| The Cricketers is close to where I work so I was looking forward to having a decent boozer near the office. As usual in Britain these days, generally you are going to be disappointed if you want a decent 'pub' experience as this is being replaced by the corporate brand image of everything being the same. The Cricks actually isn't a BAD pub, there are a couple of decent ales on and they seem well looked-after - I was only there early so will need another visit to see how it copes under pressure. As usual though, too many large plastic menus and people sitting on high-stools around lacquered tall tables waiting for microwaved chain grub. Average. alezilla - 8 Jan 2011 14:52 |
| This pub has been known to my family for years. It's been through some ups and downs, but is currently most definitely on an up. A well-kept, if mostly unchanging, range of beers, mostly from the Greene King stable, but also normally Ringwood Best. Friendly, hard-working landlord and staff. Food normally looks decent, if unspectacular, although I haven't eaten there for a while. A wide range of events as well, including a weekly pub quiz and two beer festivals at Easter and over the August bank holiday. It's a big pub, so at off-peak times, you might find yourself rattling around, and the atmosphere might seem a bit dead as a result, but I'd definitely recommend it! lemski - 9 May 2010 22:52 |

| Heavily modernised Greene King pub opposite Chandlers Ford golf course. A fairly extensive range of ales for the GK chain, with Olde Trip, Morland Original, GK IPA, Abbot and a couple of guests. Outside deck area is a pleasant space and is probably worth a punt as there are very few other pubs worth recommending in the surrounding area. Not far from Eastleigh FC.
