The best restaurants serving British food in New Forest South East

Brilliant Sunday roast. Attentive staff. Great value.

Evening meal when staying in the village. Apparently it has recently taken over or revamped by a chain. Couldn't fault the choice of food or drinks . Friendly and attentive staff, quickly served. Dog friendly but not in the actual restaurant area . A large bar area and outside seating area and car park.

Dog friendly hotel. Friendly and helpful staff.

Great Garden, amazing views of the new forest. A few options snacks options for horses and dogs as well! Will definitely be back.

Lunch with an old friend yesterday was excellent. The menu was short but had good choices and the dishes we chose were very good if not excellent. The service was heplful, attentive and polite witouth being intrusive. The price for a our lunches was reasonable. Altogether a most successful and satisfying lunch.

Tuve dos cenas fabulosas y un desayuno los días que este restaurante recién abierto abrió sus puertas y volvería por la comida en un instante. Además de un gran asado, también tienen un buen menú completo, aunque algo limitado, para elegir. Toda la comida estaba caliente, sabrosa y servida a su debido tiempo, así como un carrito de ensaladas donde podía tener todo lo que quisiera. El desayuno del segundo día fue maravilloso, donde de nuevo es todo lo que querías. No te lo pierdas.

Had a lovely meal , friendly staff, great ambiance and Leo was really helpful

Fantastic, especially when Lithium are playing live!

What a disappointment 😟. Poor parking facilities ( the spaces are far too short for a standard family sized vehicles ( leaving the car vulnerable to other passing traffic in the car park). Interior was tired and lacked adequate lighting. Menu appeared very appetising but quality of food was extremely poor - chicken tikka curry lacked any chicken, and rice served cold. Burger and chips were minuscule with a microscopic portion of coleslaw. Mixed grill - very poor quality meat - the steak was so sinus it was inedible. Advised pub is up for sale - hope the new owners runner a better and more atmospheric pub. Definitely won’t be returning under current management.

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.

We have visited this lovely New Forest Pub many times in the last couple of years and is always our go to place for lunch when we have friends visiting.We were a party of four today and as always the service was attentive.Three of us had the Chicken Supreme and one had the Chicken and Ham pie all of which was very well presented and very tasty.Great food and service,whats` not to like

We actually had a few trips here, for a casual drink, then lunch and a Sunday dinner. We couldn't fault the food and friendly welcome. New owners, Maddie and Billy made sure we were happy with food, accommodating a very fussy husband. Service from them and staff was lovely. Thai night food was amazing, thankyou Yada. And Sunday dinner, WoW! I have never seen so much food, and gorgeous.

It was a late lunch so we just shared a cheese and chutney baguette. It came with fries and a small green salad. Firstly, it was a good job we only wanted one to share because it was £11.99. The baguette was nothing special. Quite limited in cheese which was cheaply grated to make it look more. The worst thing was the fries. A horrible brown colour, looked like they had been overcooked or recooked. Sure they were also done in oil that was used for everything and well past its useable date. They were just short of disgusting. My wife wouldn’t eat them because they smelt and tasted of fish. Shame because staff were friendly and drinks fine with what could be a nice beer garden (there was some rubbish waiting to go to the top by the looks of it). Probably won’t be go again and certainly not to eat.

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 !

I last visited the Woolpack when it was under the old ownership in fact left a very positive review last time but on my latest visit under new ownership I was left very disappointed the Sunday lunch was just OK Pork quite dry vegetables not great 1 piece of cauliflower (really) and exspensive for what it was it used to be a more of a traditional Sunday lunch with plenty of vegetables and meat done to a T and good value I appreciate prices have needed to rise a bit please offer good value for money, on a final note the service was very good very attentive.
