The best restaurants in Barton New Forest South East

Lovely location fantastic views good drinks selection

Our first time, and we were not disappointed! From the friendly welcome, the service and the food, everything was lovely. I think the chefs put a lot of thought into their menu, the flavours, and presentation is a delight. The best part is that it's not stupidly over priced! We will definitely be coming back.

Ordered kebab and chips for home delivery. Expected to wait 60 mins. Food came delivered by a lovely friendly lady within 45 mins. The portion was larger than I thought, it was all good, tasty, fresh and exactly what I ordered

Great food place by the beach. Table service, quick delivery of drinks and food and very tasty.

The House Martin in New Milton is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the warm, cozy atmosphere which at the same time feels open and inviting thanks to the high ceilings and abundance of natural light. Now, let’s talk about the food – the brisket burger was undoubtedly the best I’ve ever had! Juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection, it’s worth visiting for that alone. The rest of the menu looked just as tempting too. A special shoutout has to go to Ashley. He was brilliant – super friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. His service really stood out and made the whole experience even better. The service was fast, the staff were lovely, and the overall vibe was spot on. Whether you’re local or just passing through, I can’t recommend the House Martin enough. It’s a fantastic spot for great food and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Popped in for lunch on a rainy Saturday. Staff were all really welcoming and friendly. Food was delicious - mum said it was the best fish finger sandwich she’d ever had. My jacket potato was one of the best I’ve ever had too and I’m an obsessive about JPs! Service was really quick. Great range of light lunch options and bigger meals and pizzas. Gluten free options. On a sunny day, there is a lovely terrace overlooking the beach. Really recommend

Had a fantastic Sunday roast dinner in the pub with my family and the 3 meats selections were superb. Wide range of Vegetables and potatoes, etc Meal wasn’t expensive and it was worth every penny. It’s not La a carte restaurant but a well presented roast dinner and met all expectations.

Arrived on Sunday 27th October, 8.30 ish on a recommendation. Ordered two portions of chips. Sadly, he didn't do fresh chips. We got chips that had been in the storage area too long, so, they were soggy and dripping in grease!. Chips are not cheap anymore , will not return.

Waited 3 hours for our meals which both arrived cold and incomplete. I phoned the shop who said they would send the missing items straight away, waited another hour, nothing turned up, phoned them again to be told the girl on the phone I spoke to hadn’t told them to bring them. Offered to give me some next time. I said no way, someone went without what they ordered and paid for and the food that we were sent was stone cold. Not acceptable, they only offered to refund for part of the order. Terrible customer service, will never use again. Inedible cold slop!

We had a takeaway from Oliver’s last week which was delivered to our home. The meal was delicious, but we were charged £1 for delivery, when on their website it is advertised as Free delivery on orders over £15 within a 2 mile radius. I checked the bill later on and saw that we had been charged £1 for delivery even though the meal was over £15. As we only live about half a mile away I telephoned to query this and was told because the price of petrol had gone up everyone was now being charged £1 for delivery. I don’t mind paying £1 but I should have been told this when I ordered the food and they shouldn’t advertise free delivery on their website anymore. We have used them many times in the past and have never had any complaints before. This is why I am only giving them 4 ****

This is the first time we have been able to book the brasserie here thanks to Covid. The entrance via the clubhouse almost made us turn back, with rubbish strewn over tables and the floor, but as we wound our way through a more mellow bar area, we eventually came to this bright and modern restaurant. Too bright really and the room would really benefit from dimming the lights and real candles on the tables, so it felt more like a brasserie than a café. That said, it is surprisingly attractive and pleasantly furnished. The menu is not as published online, which was disappointing, but the options were interesting. We shared a Garden platter and a family platter and also had one soft shell crab and a lamb kofte. The Garden platter was very good with light felafel, tasty onion bhajis, and really good home-made hummus. The family platter was also very good apart from the Calamari which were very rubbery. The softshell crab, which is rarely seen in local restaurants, and the kofte were good too. Most had burgers and chips for mains which were ‘yummy’ both chips and burgers. The tuna steak was enjoyed but was said to taste like beef! I had the South Asian curry. It looked really dull with no attempt to make the dish look attractive. A pile of boiled rice on the plate and a bowl of curry with a handful of chopped cooked chicken thrown in the top and not even stirred in. However, this was gorgeous and one of the most flavoursome curries I have eaten. The waitresses made us laugh as there were three Sauvignons on the menu and we chose the Chilean. The waitress wasn’t sure if they had any and asked for our second choice, so we picked the New Zealand. We got the Australian, but it was fine so we didn’t say anything. We ordered a second bottle and this time we got the Chilean wine! This was a very pleasant meal and with a bit more atmosphere this would be a very good night out. I think the menu is perhaps a bit dear and too fancy for the residents as there were only three tables taken – they need to push this place some more with a few specials nights maybe?

One of the best Indian restaurants in the area. Lots of spice

Idk about this, they randomly called me, I live in Brighton, never been here

We had coffee and cake in the cafe that is part of Pebble Beach. The lady running the cafe and her staff were really efficient and friendly. The coffee was great and the two cakes we had were lovely with large portions. The cafe is definitely dog friendly to the point they treat any dogs with treats and water. Spotlessly clean and highly recommended.

This is a great pub with lovely staff. The new owners (a year or so ago) have really turned this pub around. It is not an essential part of the local community. Good beer and great food!
