Asked for a medium rare steak, and received medium well. No check back was done, so I went to the bar to ask for a replacement. Was sent another medium well. Check back asked how it was and i told them it wasn't right still. Was just told that "the chef was on his break". Adequate training should be given to members of staff. The kids meals where or good quality though so at least they were happy.

We visited on a weekday afternoon after a walk in the New Forest. We were only stopping for a drink and it wasn’t a pub we’ve visited before but we were impressed by the warm welcome and quick service. It was a quiet time at the pub but several people were eating meals which looked very appetising and on a perusal of the menu and extensive specials board we decided that we’ll have to pay another visit to sample the food. They feature a lot of local produce on the menu and also make their own sausages and burgers. There’s also a good range of wines and beers together with at least half a dozen local gins. Looking forward to a return trip...
