“We’ve been here as a big group of 18. Organization was great. Food came in quickly and it was absolutely delicious. We will definitely come back again when visiting Bournemouth”

“Came across River Bean and Bar by chance Great find. Quiet while we were there early afternoon. Friendly staff. Good menu but can recommend very tasty fish finger roll. Will visit again soon”

“The King's Head was a great find. The staff were amazing. They were extremely helpful in every aspect. The entertainment was great for New Year. The car park was large enough for people enjoying an evening drink/meal and people staying.”

“Excellent excellent excellent, no fault at all, the staff from the beginning to the end were all helpful and happy to help. We booked the hotel ( 4 adult and a child ) for 2 night. We had a faulty safety lock inside our room made a phone call it was fixed immediately. The lady behind the breakfast food counter was very friendly and willing to help, "she kept on asking do I want anything which was nice", in short all the staff were nice and friendly. The hotel it self was very clean and neat, nice gym and spa, there wifi excellent. My highlight of those 2 night for me was the bed, it was clean, smooth and soft, I think my soul left my body dancing sleeping on that bed, best feeling ever. Definitely recommending and will be going back soon”

“Had a very comfortable two day stay at this small and centrally located hotel. Rooms are clean, beds comfy, and bathrooms well appointed. A good selection for breakfast with a semi buffet and a la carte dishes included. Lovely large courtyard at the back to sit outside during the summer months. Service was very friendly and accommodating. Elsa in particular at the front desk was very welcoming and helpful.”

“Stayed for a short break to visit the Cathedral, Christmas Market and shops. The Westgate’s central position was ideal for access to everything. Room very comfortable. Food excellent and all the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Would highly recommend and hope to be able to return one day soon. Thankyou”

“Came here on Friday. Fab time. Got free photos with lovely Beth! We’ll be back soon xx”

“We visited The Bridge Inn today, for a celebratory 90th birthday lunch, with our Mum. The restaurant was busy when we arrived and there was a lovely atmosphere. Liv was our waitress and she looked after us really well. In fact, all the staff were friendly and welcoming. The service was excellent, attentive but not overly so. We ordered drinks while we looked at the menu, which was quite varied and well laid out. We chose our mains and we didn’t have to wait very long before the food was served, nice and hot. A couple of us had the steak and ale pie, which was delicious! Two others had chicken dishes, which were very tasty too, and one of us had the special venison burger, which was amazing! Deserts followed, including sticky toffee pudding, chocolate brownies, and apple tart, all of which were absolutely delicious. James was our chef today, and we got to chat with him, briefly, after our meals. The prices were very reasonable indeed, and the service charge wasn’t added automatically, like many restaurants, but we didn’t hesitate to add our own cash tip, as the whole experience was just perfect. Definitely a birthday lunch to remember, and I’d highly recommend a visit to The Bridge Inn, at Shawford.”

“It’s been 10 years since my last visit. Lovely food and atmosphere, staff were welcoming , kind and respectful. We had a great time !”

“We did not eat food here as we had already eaten lunch. We just stopped for a drink and to appreciate the atmosphere. The food looked really good and there were many appreciative customers”

“Arrived for a show and wasn't sure if I would stay overnight.. l did.. Thank you to Emma on reception who booked me in Emma 5* service.. friendly professional and made me feel welcomed. totally enjoyed my stay. My stay was good and will teturn for sure.”

“Great little traditional pub that, unlike many, has not pivoted to become a pub restaurant. Great atmosphere and they also have a pool table!”

“I have been to masala Lounge around five times over the last year and every time, whether it is Indian or Thai, has been really high quality. I went yesterday evening and I think it’s the best chicken curry I’ve ever had. I liked it so much I’m tempted to go back and have another one. The staff are very friendly always happy to see you. Highly recommend the quality of the food.”

“Went for a saturday night family dinner. Walked in rather than booking a table due to other plans falling through- would definitely recommend! Staff were accommodating and lovely, with good service. We had 4 different dishes and they were all to a good standard, a little more expensive than other pubs in the area but the food matched this. Lots of decent vegetarian/vegan options that have clearly been thought out rather than being an afterthought, very impressed. I had the risotto which was delicious. The only downside was one of our wineglasses had a lipstick stain on it, but everything else was clean and I imagine this is not a regular occurrence. The pub is also dog friendly, including some tables in the restaurant area. Lots of parking. We will definitely be returning!”

“This 18th Century, Grade11 listed pub is an experience that shouldn't be missed. Nice pint of Fullers London Pride, with plenty of other beers to choose from. The original old pub has been extended to be more than twice it's floor area. Good food menu and friendly staff. Plenty of seating inside and out. Large car park. Frontage of the pub is best seen on the south side.”

“Stated the night before popping over to the Isle of Wight Music Festival. We were given the pitch the day before so were able to park and set up immediately. Friendly and well appointed facilities. Thank you.”

“A lovely traditional English pub. Friendly and welcoming staff, spotlessly clean, clean toilets, lovely and cozy outdoor seating area with cover. Mature and friendly clientele. Highly recommend a visit. My wife and I have already decided that this pub will be our "go to" pub next time we are in Romsey.”

“Stopped by for a pint, after a beautiful walk of the ruins. Lovely outdoor sitting area for the good weather, will be back again!”

“Welcomed by Kiera, who was very friendly and helped us with our drinks. All staff were lovely and helpful!”

“My first time here proper pub , great atmosphere, cheap beer, friendly locals 5 stars”

“Brilliant pub can't fault it. The bar woman with the big black dog is fantastic. Had a nice drink and a lovely ham and cheese roll. Will be back again”

“Lovely staff. Very family friendly pub. Nice big garden for little ones to run around. Always have music playing.”

“Great Public Inn,great drinks,great prices & a friendly atmosphere,fantastic staff. Also very clean! - toilets are fab too.”

“Very nice and cosy pub. Food was nice and staff very courteous.”

“We went to The Mailman’s for a carvery today and it was top notch. Choice of 3 meats (we had beef and gammon which were both excellent), crispy roast potatoes and lovely thick gravy. Sat in the garden in the sunshine. The staff are always so friendly and helpful. Thank you.”

“Was very quiet but the food was amazing. I had beef bourguinon & mince pie ice cream. Soooo delicious.”

“Easily the best afternoon tea in Hampshire. Went with a friend for the themed afternoon tea. We both had the vegan version and it was stunning, both in presentation and taste! What was especially nice to see is that rather than the vegan option being different, it was the same food/ presentation as main tea, not a different substitute. The cactus macaroons in chocolate 'soil' were wonderful!”

“I absolutely love this place!! I tried it once and I keep coming back. Delicious food for fair prices. I am not big fan of their coffee, so next time I order hot chocolate and I must say I never had anything like it!!”
