The best restaurants serving British food in Brockenhurst and Forest South East New Forest South East

This restaurant is an absolute nightmare. The coffee is dreadful, and it’s obvious they have no idea how to make it properly. But the worst part is the staff – they are rude, unfriendly, and completely disrespectful. These people have no place in the restaurant business. Their behaviour is appalling, and they don’t deserve to run this establishment. I strongly advise against visiting this place. It’s a complete disappointment!

The food was great but the owner/ manager was insulting and rude. First of all when my grandson’s legs wouldn’t fit under a table due to it having a ledge around it we asked if we could move tables ( the place was empty) he said a table is a table so move if you must, secondly we asked if they did garlic bread as my eight year old granddaughter enjoys it as a starter and he scoffed at us saying ‘this isn’t a Harvester’ and we don’t have processed grated cheese (we didn’t ask for cheese garlic bread and surely any chef can make a price garlic bread! He was condescending to say the least - and for his information we have never ate at a Harvester but I’m sure their staff would be better mannered. Unfortunately my family and I were too taken aback to challenge him. Then throughout the meal he was stood in the restaurant talking very loudly on his phone - a totally rude man! Maybe he just does not like people from the north and thinks we live on fast food restaurant food? However he does have an excellent chef as the food was very good.

Lovely forest pub with a good atmosphere. Had an excellent Sunday lunch of Turkey and Roast beef with their signature Yorkshire pudding with a sausage and pat of stuffing inside. Staff very friendly and helpful. Good value for money.

Very clean good food good service.

Had an amazing family lunch here. The fish and chips and the pie off the day was amazing. My daughter had the Goan curry. She was surprised as to how good it was.

Called here for lunch with family after our dog walk, great location however the service was not good, had to remind the waitress as she had forgotten the potatoes and the mayonnaise to go with my sons fish cake which did seem to be lacking fish.

Quite disappointed that my lunch had to come from the kiddies menu, you would have thought that in this age there would have been a vegetarian sandwich choice!

Food was rubbish, really bad. Thai red curry was not a Thai red curry. Strange unpleasant inedible mess. Tasted like off coconut milk was used. Vile. Chips both undercooked and greasy. Prices were high. A total waste of money, more of a con, taking £60 off of us for that crap. Nothing good at all about the food here I’m sorry to say. A dreadful experience - avoid.

WENT FOR LUNCH .VERY EXPENSIVE. TAP WATER SMELT AND TASTED OF BLEACH.SALAD WITH QUICHE WAS HARD WHITE CABBAGE AND POTATO SALAD WITH A PERFUMED FLAVOUR COFFEE MOSTLY FROTH.FRONT OF HOUSE WAS EXTREMELY RUDE.AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE.
