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

On a cold February we called in to Arlesford after visiting The Grange. We thought that we just wanted a sandwich but were tempted by the 6oz cheese burgers at only £6.00. They proved to be the largest burgers we have ever had and were supplied by the local butcher. They were well cooked and tasty, the service was excellent, the ladies were chatting to everyone who came in and obviously have a great local trade. At £16 for two burgers and two teas we thought it great value. We’d definitely come again.

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

Just re-opened and it looks very promising. Really welcoming and friendly landlord and lovely waiting team. There’s a definite focus on the food, which didn’t disappoint. We tried the sirloin steak, cooked perfectly and the lovely risotto, creamy and very tasty. We will definitely be back - must try the Sunday roast!

Retains a historic market town feel with an up to date but still classic pub menu. Good choices of drinks and great service

My friend and I shared a day out on Easter Monday. The countryside was at its most glorious, flowers in abundance everywhere. We had booked tickets for the Watercress Line, but allowed time for lunch. Although I hadn't reserved a table, we were fortunate to be accommodated by friendly staff, who could not have been more polite and attentive. The setting is delightful, the food was excellent, accompanied by a pint of local ale. Highly recommended as a relaxing day out.

Pleasant place for lunch with an upmarket gift shop and area selling plants. Friendly staff and unremarkable food. Unfortunately the last couple of times I've been, the prices charged in the shop were higher than those Indicated on the products. I emailed the Long Barn, but no reply. Won't be returning.

What a fantastic experience! Visited this pub on a sunny day in the middle of a hike. The food, vegetables too, were delicious and some declared the best they’d ever eaten!! Cheffing at its best. Try the sweet potatoes 😋. The staff were delightful, the interior modern and welcoming, the outdoor seating and gardens beautifully kept. Thank you folks, we will be back. Soon. 😊

Came across this after taking grandchildren on Watercress Line.Lovely roast dinner for only £7.50 , a Weds special, tasty welsh rarebit too. Reasonable prices.

Beautiful old pub set by the lake; very good quality, honest pub food; the most outstanding service from the waitresses - they are all remarkably friendly and attentive. Only negative was the loud radio in the garden but they did turn it down - so much nicer to hear the various birdlife there and the low chatter of friends on a warm bank holiday! We'll definitely be back it was a treat.

Nice looking pub, no atmosphere , bar staff had no personality.

Absolutely 5 star service by the lovely chap working today. The only reason I’ve scored 4 stars is there was no veggie main option on the kids menu. Veggie nuggets stored in the freezer surely would be a quick and easy fix? Well maintained kids play area. Food was good quality.
