The best restaurants serving British food in Alverstoke Gosport South East

Fantastic location serving first class food, overlooking the Isle Of Wight. Food was superb and the staff are warm and welcoming, dogs are offered a warm welcome too. If your in the area it’s a must 👌5⭐️

Fantastic overnight stay at an independent hotel. Wanted for nothing and we’re well looked after by Kirsty. The full English over delivered and is highly recommended.

We went as a family for breakfast at the Alverbank. The menu promises a lot but sadly we felt very underwhelmed by the time we had finished. I will start with a positive. My daughter had the Nutella pancakes which she really enjoyed. The portion size was good and was presented well. My wife had the Eggs Benedict. This is where things started to go wrong. She asked for her poached eggs to be runny. When this arrived, one of the eggs was solid and the other only slightly runny. The eggs also had a very strong vinegar taste, which suggests they did not allow the eggs to drain off effectively. I had the eggs Royale. The salmon was good, however my eggs also had a strong vinegar taste. At no point was a checkback made by the waitress after the food was delivered, therefore we were unable to raise an issue. Drinks - my wife thought the coffee was very good, however my orange juice was most definetely from a carton, and not a good quality one at that. I would have expected fresh orange juice based upon the experience they are trying to portray and the price they charged. Service - the team were friendly enough, but service was very slow. We were the only people in the restaurant area but breakfast took a long time to come out, and had to wait a fair amount of time after we had finished our meal to request the bill. Setting - the venue is in a lovely location and has fantastic views over the solent, but is let down by some basic things. Some of the decor is looking tired, and the window we were sat by was covered in cobwebs and dead flies. Overall a disappointing experience - when you pay over £50 for breakfast for 3 people, i would expect more than what was delivered.

Not impressed with the service or food. The guy taking our order should attend lessons in customer service, he was rude but definitely lacking in social skills. The chips were OK but needed a few mins more cooking. The latte was only warm and went quick very quickly. We won't be returning there. We often go to Lee on Solent cafes, much better service and food.
