West Town in Havant

No need to look elsewhere unless you want to pay more.

I have been twice recently.. last week I took my parents for Mother’s Day and although it was really busy there the food was lovely when it came out… and this week it was my birthday had a meal there with parents and brothers family we all ordered different things and everything tasted really good … not 1 of our group had a complaint about their food … the staff were attentive nothing too much trouble… well done to all the staff and Maxine for creating an atmospheric pub with great food … we will be back 😊

Nice food at a reasonable price. Friendly staff.

Lovely Mothers Day lunch for 12 at the West Town Inn. We had the 3 course Mothers Day lunch, great choice and value for money. It was busy as expected but not crowded, the staff were organised and welcoming. The food was delicious, so much meat on the roast and everything was cooked perfectly. Nice touch for the Mums, a complimentary g & t and a pot plant from the landlady Maxine. We had a lovely afternoon and stayed longer to listen to the lovely singer Jessica. Everybody had a fabulous day, thank you West Town Inn xx

The staff and manager are very friendly, The pub has a great selection of drinks and the food is fantastic

Popped in for lunch after a walk in the rain. We received a lovely welcome even though we were soaking wet and hardly looking our best. The two of us chose the same lunch - beef and ale pie, with mashed potatoes and peas. The food was lovely, the service prompt and friendly. This is definitely a pub I will visit again.

Went for Sunday lunch, absolutely blown away by the experience. Great to see such a fabulous team working so well together. Lots of choice, excellent produce. The chef certainly knows how to cook. Manager was engaging and kind. Will be our regular haunt from now on. When you find a good place, stick with it. Keep up the great work Teamwesttowninn

Reasonably priced pub food. Locals pub, but has been renovated in past few years. Good to watch sport and large pub garden

We really enjoyed our visit today. Great food and the staff are amazing

Brilliant atmosphere, was a really nice place to enjoy although we could not sit outside as too cold we sat next to the fire in the pub and had a good burger with nice glass of wine, Highly recommend. Was good value for money also, Clean & Tidy If you like your traditional pups with a modern twist take a visit

Had an amazing Sunday Lunch. Beautifully cooked vegetables and very tender meat. Great service and lovely cosy atmosphere with tasteful live music. What a great place to spend a very chilled afternoon

Fabulous Sunday roast , great staff , great atmosphere! The pub looks so pretty and cosy all decorated lovely for Xmas . There was a live singer this afternoon! 100 per cent recommendation . Great afternoon! 👏

Cannot fault the food,service and the wonderful atmosphere of this venue we all has a brilliant time . We'll done to the staff. Keeping 14 people happy and well fed is no mean feat.

Had a fabulous Christmas Lunch today at the West Town. The steak was cooked to perfection best I have had in the UK for a long time. Attentive service and a delicious sticky toffee pudding is to die for. Well done once again to the chef and wonderful staff.

Food was lovely not a bad price but you had to pay extra for a couple of small sausages

Great food. Lovely staff Never had a bad meal here. The steak was Melt in your mouth and not a bit of gristle. Pie has lovely pastry and plenty of filling. Hunters chicken was succulent. Definitely worth a visit.

Delicious food. Courteous, friendly and attentive staff. Spacious seating with comfortable chairs. It was too cold to eat outside but the back patio/seating was lovely. Had the tikka masala and bangers and mash. Both were so so good! Will definitely be back!

Sunday Lunch last weekend was amazing and brilliant value for money. The duo meat option was incredible value. So much I could not finish it. Hats off to the chef and can’t wait to come back. Service was excellent and so brunch/breakfast a few weeks back.

Went for Sunday lunch, had really good fast service. Food was great and lots of it. Reasonably priced with friendly helpful staff. All in all an enjoyable experience and one I will be repeating.

Wonderful duo meat roast dinner this lunchtime- best roast ever and fantastic value for money and great service. Hats off to all can’t wait to go back again.

Quiet lunch but friendly, helpful staff. Very nice food. Definitely worth visiting.

Walked into an amazing layout of a Halloween themed pub. Good cider, great food, lovely pleasant staff and to top it all, a live singer who was very, very good. .

Very good is for the food, and better. But the language is getting worse as each week goes by. If I had explained or ask to cool the language, I expect I would have been told, either you know where the door is, or men will be men letting of steam. But surely this is a family pub, and ladies present, that are out to enjoy a nice meal, not to have to listen to bad language from noisy men

OMG Really, Tomato ketchup as the bace for a pizza, sort of thing you expect on utube not on a margarita, apparently that's what the chef uses.

Great atmosphere, lovely food with friendly staff can't wait to go back..

Lovely staff they go out there way to make you welcome

Had a Friday afternoon lunch here having arrived in the area to stay at Lakeside. Friendly staff, good selection of drinks at reasonable prices and the food was lovely and good value. The pub looks nice inside and has a large garden (with rabbits and an owl). We ate outside as it was nice weather. The only bad point (and why I didn't rate excellent) is the toilet cleaning - they smelt very strongly of dirty cloth or mop.

Had birthday celebrations this weekend all our guests enjoyed pub food was excellent staff brilliant attentive and friendly use this pub occasionally never had a negative experience would recommend to all

Get off the beaten track and get here, walking the dog with the family and stumbled in for drinks witn the dog, ended up ordering dinner, and was proper happy with what we had. Ghe chicken strip starter were amazing, and the burgers were absolutely astounding. Would highly recommend this establishment for for food, drinks and atmosphere. The food is piping hot & served with a smile, the staff here are so friendly, even the chef helped serve up, and what a lovely guy. Allround, it's a 10/10 from me and the fam. I will be returning to the island, even if it is just for the food, and I'm a foodie 😁

Both myself & my partner have been here many times & can recommend The West Town. Maxine & her lovely & helpful staff are welcoming & Alan the chef is always very cheerful & helpful & always serves us first class food, very yummy, thanks. Would highly recommend The West Town for either lunch or dinner. We also enjoy the themed nights which are great fun.

Booked for an important birthday treat but was let down and was unable to get a table or meal. Head chef very abusive and nasty when queried politely and bar staff thought this was hilarious, not nice, in fact quite upsetting and unprofessional. Not recommended if the occasion matters to you. Could not get another booking for Sunday lunch on the island, so bought a pizza from Lidls, which was delicious and a fortune was saved. Lidls are great. Manager seemed decent and later apologised for the chefs actions and offered a takeaway roast, but the pizza had already been eaten by then. We will not book there again, but thankfully there are literally loads of decent places on hayling to eat, almost all of them, so no loss to any of us at all whatsoever. Friends and family will also avoid having heard about the experience and the fact the head chef seemed to really enjoy ruining a young lads 18th birthday treat and lie about the reasons. A real shame, as it was the one place chosen for the event and he was looking forward to it. Can’t comment on the food, obviously, but service, atmosphere and bar staff are not good. Maybe when the chef is gone the pub might be okay again. Guess we will never find out as bookings cannot be relied upon…

Extremely rude staff, Horrible microwaved food, was a awfully uncomfortable non welcoming atmosphere

Had an absolutely fantastic roast dinner this Sunday. Couldn't fault a thing, the food was fresh and hot and tasted amazing.

Stunnning roast dinner today . Many thanks

Roast dinner lovely great beer thank you best pub on the island

Booked a table for 7 plus a dog and had a great Sunday roast and pudding and everyone enjoyed it We visit every year and are never disappointed

Absolutely delicious food, great atmosphere friendly staff

Fabulous meal and service, back very soon

Sunshine cold cider sat in a lovely beer garden

What a wonderful treasure on the island! Lovely decor, fresh, clean, warm, and inviting. Great menu, not overloaded with too many choices. The food is great! I had a Stilton and mushroom burger. Full of flavour, juicy and tasty. My daughter had the kids chicken nuggets and fries. Again, nice flavour and tasty. I would highly recommend anyone on the island to stop in and enjoy this little pub!!

Lovely place for a hearty Sunday roast. Very generous portions, good roasties and yorkies! The beef could have been a little tenderer but the pork was great. Will definitely be back again soon.

Really nice pub. We enjoyed a couple of drinks in the garden, we are going back again definitely.

Lovely family pub. Cannot fault it. Thank you for making the last night of our holiday so lovely 😍

the food and service was good except there is a concern of mine. there is an owl in the pub garden and I am worried about it’s living space. there is barely any room for it to fly and absolutely no privacy whatsoever. along with this I believe there is a stage right next to it, which must be horrendous for the owl to live by with all the noise.I know it’s a rescue so you can’t set it free yet you shouldn’t be keeping a wild animal in these conditions. please extend the cage even it’s by a couple metres and let the owl and give it some privacy to live. It’s only 8 years old and has a life expectancy of forty years. don’t make it live like that

Ate here twice whilst on holiday, highly recommend. Friendly staff, lovely home cooked food, great atmosphere (enjoyed the live singer during our Sunday lunch). Thank you all at the West Town Inn 👍👍

Very pleasant staff,and surroundings.will visit again.5stars.

Always love the atmosphere and food in this pub but finally visited for a Sunday roast this week after it being recommended several times. It did not disappoint. The staff are lovely. The food was great and it is so child friendly. We will definitely be back and would recommend to anyone! Thank you all

Food was very nice. We had the Sunday roast. Would definitely recommend it. Had plenty of car parking spaces. And a very good play area gor the kids to play in

Went to a large party all food came put hot a delicious. All staff very attentive . Max and her team are great.

30 of us had a 'dinner party' at the West Town Inn last night. Most had 2 courses, some had 3. Every dish was served hot and on a warm plate. fantastic service with not one issue about the food. Maxine and her staff have worked wonders with a once troubled pub. if you haven't been there in the last 5 years, it's time you tried it. 5 stars just isn't enough.

It felt like the staff worked as one happy family, and the quality of the food, (which they obviously took a pride in) and the atmosphere reflected that.

The visit with friends a few days ago, made us realise that this landlady, is making a go of things in this pub, to call it her own. What a difference the landlady has made already, it is well worth a visit. You have the experience of the outdoors, with all new seating. Birds for the youngsters to let them know what all the strange noises of a night time brings, when they have their windows open. Lovely area for the kids. We all had a meal Piri-Piri, Hunters,Scampi, which were plentyful, and filled the plate, tasty, plenty of sauces. The Staff were also very good, gave you progress of your food. All in all very nice evening, will go again.

I would have rated it 5 but the Yorkshire puddings were tough and beef was also a little chewy, however the “trimmings” were fine . Plenty of choice of vegetables, lovely parsnips and roast potatoes. Good fast service and staff asked if all was ok. All in all very tasty

Lovely sunny Sunday afternoon in the garden, play area for the kids and excellent singer. Highly recommended

Absolutely fabulous darling. Such a nice friendly place, lovely decor and facilities, the staff were so friendly and helpful, we will be back.

Friendly, happy pub. Lots of effort gone into the garden area. Suitable for kids. Lovely. Food wasn't great but the atmosphere made up for it.

Had a wonderful Sunday roast a few weeks ago. What a turn around from years gone by, the pub has had so much love poured into it, it looks beautiful and the food is amazing! Would 100% recommend

Stopped here for Sunday lunch. Sadly no yorkshire pudding for gluten free. Service was quite quick, nice friendly staff. Lunch was nice.

Nice pub with a lovely big garden serving decent pub grub at a reasonable price...welcoming staff offering good service. The pub is family friendly and has a play area for kids and I believe they offer overnight parking for campervans/motor homes. I live very close to the pub, moved in during lockdown last year, and immediately heard 'horror stories' about the pub's dreadful reputation, past landlords/ladies and it's clientele...I am very happy to say the new Landlady appears to have turned the place around maintaining a friendly atmosphere and is very mindful of the local residents.

Lovely food, polite service and a great environment. We eat in the garden which was very comfortable and the plenty of space.

I love this pub! It is well run, nest, tidy and very spacious. Great place for a drop-in drink on our dog walk. The atmosphere is good and the staff are friendly and attentive.

Stopped off for Sunday lunch. Staff were polite, friendly and helpful. Meal was nice, reasonably priced too. Gluten free Pork roast, shame they don't do gluten free Yorkshire puddings, so easy to make with cornflour.

Great atmosphere. Family friendly. Great beer garden.

We felt very comfortable here and had two lovely days and evenings. Thank you for your hospitality!!

First time here for many years great atmosphere lovely helpful staff x

Very friendly staff and very helpful, so if in Hayling Island head for west town inn you will not be disappointed 😉

An absolutely wonderful place with fantastic food and delightful people. The main courses were fabulous and the dessert was to die for.

Nice atmosphere and food was OK.

Excellent service friendly staff will defo be visiting again when down in june

Good food, served with a smile.

Really good meal. Will definitely be returning!

Clean & bright family pub, plenty of drinks to choose from, friendly staff & some amazing food. Will definitely return again

Good value roast dinner, lots of it. Alan's "shires" are delicious. Staff always friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend

Absolutely Amazing Roast Dinner Will defo be back 🤩

Lovely pub, with great food. Super friendly staff.

The West Town Inn, situated in the heart of Hayling Island, is a charming and welcoming inn that provides an ideal destination for tourists and locals alike. During my recent visit, I had the pleasure of meeting Max, the landlady, who was warm and friendly from the outset. She was attentive to our needs and made us feel comfortable throughout our stay. The food at the West Town Inn was excellent, with Alan the chef preparing delicious and satisfying dishes. In particular, the Sunday roast was a standout. It was cooked to perfection, and the portion size was more than generous. Alan's attention to detail and use of fresh, local produce was evident in every bite, and I highly recommend his creations to anyone visiting the inn. One unexpected surprise was the free entertainment provided after we finished our meal. It was a great way to relax and unwind after a long day, and the musicians were incredibly talented. The atmosphere was lively, and it was clear that both the guests and the locals were enjoying themselves. Overall, my experience at the West Town Inn was fantastic, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Max and Alan have created a wonderful establishment, and their dedication to providing top-quality food and entertainment is outstanding - we will be back.

Excellent service for a large (13 people) Mothers' day lunch. Friendly and accommodating staff, good food and generous portions. Thoroughly recommended.

The food is great and the kids loved it too safe to say we love coming here

My boyfriend had a lentil and butternut squash Wellington with his Sunday roast, he said it was incredible! The staff are always very welcoming and kind and overall the atmosphere is very warm. A lovely place to have a few drinks or go out for food!

Lovely welcoming pub, friendly landlady an staff, fabulous garden, great service an nice decor, highly recommended!

It has to be one of the best pubs on 'the Island'. Greatly improved by MAX and team.

Maxine and staff all very welcoming. Lovely roast dinner! 😋 nice atmosphere, will definitely go again 😊

Just had Sunday Roast here and by far the best roast I’ve had on island with the most amazing roast potatoes and cauliflower cheese… thank you 🙏 will be back 🙌🏻

Great English Roast for lunch at the West Town Inn today with a friend we were both amazed at the portion served. You won't leave there hungry. Very good tasty home cooked Sunday lunch. Certainly worth a visit.

It's not a spit and sawdust, but it's as close to a real pub as you're gonna get around here. Very friendly and welcoming staff, good beer, friendly atmosphere (barring the odd Friday night idiot or so). Max and team have done well over the last few years to be able to accommodate everyone - from groups of OAPs for lunch, to the younger crowd on a Friday night. Depending on what you're after, and when you turn up, you may very well walk away very happy with the experience

Lovely pub, lovely food and the most welcoming people! Really friendly! Will definitely come back to visit!

A nice pub, had Sunday lunch today. Great meal, lovely, friendly staff.

Great pub just a few yards shy of the end of the Billy trail. The staff are welcoming and friendly and the pub was bright and warm. Lots of space to, not at all cramped. We decided to stay for a bite. The prawns were nice, came with a nice dip. Fake spicey chicken bits were only let down by the "cooling lime mayo" which turned out to be a pot of Mayo with a wedge of lime on the top, did make as laugh at least. Nice big screens for Football watching if you're into that. Would vist again.

Good evening out and great local pub with friendly staff

Really great pub, fantastic service and atmosphere, sadly we couldnt get any food as they were fully booked. They had a band playing which was a perfect finish to the evening.

Excellent food atmosphere and service the chef Allan 👨‍🍳 is pleasant and very skilled max has certainly made a place people want to go and performed miracle on the hospitality of the westown the food is divine

Really nice relaxed pub. Food prices very good! Garden was amazing!

Great pub with good food .The publican is doing a lot for the community .Worth a visit

Lovely atmosphere and great staff. Enjoyed an amazing roast dinner with so many choices of veg. Always good

Great food best on the Island by far

A nice pub, had Sunday lunch today. Very busy would suggest you book in advance if you wish to dine there. Had a bit of a wait but understandable with how busy they were. Would return again and maybe try one of their entertainment nights.

Excellent roast dinner, friendly service. Well worth a visit we will be back.

Only stopped off here for the 1. But found it to be a vary welcoming place. All the staff were friendly and made conversation. Decent variety of Drinks to choose from and prices reasonable for the area. Nice seating area outside along with a pool table etc inside.

Great atmosphere. Alan is a fine chef. We are here on holiday and this is our second visit. Loved the food. Visit this pub. You won't be disappointed. We will be back

Birthday 🎉 treat today with friends for lunch, lovely food , lovely staff , went out of their way to make it special for me , thank you guys 😊
