| New manager has taken over the RS. Menu has changed, and the upstairs is open all day, had a lunchtime meal at the weekend, and it very good, and came quickly. Quality_Checker - 16 May 2012 22:43 |
| Not the best of evenings to go to the 'Sun' with the 'Lads' on wet Wednesday for our 'Sportman's' lunch. Started off with a well served Speckled hen. The pub had reasonable trade. As it was 'Spice night' we went for the the: "A delicious Curry served with a drink for £7.45 Choose from a Becks Vier, Stella Artois or Kreene King IPA, 175 mm Glass of Chardonnay or Merlot or a standard sized soft drink". Now with a pint of IPA at just over £3 a £4.45 meal can't be bad. A selection of 4 'Ruby's' and we went for the strongest that would certainly light up 'the rings around Uranus' for most punters. All served on a bed of wild rice. We had a sighting of what looked like a real chef (not a microwave jockey). Another table had a monster 'steak and kidney' being served. We all checked and the plates were hot (a must in my old mans book). Some how looking a bit tatty after the re-furb but still tidy. The service was good and pleasant and the meal served up nice and sharp. All round, a good boozer and best in the Summer when you can watch the yachts sail by on the way to the Solent.

| Excellent location overlooking the Hamble River, though there is a small car park between the RS and the Hamble. Oddly the car park is free with another free one two minutes walk away. The RS is basic pub grub, order at the bar, served at your table. The last time I had a meal there, in the evening, the music (not live) was too loud which made everyone speak louder. Service was mediocre. The upstairs gives an even better view of the boating activity and until recently was closed during the day but I’m told a new area manager thinks this policy was silly, so the upstairs is open. On a hot day or evening ask for you drinks in plastic and take them outside and sit on the small boardwalk that surrounds the car park. Very pleasant. Considering how good the location is I’m surprised more is not made of the RS. Redecorated last year (2010) but already showing signs of scruffiness (the double-glazing plastic upstairs) it really just a local in a fine setting that plays predictable pub music too loudly. robin555 - 17 Aug 2011 22:31 |
| I have been going to this pub for about 10 years, it has a beautiful view and overall the service is pleasant taking into consideration when it's very busy staff still amange to keep their cool and serve as much as possible. In answer to a remark regarding the present landlady being in charge , she has been there 11 years .........must be doing something right!!!! Most pubs now days food will come in and be served out of a packet but if it's good and taste nice then happy days! At least they don't claim that it's home made unless it actually is!! I would certainly recommend this pub to friends and family especially for sepecial occasions as it is in a convenient location for that area and they accomodate as much as they can to meet the customers requirements. littlepj - 25 Oct 2010 13:19 |
