The best restaurants serving British food in Test Valley South East

I went with my uncle and he mentioned the £1 tea deal about every twenty minutes we were there. He was amazed! I'm gluten, dairy allergies and veggie and describe this as the best kept secret in Romsey. They even do gluten free waffles/pancakes and bagels which is unlike ANYWHERE else. The cost is amazing and the staff so attentive. We were hidden round the corner but they still remembered to check in and offer us a tea refill frequently!

This is a friendly spot for golf and a drink afterwards. Rebecca is running the place and she tracked down some clubs for hire so my son and I could play. The course a bit quirky with 10 holes you loop twice from different tees. Shout out to Carol at the bar, Becky’s husband Karl and his friend Simon that rescued us from the keys locked in our car. This is a very friendly spot. Nice people and a fun golf course!

An awesome place to visit, whether with or without tour dog. This is the friendliest coffee shop for dogs ever, there are treated with the utmost respect, a bed a bowl of water and treats before you order for yourself. Open 6 days a week and the Coffee and food is all to die for

First time at Plough Inn, service was quick, roast portion large and tasty. However, the menu seemed quite pricey, even for our area and beer was average, bit cold for ale I thought.

We stopped here for lunch en route to Somerset The service was excellent and the food very good. My salmon fish cake with hollandaise sauce definitely tasted homemade, my husband said his steak and ale pie was excellent.

We booked this pub based on reviews for a family get together before a brass band concert in Tidworth. It was a revelation. Fantastic menu - plenty of good choices and a specials board. I love places where you keep changing your mind about what to have even when the order taker is hovering. When our food arrived we were very pleased about the presentation on the plate. Really well done. Everyone really enjoyed their meal and found room for desserts - also very good. Well done Lindsay - and thank you.

We're at the point where Christmas and New Year are a distant memory (it's the 2nd of January!) - fancied a proper "old school" breakfast and that's exactly what we got. Generous portions and value for money - I even got to swap my beans for fried tomatoes (not tinned - tho' tinned are available). BTW beans are the vegetable of the Devil! 😀 Independent business (with an automotive theme) with loads of parking in a quiet industrial area, thoroughly recommended and we will be back. Thank you.

Excellent breakfast! The best in andover in my opinion, really friendly helpful staff and a really nice atmosphere, will be visiting again soon 🙂🙂😋😋

Nice Pub - Generally very good but limited Vegetarian Options. Sadly twice now been told Pizza available and visited on the nights they informed us they serve - Friday and Saturday but not an option. If there was a better veggie menu we would visit more often. Staff very pleasant and nice atmosphere

I popped in here first lunch, on a recommendation, and was suitably impressed.....will definitely return. I thoroughly enjoyed the mushrooms on toast with added poached egg - considerably elevated above what you might normally expect! And it's a nice location, particularly if you like people watching.

We ate three breakfasts and suppers and enjoyed the bar as well during our three-night stay. I have to say with all honesty everything was always perfect, from the food to the service. The ambience of the manor also creates a positive mood, classic yet relaxed. We also enjoyed seating outdoors with relaxing green views.

Truly a fantastic and wonderful experience. Bright lovely and an atmosphere that makes you feel like family.

I booked a table for two just the day before and had the most delicious lunch. The Manager was very welcoming and attentive when necessary (which it wasn't!). The waiting staff were delightful, polite, discreet and at no time were we rushed. Our lunch was mouth waveringly good, a real treat, perfect proportions and it was lovely to have a brief chat with the chef on our way out. Thank you very much.

I recently attended a wake at the Hare and Hounds in Charlton Down, and I couldn't speak more highly of the experience. The staff were incredibly kind, respectful, and attentive throughout, making sure everything ran smoothly during what was an emotional time. The food was lovely—fresh, well-presented, and plentiful—and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, offering the perfect space for friends and family to come together and remember a loved one. A heartfelt thank you to everyone at the Hare and Hounds for your care and professionalism.

New chef, fabulous food, great service. We had the scampi and it was the best scampi I’ve had. The landlord is friendly and inviting, highly recommend.
