Have returned to the Rising Sun after a long absence. New team so far we have had several lunchtime meals and a Valentines Night The meals were HOT and freshly cooked, not luke warm as before, no waiting for courses as we did before. Usually selection of traditional Ales, but now have a landlords bitter caled 'Rising Sun' the bar staff seemed very happy, and reflects on their service. Keep it up worth a return!!

Came back here on Sun, 16th Sept 2012. It's a really great location, and the pub slots perfectly into a long walk or bike ride! Staff were cheerful and friendly.

Food is served all day, and we had a nice lunch here around 3pm - it was 'chain pub food' but very decent ... a tasty lamb shank, excellent steak, and a good burger. We asked for a variation to the side dishes (veg instead of chips) and the staff were happy to help.

Greene King ales are usually a bit lacklustre, but they did a very good job at keeping them and I rather enjoyed my GK IPA (possibly for the first time ever!).

Come to the seaside, and have a steak and a pint - it's a good place!

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.

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.
