Popped in for dinner with friends. Food was excellent but atmosphere and service poor. There seemed to be a large party / function on and this clearly distracted the front of house and her demeanor seemed to spread to her team. Hopefully just a bad day because the food (even though we were told they
I was staying in the New Forest, as a Dire Straits fan (John Isley from Dire Straits owns the pub), I thought I would visit.
It would have been nice to seen more Dire Straits memorabilia in the pub, though appreciate, it’s not set up, as that type of pub!
It’s a very quaint pub, which thrives on i
This pub you need to know about, otherwise, you wouldn't know it was there. This pub is owned by the Dire Straits bass player, John Illsley. Unfortunately, there is no hot food at present at this pub, as the pub does not have a current chef. So check first if you are planning to eat there. Also, the
Despite the chef having left, we were provided with some excellent sandwiches, all served with a smile.
I was looking for a nice place to stay in the New Forest, close to Beaulieu and Exbury. I found the East End Arms on Google maps which had good reviews so booked direct on their website for 3 nights. Its a few miles outside Lymington but easy to find. There is a car park for 8 cars at the side of th
Consistently, fabulous. The food is always off the scale, delightful staff, lovely ales. They deserve every ounce of success. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon, 3 minutes prior to the kitchen closing and without a booking. They could not have been more welcoming and accommodating. We will be back!

We used this establishment for overnight accommodation. I booked 2 x superior rooms, rooms were clean and very nicely appointed excellent quality beds. The breakfast full English with locally sourced products was very good, disappointment that they had run out of several options on the breakfast men

Pleasant pub, welcoming staff, quick service
A beautiful quiet rural Public Housem No food Monday or Tuesday night, but the breakfast was delicious. You can taste the bacon and sausages. These were not from a catering pack, but sourced locally.
Had a tasty lunch there on Bank Holiday Monday. Would recommend all the dishes we tried, from the yummy scallops to seafood linguine and top quality cod & chips. The new chef is going to be one to watch for.
We had a lovely lunch at the East End Arms yesterday. My 11 yr old son, said it was 5 stars! And we agreed, the service was quick, the food was so delicious, and the wine was really lovely too. Looking forward to going back soon!
The food that I was served in the bar, Haddock, chips and peas, was fresh, perfectly cooked and nice!y presented. The bar area was OK, as were the toilets. I noticed that the paper hand towels were of high quality and nice to use. At £22, prices seemed a little high for fish and chips and a shandy.
