The best restaurants serving British food in Test Valley South East

Very impressed, we were found a table on a busy night even though we hadn't booked. The staff were extremely attentive and made us feel welcome. The food arrived quickly and was very tasty. All in all a good experience

Great place, nice beer and people very friendly. Beautiful pretty Village. 👍

Popped in on the off chance to avoid the rain. Was greeted by friendly bar staff. Will be back

Awful slow service every time I have visited (maybe 5 times in the past 2 years), the food is good which is why I have been back however I booked here for a Christmas meal and our order was never put through. After 1.15 hours I queried where are food was to be told the server did not put it through the system. I was advised the manager will be over to speak to us but never turned up, we then had to ask another 3 times if our food was coming, we arrived at 7.15pm and our food arrived at 9pm. Staff at the bar were more bothered about their conversation than helping our situation which normal here. Feedback is apparently given to staff but each time I go the service is terrible, I will also try to support local business and give a lot of chances as due to the climate I feel this is important however I wont be visiting or recommending anymore. My mother in law also attended this week and said how poor the food was and the service was again awful. I'd recommend actually speaking with the manager, if she had come over, apologised, offered something to tide us over we wouldn't have thought anything of it. At least the mishap was trying to be rectified but nothing, just ignored us. Real shame.

Brilliant roast dinner highly recommended! With a lovely atmosphere

the southampton arms is the best pub in andover, the bartenders and the regulars create a sense of community in this dry little town, i would recommend it to anyone!!

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

We came for a Sunday Roast and it was divine. Despite being very busy inside the food came and quickly and was piping hot. The roast was well balanced with appropriate portions of each element. The mean was amazing though, with our table getting a variety I couldn’t recommend one more than the other as they were all so good. The gravy was thick and rich and happy to offer more when asked (not necessarily needed however). The roast dinner was very reasonably priced and the staff were super friendly and nice as well. We arrived having not booked and the staff were incredibly accommodating but when coming again I would recommend booking before hand.

A group of us played skittles at the Black Horse. The buffet lunch provided for us was excellent. The skittle alley was great. The staff were welcoming, very helpful and friendly.

Nice atmosphere and the staff were friendly and available. The food was bang average, eggs over cooked and the plates overall just looked a bit simple and plain. The price however was very good, so it makes sense. Wouldn't expect fine dining at these prices by any means. Great for a social meal out with some friends when you just want a bit of atmosphere and some typical pub food, but probably not for anything more.

Nice staff, make you feel welcome.

I was really looking forward to eating here and I had heard really good things. I would love to give a good review but never got past the front door! Staying at the hotel nearby and advised food provided at the Moldy Fig. Went in, and no one around, and it looked closed. Waited for a few minutes to see if anyone showed. After a bit, some turned up but was not interested in seeing if I needed assistance and hurried into the back office, giving no acknowledgement. Hopefully, this is a one-off and just bad timings. UPDATE. So breakfast was a lot better, hot food ordered to your table and a good choice of other foods. The service was very good. I have raised some scores to reflect this.

Read the reviews after booking and we're very close to cancelling the booking due to the negative comments. I'm so glad that we didn't. The service and the food was wonderful. We will all be back.

The White Horse Hotel did us proud for our wedding in October. Susanna and Heather on site and Rima in head office were consistently helpful and everything went perfectly on the day. We chose the "fairytale" package which was very good value. The food was excellent and particularly plentiful in the evening buffet. The "penthouse" honeymoon suite for our first night was very spacious and well furnished. It's just a shame we didn't spent more than one night in it. But some of our guests booked extra nights while they were there, which is a good recommendation.

We had a lovely meal here & would go again . 6-12-24 Glad this pub is back open again. And again the food was fab !
