The best restaurants serving British food in Liss East Hampshire South East

There are insufficient superlatives to describe the quality of food, service, and the overall atmosphere at this remarkable restaurant. Thanks to Evi, who runs the front of house, and Nathan, the world class chef for an excellent dining experience.

We visited for a pre-Xmas Sunday lunch on the basis of the many favourable comments from other locals. The car park is full of deep potholes, full of muddy water which was not a great start. Inside, the welcome was friendly enough, but my immediate impression was how cold it was. Incredibly for a freezing winter day, the large fire was not on and we were seated in a lower dining area next to a drafty window. The cold temperatures were not helped by other people's kids repeatedly going in and out the door to the play area and not closing it. I had to go back to my car to fetch a fleece as it was so cold. According to the waitress, the fire cannot be used because it gets too smoky. Hello...? If you are running a hospitality business, maybe you should call in a chimney sweep and get it fixed? Having said that, and the only reason I gave it as much as three stars, was that the food was very good indeed and the people working there were friendly and attentive.

Tried to have lunch here today. It was lunchtime and with the relatively small choice of meals and snacks available, (breakfast stops at 11:30am) it would have been reasonable to assume that demand could be met. Wrong! With only three quarters of tables occupied, my first choice of meal was unavailable due to a lack of potatoes. So, having had to choose another dish, twenty minutes passed before being informed that an ingredient for that was missing. I found this unacceptable and left having been refunded for the inconvenience of having to put up with such shoddy service. I was not the only complainant and something needs doing to improve service in this establishment.
