The best restaurants in New Forest South East

Absolutely love the food here. The chef Jason is a master class chef! He always whips something up that makes me super happy - and I'm vegan

We had a really lovely three course lunch here today. The food was excellent and the waiting staff/students were all so polite and helpful. I really recommend it.

Late afternoon visit on a lousy weather day with the grandchildren after school Quiet level of business but atmosphere Ok & the one team member very helpful , efficient & effective. Range of ice creams not up to their normal high number but quality & presentation of over 20 flavours anyway was good The pancakes / seasonal waffles & cones that we all had the good fortune to order were all delicious Service level was good & the seating areas clean & comfortable enough for a short stay. Overall ? - good news despite the premises / fixtures & fittings starting to look jaded / dated Value ? - as expected , not bad Re-visit ? - yes.

A bit disappointed with the experience. Although food was good quality the service felt indifferent and it felt expensive compared to having a proper meal. The usual overpriced wine and small plate restaurants where you leave after less than an hour still hungry and with a massive bill. Really wanted to like this place more as it seemed appealing from the outside. Ended up having a bowl of tomatoes and then some Olives brought at the end of meal after other tapas just when we didn't need them. Never asked if wanted another drink or anything else. Other places in Lymington were far more attentive.

New owners have renamed this place The Paddle. Prices gone up, service gone down and the food is not as good as it was. Shame

Great food the owners are really nice people and quick service they also have the choice to eat in or takeaway which is good for people who have travelled

We are here with the family for Christmas. The 3-course meal on arrival staff welcomed us the food was cooked to perfection thank to Jeff and his team in the kitchen will be coming back soon

This is my favourite cafe in the village. The menu is good but flexible and the service is friendly. It has a small but nice outside seating area including a covered section. The quality of the food is consistently high and the salads are always fresh.

Booked a table for the Friday pizza night. Lovely welcome, lovely wine and delicious pizza . Gluten free option available. Will definitely visit again ( recommend booking)

Great hotel with lots of character

Exceptional food and exceptional service. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others. We regularly holiday in the area but this is the first time we have tried this restaurant. We will most certainly be back! Thank you.

Breakfast experience was great. Service was quick. Delicious food see photos . We stop here on our way to the ferry for the iow so much better than McDonald’s guys.

He vivido en Hythe por muchos años y uso este café semi-regularmente. Nunca he tenido una mala comida. allí y la calidad es tan alta como el valor. Personal muy amable y un gran ambiente. Hoy fuimos a almorzar y lo encontramos lleno, sin embargo Adam y su equipo todavía hicieron tiempo para genializarme y me hicieron sentir muy bienvenido. Así que si usted está buscando un poco de comida de gran relación calidad-precio para comer o para llevar - me gustaría 100% recomendar Adams Café. Un montón de aparcamiento fácil y personal encantador. Gracias de nuevo chicos.

Last visited 6 weeks ago and were disappointed with a 45 minute wait. Gave it another go this morning. Completely ignored by the staff. A gentleman who arrived at the same time placed his order and was eating at the point when we walked out. No consistency. Plenty of staff, but no management of customer flow. There are other places locally who clearly value their customers more. We won’t be giving them yet another chance.

There are many cafes from which to choose , however when we go elsewhere we are left disappointed by the quality of the coffee, but not here. Always a good strong and very tasty coffee, well presented by friendly staff.
