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

Lovely panini, fresh and tasty, plus a great cup of tea and tasty fresh flapjack. Lovely service and great place on the Lymington Quay front.

We dine here most months, always taking the full tasting menu and it changes completely each month which is remarkable considering the size and complexity of the menus and - I assume - a small kitchen! A few days ago we ate the 12 days of Christmas menu which was absolutely amazing, every bite was delicious and the dishes were so imaginative. Stand out dishes were “French Hens” and “Calling Birds”!

A group of us dined here. Some of us had starters of Lobster and Shellfish Bisque and seafood with crab which was beautifully presented. For main courses we enjoyed Monkfish and other fish. Service was excellent as always. The only downside was that it was really cold …

As always the food was delicious and the service very friendly. Gavin goes out of his way to use the highest quality ingredients and will even get liver in for my husband even if it’s not on the menu. Would highly recommend, best Sunday Roast Beef out!

All I can say is the experience was average. Nothing wowed me, the coffee was mediocre and the service was not at all personal.

Amazing local pub. Lots of live music, great food, great staff.

No idea about G.F and D.F. Served a starter as G.F. but was deep fried in there only main fryer that fries all non G.F. restaurant foods. Only one main offered, dressed crab. Which was mixed with some sort of bulk filler! The salad had a bitter vinigar dressing! non G.F. 3 other friends had an ok meal. Of chicken and skate wing.

Steaks came out seared properly on the marble stone for customer to finish off. I find my rib eye to be decent quality and great value (450g). Could do with more green veg options. Had the football on, bit of dukebox, mix of crowds. Seemed very friendly, especially the staff .

A little more expensive than other Wetherspoons. Always great service and food.

Delishes food and drinks, warm, welcoming atmosphere. Really enjoyed the visit here.

I'm not a member but I booked in with Royal Lymington Yacht Club to do RYA Level 3 Dinghy sailing course after doing levels 1 & 2 on the river Thames. The club is very nice with great views and Richard, the instructor leading the course was great and gave the choice of additional things to learn.. I had a great time out on the water and sailing on the solent felt like a real achievment. Proud to be able to say I trained at Royal Lymington Yacht Club and am looking forward to doing RYA First Aid Course in December .

Popped in for a pint and stayed all night. Live band on, good beer and great atmosphere all hosted by the wonderful landlady Yvonne and her partner Alan, thanks guys, cracking night.

Terrible experience. We arrived at 8:00 pm and we’re looking forward to a meal as the place looked fab and we had just arrived on holiday. However on arrival at the bar when we asked for a menu the guy behind the bar said “ we’re not doing food now!” To which I replied “ but the board outside said you serve food until 9:00!”. He replied “ well we’ve been busy today !” A you believe it !!!!!!!! I was at a loss for words but what I should have said is “ surely with the board outside advertising food until 9:00, surely that’s breaking trade descriptions. Appalling attitude !

Food was generally ok although my chips were cold. I couldn’t send them back because there were no staff around to ask. They didn’t spend much time in the restaurant at all. The service was friendly enough but very slow which was surprising when the restaurant was practically empty. We sat with our empty plates for 20 minutes before someone actually noticed. I don’t live in the area but I probably wouldn’t go back which is a shame because my experience in another pub in the same chain in Handcross West Sussex was far superior in every way.
