| nice little pub tucked away with the back garden literally looking out onto fields full of cows. Inside was quirky with low ceilings. Food looked ok (not sampled) and ales on tap were TEA, Bombardier and Broadside. Both tasted fine to me, maybe on the chilly side....but they were a bit on the cloudy side. £3.50 a pint.....not too bad. Would visit again if in the area, but wouldn't go out of my way....closed between lunch and evenings...opening at 6pm.. d.franks - 9 May 2012 18:49 |
| Nice old pub in a lovely location, tucked away off the main road with ample car parking to the side and well kept garden to the rear. We visited for a family lunch on a bank holiday Monday and found the staff courteous enough (we did catch the barman taking a swig of mineral water directly from a bottle before serving it to another customer, wich did seem strange!) The meals were served promptly with generous portions of meat but were let down by the soft and soggy roast potatoes and vegetables. The keg beers were OK but the two real ales on tap (TEA and Bombardier) both had a slightly chemical taste. The barman replaced the beer when we mentioned it to him, but the second pint was not much better. The pub was less than half full on a sunny bank holiday, which perhaps suggests that both food and ale could be better. Tony_Wilson - 3 May 2010 22:20 |
| Popped in here yesterday after a 7 mile walk with wife and dogs. Very pleased with this pub. Staff were welcoming and helpful. Hogs Back TEA was in very good condition. Liver and bacon was well cooked and good value. Will definitely be back. Nice log fire burning away. A good old-fashioned, unpretentious pub. Worth a visit. rg12bee - 3 Apr 2010 15:36 |
| WOW! What a find! A friend recommended this pub when i said i was looking for a old fashioned traditional olde worlde pub that was different from the majority of modern, polished wood, national chain, frozen food serving pubs. LOOK NO FURTHER. The atmosphere was superb.From the warm welcome to our large birthday party of 12, to pre dinner drinks under the fabulous wisteria covered pergola overlooking the Hampshire countryside,to our delicious main courses of home made food and the very attentitive staff made this a really unforgetable night. Always a good sign when a place is full of locals offering entertaining banter.Thankyou again for making it a special night for us all and rest assured you will be our no.1 destination from now on. WELL DONE. FOODMANIA - 12 Jun 2009 23:41 |
| This pub is set in a nice village vocation, however this is unfortunately where your pleasant evening ends, The starter of mixed fish grill was not fresh but clearly from the frozen section of a local supermarket and since stuck in a deep fat fryer, it tasted of old oil and not much else. The main course of sausage and mash was a highlight and I would recommend this dish. The other main course of sirloin steak was a distinct disappointment; chips straight from a packet, mushrooms that had been left to fester under the lights of a serving hatch and a steak which lacked any flavor. The bill arrived and we were shocked by the high cost per head considering the poor standard of food, more like motorway service station than gastropub. The service was pleasant although not up to standard considering the price. thepubguide - 8 May 2009 22:44 |
