A lovely, extremely dog friendly pub with a great menu of pub classics. We had a sausage baguette and a pulled pork baguette. Both were yummy and really reasonably priced, and the waiter bought treats over for our pooch!

Super meal and service was spot on . The quality of food is excellent here, the welcome and service was cheerful , timely and didn’t intrude , and the value for money is amazing . Busy on a Thursday eve with locals which is good to see. Lovely atmosphere. Recommend the Admirals Pie !

Lovely pub that's just outside the New Forest. Lovely atmosphere, helpful staff and quick service. We had a table booked for 11 of us so they do take bookings. The decor is quirky but all associated with the countryside, horses, beer/pub drinks, hares and hounds. Staff were friendly, polite and had a sense of humour - which is always a good thing. They got all 11 meals out at the same time within about 20-25 minutes of ordering (we ordered 9 different dishes!) it was impressive. Food is more expensive than I'd expect of a pub (£13.95-15.95 for most mains) but portions were extremely generous and food quality was great. They have specials each day which were on a board.

This was our first visit, even though we live quite nearby. I’m sure we’ll be visiting again. It’s clearly very popular, it was pretty busy early on Thursday lunchtime. But they quickly found a table for us (with our wet dog).
Very impressed with prompt and friendly table service, a choice of good ales, and tasty scampi & chips.

We didn't book but managed to get a table. Service was good. The pie was perfect, the pastry was buttery and generously filled. Husband's gammon and chips were really good too. Highly recommended.

Lovey Pub 🍻
Great Food, lovely staff and a nice warm atmosphere.
We had our 2 dogs with us and felt very welcome, water bowls provided and no fuss. 10/10 👍
I recommend anything they have created themselves from the menu, everyone at our table was very impressed. I had the Hare and Hounds chicken and mushroom and it was divine 😋

Both of us had Turkey Schnitzel with salad, chips and coleslaw. It was a massive, delicious plateful. Everything was presented beautifully and even the chips were crisp and tasted sooo good. The staff were welcoming and friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed both our visit and the food.

An excellent lunch.
An interesting menu with food that was well prepared and presented. Portions are generous.
The Turkey Schnitzel daily special was excellent.
Friendly staff and reasonable prices.
We'll be back.

Lovely old fashioned pub, dogs allowed too. Took a while for someone to take our food order, we'll worth the wait. I had a gorgeous fish pie very tasty with lots of cheese on top. My husband had gammon, which he thoroughly enjoyed.

Wonderful place with a very welcoming staff. We read reviews before we came and were not disappointed. We had fish and chips (which was recommended on reviews) and chicken Hair and Hounds Style. Everything was delicious! Humorous plaques made our day after driving today to Sway from Midlands through torrential rain.
