The best restaurants serving Default food in Boldre and Sway New Forest South East

Superb - everything from the staff to ambience to services . See you again in the summer

Had an excellent Sunday lunch. I had pork belly which was lovely and my husband and father in law had the beef which was beautifully cooked. There were plenty of vegetables to accompany the meal. I'm gluten free and there were numerous delicious options on the dessert menu to choose from. There was a nice fire going and a band singing in the back ground so the atmosphere was very nice. It was our first visit and definitely won't be our last. The only slight negative, but just being picky really, they could have done with another member of staff as the girls serving us were really rushed off their feet and just about coped. Despite that they were pleasant and friendly given that they were really under pressure.

Without a doubt, the best roast in the forest! All the food here is exceptional. Great service too. Highly recommended!

Absolutely love the food here. The chef Jason is a master class chef! He always whips something up that makes me super happy - and I'm vegan

Lovely hotel with beautiful grounds. The staff were extremely accommodating and made us feel very welcome. We missed breakfast in the morning, but the staff very kindly sorted a lovely spread out for us, even though the kitchen had closed. The terrace at the back of the house is a wonderful sun trap and the perfect place for an evening glass of wine. We shall definitely return to this delighltyly tranquil hotel.

12 of us went for a meal on Sunday 29 Dec and the food and service were amazing! Every meal was cooked to perfection and our waitress was so friendly. Well done all and Happy New Year!

Nothing special We use to come last year really often chef was more creative food ok but nothing special taste wise so no recommendations

Rooms are great. Food was good. Choice of beers not so great

We had an amazing experience here! We are always on the hunt for a Sunday roast. Here we got the most amazing sharing starter and Sunday roast. Sitting in the garden with the sun truly made our Sunday perfect. The combination of fantastic service, delicious food, and the charming setting of one of Britain’s oldest pub/restaurants made a memorable visit. Steve and his team couldn’t of done more for us and it 100% has become one of our favourite spots

Great friendly service. Buffet food good quality and plenty of it. Definitely recommend.

Been here a couple of times before and have drove out of our way to go. We both had lasagne as it has been amazing before and probably the best weve probably ever had. However, last night was disappointing, the lasagne had no meat in it, I didn’t eat much of it, the chips were fries and were over cooked. Not what it normally is like. Very disappointing this time and unfortunately won’t be returning.

Nice food, large portions. Busy so get there early or book. Dog friendly and there is a menu for dogs. Reasonably priced too.

Exceeded our expectations, friendly staff in a wonderful setting, matched with quality food. Highly recommended 👌

The waitress Casey was very rude and unprofessional

Hilarious , first time I’ve had to pay for gravy because they don’t give enough and the chef reason because we have to buy the jug it comes in and they get broken every week so it’s to cover cost not the cost of the gravy ! Why not just put enough gravy on food instead of serving it so dry it’s not nice without enough gravy. Or even just put price up by 50 p an serve enough gravy . Other customers also raised this when we were there. The carrots an broccoli were dried out an reheated . Mash was dry as anything shame as the rest was nice. Never before have I had to pay for extra gravy because you don’t serve enough in the first place. Bar area lovely warm but the back room is too cold for comfort in the winter months.
