Burger was nice but nothing overly special. Probably wouldn't order it again. The beef was quite dense and dry and the pretzel bun was also quite dry.
The french fries and onion rings were lovely though. We had passion fruit pavlova for dessert and it was gorgeous. Nice and fresh and full of flavour
A great family day out to the New Forest, having the most delicious meal at the "Bat and Ball" where they grow their own veggies via hydroponics. Incredible set up by a fellow Zimbo. Very helpful and welcoming staff including a super chef. Got a few gem squash seedlings too. Thanks very much... we w
I like this place. I have only been twice in the last couple of years. The food has been good and it is an nice old pub. Pleasant staff. I would like to go back more, especially in the summer, it looks like a great outside space. I had veg Thai curry which was really well balanced, full of veg and b
Came here twice during a short break whilst staying at a nearby Airbnb. Lovely food, very cosy pub with the nights drawing in, and friendly owners. Steaks, mac'n'cheese especially recommended.
A friendly atmosphere great surroundings with very polite and helpful staff great food. I had the burger and chips my wife had the fish cake and chips. Burger has to be the best I have tasted my wife said the fish cakes were amazing. Would definitely eat here again.
Lovely countryside setting. Stunning looking building. The food was absolutely delicious. The pub is run by a South African and the menu includes a few SA dishes. We've just returned to the UK after spending 40 years in Cape Town so it was nice to chat about SA. Highly recommended.
A wonderful dinner experience at bat & ball. Lovely pub near fordingbridge. Apparently they got to the finalist for GREAT PUB 2022 competition.
We came from London to visit new forest for this weekend. The food served was so good portion and very tasty. You can tell from their potato chips that eve
The food here is lovely! Best nachos we've had in a while. Proper homemade food! Would highly recommend and will definitely be returning in the near future.
Good atmosphere and a large, impressive pub garden setup. Service more than up to standard but let down slightly by a flat (and vaguely vinegary) pint of local ale. Expected to be busier on a Friday night on the main drag to Salisbury, so a blessing and a curse.
Fries arrived quickly and were tasty.
Food here is absolutely delicious, beautifully plated and all I can say is wow! The dessert platter was amazing. Best food we've had for a long time. Pub itself is beautiful and nice seating areas. 100% recommend
This was our second visit & we were not disappointed. Staff are so welcoming, friendly & helpful. Food was delicious & great portion size. We will be back.
Nice garden. Very friendly and lovely staff, couldn't be more pleasant. Food arrived very quickly.
Very average food quality though. We had beef burgers, bum and chips were great but the meat quality was really average
Nice food and friendly stuff, our first visit but will come back.
We visited twice during our holiday,, food was amazing, and very filling and freshly prepared,, i.e, not microwaved.. The atmosphere was amazing, staff were lovely, would have eaten here everyday if it was a bit closer to where we stayed.
It was our second visit to this lovely pub on the way back from seaside.
Service & food top class đź‘Ś The best thing is their garden facilities which makes an experience eating with kids hassle free. Great garden & complimentary games kept our little ones occupied for 3h ! Bliss !
We will definitely b
We had Sunday lunch, roast beef with all the trimmings. It was very nice, although there was a lot of fat vains on the meat that needed to be removed. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Prices are standard for the area.
Delicious 3 course meal - we haven’t enjoyed a meal-out like that in a very long time! 5/5
Atmosphere was calm and relaxing at 8pm perfect time for us to dine out!
staff were really friendly - Ash was particularly welcoming, friendly and he couldn’t do enough! We will definitely go back very soon!!
