Reviews in Hampshire

Excellent Sunday roast and the chicken and leek pie roast was also very good. Super value for money and great pub atmosphere.

We always visit the Platform Tavern when visiting So’ton, especially on a Sunday…… excellent roasts with generous serving of meat at a great price and equally good sticky toffee pudding. Always have a decent range of beers/ales on tap and the frequent live music acts are a definite bonus. Thanks to the friendly staff, great service!

Went for Sunday lunch with family. Fabulous roasts and really cosy winter environment. Lovely service. Ideal Sunday lunch.

A very enjoyable lunch with friends, friendly and helpful staff.

Brilliant food, great service. Getting to be quite a regular at The Master Builder. Well done everyone!

Disappointing given the good reviews. Staff were friendly and restaurant was clean. Food however was average at best. Roast potatoes were difficult to cut, cauliflower was undercooked and broccoli was soggy. Very stingy with the custard although the crumble was tasty. Drinks order was very slow. Restaurant was oddly decorated with a mismatch of furniture. Smokers constantly opening and closing the sliding door by our table letting in a cold draught. Won’t be frequenting again.

Delicious food, great atmosphere and a perfect location for a catch up with my girlfriends!

Food was lovely, however as they weren’t busy they didn’t have as much food out, so we had limited options to choose from yet we were still charged full price

Really enjoyed the whole experience staff were helpful and friendly food was amazing good value for money

Great visit, would definitely come again if in the area. Lovely welcome from the staff, no issue with bringing our dogs. Only had non-alcoholic drinks. Meals were all delicious, the portions were probably a bit too large as we didn't have room for dessert! This was a shame as I'm sure they were delicious. Staff attentive and friendly, restaurant super clean. Thanks!

We go every year for my Dad’s birthday. He likes to try abit of everything. Food was fantastic, flavourful, hot and plenty of choices. Would recommend. It gets quite busy weekends as you can imagine but plenty of space to move around tables (I have a crutch). I had no problems and has a lift. Staff were friendly helpful and had food topped up or cooking food to order.

Really lovely roast - one of our party is coeliac and the approach / service of the venue gave us confidence that they know what they're doing. The food was excellent as was the service. We'll definitely go back!

I was pleasantly surprised by our meal at baja. Having looked at the menu online I was a bit sceptical. However, the food options and quality was amazing. A really good mix of meat and vegeterian options. We went for 3 tacos and had one each with a side (not great just potato and cheese.) would really recommend just ordering a few tacos.

Popped in for Sunday Lunch and to watch some Rugby. The Roast Beef main was superb, excellent veggies too. One of our party had the veggie option (Stilton and Mushroom Puff Pastry Wellington with a White Wine and Mushroom Sauce) and it went down well. Always a good buzz at the Chequers and the Sunday lunch added to the treat. Great value for money. Thanks to all the staff. Really prompt service.

Amazing food and excellent service. Will definitely be returning again very soon

Lovely Sunday lunch, thank you

Don’t live local to Spoon but just had to visit again . Great food so much to choose from covers all kinds of diets . Friendly staff . Very comfortable restaurant . Staff are always keeping dishes topped up . Absolute pleasure to dine there . Definitely be back .

My favourite in the area, I am a local in my 30’s and I’ve been to every pub worth going to and there’s no other quite like it. A true classic pub with a friendly local atmosphere. Great food and great drinks. The aesthetic has a lived in charm and a no fuss approach which is truly refreshing in today’s pub culture!
