The best restaurants serving British food in Hart South East

Myself and 15 colleagues had lunch at this lovely bistro. it wasn't just great food and a great venue but the welcoming, helpful staff made it such an enjoyable occasion. Can't wait to visit again, they can cater for two people or parties and they have loads of events too. We'll be back, thank you for a lovely afternoon.

Me and my mum went here yesterday for Mother’s Day afternoon tea A great atmosphere as usual as we are regular customers here The sandwiches were freshly made and delicious What can I say about the cakes and scones, just yummy The ladies work so hard and very attentive So I thank you again Debbie and team We will see you again very soon

Great food at good prices, nice staff. Good quality coffee and food. Also, I’m having to write this extra bit to take me over 100 letters

Great little cafe, the owner was courteous, sweet and helpful, the indoor seats are comfy, there's lots of items around the table which are for sale. Things like pictures, postcards, signs and things for your garden. The coffee was lovely and so was the food which is all freshly prepared. Would definitely recommend this place if you're in the area, and will definitely go back again.

My wife and I have Jackie and Dave betsworth have been comining here for three years now with our son paul and his partner Lauren and we can honestley say we have had most of the menue which has not just been great but has been totally outstanding infact unbelievabel!! This is the best pub for atmosphere and relaxation in this area so thank you Caroline and graham and that wounderfull team who you employ. Any person who slates this pub is a complete moron as we highly recomend this place and garentee you wont be dissapointed xx

This is what a pub should be like. Great atmosphere, full of village locals and a proper landlord who knows what he is doing. 10/10.

Fairly average fish and chip shop - I’ve had worse but I’ve definitely had better. The chips weren’t very well cooked quite long enough being a bit soggy with no crispness, and the cod had quite a thick batter that was a bit stodgy on the inside; both were quite greasy. The fish itself tasted ok, but completely disintegrated as soon as a knife and fork touched it. The fish was already cooked when I came into the shop but I was assured it was recently cooked (they would say that wouldn’t they?) Cod, small chips and mushy peas cost £10.50. The portion sizes were generous. The food was placed in a plastic bag rather than a paper one which is never a good sign, and would have made it go even soggier if I didn’t remove it as soon as I got to the car. Ok if you’re local and don’t want too drive far but I certainly wouldn’t go out of my way to get food from here when there are several better options such as Skippers not far away.

We had an absolute lovely bank holiday weekend ruined by our choice to stop in this pub on the way home from seeing family for Easter. We all licked our lips at the sound of a Sunday roast on Easter Sunday. Unfortunately this decision has put us off stopping at any other green king flaming grills ever again. Our Sunday meats was stone cold veg was over cooked Yorkshire puddings was rock solid & the gravy just tasted like pure gravy powder and salty. We wanted to make a complaint and hopefully someone could have gave us a reason to why we was being served such terrible food on a bank holiday weekend. There was no manger around & no duty manager just a man on the bar so we just left a swore never to step food in a flaming grill again & shall be telling everyone we know to do the same.. Us giving the one star is generous

We had a lovely meal with great service. Amanda, our waitress, was great. She gave good advice on food choices, and was very friendly and chatty.

Unfortunately Daisy’s Tea Room is closing for good on 25th May 2022 although Serendipity will continue to trade. Make the most of this quaint tea room while you can.

Having fantastic reviews in The Basingstoke Gazette as ‘The Mutton one of the best pubs for a roast in England’, our group of 5 friends booked for Sunday lunch. We all ordered the Sunday roast which was either beef, lamb or vegetarian. Other items were available on the menu but traditionally on Sundays a roast always ‘fits the bill’. I would however have liked the option of chicken as not everyone likes to eat red meat or a non-meat alternative. Cooking three meats is no greater a task than cooking two by professional chefs surely? Our plates were delivered in due course, but I was disappointed as the Yorkshire pudding was somewhat overcooked for my liking and not crisp, also I would have liked another slice of meat for the price. A bowl of steaming vegetables (red cabbage, carrots and green cabbage) looked fresh and inviting. Followed by a bowl of roast potatoes and two small jugs of gravy. We asked for plenty of horseradish sauce for the table but had to request again as the first was only enough for one person. The roast was alright but nothing outstanding or special and we had to ask for another bowl of green cabbage as there was simply not enough for the table of our size. We received another standard bowl of red cabbage, carrots and green cabbage, so subsequently only the green cabbage was consumed. I did note a table of two received the same quantity of potatoes and vegetables as we did for a table for 5 but we were charged extra for vegetables we didn’t request. I was not responsible for sorting the bill and didn’t know until afterwards. Another jug or larger jugs of gravy to accommodate the number of guests should also have been taken into consideration as again not enough for the size of our table. One size does not fit all in this case. A few in our party including myself said the potatoes were bland, not seasoned correctly and were not homemade but tasted as from a frozen catering bag for convenience’s sake. A couple of desserts were ordered which were nice. The bill was expensive for the quality and quantity including the drinks. Table water was requested and then we had to ask for ice and only a small cup size portion was provided. The pub itself was very cosy, a bit too warm in my opinion and heaving full of customers which was just a little tight for comfort and felt squeezed with bottoms on seats! The power of publicity is what made us venture to The Mutton anyway and no doubt other guests too. Outside the weather was wild, but on arrival there was no disabled parking spaces, so we had to walk through the car park covered in wet leaves which is hazardous and simply dangerous to everyone let alone physically disabled customers. Understandably, cleaning up constantly falling leaves is a huge task itself, but the health and safety of customers should be paramount and is the full responsibility of the venue. Allotted disabled bays are simply a ‘paint job’ and expected so spending x, y & z on internal renovations should not distract from external facilities to be considered also. Would I/we visit again? No plans to in the future but not saying never. We dine out a lot and have had better quality and quantity of Sunday lunches in various public houses in the close vicinity of which are far better value. Good luck nevertheless to The Mutton and thank you to the lovely hosting and waiting staff who were all fantastic.

Simply put, the best fish and chips in fleet! Staff have always been friendly and over the years things haven’t changed. Still polite, still friendly and still keeping very busy! I’m not surprised to see the queue going out the door upon arrival. Very popular and well worth the wait and £££. Happily recommend to anyone!

Love love ❤️ this cozy, relaxing atmosphere in this delightful place everyone is friendly service is prompt and efficient and the food is delicious I've eaten here a few times and never been disappointed they even cater for gluten free with separate fryer it was ace ! I have not had fries in a long time 🤣 I'm working my way through the menu online downside. I'm not local, so I have to drive or get a designated driver for my cheeky treat. See you soon, guys one very happy customer 😀.

Stunning historical house which is now a great hotel.. delicious food with a very good set menu, reasonable wine list, and the best breakfast buffet I've had recently...

I was travelling early during the week and decided to stop off at Fleet services on the M3 at around 7am. Not many places were open at that time. However, Harry Ramsden were offering cooked breakfasts. It was served very quickly and the items were served hot. Great to also see black pudding on the menu.
