Dreadful inedible food. Mussels shredded and disintegrated. Steak baguette. Uncooked tough awful tasting steak. I have never ever written a review before and never ever in my 78 years had such awful food. Waitress was friendly and helpful. Nice surroundings. Just need new chef

I was a bit concerned last time we ate here. Our table was visibly dirty with crumbs from the people before and, instead of wiping it down with a cloth, the young male waiter decided to just brush the crumbs away with his hands as we sat down. Germs often aren’t visible and I’m pretty sure a food inspector wouldn’t be impressed. My burger was also quite cold when it got to us. A pleasant experience otherwise!

Great location and interior decor. Staff were great, helpful & friendly. Unfortunately food was very average. My burger was ok but not great and my husband had the mussels which so rich in cream & butter he could not eat . So two mains & 2 glasses of wine at £52.00 . Mmmm not enjoyable so sorry cannot recommend &!we will not be back.

We booked a table for lunch with 2 friends. Seated in the lovely restaurant at the rear of this traditional old world pub in Romsey. Service was very friendly and professional. I ordered the sea bass, my wife and her friend had the chicken supreme, and our other friend had the Moroccan chicken thighs, all of us thoroughly enjoyed the food, which was beautifully presented. We will return and sample more on the extensive menu, and would recommend this to others looking for quality cuisine in the area.

Miss-selling and rude! Went to the Olive a month ago and ordered 2 Espresso martinis, the board in the garden showed they were £10.95, when i went to pay i was charged £26 for 2, i questioned it and the lady apologised and said the board is wrong and they will change it. I then went in on Saturday and i ordered an espresso martini from the bar menu which stated it was £9, i was then charged £14 for it?? i question the guy at the bar and he was so rude had no clue what he was doing and said ‘oh it must be wrong i’ll get it changed’ how has it not been changed since the last time i come in? surely it’s wrong to be quoting lower prices on your menu?? i then ordered food and the same guy at the bar clearly had no idea what he was doing couldn’t find the food on the till and put through the wrong items. doesn’t seem like anyone knows what they are doing and they clearly make up the prices as they go along.

Oh dear,how disappointing. Had the steak and "gourmet " chips. Absolutely no seasoning on the steak and cold chips for £18!! And to add insult to injury over £10 for a glass of red wine. Saw a young member of staff sneeze twice into her hands,wipe them on her apron and then serve a customer beer with her hand right at the top of the glass!!!! Hoped we'd found a gem but just another ordinary pub trying to look posh!!! Avoid!!!

I can only assume that there has been some rebranding here as the signage now declares this simply to be “Olive by Nicholas James.” Whatever the case, this is a very stylish and smart bar and restaurant, and although we were only here for drinks it is clear that they still have “pub” as part of their business profile. Service was very good and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to what is a very comfortable and relaxing place to have a drink or two.

First impressions were great, lovely table and decor, however the first impressions unfortunately, were short lived. We waited over 20 minutes for our drink order, had to prompt to then order our food (45 minutes after we sat down) then go to the bar and order our own drinks, and then wait another 45 minutes for our food. The roast dinners weren’t the greatest either, roast potatoes were rock hard and burnt Yorkshire puddings - not expecting the world but when you’ve waited 45 minutes and paying nearly £20 per dinner it was disappointing. My son’s chicken goujons surprisingly looked better! We were never asked how the food was, never apologised for the delay and a complete lack of cleanliness of the ladies toilets, which dreads me to think what the state of the kitchen was. I appreciate it was Mothers Day and a busier Sunday than usual, but sadly today’s experience has really put me off returning, which is a shame because the venue itself is lovely.

Well we booked for our anaversary, 5 days before and phoned again to confirm our booking, wich was OK on arrival we told we would have to wait while a table was made ready, so we ordered drinks and was told there was a nice log fire in rhe lounge, we walked over with our drinks and found the local swillers hugged togeather round the fire wich was really a small gas fire, the place was very chilly, we were told our table was ready, it was at the back of the dining room it was empty of diners , I thought OH DEAR ,as we sat down we were told that 4 items from the mains section were not available, wich included the STEAK, DUCK , SALMON AND SOMETHING ELSE, wich left us FISH AND CHIPS SOME MORROCAN CHICKEN AND SOME KIND OF FISH WITH A SALAD AND A BURGER WITH CHIPS, I went for fish and chips thinking you ant really go wrong with that and the wife ordered the morrocan dish, we sat with our coats on to keep warm , and after40 mins the foid arrived, my fish was really a peice if skin in batter that was in rock hard batter at the ends and soft and guey in the middle, the chips were like house bricks, My wife's morrocan dish was slimy and really unappetising and tast really sickly, she ate a bit and gave up the rest, the sweet was sticky toffee wich was just a cake with some kind of sauce she found date stones in there at least we thought they were,, my chocolate brownie was identical bothered an inch wide and 5 inches long with with the same sauce and a tablespoon of Ice cream they cost £8 a portion YOU REALLY DONT WANT TO GO HEAR , OVER PRICED POOR QUALITY FOOD , WAS GLAD TO LEAVE THE WIFE WAS UOSET WITH THE WHOLE THING, total cost £66 , The place needs a change of management attentive staff, , and a chef who understands real food, VERY DEPPRESSING CAPT NELSON DIGBY RN RTD

After reading the reviews, I was nervous about eating at The Olive Tree. We we there on a Tuesday evening and were only one of 2 tables eating so it was a quiet night but there was still a nice atmosphere. The bar seems limited as there were no non alcoholic gins available which was a disappointment. I have to say though that the food was great. We all enjoyed our mains and desserts and would go again. It does seem that it's a bit hit and miss, but our experience was good so don't let all the negativity sway you.

I went here today for lunch following a wander around Romsey. It was 12.00 (noon) and firstly I could not have a large glass of wine as they did not have a measure for it and secondly was told that the kitchen was very busy due a large number of bookings. Following a check with the kitchen, it was okay to order immediately - I was on my own so this was not going to be a large order! The food was good, except far too much onion in the salad, and I was enjoying a nice relaxing lunch until 3 young lads came in and sat near me. Their language was not great with quite a few swear words and one of them was vaping - which I didn't think was allowed in pubs/restaurants.

Really disappointing, took my mother in law out for a nice meal. They had very little left on the menu, service was slow and not very warm. We ordered Espresso Martins which were served in a wine glass. The bill was over £150 and I wouldn’t recommend. I rarely put negative reviews but this was very disappointing.

Environment lovely, Staff and service very good hence 2 stars But the food is appalling. Had the Sea Bass with Rice. Fish was well cooked and the veg too but the whole dish was cold because it was served on a cold plate. The Sauce was the only flavour that could be tasted because it was all emerged in what seemed like a packet sauce . The other meal was Prawn Pasta. Again cold and the sauce tasted like a week Heinz spaghetti hoops sauce which again flooded everything with the same flavour. We were hungry with limited time so we ate most of it. Was going to pay and just leave but they did ask how it was. So we told them. Took £20 off of a £44 bill. Nice gesture but we definitely won't be back ever. It wasn't even worth £24. Try to improve and let us know when you have.

Rude is an understatement…I have never met bar staff quite like it. I was completely shocked by my visit to this place. Being told by staff they could not serve particular drinks even though the bottles were on the shelf, cold coffee (eye roll when I asked for a fresh cup), staff are argumentative and extremely miserable, and to top it off, I had to wait over an hour for an item from the menu (after being told most of the items on the menu weren’t available). If you value your time, money and sanity, stay far away from this establishment!

What a shambles! One member of staff that couldn't cope with taking our 5 was taken from their memu, and when he handed it over to his 18 year old colleague, she completely messed the order up! When we told her, she argued with the 3 of us and would not have it that she had made errors with every part of the meal. She then went off, and the chef/manager came out and told us that we had upset his member of staff. We were not rude, and no voices were raised. All we tried to do was tell her she had got the order wrong. The chef/manager would not accept that errors had been made. All he could focus on was his member of staff, who was apparently in tears! To our surprise, a couple of local men that had clearly had too much to drink decided they wanted to get involved and became very aggressive towards us, to a point where one of their girlfriends had to drag her fella outside because he obviously wanted to fight! This could have all been avoided if the waitress had said, "There must have been some confusion with the order, and let me try to sort it out. Instead, she argued with us, in front of other customers, and caused what could have been a quite serious situation. We visit Romsey on a regular basis. This is one place we absolutely won't be visiting again! However, If you're looking for a "punch up", it's well worth a visit!

Great atmosphere until after 9pm when the music was so loud we were all shouting at each. Food service was fine. Food is good and choices had plenty of options. Good selection of beers and lagers. Friday night night has 2-4-1 cocktails.. I think daytime, like Sunday lunches, it's the best for grub, drink and chat without shouting.......

Oh dear ! I have used this bar / restaurant many times and normally been quite happy with the experience.However this morning I called in with a friend and ordered two hot chocolates. We were told by the girl behind the bar that she could not “do”hot chocolate as she had not been trained . We were incredulous at hearing this information! However this being the case we said that we would settle for lattes instead . These were duly brought over to us . Both were tepid verging on cold - unbelievable . Next time we meet up in Romsey we will be giving our custom to one of the numerous coffee shops in the town .

When I ordered I was told it was actually only from 6pm and when I mentioned the sign I was told "Well the sign is wrong".

Went for Sunday Roast 18th June , very disappointed with the whole meal. Customer service was non existent and when we mentioned about the food they just wanted to blame the chef . When we arrived it took sometime for the staff to take our food order, it was not until i asked did anyone take the order after some 15mins, at no point did they ask us how our meal was . The person we assume was the manager on duty did not take any responsibility for the service. This is such a shame as in the past we have had an amazing Sunday roast with fresh veg/ stuffing etc. Will not be going again . Would not recommend unless there is a change in service and food quality.

Being generous here. We ordered starters and mains and they all came out at the same time. When I questioned this I was met with “oh you wanted them separately?”… the starter was meant to be a duck salad instead it was half a cabbage and a smattering of duck shavings, not worth the £9! Burger was average but the fries were ok. All the staff were either trying to impress their potential suitors or openly complaining about their job. Wont eat here again.

The Sunday roast was dry and tough and the pork was cold, the potatoes were not good and there wasn't enough veg on the plate. The pudding was tiny for 8.50 it was shocking to be honest. There was no asking if everything was OK during the meal and there seemed to be a lack of attention in general. I wouldn't return I'm afraid.

Phoned and was told they don't do reservation on a Friday in the bar. Sat at a table where the neighboring one had a reserved at 1930 sign on it. Sort it out please.

Beautiful decor helps give a relaxed and pleasant environment. Staff service was efficient and friendly. Did not eat during this visit so I can review the food.

Service was unreasonably slow (took 45 minutes to be served a starter). Got order wrong with drink (given small glass of wine instead of large as asked) and a main (asked for no cheese and given cheese). Food was nice although massively overpriced (main of "Chicken Supreme" was just chicken and cost £16!!). Didn't really seem like custom was wanted. Thoughts were shared by the table next to us and it was not busy at all.

Intially looks good, walked in and didn't have any ale working, or draft lemonade/coke. Lad behind the bar said 'ill pop to the shop and buy some', only after we mentioned having none. Glasses for wine at the bar and all the tables are all dirty, as if they hadn't even been though the wash, bar didn't seem prepped for service. No care from staff, really gone down hill as it used to be such a positive place for a drink.

Food was OK but not special for the price, service was average but them they added a service charge. I should decide to leave a tip and i should not be told how much to leave. I asked them to remove it and left without leaving one. I usually always leave a good tip but to just add it is just rude. Sorry but i wont be returning....

Just wanted to say how amazing our Sunday lunch was today. Absolutely first class and I would say the best I’ve had for a long time.

Ordered food from Stax and Snax and received a burger that was completely undercooked and pink in the middle, on complaining was told to bring it back for replacement even though I had it delivered. Offered to refund the burger and replace but only if I collected. Disgusting service, please check your food before eating if ordering from deliveroo or any other delivery service.
