Pub in Southampton

“Having already visited the Portsmouth branch recently and being very impressed when I had to go to Southampton knowing they also had a branch I decided to book my lunch there. While I ordered different dishes than before I was still very impressed with all the food and it was all very tasty, my waitress Sam was very helpful and made me feel very welcome, as long as tap and tandoor continue to accept cash payment I will continue to go as the food and the service is excellent, what is worrying though is this is the second time I have come at peak time and it has been very quiet and I really don't know why when both the food and service have been this good, especially when way worse restaurants like bills and Zizzi are busy it's very confusing.”

“We enjoyed an overnight stay at this lovely hotel. Our ground floor room was delightful and spotlessly clean, with tea and coffee facilities. Parking was easy too. The breakfast, which was made to order, was great and the staff very friendly and helpful. We would definitely visit again!”

“The Best and only place in southampton to dance salsa, bachata and kizomba every Sunday”

“Great little place. Been here 5 or 6 times over the years. Friendly staff, and good value for money steak. I really hope they never close down or change too much.”

“Very pleasantly surprised by this kebab. Staff was friendly, the place is pretty, and the food was amazing. Quite a few vegetarian options. I will definitely be back to get more comfort food!”

“I had my 30th birthday organized by this restaurant, and I was truly amazed! The set out was beautiful, and the atmosphere was lovely. The service was outstanding, and the food was delicious. The portion sizes were generous, and the overall experience was brilliant. I couldn't have asked for a better celebration!" ---”

“We had a Christmas lunch here for 20+ people and everything was perfect. The food was superb, the service outstanding and the atmosphere great. Whenever we have been here we have always had a great time and they cater for gluten free options. Thank you.”

“Food is amazing. But attention they have two boards not just one. And one board have much more interesting food then another. Somehow they forgot to mention so we lost the opportunity to experience the best food.”

“We were looking for a carvery and was recommended The Forge by a friend. First time here and they did not disappoint! The meats and veg were lovely, generous portions and cooked well. The puddings were astounding, I had the brownie and ice cream, it was unreal! Just look at that presentation, it made me say "wow" when the waitress brought it over. We had 2 drinks 2 meals and 2 puddings all for £37, I think that's an insanely good price! The atmosphere was really nice as well, we had a great night, thanks! 5/5* would 100% recommend!”

“It was one of the best Indian restaurants I have ever been in. The menu was very extensive and the food was out of this world. Would highly recommend this place if you are ever in the area. Will be visiting again .”

“A great start to our Hampshire pub experience. Nicely kept beer and pleasant staff. Food looked good but we didn't have time to stay as we were on a schedule.”

“Lovely cosy pub. Been here a few times for Sunday lunch and the food is amazing. Very good service. Parking is limited though”

“My husband and I enjoyed a delicious Sunday lunch here yesterday. Food and service were perfect. We have already booked to come again in December.”

“The best burgers me and my mum have ever had. We had half each of the shredded chicken and beef brisket, they were both absolutely devine. I could not recommend eating here more. Even the chips were beautiful. 100% will return. These really just aren't any burgers !!!”

“The lovely team at River Rat really went above and beyond for my mams wedding. They let us come round to decorate the day before, the food was amazing and because of their attention to detail the night was perfect. Thank you so much”

“We went on a Thursday night to get the half price mains and it was great! Really lovely service and excellent value for money. We all enjoyed our food. My partner had the fish and chips, my son had the steak and ale pie, and I had the veggie chilli which was delicious and wonderfully home cooked. I liked it so much I think we will make it a regular event, especially at that price!”

“This is a diamond hiding in plain sight! A perfect cozy and comfortable restaurant. Food is just right with lots of flavour and variety. Staff are welcoming and friendly with right right amount of interaction and interest. I've eaten here a few times now and have not been disappointed. Outdoor, covered eating space or roomy warm interior. Many drink options to choose from ales, cocktails, spirits and wine. For a privately owned and run local restaurant this is somewhere I would always recommend and when possible (as not local) eat at.”

“Great food and lovely venue. Very friendly service from Fran & Lewis, they brought the vibe. Definitely coming back soon as the menu is massive and has lots of great options!”

“After being turned away in 3 eating establishments we found George's. I am so glad we did. The food was excellent. Our server Karen was wonderful and made our meal memorable . Thank you. We would recommend George's Restaurant over all the other restaurants in the area.”

“Just awesome. I’m sated and happy. Excellent value for money and cracking service. Try the white sangria. Get the jug!”

“Came in for food last week and it was absolutely amazing! The presentation of the food was great, the meat was cooked to perfection, such great portion sizes!! Hats off to the chef!”

“This place is a true gem in Romsey. Great atmosphere, great service & an excellent menu, both food & wine. We might become regulars!”

“Lovely place! We only stopped for a quick beer but the food menu looks delicious with loads of vegan and gluten free options. We’ll be back.”

“Still my favourite restaurant around. Super service and scrummy food just how I remembered. Returned after 3.5 years away and was greeted as we walked in the door by staff. Lovely to see an open fire lit for lunch service. Cosy and welcoming. Food was just how I remembered, fresh and flavourful. Abbie and team were very attentive. Loved it and won’t leave it so long next time!”

“Didn’t expect to have this delicious Thai food in Salisbury. The receptionist at our b&b recommended this restaurant, and coconut soup (don’t remember the exact menu..) was my favorite.”

“Food was exceptional here and came really quickly, my prawns were very large and nice. Decently priced and great service. Loved the decor. We went on Easter Sunday so it was very quiet.”

“Amazing food almost order food every day there.”

“Wow! I’m still thinking about the pasta now. Food was so good!! Really authentic, beautiful venue. Great service, both of our servers were lovely and attentive. Definitely coming back!”

“Very tasty tacos in centre of Winchester. Really nice vibe. Dog friendly. Key thing is all home made. The tacos were so soft and fluffy and the fillings had real flavour and depth. Nice bar space inside with wide choice of beers. Would definitely go back.”

“Honestly this was such a pleasant suprise and so refreshing in the quality of food and drinks available. I was not just surprised at the variety of options in both food and drink, but the quality and flavours of everything. There was not one dish of drink that I didn't not enjoy. Commendations to the owners and the those that creators of the masterpieces. I am proud to say that I stopped taking pictures in between as I chose to savour the flavours. Highly highly recommend.”
