What maggieyaxleysmith likes about Hare And Hounds Pub:
The food and the service here is excellent. The garden is great, lots of equipment for children to enjoy and plenty of parking. We were able to book a table close to the door because of one of our friends needing ease of mobility. There is a great menu with interesting dishes and a lot of variety but most of all everything was delicious. We now try and eat here at least twice on any of our visits to the New Forest!!

Was recommended the pub by a friend. First of all this is a really lovely pub. My wifes meal was liver and bacon which she enjoyed and I had the steak and ale pie. The for the negative review is the chips weren't attractive side order, they needed to be chunky chips also my wife had the chocolate cheese cake which if you closed your eyes and tasted a spoon full there was no taste of chocolate. My wife loves puddings... View all feedback.

Nestled in a charming location, this pub offers a warm and inviting atmosphere complemented by friendly, attentive service. Diners rave about the diverse and delicious menu, featuring standout dishes like liver and bacon and mouthwatering fish pie. However, some patrons express disappointment over certain meals, particularly the overly dry Sunday roast and unremarkable dessert options. The outdoor garden is perfect for families, boasting ample space for children to play. Despite mixed experiences, many guests plan to revisit, drawn by the pub's ambiance and the potential for enjoyable dining experiences in the future. Overall, it’s a beloved spot with room for improvement.
