The staff were really friendly and helpful and the decor was lovely. Unfortunately the lunch menu was uninspiring and all a bit on the posh side, but didn't deliver. Ordered only item that vaguely appealed to me, which was avocado with poached eggs. When it arrived it was pureed avocado piped onto thin slice of sourdough bread, with two poached eggs on top, which were cold by the time they got to me. The whole combination didn't work, sourdough was soggy, pureed avocado was like baby food and obviously refrigerated, which made the eggs cold. I should mention that the waitress took my meal off the bill, so thank you for that. Bring back club sandwiches and homemade soup, simple things that satisfy hungry lunch clientele!

We hadn't been here for a while when the prices were high and the food minimal. But now it is obviously in new hands and the food was very good, An excellent selection of ales and good menu - the ploughman's sandwich was massive and very tasty and the fish finger sandwich had very large haddock fingers in it. Good friendly service too. Champion

My friends and I decided to meet for drinks at the White Horse in Otterbourne having seen on their website that on Saturdays from midday until 6pm, they offer 2 cocktails for the price of 1. The actual wording reads as follows: “Saturdays may be our favourite day of the week with BOTTOMLESS BRUNCH from 10pm – 4pm, where you can enjoy any dish from our menu with 90 minutes of bottomless Prosecco, House Wine or Aperol Spritz for an additional £25. And the fun doesn’t stop there – keep the good times rolling with our incredible 2-4-1 COCKTAILS from midday until 6pm!” However, on arriving at the pub, what we were actually offered was 2 of the same cocktail for £14 from a much reduced (and uninspiring) list. Worst still, when the bar staff were made aware of the website promotion (which I showed them on my iPhone) they refused to honour it. The charmless way in which our query was handled, coupled with an obvious lack of the business acumen required within the hospitality industry, meant that we didn’t order any further drinks and moved onto a different pub.

A good place if you want a nice meal and are willing to spend a bit of money. The pub was very clean and tidy. Food is brilliant do recommend the pork belly as a starter. Service by Erin (I believe was our server) was very good.

we had called ahead to book a table and was grateful that we had a table reserved in the bar area Staff are friendly answering questions about items on the menu and the service was okay The menu isn’t the best choice and as a sirloin steak was £38 it is on the heavy side of expensive albeit the food was cooked and served nicely definitely not worth the money The only other negative point was as we asked for the “discretionary service” charge to be removed from the bill - only because I want to determine the amount if any for a service charge- the attitude of the staff changed to the point one ignored my wife’ saying thank you as we left More places need to look up the word discretionary before they start getting frosty about people not paying it and as the bill was over the £100 mark I am certain (having worked in the restaurant business) that the restaurant made enough money from us on the meal and drinks Would not recommend and will not be going back

I thought that learning how to cook beef burgers, so that the middle is not served raw was one of the first lessons given at catering college. Mine had an uncooked middle but the restaurant lighting was so poor that I had eaten some before sending the dish back. The manager confirmed that it is their policy to serve burgers 'pink' which leaves precious little room for error if the chef is not up to standard. A simple check with a food thermometer would have shown the chef that the meat on my plate was not safe. Yes, they reheated my food to cook the meat, but I still didn't touch my meal again as I now had no faith in their chef's attitude to hygiene and food safety in general.

We were very disappointed ☹️ with the food. The roast was luke warm and the meat so hard you couldn’t cut it with the knife provided. We ordered jam roly poly and that arrived the same nearly warm!! Would not recommend to anyone and won’t go again.

We had a family celebration for my father's 91st birthday. Originally the manager, who I believe was Brenton on the night, had placed us in a long table. The slight hiccough was there was a step up and dad's mobility is challenged, using a stick..as is my brother's who's in a wheelchair. With no hesitation, we were moved to a table on the flat and another table added to it, BUT, Brenton put blocks under each leg, so my brother's chair could easily go underneath. This is real customer service in my opinion! The food was delicious, as last time and the service, prompt, efficient and warm without being over intrusive - as if you were eating at a friend's. If I lived locally as opposed to London, this would be my second home.

My wife and I were part pf a group of 9 friends who had booked lunch. Service was slow but our main complaint was the kale which was served with sea bream. 7 of the party had prdered this dish and not one of them could eat the kale becaise it was so tough. My wife had specifically asked for it to be well cooked - it was so tough she couldny even chew it! The peanut sauce which was served with the chicken wraps was flavourless but at least this was changed when we complained!

Sunday roast for four. Tussle to get the beef cooked without the trendy pink look. Portions were on the small side. Thin gravy. Sunday roast is not difficult to do well. Couple next to us had returned their food a couple of times - clearly wasn't going well. Pudding menu: I was going to go for the sticky toffee pudding with ice cream until I spotted it was vegan, gluten free, unleaded and so forth. Vegan ice cream is a contradiction in terms. How on earth does this get past trading standards. Milk Stout was banned out for similar logic. Very average.

Our waitress was very attentive and did her best to convey our comments about a very disappointing family meal. Prices charged for meagre portions were excused by the cost of their ingredients. So, that’s meant to explain a £30 sharing platter of 4 small, overcooked langoustines, 4 blinis with a small amount of trout and a dessert spoonful of crab, limp salad and two slices of bread. We used to be fans of Ideal Collection but our last couple of visits here have been very disappointing and we’ll be dining elsewhere in future.

The steak was cooked to perfection and perfectly rare, just as I like it. The young lady attending us was very helpful and obliging...and wished us a lovely meal as she was leaving, having finished her shift. We shall most certainly return when we are visiting family

Six of us met here for lunch. My partner and I shared Duck Arancini to start. To follow I chose Crab and Prawn Pappardelle with Tobacco Onions which were lovely. Others had a burger, fish cakes and ham, egg and chips. For one the chips weren’t hot so were replaced and the ham was too tough to eat so was not charged. Service was good.

Have been before, nice pub - nice interior, good parking, friendly staff. Friend and I had a sandwich each with a few crisps on side, two soft drinks (one of them a very cheap to produce lime and soda), two coffees. The bill, to which 12.50% service charge had been automatically added, was just shy of £40.00!!! Without the service charge was, I feel, expensive for what we had. But to be charged a service charge on top for a basic item such as sandwiches, on a table of just 2, is really taking the micky.

Very over priced £9.80 for a Gin and Ederflower tonic, all drinks are silly prices £6.20 for a pint of San Miguel and so it goes on. Food was not great all day breakfast eggs snottu,toast undercooked and cold,sausages very spicy with no mention on menu.Most of the meals ten in total were luke warm.Worst of all it was a celebration on my wife's life as the funeral was today and they forgot to good my wife her meal and tried to say we hadn't ordered it,!!!!!! fortune-telling we had written down our order and handed it to the waitress. Lame apologies were offered and a free dessert.At over £200 wasn't good value.

Read the Wine List before you order! Dont want anyone else to be 'caught' like we were. Lovely venue, good food, friendly staff. Whilst we were looking at the Menus, we were asked if we would like to order drinks, which we did - without checking the price. Two glasses of 175ml Spy Valley Sav Blanc came to £18! Outrageous for something worth no more than £5 per glass. Don't think we will be going back, and will certainly warn others!

Food was OK although not as good as the last time we had breakfast. Black specks on egg white and on bacon. Toast not very toasted. Main objection was being told when bill presented that a 12.5% service charge had automatically been added. Not been done before when we have been there for evening meals or breakfasts. Expect that if a large party but not when only 2 people. Should be my decision if we wish to put on a service charge, we shouldn't be put in the position of having to ask for it to be removed. Didn't happen when we were there 10 days ago so must be new idea. Won't be going back

Had a awesome evening in the garden with my 2 under 5's. Using the app is perfect when in the garden with little ones. Looking forward to the pizza oven being up & running again in the summer!

We have been a member (in My Wife's name) when the Ideal Collection (Card?) scheme started: pre pandemic and in 2019 and 2020 breaks in lockdown attended this pub and have always had excellent service, food ( probably the best burgers) and used the card...

Just 3 small prawns in large bowl (£5.50) for starter followed by tasteless 3 Black pudding croquettes. (£8.50 - I think). Really couldn’t identify any black pud ding. A friends smoked duck was tough and gristly. Expensive for what it was.

Visited last week, so good came back again. Naomi, James & Ally are truly expert at hospitality & certainly know their stuff. Had super banter with them & to top off it the food was excellent too. Came back today (left something here last week🙄)...

Came here for Sunday lunch. Starters of smoked duck and cheese soufflé very nice. Good and varied wine list with several wines available by the glass. Roasts were mixed. Meat was excellent but Yorkshire puddings a bit floppy, parsnips and green beans significantly undercooked carrot...

£26.50 for a day pass, although asked for £30 which includes donation. Our party was made up of 5 adults - we didn’t donate. To put into context, my husband and I have been members of Marwell in our days before our children. It holds a special place in our hearts. We moved away but always managed to make at least 2 visits a year as the children grew up & still do - the kids are now into their 20’s and often visit with us. Sadly the experience over the last 10 -15 years has progressively gotten worse. Every time we go we hope it will be better. Marwell was always at the forefront of conservation and education & had an extremely successful breeding program for the rhinos and giraffes. Much money has been spent on enclosures that didn’t work, the snow leopards, the cheeta, the walkway over the persian leopard, now cloud leopard, the new tropical house, the gibbon enclosure, kids play areas. Now it is a shell. Few animals, lots of paddocks full of weeds, & plastic bottles & little or no information. The annual membership is a steal but place feels more of a kiddies play area than a serious home for conservation and education. It’s expensive and disappointing. Bit on context - The Cotswold Wildlife Park is £19 for an adult. A much smaller facility but full of animals and information & staff happy to help and answer questions.

lovely pub but my only complaint is that legaly when a drink has been served that drink must be supplied to the recipient no matter what the time is and in the case of my visit i bought a drink near closing time and as soon as I bought that drink it was taken of me which is not just illegal but also unfair so for this reason I can not recommend this establishment at all

Came in for some drinks with friends- the women wouldn’t leave us alone the whole night. Watched us on the CCTV when we weren’t doing anything wrong and asked us to leave when we had bought lots of drinks. The food is sub par and the drinks extortionate . There are so many better pubs in Winchester so go to them.

Would love to be able to recommend The Cricketers but it was possibly the worst |Sunday Lunch we've ever had. Food was poor , service mediocre and cost extortionate. They even put a 12.5% sevice charge on the already expensive bill. To top it all one of our family who ate the pork had a very upset stomach .

Pleasant relaxed atmosphere, excellent food, prices reasonable, service perhaps a little slow. Gave us more time to talk. Give it a go.
