The best restaurants serving Asian food in Lymington Town New Forest South East

We chose this pub as it is part of the Butcombe pubs which we have stayed in before and enjoyed their hospitality. Unfortunately, this one seemed to be in need a makeover. There was an off-putting smell of fried food when we first walked in and this was explained by the fact that they had just finished lunch - fair enough but we stayed there three nights and the smell didn't go away. We ate here on the Wednesday and sadly the meal was not what we expected. My husband had the fish and chips and said they were very oily. We ordered a side of onion rings which were cooked in the same batter which seemed to be extremely thick and cloying. The meal came suspiciously quickly i.e. when we ordered the starters appeared 5 mins later. When the plates were cleared the main course was put in front of us!! I realise that there was only another 3 tables being used and no one else was eating but a slight wait between courses would have been acceptable. We were sitting in a booth which had a large hole torn off the seat (in bad need of a makeover). The room was very clean and beds were very comfortable but chipped paint on the walls makes it look worn. We were teased with the fact that we could enjoy their free wifi but it didn't work in all the time we were there. When we checked in we were told that this was due to the heavy rain but we managed to get wifi in all of the other pubs in Lymington. We stayed 3 nights and the pub was never busy, in fact not many people there at all. I don't think they have replaced their tables since covid times and they were still spaced very far apart. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
