The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Blackwater Test Valley South East

We did not stay in the hotel but visited for a meal on Saturday night while staying locally. I emailed prior to visiting due to diet requirements, and this was responded to promptly by the chef. We was provided with a separate menu with great gf options. Both had fish and chips one gf, and it was amazing! Great food and service!

Booked a table for 10 of us this morning @9:30 to celebrate my birthday, with a family breakfast. Ordered drinks & breakfasts. Drinks came as expected, but we waited an hour & a half for our breakfasts, that were only baps, croissants, beans on toast etc. A cycling group came in after us & got theirs fairly promptly. We were told they pre ordered. The 4 little ones with us were very upset as they were hungry. When after an hour I checked our order not forgotten, was told they were very busy. Yes it was busy, but if pre order would have helped, it would have been good to tell us when we booked, as that wouldn’t have been a problem. Secondly, it was busy by the time our food arrived, but not when we got there & placed our order. Kitchen system/ staff numbers need to be addressed. I hope this can be seen as constructive criticism, as it’s a lovely venue.
