The Townhouse in New Forest

Popped in with a couple of friends and tried their lunch club menu - which was great value £12-50 for two courses or £16 for three. In fact unsure how they managed to make any profit at those prices. Food tasty, nice log fire to welcome us. Staff friendly and attention - all in all a pleasant lunch with girlfriends. Sounds as though the weekend Beer Festival (28/29th Sept)will be fab - may pop along

We're on holiday in Lymington and this is our second visit to The Town House. The food was lovely and our server, Lily, was charming, attentive and very lovely. We had a great evening. We always say that it's not only the venue, or the food, but the people you meet on the way and she made our evening perfect.

Lovely dinner, great food and atmosphere. We were a large table and service was great. Really friendly staff, would 100% recommend.

Recently had a private party here, great venue. Staff will go above and beyond to ensure you have the best time! Whilst hosting our party, they also had live music next door, the whole place was buzzing.

We were recommended the Townhouse by a lovely lady in a shop and we were not disappointed. Had an amazing Roast Dinner and quality wine. Staff were so welcoming and friendly.

very good Sunday lunch ,beautifully presented food .staff very friendly ,would definately recommend .pub recently decorated to a very high standard ,seems very popular with locals [which we are ]would recommend booking to reserve

I met a friend here for their Thursday ‘Locals’ Lunch’. It is great value at £12.50 for two courses. I chose Mushrooms on Toast followed by Spaghetti Bolognese. My friend had Prawn Cocktail and Sea Bass. Service was good. We’ll happily return. .

Returned to the Townhouse slightly earlier on a Saturday evening than last time. So glad we did, not overly busy which meant excellent service. Last time, service was a tad hit and miss due to the venue being extremely busy. I had the kofta starter which was very nice. This was followed by the stir fry (wife's choice) and pan fried Hake main for me. Both were excellent and worthy of the price charged. All washed down with a lovely bottle of wine. The Townhouse isn't cheap, but when they get it right it's worth every penny. If I have one very minor moan, it's the fact that the seats are not very comfortable. I unfortunately suffer from a back problem so comfort means a lot to me. We will obviously be back at the slightly earlier time in the future.

We should have realised when we walked in on a Saturday evening and the place was empty, that this was not going to be a good experience. One of the starters ordered was Corned Beef Hash. The dish arrived and it no way resembled or tasted like Corned Beef Hash. Inedible. It was grey, dry and didn't actually taste of anything. In fairness this was returned and deducted from our bill. Beef Bourguinon was tasteless and obviously not freshly cooked. We guessed it may have come from a tin. I ordered a Wagyu Burger. A prime cut of beef. Unfortunately this was THE worst burger I have ever eaten. This came with slaw. A strange purple/grey colour, with an even stranger taste. Our whole group were completely underwhelmed and disappointed with our food. Prices are not cheap. We are more than happy to pay for food which justifies the price, but this was a rip off. Maybe the chef was having an 'off day' Saving grace ? Our waiter - not sure what his name was, but he was Welsh and charming. Would we return ? Absolutely not.

This is one of three establishments owned by the same person (The Lighthouse in Milford and The Cliffhouse in Barton on Sea). This is the more relaxed of the three with the option of sitting at the bar and enjoying a drink, eating in either the bar or restaurant, sitting outside in their tiered and well appointed walled garden and enjoying the sun in the summer. Really good pub food. Enjoy the fire in the winter, live music at the weekend and German style October Bier Fest which is great fun. Lovely staff, everyone welcome. Sunday lunches

We visited the townhouse for my husbands birthday with friends, we had the Xmas set menu and it was absolutely outstanding! Service was great and a birthday thoroughly enjoyed by all.

A group of 26 had lunch and everyone enjoyed their food, service and venue. The staff managed the group with efficiency and professionalism

Wasn’t expecting anything overly special but OMG, the food was outstanding. It was generous in size, piping hot and delicious. The service was impeccable and our server, Ryan looked after us so well. We will 100% be back. Thank you.

We took our friend for her birthday lunch last Thursday and it was delicious, 2 of us had the Beef Bourguignon which was lovely, and my husband had the Pork Belly, ( he's still talking about it ) which he said was the best he'd ever tasted. All the vegetables were very tasty and the meals were nice and hot which some restaurants don't seem to do. Deserts of Apple and Blackberry Crumble were a good size with nice pieces of apple and proper custard. All in all a really good lunch with excellent waitress service, thank you.

All four of us enjoyed our evening. Good food, nice atmosphere and lovely waitress Sapphire. Reasonably priced too!

We came here for our anniversary and they certainly made us feel special. On arrival a small glass of bubbles to congratulate us, and then a lovey dessert board with ‘Happy Anniversary’ beautifully written with some brownies. Such lovely touches that made us feel special. The pub itself was fairly central and had a live band playing in the pub (we were there on a Fri night and saw another band was there on the Sat too) so good atmosphere. I had a delicious macaroni cheese and my husband the hake … mine was delicious and my husband said his was average. However the service was excellent, the atmosphere really good and it was a good place to go - we’d definitely go again. Thanks for a lovely evening

We've lived in Lymington for almost 18 months and have been sampling the Sunday Roasts at as many places locally as possible. The Townhouse is relatively new having been refurbished recently. However, what makes the difference is the Sunday Roast. We all had different one's and none of us were disappointed. The meats were well cooked, the vegetables were not boiled to death, the stuffing was fresh and the gravy is to die for.

Great meal for five today pork and beef was superb. The Sullivan clan enjoyed all of the dishes. The star of the show was the gravy and cheese board

There isn’t anything to fault with the Townhouse, contrary to other reviews here. Like their sister restaurants in Milford and Barton the staff are nothing but friendly and very helpful. This is our fourth visit, first being just for drinks and sat out in the garden. Second trip again sat out in the garden and ordered a sandwich to share, this was plentiful between two. The third visit was with family and our waitress Eleni was very friendly and funny even if my dad was a little cheeky with her. Food was served, nicely presented and tasted delicious. Last night was just myself and Hubby. He ordered the Jerk Chicken Burger and I had the Chicken supreme fricassee, again nicely presentation and both were delicious, and not that we had room, but we had apple crumble and sticky toffee for pudding. Yum! Both left, feeling stuffed and satisfied. Like anywhere you go, everywhere is pricey! But we don’t mind if you’re getting the service, presentation and tasty food.

Excellant food service and atmosphere. Lots of starters, mains and puds chosen by our group. Ryan was very attentive and friendly.

Good food, excellent service, pleasant surroundings. Have been a few times now so felt time to put my thoughts to paper. 1st time was a simple sandwich but it was lovely. Sat in the garden with the family and all very pleasant. The only downside...

Pre booked online for the Thursday Locals Lunch, thought it would be a nice taster of what The Townhouse had on the menu. The ‘Locals Lunch’ menu had an uninspiring choice of two starters and two main course. We saw the main courses being served...

After seeing a review about coming here after having a bad experience down the road. We booked for Sunday Lunch. Great taste and portions and very attentive staff Especially Eline very helpful and she knew her stuff.

We had an excellent meal here with first-class service. We both had seafood, and both dishes were cooked to perfection. Great Meal!

Amazing meal at the Townhouse this week. Not been before, and it has recently been completely renovated inside. The staff, atmosphere and food were first class. Will definitely be visiting again.

Lovely place, very welcoming (especially Ryan!) with a great menu and super service. Good wine list (a few more French or Italian options would make it perfect...) and the burgers were excellent. Lovely atmosphere, and nice decor. Family visited recently too, and said the live...

A nice new addition to Lymington with great food and fast service. The friendly staff were very helpful.

The Townhouse was formally known as the Saltern, we'll ignore that period in the pubs history because frankly it would be a waste of my time writing it and your time reading it, let's just say, in the most polite dignified way, not good. Prior...

We had a great evening at The Townhouse last night. The food was great, my fish pie was one of the best I've had and the Scampi and fish and chips were given good reviews by my friends. The staff were really helpful and friendly,...

Fab locals lunch menu Light feta, olive and tomato salad / chicken liver parfait starters followed by chicken in mushroom sauce with tender stem broccoli and fondant potato, great service and wine to top it off

17 family members booked the TH for our daughters 16th birthday as a surprise, nothing was to much trouble, the service was impeccable and the food was incredible! Nothing was too much trouble and we were made to feel very welcome. Thank you TH team.

Wonderful food and service. We were taking advantage of the locals lunch and it did not disappoint. Eleni gave us great service and made us feel welcome and was really friendly. Will be back to try full menu for sure.

First time at The Townhouse although have been to the others - Cliff House & Light House many times before....went with family for lunch & had the locals menu....it did not disappoint. The food was delicious, better than expected. Service swift and our server James...

My friend & I had such a gr8 meal. Lovely atmosphere in the restaurant & live.music in the bar. Menu choice was gr8 - could have eaten 2/3 things off starter & mains easily. Ended up choosing the lamb chop which was divine, especially the...

Great pub. Good beers on and generous food portions in the sunny garden. Kids were made to feel welcome. Lovely staff too. Great to see some live music in Lymington too!

Great refurbishment, lovely staff, great food and varied menu. Lovely outside area. Will certainly return!

This new addition to Lymington is a real find, good food, amazing transformation inside with a cute courtyard if you’re a sun worshipper, the atmosphere is vibrant and friendly.

Pleased to see an excellent refurbishment of this pub restaurant . The background music was far too loud, the waitress did eventually get the volume lowered. When you can’t hear the person opposite you at the table speaking - not good. The roast beef was...

Have been a few times. Just what Lymington needs. Great atmosphere and music and great service at the bar from Harry. One of the best espresso martinis I’ve ever had and excellent wine recommendations. Looking forward to another.

Lovely Sunday roast here today! Greeted by happy staff members, quick service and really good food. Chefs were also happy to make slight changes to our meals on request which some places won’t do on a Sunday. All round brilliant experience will definitely be back!

Nice menu, something for everyone. Bread was stale, wagyu burgers were average but the chicken burger was nice and juicy. Service was fast. Staff missed a dish off the bill which I picked up on after having paid. I mentioned it to the waitress and...

We had a good experience despite a few tiny things. Service was great and the food was good, The menu is what you’d expect from a upmarket pub, I had pate and jerk chicken burger which were both really good but my desert looked a...

A reopened, nicely refurnished restaurant. Staff are very polite and friendly. It was quite busy on a Sunday afternoon so it’s worth to book a table. Didn’t have to wait long for the food to be served after I ordered them. Food is nicely done...

Visited for dinner last Saturday, lovely to see the restaurant full and there was a really nice atmosphere. Food was excellent, beautifully presented and tasted great! Portions were huge and the Ardennes pate starter was big enough for two to share. Friendly and efficient service...
