The best restaurants serving British food in Anna Test Valley South East

Lovely evening in the Crook & Shears last night. Great choice of food and well presented. The staff are wonderful and brilliant choice of ales.

We came here for lunch after going to a recommended pub that was closed. A very good find. Courteous welcome and good menu. I chose lasagne. There was plenty of food, all very hot, and well garnished with salads. Good value for money at today's prices. A good find.

Great pub now that Flapper & Jean are running it ! Good atmosphere.I’m from the village but have been in Dubai for last 10 years and it’s nice to come back to some friendly faces a working mans pub with good atmosphere and nice outdoor area when the sun is shining! And watching the World Cup from here was the perfect spot :)Lots of potential look forward to seeing the progress when back again.

We booked here as a Birthday Meal and pre warned when booking that in the party we had a Gluten Free Allergy requirement. When booking in at the Restaurant we asked for a Gluten Free Menu. Our order was taken and within the 5 for £20 starters requested 2 lots of GF Garlic Bread. When the starters came out all were on one platter and not separated and after a couple of minutes waiting requested plates to be able to eat/share the food and at this point was told 'by the way the Garlic Bread is not Gluten Free, we didn't have any'. Thankfully my son had not started to eat!!! We then asked for the Food to be taken away and was brought back 10 minutes later as 2 no Gluten Free Buns toasted with Garlic Butter. The main meal of a Burger and Chips came out with the same bun, which was not eaten as already had enough...... Safe to say the 10% added service fee we took off. Very disappointed.

A local Pub for local people, great beer and good home cooked no frills fayre. Centre of the community

Wow, we t here on recommendation and I was so happy, the food was excellent very good price, had lunch and pudding and a drink each, the staff were lovely and friendly, when in Andover again I would Def go back Thank you for a lovely afternoon

Amazing pub with great staff and delicious food. We came as a table of eight for Dinner, with one having an allergy. They have a tablet that you can select allergens and it provides you with items on the menu you can eat, which is brilliant. The food is lovely with lots of options. Shout out to Jess, who was amazing throughout our stay!! We have already booked again for a family birthday meal in December. P.S Is the Shepherds Pie with Lamb coming back on the menu? :)
