Wyke Down Country Pub & Restaurant in Test Valley

Good food good service. Normally perfect but this time the potatoes were slightly undercooked for my liking. Still my favourite Sunday roast in the area.

Excellent service, friendly and efficient staff. We enjoyed a lovely relaxed Sunday lunch. The carvery was very good, all hot and well cooked and good value. A well managed pub and restaurant.

Lovely carvery with Yorkshire pudding roast vegetables absolutely delicious we both enjoyed it great selection of vegetables, Father's Day treat. Best carvery had in a long time. Great service and value can't wait to go again for the carvery. Keep up the great work compliments to the chef and waiting staff!!

Lovely atmosphere, got us fitted in considering it's Easter Sunday. Carvery was lovely, very generous meat portions too. Fresh veg, loads to choose from. My partner had the burger and said it was one of the best burgers he has had! - he is extremely fussy, so this speaks volumes from him. Our waitress Becky was absolutely lovely, she was so hands on, and very accommodating to a large group of us. She was very polite, and very interactive with us. Which is lovely. Service is key to a good meal out, and Becky certainly delivered.

The menu was uninspiring and it seemed soulless. Having said that it was quite busy, service was slow (considering the menu was quick cook items). There was nothing actually wrong, it did the job but nothing more.

Absolutely amazing carvery, I was so happy to see pork and crackling! The waitresses are lovely and the landlady is so welcoming. This was my first time coming and I was so impressed that my partner and I are coming back next week. 100% worth the visit and really good value for money. Thank you!!

visited here several times, always good and today with family and friends. Was very busy, nice friendly ambiance, good to see. Great Sunday lunch, big portions and delicious. Lovely friendly service from Paige and Robbie Welfare. Great value, can definitely recommend.

Visited with my family on a Wednesday lunchtime. Very quiet! The food took quite a long time to arrive as there was only 1 waiter, a young lad Robbie. He was lovely, very friendly and polite. The fish and chips were great, as was the...

Yet another wonderful evening. Food was delicious. Service great. Will be back again with the family soon.

Lovely dinner after a long walk round St Mary Bourne. Fish and chips were particularly yum. Well done everyone.

Four of us came here on 50% off day which made the 3 course special deal £10. I chose from the main menu but the others each had the special. Apart from a delay with their puddings we all enjoyed what we had. My favourite...

I booked a table for lunch a week ago. Went to collect my elderly Dad and couldn’t find him ! He had gotten the time muddled up . I cancelled the booking , then found him and rang back - they were very understanding and...

Went here for a meal. we booked in advance. The meal was fantastic. we had a three course. staff were great. garden was great too

Food and staff amazing, the place is so organised its so refreshing! Runs like clock work, everyones running around dropping food collecting glasses etc.. and following all the covid rules !! Just has fish and chips! Say no more as to why i am leaving...

Friendly staff and good value for money. 3 course special menu for £20 And discount with the government inventive, even better. Great cheesecake too.

We visited as a belated birthday celebration for our son. The food was delicious. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The restaurant was very spacious and we felt super safe at all times. Well worth a visit.

Not been there for a while as it did shut down for a time n the food wasn't all that great. But we went back on a Saturday evening n was very pleased with the food and the service. I will be going back again...

Really lovely meal. Very friendly, attentive staff. Good choice of meals. Will definitely return. Thank you

Ordered 2 Sunday lunches ,1 was a vegetarian, The food came out very quickly considering how busy they were. It was cooked to perfection . Great value for money. 10/10.

We went to our local today ,to meet the new managers Ben and Tash. Lovely young couple . The pub is looking amazing. It has been decorated and is so fresh and clean throughout . Only had drinks today , but cant wait to try the Sunday morning breakfast , and also the main menu. So pleased to have a pub on the doorstep again. Good luck to everyone at the wyck down pub and resteruant.?

Since moving to Picket Piece I have supported this restaurant. The food has always been good but the service dreadful. Having just returned from having a Mother's Day lunch there ( under new ownership) I am thrilled to say that the service was faultless and our waitress (Gemma) was very attentive. The food was also delicious and I now look forward to making frequent visits to this establishment. Wishing them the best of luck for the future.

Visited earlier this month with group of friends for pre- ordered Christmas 2 course lunch at £21 per head. When booking made a setting for a wheelchair place was requested.

Service was poor, main course was good but no aftercare. We wanted puddings and coffees but completely disinterest from the servers. Other tables had personal attention but we were failed completely. Don't expect too much and you won't be disappointed. To take a balanced view, we have been their previously and NOT been disappointed - inconsistent!

As a last minute decision, we went to the Wyke Down for a Sunday Lunch.

What a wonderful experience. Decorations were fabulous. Food was delicious. My son said it was better than he had in Berlin. Credit to the chef. Unfortunately I did not sample the beers on offer as I was designated driver. My family though enjoyed all that was on offer and there was plenty. Background music made it very entertaining.Lovely attentive staff. Will definitely attend next year. Will also return for a meal one evening.

Everything is over cooked in this pub. From the white bait starter to the chips that come with the Burger. Over cooked, the burger was vile, over cooked and no taste whatsoever. Never again!

The wyke down is local to us and we visit fairly often. A nice meal in pleasant surroundings. We usually have a light lunch in the beer garden. Would recommend a visit

I and 3 friends ate here last month and the food was excellent! i had a steak which was cooked medium rare, exactly as i asked for it! the meal was literally 10/10! Keep up the great work!

We came here as a group of friends as someone recommended it. The bar staff and landlord were extremely inviting and friendly- they recommended good alcohol and food for us to eat. We all enjoyed our food, the portion sizes are huge and chips were massive and amazing- all fresh. They have 2 pool tables, a dart board and nuke box £1 for 5 songs which play loudly enough for the room it is in. There is lots of land around the pub perfect for weddings and parties also a children’s play area outside. Overall extremely impressed at the food and range of spirits and beers/cider/ales.

Just a quick review, as sometimes you review a place go back and its not as good or changed or something.

Visited 8th May early evening and was greeted with a smile. Efficient as always just gave us time to eat without hurrying us. Great food and great surroundings. Really need to visit as you won't regret it. Fair pricing to with great produce prepared with care. WELL DONE TO YOU ALL.

Just been there for a Mothers Day meal. All 10 meals came out together. Fresh food that was piping hot. Place was packed but staff coped amazingly! Dont scrimp on portions either. At the end of the meal, the Manager came out and gave all the females in the pub a houseplant as a gift. Lovely touch! Thank you all, great day x

This is a large county pub, with a restaurant area attached, a few miles outside Andover, down some narrow lanes, if you follow your satnav too closely, but they do have a few helpful brown signs on the surrounding roads.

We popped up here as it was not far from my daughters and she recommended we go and have a look at least.

I came along with some friends for Sunday lunch, there was a good choice however, only one main course with the gluten free symbol by it ,[ and gluten free gravy ] which was salmon with hollandaise sauce. I asked the waitress if the roast could be gluten free, [ remember the gravy ..] but was told that if it didnt have the gluten free symbol, then it wasnt gluten free. My friend ordered the salmon and it came minus the sauce, which had gluten in it !!! . unbelievable, how difficult can it be.....she was offered and accepted a jug of mushroom sauce as she wasnt tempted by the gluten free gravy. We weren't sure of the purpose for the gravy if the roast wasnt gluten free. When the confusion was sorted we all enjoyed our food and the puddings were delicious. With a lot of people nowadays, needing to avoid gluten, I think the menu really needs to be sorted out.

Fantastic place. Food totally to die for at very reasonable prices. Warm and welcoming ambiance. Will definitely be visiting again in the very near future

A table for 8 with excellent service, a good selection of beers and a good selection of roasts and other options. Warm and friendly and away from towns such as Salisbury, Basingstoke and on the outskirts of Andover. consistently good as we have visited previously. Quite busy for a Sunday but the servers were excellent. Veggie's also catered for. I really recommend Wyke Down Pub/Restaurant.

Although I live a very long way from this place I have reviewed it before. Sitting on the outskirts of a depressing London overspill industrial estate it doesn’t have the credentials to be anything special. Indeed, from the outside it looks at best, underwhelming. However like most things in life, it is foolish to judge a book by its cover and this is where it’s strength lies. I think it’s really the staff that make it so welcoming and of course, the food. The ambience is lacking due to the dated decor although many people don’t move with the times so it will suit them. The food is good bordering on excellent. The staff were friendly and interested in providing good service to their guests.

Had a few good meals here. There is plenty of off street parking.....service quick and friendly and food offered in big helpings was delish......would recommend...

This was a first visit for me and as it was early in the week the pub was quite quiet....

We've driven past this pub several times over the years but never stopped. However, we decided to try it with...

I’d been recommended to the Inn and I managed to include it in our 8 mile hike starting in Longparish. Excellent food, excellent service and such reasonable prices. Two ladies had the seniors two course lunch for £9.95. Three of us wished we’d gone for that but we were very happy with our a. Mexican chicken supreme and two had jacket potatoes.

Brought our son and girlfriend for a quick lunch. Handy as only a mile or so away and we didn't have a huge amount of time. Couple of main dishes - chicken burger and fish and chips plus two baguettes and chips to share. All were cooked freshly and very tasty. Great value for money, will be back for an evening meal.

Just 2 of us went for lunch. We chose just a basic baked potato and a roll. Nothing unusual, but it took ages to appear! The quality was ok, but nothing special.

Recientemente pasamos la noche en Wyke. La comida era excelente y el personal era muy atento. Sin duda lo recomiendo.

We visited the Wyke Down on a Friday night for a family meal but we didn't realise that Friday's are now American BBQ night. This means that the normal menu is unavailable on this night. The menu that is on offer has different options, however I felt that there was a lack of vegetarian options. There was only one which was a mushroom burger. Personally, I'm allergic to mushrooms so this was not an option for me, so instead I had to have a jacket potato. Not my first choice for a meal out. However, the nachos I had to start were absolutely beautiful. The service was fantastic and the food that we ordered arrived at the table quickly and was piping hot. The staff were brilliant, very polite and helpful.I do like that restaurants have theme nights and have different ideas but I think the normal menu should also be available.

Visited on a Sunday lunchtime. Became quite busy as opposite the pub there is a large car boot sale every week. Staff were very friendly, service good and an outside area to sit in which welcomes well behaved dogs.

My daughter and I with her partner went here on a Friday for fathers day. When we arrived we were told that they do not do the normal menu as it was a Friday and it was American Burger theme night. We were very disappointed and the Pilled pork was very salty as were the burgers as well Will definitely not be going on a Friday again.

Visited for a relatives birthday, staff are friendly and attentive, food was great plus a good amount of choice and good value. If in Andover or surrounding area this place is well worth visiting.

My wife and I visited recently, the first time in many months. We were aware that there had been a change of hands/ownership and thought we would give it a try.We phoned ahead to book a table, we were advised there would be no need as a table for two could be found. We arrived around 13.15 on a Sunday lunchtime (which not requiring a booking caused a little concern). The restaurant was not overly busy, with maybe five or six tables filled with diners. We were served drinks quickly and directed to our table. The menu was bought over quickly and our order taken. The Sunday menu may have been different from a weekday menu but Sunday offered a choice of three roasts (chicken, lamb, or beef), steak and bacon steamed suet pudding and 3-4 bar meals (ham/egg/chips, scampi and chips etc). The food (one roast beef and one suet pudding) was served promptly on hot plates. Two hot dishes of veg followed soon afterwards, one with roast potatoes and the other with mixed veg (carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and beans). The roast potatoes were good, the veg tasted a little plain. There was not a lot of taste difference between any of the vegetables. There portion sizes were good, the beef had three generous slices and the suet pudding was large enough for all but the very biggest of appetites, certainly more than enough for me. Our plates were cleared promptly and a dessert menu offered and delivered quickly. Our order for one chocolate orange cheesecake and two coffees was taken. The cheesecake arrived promptly, the coffees a little slower, the dessert was gone before the coffees arrived. We paid the bill at the bar, again without any fuss. On the whole a reasonable meal, the atmosphere within the restaurant for a Sunday lunchtime was more akin to Thursday evening at 18.30! £38.00 for two was not cheap in comparison to other recently reviewed restaurants. I am trying to be honest, it was not a bad meal but it wasn't brilliant either. It certainly is different from when the previous managers/owners ran the pub and restaurant.

I have reviewed this place previously after a poor evening dining experience.However, I am pleased to say, having visited with work colleagues, I had a very enjoyable lunch.We all opted for the lunch menu which has baguettes and jacket potatoes with various fillings. We also shared some chips.There were other options available if you fancied a steak or something so not limited.Will be going again I'm sure.

We were staying nearby for Thruxton over the weekend and needed somewhere to go for food in the evening. This place came up with good reviews so we decided to give it a try. The pub has several different areas; the restaurant, bar, pool tables and an adjoining campsite. Being a Saturday night it was rather busy, but we managed to book a table with only an hours notice.The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We were told there would be 30 to 45 minute wait for food, but ordered anyway. Turns out our food came much sooner and all our dishes looked great. Portion sizes were very generous and I can highly recommend the sweet potato and leek tart. Lots of flavour and obviously very fresh. They have a great selection of desserts too which we just managed to squeeze in! Definitely worth a visit if you are staying nearby!

We ate here with friends of ours and we both had our young babies with us. The staff are welcoming and the pub has a very relaxed atmosphere. The food came out in reasonable time and was very tasty and well cooked. There was a slight issue with one of the mains being served with the wrong side order however the waitress was very apologetic and ammended this promptly. We woukd return here in the future.

This was actually our second choice for a Friday evening meal-out as our first choice down the road was fully booked; but we were by no means disappointed. We were greeted by a warm, welcoming, friendly face behind the bar (something sadly lacking in many local establishments), who knew his ales and was very generous with the tasters too!We were informed that there had been a fire in one of the fryers in the kitchen, but providing we didn't mind a bit of a delay with our food, they were happy to take our order.Waitress was also friendly, but not overbearing or intrusive and actually the food was surprisingly quick despite the issues in the kitchen.Slightly disappointed that there was only one daily special on the board and that the menu hadn't changed much since our last visit last summer, but the food that we did receive was good, ample and very tasty. Would definitely recommend.

Recently changed hands this pub is a great place to eat with great value for money. The menu has plenty of choice with EVERYTHING FRESHLY COOKED and your taste buds know it. The new owners sensibly kept the two chefs of 17 years standing who cooked me a real old fashioned London Pride, beef and bacon pudding, delicious, followed by a very decadent banoffee pie. The friendly staff made us feel right at home.Inside the pub has several spacious rooms with beams and old farm tools and kitchen utensils decorating the walls and a wood burning stove. Lastly I have to mention that their toilets are some of the cleanest I have seen. We've been twice and will be going back! Ps there's a special senior citizen menu

I took my family out to this restaurant which, in the past, I have found to be consistently very good. However it appears to have changed recently. Atmosphere wise the dining area I thought was rather cold, temperature wise. There were a good number of people dining with a couple of parties going on which made it quite busy for the staff. The service and the food served was not up to the usual high quality I have come to expect at this venue, particularly the green vegetables selection and quantity. Roast lamb was served with copious amount of gravy which would have perhaps been better served in a gravy boat rather for clients who prefer not to have a lot of gravy.Salmon with Hollandaise sauce was rather Holandaise sauce with Salmon ie. far too much Hollandaise sauce. One main course did not arrive and sadly the waitress had to be reminded of this fact. The sweets however were very pleasant, perhaps even commendable. My tea was served from a teapot but had been made with Luke warm water hence it was a clear liquid and cold when poured, I pointed this out to the waitress who apologised and brought me a further pot of hot tea which was very pleasant. I will return once again, hopefully perhaps they were just having an off day.

good food friendly staff ,can be a bit expensive ,but was in the country so it was expected ,very clean , overall a very nice experience

Visited with a large party for a celebration but found the whole experience distinctly lacking.Everyone knows that if you book a large party there's little chance the whole party will arrive bang on time and ready to eat at the booking time. Yet it seemed that the food was ready right on time meaning that the waiting staff kept asking if everyone was there yet. As soon as the last 2 people arrived there was no time for a drink or catch up as the food arrived immediately. It was lukewarm unfortunately. They brought a pre-ordered dessert out with the mains (and didn't seem to see anything wrong with that) and one person didn't even get their main until everyone else had finished!Most of the food was left on the plates but the staff didn't seem to register that. We had to ask them to clear the plates eventually. One person asked if something was gluten free and was met with a shrug of the shoulders and an exasperated "I don't know!"Terrible service. Please train your waiting staff better. Bar staff were absolutely fine.

We have visited two or three times over the last month. I can't believe how empty the place was, and these were Saturday nights...... The food was fantastic with great service. I think the place has changed hands recently and it seems the same menu and chef are still here.....if you like great food with large portions this is the place.

Visited this restaurant last Sunday for lunch with my family that had traveled down from Newcastle to stay I have visited this restaurant before and after hearing it's under new management I thought I would see if it was the same I was greeted by a lovely smiling face from a young girl poppy who I remembered from last time I came ,very attentive staff and thoroughly enjoyed my visit !!! Lovely !!!

Visited with friends, nice friendly pub and the food was delicious, served with a smile and fast service, we will return next time we are in the area.

to the service we knew?We visited for a Christmas party just before Christmas with friends having eaten here and stayed on the campsite on several occasions over the last few years.Admitted some of us were were a few mins late due to traffic problems but no more than 10-12mins. We were shown to our table which was fine as our friends were already there and told someone would take our drinks order. Instead, within a couple of minutes, our pre-ordered starters were brought out and whilst some would call it efficiency, we were a little put out as it would have been good to catch up over a few sips of beer or wine first. I had to chase to get our drinks.No complaints with the starters which were well cooked and tasty as per usual standards but no sooner had we finished than plate were whisked away and our mains arrived, again well cooked and for me one of the tastiest steaks I'd had for a long time although they did forget the peppercorn sauce until halfway through.Again, as soon as we'd finished mains, pates cleared and we were asked if we wanted starters, or at least 3 of us were as the others had pre-ordered from the Christmas party menu. As I wanted another drink before ordering sweets, I asked the waitress to leave it a while as I also wanted to let the main course settle a little first, not an unreasonable request I thought.As we hadn't been asked if we wanted more drinks, a couple of us went to the bar to order and when we returned, the waitress was waiting for the order. I hadn't noticed but she'd waited at our table for our return which I considered very rude!Sweets duly ordered, these arrived quicker than a MacDonalds Big Mac in an empty drive through and again the food was good.Half way through, we noticed that the lights in the kitchen had gone out and our waitresses had completely disappeared! No one came out to check we were OK or to offer coffees or mince pies which I believe were part of the deal for those on a set menu.This lack or service wasn't down to being busy as there were only 2 other tables being served all "night" and when we left around 9.30pm due to feeling we'd outstayed our welcome, the pub was also empty with just the poor barman on his own. We didn't get the chance to tip (not that we would have due to the rushed service) as there was no one there to tip!Our compliments to the chef, but Wyke Down Management, please pay your staff to work a bit later and perhaps make your own presence a lot more obvious. I know Christmas is a very tiring time of the year but its also when lasting impressions are made....

We had to eat in the pub part even though we had booked the restaurant, atmosphere dull seeing as its christmas, no christmas music and not decorated well. Pub staff very unwelcoming, though the waitress was good, food = starter ok, had pate, main was cajun chicken, this was very dry with limp salad, chips good. We would not book again.

Booked a table in the restaurant for lunchtime today. Had a phone call saying that the restaurant was closed and we would have to eat in the bar. Too late too cancel and book anywhere else so we grinned and bore it. The service is rather surly and unskilled, waitresses were amazed when I asked for an extra plate (two of my party were sharing) - you'd have thought I'd asked for the body of their roasted grandmother! Only two menus allowed per table - NO MORE! The well-nourished lady behind the bar is not totally hostile but is disinterested and if you try to talk to her walks away from you to stare at the wall! The food is fine if you like microwaved stodge with chips (and some people obviously do). The overall effect is low-key, depressing, and disappointing. Needless to say this will be our last visit to this rather crappy establishment - we're now looking for better. Oh, and sharing the bar with a screaming child was not for us a highlight. If you want crappy food, service, atmosphere then go right ahead and book. If you're looking for a nice dining experience then Wyke Down Country Cow-Shed is most definitely not it.

We visited this pub recently for our works Christmas meal, the meal was pretty average and the service was ok. I would recommend, however you get what you pay for. Some of us had the pork belly but when I asked for apple sauce they didn't have any which was a bit surprising.The best bit of the night was the evening entertainment, the disco was good, the music was great and it was a fun night.

I frequently visit here mostly on Sunday's as the roasts are absolutely fantastic The Sunday just gone I spoke to a lovely pretty young girl called poppy who assured me that after the business had switched hands the chefs and staff were all the same which made me feel a lot happier , it's a warm and welcoming pub and the staff are an absolute credit !!! Well done !!

We must have chosen the day the Chief was off. The soup was not edible and none of those who ordered it were able to eat it, we think it had been double or triple spiced. Then the main meal of cottage pie was the meat section served speed thinly over a plate with a portion of potato in the centre. I can only assume the meat was put of a cold plate which took all the heat out of it as it was cold, although the potato was only just warm. Such a shame as they have some good reviews, feel what ever the issue was when we visited seriously let the place down.

We often use this pub for lunch and always enjoy our visit. The service is very friendly and the food tasty.

I done think I've ever written a poof review but teetered on the edge of one star for this.The food was average at best. The wrong meal entirely came out for one of us.We couldn't wait to leave. There is a kids play area which leads out into camp site. It would be better if this was more secure for the kids. A gate would help. Inside there are pool tables and darts and plenty of space.Outside the owners dog wandered around the car park. I mentioned this to the staff who seemed to wish it would get knocked over to teach it lesson. We left after that. So much potential. Must be relying on the camp site to keep things ticking over. Disappointed.

Sometimes slow service but food plentiful and good, prices very reasonable .haven't been there since change of ownership but hopefully still as good . It is our nearest eatery so fingers crossed

We have visited Wyke Down on a number of occasions and can honestly say this is our favourite place to eat. Not only is it good value for money the food is always superb. My partner had a 16oz rump steak and said that it was the best steak he had ever had. I usually have the steak pudding and again it is the best. The food is always hot and plentiful with quick friendly service. Would certainly recommend a visit.

With a change of ownership we keep our fingers crossed that any alterations at the Wyke Down are for the better. All was well on our latest visit and echoing other reviewers the food is nearly always very good with a large choice of dishes and a great range of portion sizes - ideal for those with either large or small appetites. That's what makes the Wyke Down very good. It doesn't have the charm of an old village inn but it doesn't pretend that's what it is. What it has is the friendliness of a good local that is welcoming to all with well cooked food at a decent price and a good range of drinks with 3 cask ales on the go including the house "London Pride". So thanks to Peter for making the Wyke Down what it is today and we wait to see what plans the new owners have for the future.

I have been going to the Wyke Down for last six years since moving to Andover and just have to say that, apart from the odd wait as very busy, this place great. A very good range of locally made home cooked food. Love there shepherds pie, home made pate, burgers, steaks, pies etc etc. I have probably had nearly everything on the menu over the years . They also cater for parties which always go off without a hitch even with 30+ people. You can choose between eating in pub section or restaurant section plus there are darts and pool tables available.. There is also a driving range. Rustic setting with lovely countryside surrounding. Hope that with all the developments in the area that this place stays and carries on servings great homely food.

Just had another meal, here, today and once again amazed at the quality of the food.The rest of my party had the superb value OAP specials, which are fine, with a pudding included. There is a vast choice of meals to be had. But for me, the small amount extra for the Beef, Bacon and Onion Savoury Pudding is well worth it. Not many places do Steamed Puddings, but this is fabulous! Just don't eat anything else that day! Served with nice fresh veg and proper chunky chips ( or potatoes ) it is simply fit for a king...A charming and friendly waitress completed a very nice meal... along with a raspberry pavlova..... Recommended...

We went for a reunion lunch with friends - a group of 10 that had been booked well in advance. We had a side room booked for us. The organiser had unfortunately overlooked the request to take food orders in advance, however we all tried hard to compensate for this by ordering only simple meals and doing so as soon as we arrived. We had all arrived by 12pm and had ordered food to eat at 1pm or just after so no mad rush for the kitchen. The pub was virtually empty with few other people eating and our order was very simple - baguettes, jacket potatoes and a couple of burgers. However, staff made their annoyance clear. We received a very cold welcome with no smiles or eye contact being made during service, despite our attempts to engage them and be friendly. Such unprofessionalism is highly off-putting and I would definitely take my business elsewhere in future and I know my friends felt the same.

Loved the food which is a little expensive but as with ALL food you deaf get what you pay for... Good service too

Heard some good 'recent' reviews for this venue and thought we would take the parents for a bite to eat. Must say, although it was quiet, the food and service was excellent. Two of us had the fish, chips and mushy peas which were very tasty and came in very generous portions. One had the cottage pie and I had the special of the day, beef madras curry with boiled rice and nan breads. All of us agreed the food was hot, fresh and very tasty. All this for less than £9 each.... Bargain. The desserts were a bit more pricier though at about £5 to £6 each, but again very tasting and fresh. The restaurant is a bit tired but very clean and the staff were very attentive. Will definitely be going back.

This pub is more or less our local and we eat here fairly frequently, usually on a Saturday lunchtime and have been doing so for several years now. The food is always excellent with a wide choice of starters, mains and desserts as well as a baguette/jacket potato menu. We have never been disappointed and have always found the staff to be friendly and helpful. Good value for money.

This is bar far the best pub in the area for a meal with the family, as a couple or whenever and whatever your circumstance, the food is outstanding, the service fantastic it is clean it is spacious yjr play area for the children outside is safe and well maintained. This is a must visit if you are in the Andover area. I arranged a family meal for my parents anniversary so there was a large group of us, when booking, the lady talked us through everything and offered us a large room for no additional cost, going well above our expectations. To make sure we all got from the menu what we wanted we were asked to order a couple of days before, what a great idea. on the day we arrived but half our party were delayed due to an accident on the road coming in, the staff done ery well with this and did not looked stressed, although I fully appreciate this must have been a pain. However, when the food came once we were all there, wow, just wow. presented beautifully lovely portions. The vegetables all fresh were cooked to perfection. with a good choice of beer and wine, great food, great staff, brilliant clean facilities, we are going to be back thee I think many many times. Thank you Nicola and Louise for a fantastic occasion.

Just left the restaurant, we had a pleasant evening the food was lovely and service from Nicola was very welcoming. We will definitely return and certainly recommend it to our friends.

Our most recent visit her was for my partners 30th birthday. We were a table of 10 with the majority of us having three courses. The service and the food was very good, with a wide range of dishes on the menu, and a nice relaxed atmosphere to top it off. Ww will definitely go again.

the vegetarian menu is brilliant varied and really interesting with exciting saucesi travel 30 miles to visit when i canthe staff are always pleasant

We went here a group of ladies 27 in number and we had a lovely time. Nice room big portions of food great waitress service not rushed just a nice relaxing time. The chips weren't to my liking but that was personal choice too greasy. The sweet board is very very good.

went for sunday roast . Cold plates , tasteless gravy , yorkshire pud flabby and leathery.The beef was o.k.just a bit chewy . Disappointing, and a lack of interest from the server. Just vote with your feet I suppose.

Visited the site 12 JULY for 1 night very pleasant, had a very good evening meal and lunch the next day, have no complaints food was very good and the staff were polite and efficiant

What a disaster. I do not recommend anyone throwing a birthday party to do it here!Firstly the buffet is definitely over priced for what you get... I had over estimated the number of guests by almost double and there was barely any food left! Not much of a selection either.I was not told at any point that children had to leave by 10pm - seeing as the person who's surprise party it was has 3 children this was infuriating! She had to leave too so the party finished much earlier than it should have done! I have emailed the Wyke down a couple of times already and still no response. Absolutely terrible - just don't bother.

we have recently been in here on a weekly basis, the pub offers an extensive menu. good food at a reasonable price added facilities are the caravan/camping site, pool and golf range.would recommend this pub

Went for lunch with friends. Service friendly and within reasonable time. We all ordered different meals and to be honest I would have been happy eating any of them, they all looked so good. I had the lamb and it was absolutely delicious. Was expecting a slightly spicy sauce with it, which I didn't get but the sauce that came with it was superb and not a disappointment (I may have misread the menu). The chips were fresh - lovely and crispy which is always a plus. All in all a good experience. This was my first visit but it certainly won't be my last.

Whilst the food at the wyke down was acceptable the prices are well above what they should be. I paid £17 for an 8oz steak (which was only about 6oz after the fat was removed) with a small jacket potato 3 mushrooms and a tomato and salad. I have been to finer establishments where a steak is less money. My friend had a ham salad which had three slices of ham and that cost her £8. Whilst the food was cooked well I was very disapointed at the value for money.

This is one of the best restaurants around Andover. The food is always tasty and plenty of choice at a good price. The staff work hard and are always very pleasant. Definitely one for you to try.

The food is always fantastic, fresh and hot. The staff are always very friendly. It's a lovely picturesque location. Absolutely love it here :)

Great food and some interesting decor on the walls even had a practice on the driving range before diner.

Really good facilities excellent for families and lunch menu was excellent the staff were very helpful will use the site and pub restraunt again in the future

Lovely home cooked food - very reasonably priced. Fresh and hot. Thoroughly recommended! Staff friendly and helpful

A place with a chef, not some PLC chain with an ever changing staff with only basic food hygiene certificates , choose restaurant or bar surroundings, I've heard they raise there own beef steaks ! Worth a visit,- camping available adjacent and also,a golf driving range a breath away

Went here today for a birthday lunch, over 20 of us. All the food was freshly cooked, no frozen rubbish. We all got our food on time and together, they were all smiling and couldn't do enough to help. Will go again for sure.

Went here Sunday 12th April.Good food and portions size.Good service,not the main menu a Sunday menu but was fine.Four different meals and were all very nice at a reasonable price.Yes i would recommend.

Went here last year for a 40th wedding anniversary and was treated with a friendly courteous service. Called in for a meal with our daughter and her partner and the food was first class served with a smile by a real friendly young lady who treated us all with respect. The lady who was working on the Mother's day booking was also very friendly and said that they 300 covers that day which says it all. Give good food and good service and people will come.
