated by a blue plaque on the wall outside. The beer selection was OK although I decided on a Guinness. The beer garden is quite nice and we were wondering whether it used to be an old coaching inn. A nice place for a drink.

We stayed one night, room and en suite were of a good standard. The website refers to a "full English breakfast" but fails to mention that you have to pay extra for the components of this breakfast! Sausage, bacon, mushrooms all attract extra charges. This spoiled our stay. Please change your website so people are aware of this and not induced into booking with you on a misrepresentation.

Can't fault the nice staff great food and friendly atmosphere

I returned to the Old drum having paid for my room and taken the key to my room during the day. On receipt of the key no one had informed me of the need to back at the hotel by 10 pm .So on returning at 10.08 pm I found myself shut out on the street! !!!There was a scrap of paper left on a door informing me to call a mobile number, l was told to walk down an alley and go to the back of the pub and let myself in ! There was no light to see the keyhole!!!! How rubbish a service is this!The hotel rooms are lovely, but you absolutely should not be in the hotel business if you cannot welcome and assist your guests.

We stayed 2 nights in the family room. The room was spacious and well equipped and really well decorated. We had a really nice full English breakfast both mornings and were happy to pay a little extra. We parked in a car park just behind the drum which was a 2 minute walk. The staff were really friendly.

40 minutes to bring some lukewarm soup and still forgot butter for the toast. Disappointing. The chef was standing in the bar while apparently our food was being plated up after we complained. Really not deserving of another visit.

Great choice and lovely courtyard

My family and I went here on Saturday for my grandpa's father's day meal and we were unimpressed. My mum and her fiance were regulars before and have always enjoyed it, however I believe there recently has been a staff change and it has changed the dynamic completely. Our waitress was lovely that was the only positive. However, our empty glasses stayed on our table for our whole meal and we had to ask for salt and pepper. Our food was ok but not worth the money or something to rave about. My mum had sea bass which was £18 but was the tiniest meal ever. And the market vegetable side was a handful of asparagus that they ended up taking off the bill. They also accidentally added a bottle of malbec onto our bill which we never had. I always thought this pub had little atmosphere and this experience showed that wasn't the only problem. My mum and her fiance will probably refrain from coming back, which is a shame as they used to love it.

Just want to say thank you to the Chef and all the team at the Old Drum, we had a great lunch, the food was gorgeous, best in Petersfield!..... We had no wait!...... we also had some very nice French Rose wine....naughty but nice!

Why is it that pubs don't seem to train there staff properly.Not well organised at all and when the food came it was just about edible,in spite of asking for the steaks to be rare they were not and at £25 pp I expect more.Yet again a long delay between ordering and arriving.This pub needs to wake up and shake up and train the staff properly as it is really not good enough as the standard dosn,t justify the prices.

First visit to Petersfield and stopped for something to eat and what we thought was going to be a coffee ... until we saw the array of Gin’s on offer!

Great atmosphere, nice beers. Garden is very pleasant.

I booked to stay at the Old Drum on my wedding night - the pub has rooms above it. Unfortunately when I arrived they were closed (despite the fact we arrived well before their closing time). We spent nearly half an hour outside in the rain trying to get in before we had to try and find somewhere else to stay - all of this happening in the rain on the night of our wedding! When we contacted the pub the next day they said we had lied (despite evidence to show we phoned them multiple times) and that they would still be charging us for them room - and that if we had a problem with this we should 'see us in court'. It later emerged that the staff closed early. Obviously awful customer service, but above all this, just really not very nice to treat people like this! I'd be very wary about booking here, and to think about whether this is the kind of person you would like to give your business to. There are lots of lovely places in Petersfield. Avoid here and try somewhere else.

We have stayed three nights and been very happy. The room is well decorated and the bed very comfortable. Lots of hot water in the shower!

I took my girlfriend for lunch at the Old Drum on Easter Monday. We had beautiful food and a lovely bottle of Rose de Provence - we arrived at 1pm and left at 7pm - what more can I say! Great staff and a nice atmosphere, highly recommended.

Older hotel with smallish rooms but very well maintained and spotless. The rooms are over a pub but we had no trouble with noise at all. Good breakfast. As only 5 rooms staff is very responsive. We had a great stay and will stay again on next trip. Lovely,

A friendly bar in Petersfield, good wine selection and great food, highly recommend for couples or groups, variety of seating areas to suit all types of gathering. Definately worth a visit

Arranged to meet friends here for Sunday lunch. Found it a bit strange that we had to confirm with them the day before, whether we wanted roasts or not. Booked a table but it was actually quite quiet in the restaurant. The decor is lovely and it suited us that it was quiet, as we had a lot to catch up on! We'd all pre-ordered the roasts - two beef, one chicken and one vegetarian. They were nice but not outstanding, however, the vegetarian was lovely. It was a sort of stuffing/dumpling and was very tasty.

It's okay but as an enthusiastic ale drinker I would not recommend it.

We’ve been going here regularly for a while and really appreciate the great selection of beers they do (especially pale ales) - a great place for beer lovers. During the summer the garden is wonderful to sit and drink in and the winter, there is a fire (that they need to light a little more often). Small and cosy this place gives a proper “pub” vibe and staff are always very lovely.

Family room, clean, very comfortable, I would go so far as to say luxurious. Fully equipped bosch kitchen, v comfy bed, crisp linen, waterfall shower, water replenished daily, smart TV, an endless yummy breakfast made to order, an army of young men running the place with no fuss. The pub is lively so a bit noisy and there is no parking, so you will need to pay for the town car park directly behind the pub. However when you are in the smartest pub in town which sells rhubarb gin and real ale and has rooms equipped with shower caps and scrunchies in neat packets, bathrobes, soft towels an induction hob with a whistling kettle, a nespresso machine and soft-closing drawers; who cares?

We booked 3 nights at The Old Drum and I expressly said that as my husband was on crutches we would need to eat in each evening. On going down to dinner on the first evening, a Thursday, we were told the kitchen did not open on a Thursday. The following evening we had dinner there and although the service was a bit ramshackle the food was quite good. However we were woken 4 times between midnight and 1.30 am by loud voices in the kitchen below our room to the extent I had to go out and ask them to be quiet. The smell of cooking from the kitchen permeated the room to the extent that I felt quite nauseated. On Saturday morning we decided we really could not bear it any longer and checked out arguing that we would not pay for the third night as the conditions were unacceptable. We signed a credit card statement for £245 but were given no receipt. On receipt of our credit card statement we found two extra payments had been taken without authorisation. We would not recommend staying here.

The food was absolutely delicious. They have a choice of European cuisine. You have to try the chicken schnitzel with absolutely devine onion potato salad! The chef gave us a little sample of a goulash he had been cooking and fellas I command you to go there and enjoy it! We would be definitely coming back to The Old Drum that's for sure.

Visited on the back of an ad hoc recommendation.

We went to the Drum on New Years Eve for a nice quiet relaxing meal before the bells and we were not dissapointed. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was great, it was warm and the staff very friendly, they could not do enough to make our evening enjoyable.

Good vibes, good service and food is excellent, well recommended

Service and manners of staff generally good, although I did pay for a bottle of wine with cash and stood for some time waiting for my change only to eventually realise the barman had disappeared off to do something else and forgotten me totally!

Lovely Sunday lunch with friends, good quality food, albeit a limited menu (Christmas menu, without Turkey a welcome change). Good wines and attentive staff without being intrusive

We went with our friends last Saturday for our xmas meal and it was a delight. From start to finish just excellent. The food was incredible and you wouldn't expect this in a town pub in Petersfield. Friendly and efficient staff, no waiting time and delays. Every one of us was very happy and we can only highly reccomend this restaurant.

We stayed over night in the Old Drum before a family event and had a very pleasant stay. Our room was quite small but very well decorated and furnished, and the quality of the bed and fittings was excellent. Super large tv and great selection of interesting books. The bathroom is tiny but equipped with a fantastic shower ( one of the best I have had in a hotel for some time).

Family meal out. Never been to the Old Drum before yet walked past it many times.

We used to really like the Drum - good atmosphere, cheerful service, fun place to be. So it's with a heavy heart that it has to be said that it is less fun than it used to be, that the service levels have dropped right off, and it's no longer a "Yes! Let's' go there!" kind of place. Come on guys, back to your former glories please!

Nice vegetarian options, relaxed atmosphere and great location. Nice interior design and friendly service. Good place for coffee too with friends.

Met friends for a drink about 17:45

walk in with 6 of us for sunday lunch - surprisingly very quiet .

We went here for a family Sunday lunch as they were doing roast dinners again. Previously they had been amazing. So were looking forward to this.

Booking and check in processes were easy, and the barman/receptionist was very helpful and polite. The room was well presented and comfortable.

Please be warned when making a booking for this hotel via their website. They have a completely flawed booking reservation system and are clearly struggling.

Pretty pub on main street in Petersfield - had a great historical feel about it, very atmospheric and nice garden area. Perspective on it as a B&B; however was a bit different. We stayed for four nights in August while attending a wedding. We had previously phoned several times to confirm the rooms would be accessible for a 90-year-old woman with mobility problems. Well, no chance! Unfortunately it appears that the staff member (Patrick) had since left.

Stayed for one night in room 4. Not overly large. Nicely decorated and

Beautiful bedroom & divine English breakfast!

We booked in for one night in the family room. None of us could believe just how beautiful the room was - the decor is amazing, it was massive, had a great ‘feel’, the shower was top notch, great Telly, dual aspect, Victorian fireplaces...the list goes on. Very friendly staff and the breakfast was great too. Can recommend without hesitation.

We came for a family meal and were not disappointed! Decor inside and garden/patio area is beautifully designed. Staff very friendly and made us feel welcome. The food was fresh, seasoned and well presented. We will be back!

Very disappointing, poor choice of food and appalling service.

Five of us went to The Drum for drinks and something to eat.

I came here with my daughter on Saturday 7 July 2018 for some beer and lunch. The Old Drum has improved a lot over the last few years. it is posh and classy inside and out. The beer garden is a big patio with lots of concrete, but also lots of greenery, so it has a nice outdoor feel to it. inside looked good too. Good selection of beers and interesting food on the menu. My only complaint is the cost of the food. My daughter had very tasty cold soup and some crunch bread for £6 - not bad. But I had a pasta and asparagus main course for £13, and it was more like a childs portion - very tasty, just not much of it! I guess quality isn't cheap. But even so, £13 for a half a bowl of pasta in sauce is a lot of money!

Nice staff good food lovely atmosphere

Surprising little gem in the town centre with a lovely Mediterranean style beer garden

Went for a family evening meal and it took an hour and a half for the food to come! It was 10 pm before we ate. None of the staff apologised or updated us. A dreadful experience, we will not be going again!

Our family visited this restaurant for a special occasion and it looked a nice cosy place.

We spent one night in the old drum. The staff were very friendly and the quality of the room, decor and breakfast were wonderful. Our room named charcoal was small, if we stayed again we would insist a larger room.

On the website it said pets welcome, we added in the notes bringing 2 dogs. They contacted back and said they only have one pet friendly room and it was not available and so could not accommodate. I requested refund but was refused even though they could not provide what was advertised.

I have to say that the a lot of people recommended us the place, but them and us were kind of disappointed. I think it was a really nice place and something happened. It was empty and even if we were the only ones there, they took a lot of time on getting the food. We don't know what happens to the place, maybe we went in lower season, but it looks amazing, sadly out experience wasn't.

First time we tried this place and were impressed, food was brilliant! Lamb was delicious! Only downside being that we couldn't get a table for a second visit as they were fully booked!

The rooms here are very tidy and stylish with comfortable beds, Nespresso machines, and modern TVs. The showers are excellent; as good as you’d hope for in a 4 star hotel.

Recently came here for a Sunday lunch with some friends and I have to say, we were blown away.

I booked a single room for two nights several months in advance, as I was attending an event at Goodwood. No confirmation from the hotel was ever forthcoming, even though I called a couple of times to check that I was actually booked in. On arrival I was asked to pay before seeing the room, not something I approve of. The room, Fern, was very nicely appointed, with a very good bathroom, good shower and quality toiletries. The bedroom had a Nespresso machine, kettle, and a quality TV with Apple Tv. All good so far, only small issue was that the radiator was hanging off the wall, as the bracket had become detached.

We have had a few good meals here and the quality of the food is excellent. I prefer sitting in the bar area or outside (weather permitting) as the lighting in the dining room isn't right - it's just too bright. Once they have sorted the lighting out, I'm sure we will visit more often!

My dad and I popped in for a quick lunch, the atmosphere is very nice and chilled. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, I can’t recommend the fish finger sandwich enough, and anywhere with such a vast gin selection can only ever be lovely in my opinion. The nicest lunch I’ve had in Petersfield for a very long time.

My wife and I stayed with our 10 month old baby girl and not only was it an entirely negative experience, but the attitude of the staff was actually concerning. Conscious it is a pub, we enquired both in writing and verbally upon booking whether...
