Attractive exterior and impressive spacious interior. Hall & woodhouse owned. The pub was quite busy and the ale and drinks were fine......Unfortunately,in spite of the woodburner,the pub was absolutely freezing. Most people still had their coats on inside. Food is of the freezer variety but prices are ok which must be the reason why so many people are here to experience this below average pub.

i have been to this place twice in last year.
1st time it was poor
2nd time (June 2010) it was quite satisfactory.
recommend the lasagne-big enough to share.
FREE apples at bar
newspapers to read
i am sure the earlier reviews are true as we did not want to return after 1st time!

We are regulars at the Queens College Arms, Bramley. Last Tuesday we went there for a meal and I had scampi, we had our starters, everything was fine, waited over half an hour for our main meal. My scampi had obviously been put under a heat light to keep warm as it was rock hard.

I should have complained but they're didn't seem to be many staff so we just left, the consequences are, when I got home I had terrible toothache after biting into one of the scampi and today I had to have the tooth removed.

That was one expensive plate of scampi!!

If you enjoy microwave food, poor service, rude staff, this is the place to go to. Basingstoke has a number of pubs that the managers in charge are proud of – this is not one of those. We asked for and paid for two puddings. A simply enough order – put two puddings in the microwave, when it goes ping, take them out and serve - £12 in the till. But no, they couldn’t even do that. Forty-five minutes later, we asked and were told that they have lost our order - no apologies. We will NEVER go there again.

The food is cheap and everything is still OBVIOUSLY being microwaved....the pub has quite a reputation for that now. I had the "Gourmet Burger" on the last visit and honestly would have been more impressed at McDonalds! The new manager is unfriendly, rude and snappy, but oddly for a landlord he hardly seems to be there so you may not notice. The whole atmosphere has become a desperate, conveyor-belt style service, you're in and out as quick as they can manage. The ales, however, are very nice with some good choices. Although, this isn't enough to make me want to go again and I feel strongly inclined to travel further for a better pub. This place is an embarrasment, don't go there.
