Disappointed with our visit to what used to be a lovely welcoming pub. The pub is waiting for the new landlord to start, so hopefully things improve soon.The pub was empty and cold, with a very limited menu. The staff advised that they were using food up, which made me wander how fresh it would be, so we decided to take our custom elsewhere. Sorry for not supporting you but it just didn't feel very welcoming.

Lovely lamb roast dinner for a very reasonable price. Large portions and a good variety of fresh veg. Good atmosphere and you can tell the staff are working really hard to make it work. Would definitely recommend a visit!

What a superb little pub, this is a really cosy pub / restaurant in an idyllic location. The staff were really friendly and the food freshly cooked and very tasty.A good selection on the menu and staff knowledgeable about the food and ingredients. A very welcome relief from the tiresome chain restaurants.Ample parking available on site and access to some lovely countryside walksThanks for a great visit!

Lovely pub in the beautiful village of Easton, Hampshire. I guess on a Sunday you should probably go for a roast, however I decided on a burger which ended up being forgotten. When it eventually turned up, to be fair, a good vet would have had it up and running around in no time! The room temperature was pretty chilly as well. Not putting a downer on it though, I reckon this place could be a cracker in the summer. I'll go back and give it another go sometime.

Appalling!! Out on a Sunday afternoon walk thought we would try this for just a drink half way round. Barmaid firstly said they were 'low on everything' and would have to check. Secondly insisted on cash as the payment machine was being reserved for people paying for meals. Finally having paid for the drinks she insisted that we sit outside.... In January!!! Possibly time to drink up quickly and never return to what may be Britain'smost unwelcoming pub!!

Booked in advance and visited for Sunday lunch with my wife and son and what a brilliant little find this was for us.Staff were very attentive and friendly whilst we visited, service was spot on compared to many pubs we have visited for Sunday lunch. Chicken roast and Lamb roast was great and came out very quickly our sons fish and chips were delicious and the portion size for a child is huge for the price that you pay.Easton mess was delicious and presented beautifully and a great play on the name for a classic dish. Big thank you to Alex for being very accommodating and giving us one of the best family Sunday lunches we’ve had in a long time.Will book again in the future once we are back in Winchester.

We found one of the bar staff looked stressed and had no smile and patience at the time he was dealing with us as we entered the pub, then one of the other bar staff who was taking our order was very nice and polite with a smile. When we got our food it was tepid warm and the meat pie pastry was raw as under cooked, it spoilt the day and experience out with our friends. It was not a good value for money place for the prices on the menu, as small portions were given. Could have done with more vegetables. I will not be going back.

Really enjoyed our lunch here yesterday. I chose the seafood bowl, my son had the seafood board and my daughter in law had fish n chips. We followed with the sweet board. All the food was excellent. Staff were friendly and efficient. Will definitely return.

Service was good. Refurb looks great lovely modern twist but food was disappointing. No starter were warm and one undercooked . The sausage and mash main was very dire. Taste and presentation okay but the potatoes hadn't been cooked properly before mashing so were yellow and hard. Again this dish wasnt hot.The barmaid was lovely and very helpful which is the only thing that saved this visit. Beware if you sit outside to eat you have to endure the smell of weed coming from the chefs ect outside the kitchen
