The best restaurants serving British food in The Alresfords Winchester South East

My 16 year old son and I enjoyed lovely freshly made sandwiches, cup of tea and conversation with Sarah. We'll go back the next time we visit Alresford.

Probably my most favourite pub in Hampshire. Another wonderful evening. The steak was cooked to perfection. Delicious. No wonder so many of my friends rate this pub so highly!

We stopped for coffee and cake and struggled to find a seat, number control of customers was not controlled and it wasn’t a relaxing morning break. We will not be re visiting

We had booked a late lunch at the Horse and Groom, and just as we were leaving the poor chap phoned to see if we were still coming – the weather was dreadful, and most people were cancelling. Nevertheless, we went ahead, though we didn't find many customers in the pub. Curiously, we were directed to a very small table for two, but when we looked dubious we were given a choice of others. For those who like armchairs by a roaring fire, those are available too. We both had the chicken liver pâté to start; the chutney was very good. Then my husband had ham, egg and chips and I had a sort of 'thai' chicken curry. It was made with thigh, not breast meat – guess that's OK... The sauce was good and spicy, but it didn't seem to have penetrated to the meat. Both of us found our portions far too large; I only finished about two-thirds of the meat. No room for pudding. The young staff were pleasant and welcoming, and service was friendly and efficient. However, sorry but I really don't like being addressed as 'guys'! A small point, but relevant in this part of the country – please correct the spelling of 'chalk' in 'chalk stream trout'!

Proper coaching inn for proper folk. Very welcoming. The food is exemplary from a broad enough menu. Accessible for families and wheelchair users. Just terrific all round.

This was my first experience of the Long Barn, and it did not disappoint. What a gorgeous venue! So many beautiful gifts to choose from. We specifically went there for the food as we'd heard from friends that it was a lovely place to go, and they were right. We all had the chicken risotto, and I loved every delicious mouthful. I asked the waiter if I could have the recipe, and he said he'd send it (though I haven't yet received it). All I can say is it's the best risotto I've ever had. Totally different to the truffle risotto or the beetroot and goats cheese ones I make. Just pure yumminess. The only negative I would say is, if the risotto were not on the menu there was nothing else that really grabbed us that we wanted to eat... That said, this visit deserves a five star. We will be back.

Amazing experience all around. Food was exquisite and service impeccable. Haggis scotch eggs, Chateaubriand, garlic roasted celeriac, chocolate mousse….. wonderful.

Best value little cafe, hiden away in the centre of town , great service food and drinks very good, great hot chocolate drink.

Really great Alresford pub with wonderful food and roaring log fires and friendly, welcoming staff. Looking forward to Christmas lunch there! ☺️

Absolutely exceptional experience! We were a group of 8 without a booking at lunch time on a Saturday, and the hostess very kindly found us two tables next to each other. The food was absolutely exceptional (I had the lamb rump), service was impeccable. We will definitely be back - I suspect they do an outstanding Sunday roast and I want to try it!

Stayed hear overnight in the campervan which was excellent. Had a meal in the pub. A little disappointed with the food menu.
