Cosy, tidy and clean are excellent starts for the Old House. Menus is quite limited and my burger was very wet, just dripping oil which makes for messy eating. Service was good, could have been more friendly but remember this isn't a restaurant. I would eat here again.

Expensive poor quality food.. The food at this pub is not good quality. Poorly presented, clumsy in fact. Ordinary toasted sliced bread with the olives and Trout Gravalax .. Mussels were appalling so was the cream sauce, totally tastless.

Nice warm welcome. Food here is always amazing. The smoked duck starter is my favourite. All our food was great, the steaks were really nicely cooked which is often not the case at other venues. The local Longdog Brewery beer was excellent and well kept. The only thing today was that the service was a bit slow, but we all ok with it as we had a good catch up. Can't wait for our next visit. Thank you to the lovely lads serving us today.

We popped in for a light lunch. We hadn’t been here for years & years. We had a very friendly welcome from the young staff & were seated immediately. My husband adores pies (I don’t) so he chose the beef & ale pie (which he said was exceptional). The vegetables looked great too. I had the fish cake which was absolutely delicious as were the vegetables & creamy sauce. The staff were friendly, welcoming & very pleasant - we will certainly return before too long! We will make a reservation next time to ensure we get a table.

What a fantastic find! We’ve just had a really delicious meal- mains of steak & ale pie, sirloin steak and pheasant wellington - all wonderful & finished with a chocolate brownie. Courteous & helpful staff. We can’t recommend this enough. Thank you for one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time.

What a disappointment. Having been coming here for several years we've just had a terrible Sunday lunch, followed by even worse service. My roast beef was very poor, chewy and tasteless and the potatoes were very undercooked and bland. I managed four or five mouthfuls before giving up. When the waiter came over I very politely mentioned this and she was extremely apologetic. Another waiter came over and mentioned that the meal would be taken off the bill, and that they'd had other complaints. So far, so good. I understand that sometimes things go wrong, and all a business can do is apologise and offer to put it right. However, when I went to the bar to pay the bill I saw the roast beef still on there and mentioned this to the man who had printed the bill. He explained that the meal wasn't removed from the bill, but that they'd removed 25%. I explained that I'd not eaten 75% of the food...in fact I'd eaten hardly any, but his response was "this is how we deal with complaints, 25% off". He was very dismissive. Putting aside the fact that I'd been told it would be removed from the bill by another member of staff, this approach is astonishing. I ordered a meal, didn't eat it because it was so poor, and was still charged for 75% of that meal. I'm afraid this pub has lost a long term local customer because it wanted to save £15. What a shame.

Came here for a nice dinner with my grandparents. I had the daily soup (tomato) followed by the venison lasagne special. Both of which were exceptionally tasty. I then had the chocolate brownie for dessert, which was nice and soft. It was a great dinner out, and I will surely come again.

We have tried to find somewhere as good so that we do not end up at the same place each week, but cannot! For years we have been going out for Sunday lunch every week, and have tried most places in the area, but always come back to what is by far, the best! We believe that with proper gravy/yorkies and cauliflower cheese, with plenty of other vegetables and a good portion size of meat, all of a good quality, together with superb service, makes this place consistent & unbeatable!

This is relatively local to us and we've been a few times and never been disappointed. The service was good with cheerful waiters, the food was excellent. We are mainly vegetarians so there were about 4/5 choices which is good. As a pescatarian I chose the fishcakes, they were excellent, full of a variety of fish instead of heaps of potatoes like other places. This came with green beans, not one of my favourite but these were so good, and covered in a lovely creamy sauce. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will return again shortly. Thank you.

This family run pub is perfect for a cosy dinner. My partner and I have eaten here twice and have been blown away each time. The food is all locally sourced and they do brilliant seasonal menus. The service is amazing, the staff are so friendly and accommodating and service is quick but not rushed. The value for money is excellent and you can tell everything is cooked fresh and to a high standard. I had the duck salad starter and fishcake main, my partner had the trout gravadlax starter and liver main, all cooked to perfection. We will definitely make this a regular date night.

This pub is a real gem situated tucked away at the far end of Newnham Green near Hook. We booked a table for 4 and received a very warm initial welcome and truly excellent service throughout our 3 course meal. The food was unremittingly excellent and our party is not easily pleased! They have some creative choices such as batter-free fish and saute potatoes and a sharing plate for desserts if you just want a small amount of sweetness.

We pre-booked a table for 9 a couple of months in advance for Christmas eve. We specified that we would have 2 small dogs and were told they were dog friendly. Upon arrival the Manager was so so rude. She told us the dogs were not welcome for a large table of 9. We tried to explain that we asked for dog friendly upon booking but she did not care. The waitress was absolutely lovely and so apologetic. She seemed most embarrassed by the Manager and also very fed up of her attitude. Despite the table being at the back and out of all other customers way we had to drive the dogs home. A huge inconvenience. The room was SO HOT and the service was very slow. The food is over priced. Won't be going there again which is a huge shame as its a lovely little country pub. If the Manager could change, things would no doubt improve. I tried to give the benefit of the doubt that perhaps it was a one off bad day but I've seen other very similar experiences via reviews on here. Besides no excuse to be so vile to customers esp as it wasn't even our error. I saw they were advertising they are opening a sister pub in Mortimer. I won't be going there either now.

Myself & 9 friends, booked for a 1pm Sunday lunch. When we arrived, we were told that we had made a mistake & weren't booked until 2pm. This wasn't possible, as we always book for 1pm on our monthly Sunday lunch gatherings, but with no proof, we left it at that & chose to wait outside. When we went to order drinks, we found the bar area to be extremely small, with most of it shut off by a screen. We got told in an abrupt manner, by the manager to 'move out of the way as they need to bring plates through' so we asked where we are meant to stand to order drinks, as this was the only space & we received no answer. We went back outside, the manager was rude again when we asked if we could order & sit outside instead, telling us that we would have to wait as she had other guests, then she moved a large umberella alongside the table, resulting in it snappy in 2 & hitting my friend on the head. The manager was then more concerned for her umbrella than my friends head being hit. We eventually ordered, some of it was cold & had to be sent back, some of it arrived with half missing & all food was just shoved onto the table with no customer service at all. My friend went home with a large headache & felt dizzy, so her daughter rang the following day to ask if it had been reported in the accident book, to be told that its only for staff & not guests, & when asked why they hadn't asked after her Mums wellfare or even taken her meal off the bill, she was told that the incident had been alot for the manager to deal with. Myself & my friends have been to many restaurants for sunday dinner & always had wonderful service, so this was a dreadful experience all round. No after care for assaulting a guest with an umbrella & not one apology. We will not be returning sadly, as it was a beautiful pub & lovely setting.

Fabulous as always. The staff are lovely and friendly. Good choice of local real ales. The menu and the specials board is comprehensive and varied, which makes it hard to decide, great desserts too. The smoked duck starter is a must. The chicken liver pate and the halloumi starters went down well. The mains were fabulous, calves liver, lamb murger, mackeral and smoked haddock fishcake, followed by delcious puddings, which you can have in small or normal size which is handy. The potion sizes are generous, so make sure you are hungry. Will be back again.

Had the mixed meat Sunday lunch. My wife had the same. Both meals were great, so was the service. I would definitely recommend coming here. Looked at a few of the negative reviews and they seem to be based on the pub not offering the services the client was looking for. Well that’s the pub owner prerogative what they will and won’t cater for, and no reason to provide a bad review when they haven’t even tried the service the pub does offer. Great to see this pub up and running. Will definitely be returning soon. Thank you Old House at Home, you proved us with a lovely lunch today. Also, Dylan dog says thanks for the bowl of water and saucer of treats.

My partner and I came here for dinner. It was absolutely lovely. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the staff were quick with our orders. The most memorable bit for me was their chips! Just like my dear grandma used to make them. Absolutely delicious! We...

Highly recommend this pub, the food is excellent and the staff friendly and helpful. It is easy walking distance from Tylney Hall where we were dating and has a wide range of food.

Probably one of the best pub meals we have had in a long while. Excellent menu and food with really friendly staff. It also paid good attention to Covid issues and felt very safe but welcoming too.

What a fantastic family run pub. Nothing is too much trouble, great food and amazing service. I had moules mariner followed by rabbit, both from the special menu. I wish I lived nearer so I could visit again.

Eight of us visited The Old House at Home yesterday. All of us thoroughly enjoyed the food and the beer/wine. Service was excellent and all the staff were professional and friendly. We will definitely be back!

Visited again with family as we wanted to take them to the best restaurant in the area. Food was excellent again, my wife's pie as full of meat as always. I went off the Specials board for the Calves Liver, there was almost too much,...

The sort of place that feels homely and welcoming, where you can just sit, relax and enjoy the moment. Lovely food served by lovely people in a good old traditional english country pub. All without the loud music or TV screens that seem mandatory in...

I only live a few miles away but had never ventured here for a meal. This weekend with friends we gave it a go. So glad we did. Everything well organised with regard to COVID. Nice little snug area. We were given a little time...

Six of us dinned here last Friday 11th June while on a weekend away. The food and staff were excellent. Probably the best pub food I’ve had. Wish there was somewhere as good as this nearer to home.

A British country pub at its finest: Fantastic food and fantastic service. The sharing board made for a great starter for two, and the mains were perfect. Couldn’t ask for more!

Such a relaxing atmosphere to enjoy wonderful food. The portions are generous too. This is family owned and you can see the attention to detail in the freshness of the ingredients, and the care in the cooking and presentation. Highly highly recommended.

Just eaten our take away dinner from Old House at Home. It was all truly delicious, the fish stew was a tour de force and the STP yummy. Looking forward the next collection.

Wow! One of the best pub takeaway meals by far and you have to try it for yourself. Amazing oxtail stew and dumplings by far and looking forward to ordering again. Great service, high quality ingredients, tasty, delicious and served hot!

Update: Popped in for a lunchtime drink today. Lovely pint at a reasonable price but £14+ for a large glass of Rioja is a bit steep. If you want two glasses or more, but a bottle. Lunchtime visit. Nice pub just off the A33 but in a village location. Reasonable size car park. Good selection of beers and larger (Youngs pub). Food is good but the menu lacks any real low-carb options for diabetics. Some veg/an options. Excellent service both at the bar and seated. Large beer garden with tented area if it's a bit damp outside. Pub is popular, esp. at weekends but you can book tables online (advised).

We had a lovely pub meal and the service provided by Jo was excellent this evening. I definitely recommend this country pub which is only a short drive out of Basingstoke 👍
