The best restaurants serving British food in South East

I like Fuggles but there are times I wonder if I'm in a crèche or a dog kennel. A great selection of beers and a pleasant atmosphere occasionally interrupted by a dog bark. As a parent of a young child I personally prefer bars to be adult spaces. The fact it remains one of my go to bars demonstrates the minor irritations aren't sufficient to deter me.

We made our own atmosphere due to it being a very special birthday for my mum You need to be warned to go there hungry as all 11 of us struggled to finish our dinners Service was spot on and should be credited to the team We will be back next year

Great food and fantastic friendly service in this wonderful historic building. This was a real highlight in our holiday in the south.

Beautifully kept pub with a fabulous chef! Hubby and I were passing through on a road trip, googled local places to eat and chose to try this one. Was a pleasant atmosphere, plenty of choices on the menu, friendly staff, dog friendly with clean toilets. Hubby chose hunters chicken and said it was the best he'd eaten. I had the vegan curry which was absolutely delicious. Ask for the separate vegetarian/vegan menu there's lots to choose from. Really pleased with our meal and will definitely return when in the area.

We have been visiting this place for quite a few years and it never disappoints!

One of the best in the New Forest.. can't wait to go back

Lovely little independent. Highly recommend. Interesting menu, very friendly but not intrusive service. Nice ambience

Exceptional food and service This my third visit and it's a place I know I can come and the food is amazing. Highly recommend popping in for a meal with the family.

The food was delicious, as always, the service was so warm and friendly and the atmosphere perfect for a birthday night out. Really enjoyed it - thank you Boys Hall!

The food was not great, and some super strange vibes from one of the waiters/bartenders on Friday night. He gave half of our table their drinks/food for free and the other half paid as normal. Acted generally odd/stared a lot/listened in on our conversations and made some of us a bit uncomfortable. The other bartender was friendly, but can't say I'd ever come back, which is a shame as it's super local to us.

The atmosphere was so good and the team who looked after us were delightfully friendly. We had fish which was superb! The wine was top just right and reasonable.

Great cinemas, really comfortable, well run, friendly staff and there's a bar to take a drink in with you to enjoy the movie.

Super gezellige tea room met een echt engels ontbijt. Tijdens onze eerste vakantie in de UK heb en we hier een ontbijt gegeten. Erg vriendelijk personeel en lekker eten.

One of the best roast dinners we have ever had. We had the roast sharing platter and it was excellent. Meat was perfectly cooked, and the potatoes were amazing. The platter came with plenty of trimmings, which were all great. I especially enjoyed the roast carrot and the red cabbage. A very filling meal, we didn’t need dessert.

Good old fish and chips freshly cooked good tast modern clean and friendly staff. Must be the oldest chippy in the town. Highly recommended.
