The best restaurants in Lymington Town New Forest South East

Lovely panini, fresh and tasty, plus a great cup of tea and tasty fresh flapjack. Lovely service and great place on the Lymington Quay front.

It might look like a cafe on the outside (if you can find it), but there’s a proper restaurant with a proper kitchen on the inside. A small but varied menu, good portions and tasty. The chef was out among the guests, taking orders and asking if all ok. Well placed confidence. We would definitely return.

Visited for a quick coffee on 6.11.24. Excellent coffee best we’ve had in a very long time. Surroundings very clean. Would thoroughly recommend. Will be back again.

The best bubble tea I’ve ever had! I tried a pineapple bubble tea with mango flavoured bubbles. It is by far the nicest bubble tea I’ve ever tried. If you are in Lymington and bubble tea then this is the place to go. I also tried the coconut flavoured milk based bubble tea as my wife had that and was equally as delightful.

Well this was our first visit and definitely not the last time . We were made so welcome by a lovely young lady called Ella . Our visit was due to my friends 60th birthday .The food was excellent and the service was to a very high standard well done to the Townhouse

Excellent 5 course tasting menu, superb service and delicious food. Everything was on point and the ambience was lovely.

Best pasties this side of Cornwall . Great place . Well worth it

We'd heard about The Tinker's Granddaughter through a friend and so decided to try it out for ourselves and booked the Sunday Roast Club - we were not disappointed! The service was friendly and welcoming and the food was incredible. It was our first time trying Juicy Marbles steaks and I have to say, they were the best meat substitute I've ever had. The only downside was that the room was quite crammed. We ordered first and by the time our food was served, people were still queuing right behind us to order theirs - which I understand is unavoidable but did hinder the experience a bit. I also treated myself to a tiramisu to take away, which again was the best plant based tiramisu I've had. We loved the experience so much that we've already booked again for June!

Charming, cozy little coffee shop in a lovely location on the high street. Staff are friendly and efficient but I found the prices to be a bit too high. It's a nice place for a treat, but not ideal if you're on a budget or looking for a regular shop for your daily coffee!

Ciao Belli is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere made us feel like we had stepped into a little corner of Italy. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring we had a fantastic dining experience. The food? Simply outstanding! homemade beef lasagna—perfectly layered and rich with authentic Italian taste. The Linguine prawns was another highlight, packed with seafood and a deliciously light white wine sauce. If you're looking for authentic Italian cuisine, excellent service, and a cozy ambiance, Ciao Belli is the place to be. We’ll definitely be coming back! 🍝🍷✨

The Cellar Tasting House & Wine Merchant in Lymington is a hidden gem that offers a cosy and inviting atmosphere. The knowledgeable team, led by owner, provides personalised recommendations that cater to individual tastes and budgets. The establishment maximises its space with a well-curated shop, a welcoming bar, intimate upstairs nooks, and a charming terrace. The extensive selection of wines and gins is impressive, making it one of the few bars worth travelling over an hour to experience. For serious wine and spirit enthusiasts, this is a must-visit destination.

As usual, great food, good service oh and the view is pretty good as well. On this occasion mussels and whitebait to start followed by in-house made fish fingers and beef sandwiches with salad and fries. Worth mentioning the whitebait is not the typical tiny things these of a decent size.

Always a treat to have to have an evening here and never disapppoints, which is why I keep going back. Peter's food is delicious and beautifully presented and Nicola and her front of house team always give a very warm welcome and excellent service. This restaurant has been in business for many years and there's a very good obvious reason for that .Would highly recommend

We liked the look of this restaurant while out looking for something to eat.The staff were friendly, good service and a good vibe.Loved the food choice and different items that we don't normally get in many Indian restaurants. Our meal was absolutely delicious and plentiful, we didn't leave a thing,unfortunately we felt let down by the astronomical price of two large lime and sodas;£11.40. So we would not visit again as we felt ripped off.

Staff were inattentive, slovenly and ill-kempt. Service was slow and food in general of average quality. It was much better 2 years ago.
