The Vine at Hannington in Basingstoke and Deane

It’s a real shame as we have been here before and it was brilliant. Unfortunately, it has really gone downhill. It took 1 hour and 20 minutes for the food to arrive, and it felt cold inside with no heating. To top it off, they messed up my order with my burger. Disappointing experience overall!

We attended a wedding reception at the vine. The service was great with friendly helpful staff. There were good spaces, both indoors and outside with plenty to occupy the children.

Update 15/9/24: It's great to see the place open and serving food again (the new owners still need to update their writeup here on Google; as their website has dosappeared). The chalk noticeboard outside also made it seem the place not open today, but it was. We enjoyed their tasty burger as well as the scampi. There's a good pub food selection on the menu, but just 1 beer was on tap unfortunately (Adnams Ghost Ship) - it was well conditioned and went down well. Nice touch to see baby changing facilities in the gents. Good, fair prices and friendly service. We're looking forward to coming back again after another superb countryside walk. Original rating writeup: Perfect halfway point for rehydration on our circular walk from White Hill. Friendly staff and nicely conditioned ale.

Thank you for a lovely early evening meal and drink tonight. Highly recommended as a good stop for walkers, just a mile from the wayfarer’s. We really appreciated your warm, friendly service, as well as the lovely real ale, bacon and beef burger and scampi! We wish you all the best for the future. Please everyone support this ‘proper’ country pub!

We had a lovely Sunday lunch at The Vine. We were a large party and staff were so accommodating for us. The food was great and came out in good time and the kids loved using the outside space too. We'll be back!

Terrible customer service rude staff slow service wont be returning

Staff handled an emergency situation brilliantly. Thankyou.

Excellent food, very friendly workers.

Great country pub with a beautiful spacious beer garden - they had an excellent Namibian barbecue on when we were there

DO NOT SEEK WORK HERE!! THE PEOPLE WHO RUN THIS PUB USED TO RUN A PUB IN BLOXHAM AND NEVER PAID THEIR STAFF CORRECTLY AND LEFT THEM WITHOUT NUMEROUS MONTHS WORTH OF WAGES, LEAVING PEOPLE WITHOUT MONEY THEY NEED TO PROVIDE FOR THEIR FAMILIES WHILE THEY WERE LIVING IT LARGE! SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSE WHERE! ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING AND VILE PEOPLE

Scenic location with a big garden and interior high on the north Hampshire hills. Recently reopened, friendly staff. My visit was a lunch stop having arrived on 2 wheels through beautiful cycling country.

Great, shame it's closing. Make certain to visit when it reopens.

This is a very nice country pub set in the Hannington village. Nice food and pleasant atmosphere. Friendly staff. Dog friendly.

Good lunch venue during a walk on the Hampshire Downs. Due to close in February

We ate here as a family. Two party members have gluten, lactose and dairy intolerance. The vine attended to us all so that we could have a great dining experience. Well done the Vine.

Lovely location high in the downs. Great food and garden. Best enjoyed on a nice day but atmospheric none the less.

got to be tje Best Burger & Chips we have had for a long time.. well done, keep it up 👍

Went for a nice quiet pint, only to find a load of kids running around screaming. No sign of any parents, and no interest by any of the pub staff to try and find the parents.

Fab garden, food, staff. After finding this lovely pub we will definitely be back.

Sadly, the food quality did not match web reviews 😕

Lovely place in the middle of nowhere. Very clean toilets and bar area. Staff were very friendly and efficient. Will come back. ❤️

Roast dinner was really really good! However only thing preventing a 5 star is that the service was very slow and the conservatory area was very hot with no fans.

Popped in for a quick lunchtime drink and something to eat. Couldn't decide on the ham or cheese ploughman's until the barman said we can do a bit of both! Great friendly service in a nice relaxed atmosphere. A good old fashioned country pub, nothing is too much trouble and the staff are actually pleased to see you, unlike other pubs nearby.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was good but it seemed to take an age to arrive

Great food and service, very good value

Great food fast service,friendly and welcoming staff. Dog friendly. 🐕 large garden area.

Excellent burgers. Lovely beer garden. A great place to relax

Nice comfortable village pub.clean...food great Love the log fire. Fantastic place for walkers to have a drink also cyclist who enjoy the benefits of lovely countryside

A great place to stop off at the end of a walk or bike ride. Great food range!

Lovely, welcoming staff. Fabulous location. Good facilities. Highly recommended!

Nice welcome, good service and nice beers. Didn't have food, so only gave four stars, but will be back to try the menu.

Excellent food and service for a party of 20 for Christmas evening meal on 15 Dec 22

Excellent food great value for money .... lovely country pub and great atmosphere.... if you have never been it's well worth a visit

stunning burger and home cooked chips Saturday. stunning pork dinner ans sticky toffee pudding Sunday... see you guys next year again

Food was delicious and they were very accommodating of our 6mo old

Always the most pleasurable place to visit after a long walk in Hannington. Staff very welcoming and friendly, food great price and very tasty and we love all the vegan options available. Cosy in winter and a lovely outdoor area for families in the summer. Highly recommend! If we lived closer we'd be in there all the time. Great find!

Lovely country pub very accommodating, lovely friendly staff.

Great food and service at my cousins birthday party

Great pub - great food, great value and great service. Lovely setting too.

Great service, good beer and food, nice shelter outside on the hottest day ever.

Beautiful setting, excellent food

What a lovely pub, in an amazing setting, probably the highest pub in Hampshire. The staff are delightful and very helpful. They have a good range of beers, wines and spirits, and an excellent menu. The portions are particularly satisfying, although be specific what you order, as we got a pork pie on a veggie dish ! However it didnt go to waste 😂

Service & food were great. Bar staff very friendly and nothing to much trouble. Food was a great price, however like every pub these days beer was £5,90 a pint. Will visit again, as dog friendly and a lovely pub.

We had a delicious game pie as a takeaway last night. During 2020 they provided a well-managed Covid-safe environment when the were allowed to remain open, and great meals by takeaway when they had to close the doors. #supportyourlocalpub Update July 2022 - another homemade pie which was lovely. Enjoyed sitting in their large garden, with the benefit of shade from their large gazebo.

It's a perfect place to take family and pet dogs to. Always injoy my time here. Nice country pub very friendly and bar staff are friendly. Food is perfect.

Lovely pub, great food and friendly staff

An excellent country pub, great food, great beer and very helpful and considerate staff. Large garden and plenty of space. Well worth a visit.

Friendly and relaxed atmosphere with great food in a rural setting

Great pub, good food and beer! Only downside is the narrow country lanes to get there, but so worth it 😃

Nice lunch..place you can take dogs.

Litter.....devastatingly awful food. I've never written a review in my life. And I've actually written this...which makes me sad. Over cooked steak. Zero seasoning on anything. Litter

Cozy little pub in the English countryside. 🏡 Delicious food & drink. 🍻🍔

Lovely lunch. We visited from Solihull whist seeing family. Really friendly staff and delicious lunch. A great pub!

Nice little pub in a beautiful village. The food wasn't great, but the atmosphere was nice and the staff were really friendly, polite, and attentive. The pub is wheelchair accessible, has good facilities, and offers plenty of outdoor space with a climbing frame, slide, and swing to let the kids loose.

Great food pleasant staff and they allow dogs

Could be a standout pub as its location makes it well suited to capturing a gastro pub clientele, the tables were busy having Sunday lunch but it was understaffed so bar service was slow and only two cask beers (Doom and New Speckled Hen). Exterior shows the impact of loss of trade during covid and I hope it is able to recover. Plenty of garden space and tables with a small tasteful play area so good for families.

Nice location and reasonable atmosphere but food merely average

Good food and beer. Situated in a good walking area.

Traditional pub and pub food, friendly staff, Walker, child and dog friendly,

Nice food, lovely place to sit in the sunshine in the conservatory.

Went to The Vine at Hannington 5th March 2022 for our daughters 14th birthday, We have a sen child and from the moment we got there he wasn't having it and had a little wobble. The staff was amazing as interacted with him and allowed him to speak what can take a while for him to get what he means out. The food was amazing and during the meal my son wanted another drink and decided he was going to go and order from the bar, again the staff was amazing and patient. Just amazing staff and place will be coming again.

Going out for Sunday lunch is getting expensive, but we was very please with the Sunday roast, we had the lamb, although a little tuff in places, but you get that with most meats from time to time, the beer was good and so was the price at £14, will definitely go back.

Very friendly and great service . Lovely pub .

Pleasant place with helpful staff. Food is ok but not exceptional. Has been better in the past

Always fantastic friendly service. Varied menu with vegetarian and vegan options. Fab steak and chips, a proper treat.

Great pup to go on walks from, we went on Christmas Eve and the staff were so helpful and friendly even right at the end of the Christmas period! There is also plenty of outdoor seating if needed so I’d really recommend it.

Always lovely for a walk and pub lunch

Vine of Hannington were the tops. We had a Christmas celebration for 25 people and it went flawlessly. Absolutely brilliant service.

Lovely country pub, just as you imagine with sofas in front of the fire. Had a lovely table in the bar area in front of a bay window, fab food and good service.

Very good all round, all staff in masks, made to feel very safe. Very good food good menu's, also a good selection of beers.

Lovely place, lovely atmosphere

Exceptional prices,, and very low standards unfortunately. Or put another way,, top class restaurant prices for greasy spoon meal deals !!. Dont bother. Service is good with friendly staff, really let down by the food quality.

Lovely food and service. Will definitely visit again.

Excellent service. Well organised. Good food

Acceptable typical pub food which is of good quality. We will eat here again. When we wish to eat restaurant level fare we'll eat elsewhere. Do not be put off by my comments- The Vine is a nice pub in a very pleasant location.

Nice friendly pub and food smells wonderful

Always a warm welcome. Traditional food with good choices for Veggies and Vegans, a nice range of beers. The garden is large and has plenty of seating, lots of it undercover. Everything is clean and well organized, all in a peaceful village setting.

Food and service very good to excellent. Very friendly.

Staff very good and lovely garden to sit out in especially during the hot weather. Food just OK being vegetarian id give the nut roast a miss.

Good food and good friendly service, lovely garden

Peaceful gardens and well positioned for lunch and a drink after a walk on the downs.

Beautiful setting with lovely food.

I'd say one of the best burgers I've had in the Hampshire area. Great selection of beverages, ideally located in Hannington with an amazing garden and stunning countryside views. Nice little play area for children, definitely recommend paying them a visit.

Lovely as usual, will be rebooking soon 😃

Always good service and good food.

Had lunch in garden very friendly and helpful staff Will be back food very good

Friendly polite staff ,lovely garden and great food .

Sat outside, lovely pub. Dog and children friendly. Excellent staff

Lovely place, food is great, outdoor space really nice for families and dogs

We went here for a birthday party. It was very busy so service was slow. Took a while to get our drinks, and longer to get our food. Several orders came wrong and had to re ask for drinks that didn't arrive. As it was busy can forgive some things. Food was served but now cutlery to eat with so food was cold. Perhaps cutlery could have come before the food was served 🤔. As I said it was busy so somethings can be forgiven.

Stopped off for a drink and snacks part way around a country walk. It was chucking it down but staff made sure we had somewhere to sit. Staff really friendly and helpful, waiting on everyone efficiently despite the pouring rain. We had the brie and bacon baguette and it was delicious and really fresh. We will definitely return and try more from the menu.

Situated in a very idyllic location, especially if on a walk. I only had a couple of beers here but the staff were very attentive . I would definitely return

Easy process for buying drinks and a really friendly atmosphere. The staff were chatty and polite, a great welcome on a long cycle ride.

Great staff, amazing food, lovely garden. Nice place to go and have lunch.

Very friendly staff and pleasant surroundings.

Lovely beer garden, brilliant staff.

Always a great place to go with caring attentive staff. Good to go back once again and food and doom bar was very nice.

Had sunday lunch, food & service very good. Would recommend

Just had Sunday lunch here and was excellent. Felt very comfortable inside the pub, with the safety measures in place. Thoroughly recommend.

Very good food and Covid process
