The Well Being Cafe in East Hampshire

The good: The staff are truly amazing. For young staff, they were really attentive and happy to help. The setting is also beautiful, lots of parking and you also have the ability to have a private room for functions. The Prawn cocktail was really lovely, decent size and tasty. Please see the ugly for the bread. The bad: Mix up in orders (even though we had to do a preorder). Food also not available despite doing a preorder! The ugly: Children's starters. Carrot and pepper crudités. No peppers, carrots cooked?! Who serves cooked carrot sticks as a crudité?! Bread. Stale. Must have been cut in the morning and left on the side. This was served with the soup and prawn cocktail. Fish and chips. Fish burnt and small size. Definitely not worth £17. "Triple cooked chips". Definitely not. Some were served cold, not what you'd expect if they were straight out the fryer. Steak. Grisly. Small. Underwhelming. Chicken. Served partially raw. This was refunded in full and starter given for free in fairness. Chocolate brownie. Extremely dark chocolate and crumbly. Not the texture you'd expect for a brownie. I would describe the entire meal as barely adequate. They are advertising their Christmas menu currently. If it carries on like that I genuinely think your Christmas would be ruined! Either that or they half the price of everything as you are paying top whack price for mediocre food. We should have known something wasn't quite right when there were only a few tables at the pub, for a Friday night! I hope it picks up and gets better as it would be such a shame to see the place go. As I said before, the location and staff are great but the chef needs letting go!

Booked a table online, taking a chance on a place to eat we had not eaten before. My wife and I were with another couple and had the following from the menu: Starters; 2x Ham Hock & Cheddar Croquette, Mustard Mayo. 1x Cajun Tiger Prawns, Asian Sauce, Mixed Leaves. 1x Nachos – Sour Cream, Guacamole, Salsa. Mains; 2x Slow Cooked Rack of Ribs, House Made Barbeque Sauce, Fries, Coleslaw (1x half & 1x full) 1x Quesadilla, Toasted Tortilla Wrap with Melted Cheddar, Onion and Peppers, with added Cajun Chicken 1x Cooked Venison Haunch Steak, Chive Mash, Seasonal Vegetables, Port Reduction, Berry Jus. The food was outstanding, all of our food pierced at the table hot and freshly cooked, flavour of all the dishes was fantastic. I had the venison dish and it was exquisite. Staff were very friendly and helpful, with table service and a good knowledge of the menu. We would all definitely return to this pub/restaurant. Food and drinks were reasonably priced.

Great location for families and friends to visit great food and tea and coffee ☕ great walks near by parking near by nice hot chocolate and 🍰

Tried to have lunch here today. It was lunchtime and with the relatively small choice of meals and snacks available, (breakfast stops at 11:30am) it would have been reasonable to assume that demand could be met. Wrong! With only three quarters of tables occupied, my first choice of meal was unavailable due to a lack of potatoes. So, having had to choose another dish, twenty minutes passed before being informed that an ingredient for that was missing. I found this unacceptable and left having been refunded for the inconvenience of having to put up with such shoddy service. I was not the only complainant and something needs doing to improve service in this establishment.

Staff did their best but the wait was long and when it arrived it was cold and very poor. Been sitting around for awhile so was dried up. Staff did offer replacement but was past it by then. We had 4 tapas plates and it was only the kofta that was worth eating. Very disappointed
