It might look like a cafe on the outside (if you can find it), but there’s a proper restaurant with a proper kitchen on the inside. A small but varied menu, good portions and tasty. The chef was out among the guests, taking orders and asking if all ok. Well placed confidence. We would definitely return.

The best bubble tea I’ve ever had! I tried a pineapple bubble tea with mango flavoured bubbles. It is by far the nicest bubble tea I’ve ever tried. If you are in Lymington and bubble tea then this is the place to go. I also tried the coconut flavoured milk based bubble tea as my wife had that and was equally as delightful.

What a lovely find in Lymington - probably one of our best meals in the last few years and we enjoy eating out alot. We found this via the Michelin guide and made a day trip of it to visit this charming restaurant by the marina walking street. We chose to have an early lunch with their 7 course tasting menu. Our particular menu had a seafood focus to it and my goodness was it a treat. We had oyster dressed in honey and jalapeño, delicate crab with asparagus velouté and poached quail egg, skate cheeks with the most lovely langoustine sauce and lobster cassoulet! As the courses kept coming, we were delighted with different flavour combinations. The best, well - perhaps second best because the crab dish really stole the show - was the main dessert which was a sabayon with an indulgent chocolate mousse drizzled with the most perfect South African olive oil - the combination was nutty and rich and each time you inhaled, you got the lovely olive oil aroma dancing with the sabayon - such a surprisingly lovely combination that just makes you shake your head in wonder. Service was professional and attentive with a full understanding of each dish and detail. The accompanying wine flight was also the perfect compliment to the tasting menu - not trying to stand out but instead meanders with you on chef’s culinary journey. We drove from London and will do so again in a heartbeat to come back. The tasting menu is innovative and interesting, but not so wacky that you don’t recognise your meal. Prices are not cheap but certainly not over the top for the quality of the ingredients, experience and skill of the chef’s team and impeccable service. Lunch is a good time to visit as its not as busy as dinner (which they are often fully booked) and allows you time to enjoy the experience and still have a nice walk afterwards. Note: bring cash as service is not added to the credit card bill and can only be paid separately - nearest cash machine is at Tesco about 8 mins away so good to sort this out beforehand. Parking is available in the lots at the marina (if its busy, wait a few mins as people seem to come and go). Dress code I would say is comfortable and neat. The ambiance of the restaurant is calm and charming with a few little whimsical features that make you smile - we sat next to a metal angler fish lamp! But the team here really pulls it all together, - so welcoming, knowledgable and passionate about their food and wine. Such a lovely find and we will be back again soon!

Had an excellent lunch and here today with friends..melt in your mouth beef, great Yorkshire's and sides.....sticky toffee pudding and souffles to follow. Great ambience, food was superb, and all of the front of house team was upbeat, knowledgeable and suitably attentive. Thank you.

We'd heard about The Tinker's Granddaughter through a friend and so decided to try it out for ourselves and booked the Sunday Roast Club - we were not disappointed! The service was friendly and welcoming and the food was incredible. It was our first time trying Juicy Marbles steaks and I have to say, they were the best meat substitute I've ever had. The only downside was that the room was quite crammed. We ordered first and by the time our food was served, people were still queuing right behind us to order theirs - which I understand is unavoidable but did hinder the experience a bit. I also treated myself to a tiramisu to take away, which again was the best plant based tiramisu I've had. We loved the experience so much that we've already booked again for June!

Ciao Belli is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere made us feel like we had stepped into a little corner of Italy. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring we had a fantastic dining experience. The food? Simply outstanding! homemade beef lasagna—perfectly layered and rich with authentic Italian taste. The Linguine prawns was another highlight, packed with seafood and a deliciously light white wine sauce. If you're looking for authentic Italian cuisine, excellent service, and a cozy ambiance, Ciao Belli is the place to be. We’ll definitely be coming back! 🍝🍷✨

The Cellar Tasting House & Wine Merchant in Lymington is a hidden gem that offers a cosy and inviting atmosphere. The knowledgeable team, led by owner, provides personalised recommendations that cater to individual tastes and budgets. The establishment maximises its space with a well-curated shop, a welcoming bar, intimate upstairs nooks, and a charming terrace. The extensive selection of wines and gins is impressive, making it one of the few bars worth travelling over an hour to experience. For serious wine and spirit enthusiasts, this is a must-visit destination.

Always a treat to have to have an evening here and never disapppoints, which is why I keep going back. Peter's food is delicious and beautifully presented and Nicola and her front of house team always give a very warm welcome and excellent service. This restaurant has been in business for many years and there's a very good obvious reason for that .Would highly recommend

We liked the look of this restaurant while out looking for something to eat.The staff were friendly, good service and a good vibe.Loved the food choice and different items that we don't normally get in many Indian restaurants. Our meal was absolutely delicious and plentiful, we didn't leave a thing,unfortunately we felt let down by the astronomical price of two large lime and sodas;£11.40. So we would not visit again as we felt ripped off.

Very disappointed my partner and I come here every time we visit the new forest.We came this time with her Mum and Dad. The main reason we go here is cause of the good choice of gluten free options there have. I wanted a gluten free cheese and ham toastie to be told there was too busy to do gluten free toastie .yet there advertised gluten free options. Then I was given a coffee with a non gluten free biscuit so be careful when you order drinks.Unfortunately we will not revisit again…

Staff were inattentive, slovenly and ill-kempt. Service was slow and food in general of average quality. It was much better 2 years ago.
