The best restaurants in Bransgore and Burley New Forest South East

Was part of a group of 8 who visited for lunch. The staff were teally good and attentive. The menu and food was excellent. Sadly there was a problem as a couple of our party are Gluten Free. There was mo indication of what could be served as Gluten Free but unbelievably the didnt have any GF bread. Surely a loaf could be kept in a freezer and slices from it toasted from frozen to be served with pate etc or used instead of a slice of baguette with other dishes that included bread in them.very disappointing

We had our wedding here on the 28 August 2024. What a fabulous day from start to finish. Everything was perfect. Tom and his staff were very professional but friendly and accommodating. All our guest guests thought it was the perfect venue very relaxed. Even the weather was perfect and we were able to have our ceremony outside, but even if we needed to be inside the venue would still have been perfect. A really big thank you to Tom and his team for making our special day perfect.

Had a very good Sunday lunch today. We were a party of 13 and the staff looked after us really well. Friendly and efficient throughout. Food excellent and plenty of it. Well done to all.

Had the normal good fare at this establishment, together with a 25% discount voucher. Today was a quiet day but nevertheless the food was still good and top value for money. Summer months we frequent the Toby at Hinton at least once a month and usually 2 or 3 times.

What a lovely find. Despite numerous visits to the New Forest, this was our first visit and certainly won't be our last. Delicious home made sausage roll and coronation chicken jacket potato. Both delicious and very generous portions. The staff are amazing and their love for their job shines through. Thank you - we will return.

Lovely meal at the Carpenters Arms. Portion size was massive & all hot, freshly cooked. Highly recommend

Excellent food and service. Asked to taste 3 different flavours of cider before deciding which one we wanted. They obliged and brought them to us in the cutest miniature glasses. A lovely touch was also being brought a little glass of nuts when we arrived.

Hi there, protective Cat and Fiddle researchers. My visit last was a point of technically, om the menu it makes reference to having oatmeal biscuits with a coffee ☕️ But guess what...? you have to ask for them, or you don't get. Other than that, service as expected nowadays. Have 😁

Brilliant Sunday roast. Attentive staff. Great value.

My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights recen tly, we had a great time and were made to feel very welcome by all the staff. The breakfast and evening meals were both very tasty with excellent service. We would happily recommend this country pub for a visit for it's location, value for money and friendly staff.

Food was ok but overpriced. Service was incredibly slow. Food took about an hour to arrive, on a Sunday with really not many people there. Nice place though.

Visited here on a sunny weekday in the first week of school Easter holidays. It was quite quiet when we first arrived & we had the choice of where to sit. Personally,I found the table service side & non table service side options of where to sit a bit confusing. I would say the staff did too as they were constantly running around looking after both sides 🤔 On that point the staff got busier & busier, from what I could tell only 2 staff were working the whole area (although a couple of other staff members did serve food to tables) They definitely need more staff. Food was okay & nicely presented. Average prices for location.

Arrive at 13.30 6 people drinks and food order straight away but waiting 45 mimutes for starters -5 starters arrived and waiting for last one for ages - soup - no spoon so waiting again- half way through starters drinks arrived wine but no glasses then main course in different stages one person nearly finished and other still waiting food was cold side vegetables arrived when we nearly done so disappointed and pudding we order was banana toffee pie but arrive block of frozen ice cover with chocolate such lovely location but terrible food

Disappointed to discover they have closed their indoor seating area, for good it seems, and only offer take away service. Which for disabled persons, means struggling with your food and drink to outdoor only benches some 20 yards from the cafe entrance.
