Rockingham Arms in Test Valley

An undeserved 3 stars but the evening was rescued by the most brilliant Lucy who I thought must own this establishment she was so caring and professional. Sadly on this occasion our food was very average and two out of four meals went back. It’s a lovely place to be but not convinced about the food, however the service was exceptional. So rare to meet anyone so charming, she deserves a pay rise.

We decided to visit Canada Common and then The Rockingham Arms on whim on a Saturday afternoon. Luckily there was a cancellation and we were able to be seated. The place was full which is nice to see, especially in these times. The atmosphere and decor were cosy & the staff were lovely and friendly. My partner & I ordered the beef burger and it was delicious! (Sorry I couldnt snap a picture before I dug in, I was hungry! 😂). We will definitely visit again if we are in the area, and I would highly recommend.

Fantastic country pub , lovely decor, very busy for a Monday lunch, but the food and service will keep people coming here, wonderful! Dog friendly in the bar too 🐶

Great pub, great food, great atmosphere & lovely friendly staff - could not fault it.Dropped one star because it is pricey - I was being treated but could not afford to go again on my budget.Highly recommended if you can afford it😁

It's a great place to rest with a drink, a meal (both) and the dining options include inside or outside - with additional heating (outside) but plenty of ventilation, so you can feel as safe as you want to be in these very trying times. The food is exemplary, varied and well presented. With lots of quality local produce on the menu, you really can't go wrong. Definitely worth a visit after a long walk on the common.

I love this pub 🤩The location is perfect - on the edge of Canada Common in the New Forest so take your walking boots or wellies with you! The pub has a wonderful friendly ambience, the food is great and the staff are efficient and attentive.Well worth a visit!

Beautifully furnished and decorated. Great service and food. AND there's a shop that sells the kind of things that decorate the pub/restaurant.

Visited for lunch, two of us and the dog 🐶. Very dog 🐶 friendly. Taking the approach ‘choose something you don’t get at home’ I chose the liver… it was pink, it was excellent. Washed down nicely with a pint 🍺 of Romsey Gold. Jane (getting married in December) was very friendly, professional and attentive … and looked after the dog 🐶. By prior arrangement parked up early for a walk on Canada 🍁 Common. Strongly recommend 👍December visit…. Remain impressed 🎄👍

YOU HAVE TO VISIT! This place is worth a visit and so gorgeous inside. Staff are friendly and the place on a Summers day is just sublime. I would highly recommend this place. The food was excellent, we all ordered different stuff, i had the Malaysian Curry Vegan and it was so tasty. With a pint of Pepsi.

Nice little pub, good beer selection and wine selection. The food menu is quite concise (which is quite nice in a way) but both the pie and sea food curry where excellent and a big serving (the mash with the pie was so good), kids meals looked good but also on the large side (our 4 and 2 year old would only need 1 to share). Very friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff. Lots of outside tables, would definitely recommend
