The best restaurants in Ringwood East and Sopley New Forest South East

My second visit. Wish I lived nearer to visit regularly. A lovely menu in Charlotte’s tea rooms for lighter lunches so reasonably priced and delightful staff. Love the garden centre. The inside shop is, unlike most garden centres, very reasonably priced - it’s an Aladdins Cave! I must go back there - never mind the 50 minute drive!!!!

VERY FRIENDLY PUB . FOOD WAS VERY NICE AND JUST A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE.

Stayed with my daughter. Spacious room nice balcony view. Close to highcliff Castle and beach. Free parking. Bed wasn't as comfortable as I wanted. The bathroom was outdated but big. No room service. Upon check in, I was told that the hotel was due to close down for renovation the following week and would be under new management when we opened in a couple of years.

Very pleasant lunch with tasty food, all though quiet it had a nice atmosphere, friendly helpful staff

The food was very nice, but the service we felt was 'lacking'. The menus were already on the table, so we were not informed that there was a range of specials available, but this was not apparent when we ordered. My wife walked up to the bar to get some drinks, and was immediately told to go and sit down, and we'll take your drinks order, but we couldn't choose from what may of been at the bar! Don't even ask about Mocktails! "No we don't do those!" 😞 The specials only came to light when we had to go and locate a member of staff to take our sweet order! These were on little black boards on the wall near where you come in. The atmosphere was ok due to the lack of interaction from the staff.

Good wine and beer and bar service. Food took a long time to arrive although the pub was not that busy , 2pm. Burger was rather dry and shrivelled. The bun was soggy. Chips and coleslaw were ok. The Panini I ordered was disappointing . The streaky bacon was undercooked , not crispy as streaky bacon should be . I couldn’t eat it . The Brie was cold inside . The actual panini was ok Both salads on the plates were uninteresting, just mixed flat lettuce from a bag. Overall a disappointing lunch.

Excellent staff , very helpful and attentive, fabulous food... Can highly recommend the king prawn stir-fry ofc the specials!.... Super pies too... Thanks for a lovely experience...

Four of us went for Sunday lunch at The New Queen Inn today. The food and service were exceptional. Kiran was a standout. He was attentive and engaging. We will definitely return.
