The best restaurants serving Default food in Eastrop Basingstoke and Deane South East

I've been going regularly to this pop-up stall for the last 5+ years. It is one of my favourite places in Basingstoke to grab something to eat...it's just a shame it is only around on Wednesdays and Saturdays. I would probably go here far more often if was open all week. Highly recommended if you catch them in town. This is definitely THE place for Thai food in Basingstoke...I haven't seen anything this good since Kwai 2 closed down in Lychpit. It is authentic Thai food with great variety of choice. I will usually buy some Moo Ping (pork skewers), chicken satay or fish cakes if I am after a bite of lunch; I buy the Chicken Massaman if I want to buy something for dinner. The aromatic and natural flavours are definitely different (in a good way) from the Asian "chain" eateries in Festival Place. It's as authentic as it gets. The servings are very generous and prices represent value for money...they could put the prices up a bit and it would still be decent. They only take cash so you need to come prepared...the only cash I have around in my room is literally just a fund for this place. The only downside is that there is often a 5-10 minute wait to be served as they are very busy. I think this is a combination of them being very popular but also service being relatively slow. I have sometimes baulked at the queue and regrettably had to eat somewhere else due to time constraints.

We visited as our halfway stop in both directions between kent and Devon and what a cracking find it was! Set in beautiful park perfect for letting us and the dog stretch our legs before sitting down to enjoy some lovely lunch and hot drinks. The staff are absolutely lovely and remembered us from our first stop. Very dog friendly and brought our dog some water. Clearly a family run, communi5u spirited venture. Lovely seating outside perfect for a summers day. Highly recommend.

As always a warm and friendly welcome, this evening was a roast ham, with a tasty cheese potato and onion pie. Bravo Chef Graham, bravo

very welcoming ate in on this occasion ordered chicken shish with salad and garlic sauce and it was delicious! good portion very clean and value for money also enjoyed the turkish tea!

A really lovely pick me up when I was in a bad mood waiting for the bus because I got new glasses and they look crap. Cheese bean sausage melt to die for. Wish I could go back in and get another but trying not to be a complete fatty.

Personal amable, barato pero la comida es buena, una taza de té es sólo £1. 10, lo que el mismo será en la costa? Aperitivos son razonables.

Popped in for a coffee as had 20 minutes spare before my bus. The cakes looked divine although resisted as I am on a diet. Ordered a skinny latte. Amazed it was only £2 and then £1.80 with my Festival Place card. Much better value than Costa Starbucks and M&S. Can thoroughly recommend.

We were made to feel very welcome in this amazing restaurant. From the moment we arrived, Mercel was the perfect host, helping with choices and pairings. Food was perfect, simply perfect.

Lovely food and excellent customer service

Honestly fantastic food and service. I had the mixed grill with garlic bread and Fanta. Needed a bit of plantain to deal with the heat but 10/10. Fantastic service from Nuuma and Indi. Kept us fed and brought the good vibes. Couldn’t have asked for more. They also directed us to some lovely nearby memorials.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Chennai Express! Everything we tried was full of authentic flavors and beautifully prepared. We started with the Papdi Chaat and Medu Vada, both of which were delicious. My wife had the Ghee Roast which was perfectly cooked. I had the Chilli Coriander Naan with Home Style Lamb Curry. The Lamb Curry was packed with flavor and absolutely delicious! A special mention goes to Ash, who served us with genuine warmth and professionalism. He was incredibly polite and attentive, and his recommendations were spot on. Although the prices are on the higher side, the quality of the food and the excellent service make it well worth it.

A gaming cafe that also does beer, ciders, and mead. Win/win for me.

Delivered nice and HOT. Throughly enjoyed the food.

Couldn't fault it. We were a large party group but they had no issues despite a full restaurant. Did was lovely and even accommodated the change to a few orders .. mainly mine ... was delicious

Good south Indian food & great atmosphere
