Big old pub, excellent service from friendly staff. Food portions are big and food is cooked really well by the friendly chef. Highly recommend this pub. We went there for a Sunday roast after walking out of The Crown (awful place). One of us had the nut roast which was delicious. Others had the chicken and beef roasts, puddings were big portions, all food was really good quality.

Jon's a bloody good chef! We'll always come when we know he's cooking. Restaurant can be a bit chilly over winter but I know you have plans to sort that. Great beers, great Rioja. Lovely waitresses and great hosts! See you again soon. Pete & Pauline.

Yes, been here with my wife and my little boy! Once we arrived at the reception we have been welcoming with smile! Was really busy evening with lots of customers! We been invited to our table and handed over the menus including the Christmas which unfortunately you can't have it if not everyone goes for it, but a la carte was good enough! Quickly we received the high chair and the lovely lady from Poland come over with water and introducing her self. I've seen few managers been running around the place which made you feel looked after! Overall, food and service was really good! Yes, definitely come back for my Cruzcampo! ❤️

Came here for date night with my boyfriend - our waiter (lad with piercings and long dreadlocks) was really lovely and very attentive! The food did take quite a while to come out (completely understandable as the place was packed) but our waiter was very apologetic and offered us a round of drinks on the house - and the food was delicious, absolutely worth the wait :) Shame I only discovered this place right before I'm moving out of the area - otherwise I would definitely be returning!

Such a delight to eat here before going to the Anvil for a show. We had 4 starters to share, fries, a bottle of wine and some sparkling water. I recommend the king prawns, the Asian chicken pieces and the tempura vegetables. All simply delicious, piping hot, quickly served and just the right amount. The staff were excellent and the service was faultless. They were all really lovely.

A lovely victoriana themed restaurant. It feels like you are sitting in someone's victorian drawing room. My family and I popped in for breakfast. The staff were lovely and the food was great. I will definitely be going back for dinner.

We've just enjoyed a lovely couple of days here. Stayed overnight to meet friends. Perfect location by the river. Great for wildlife & dog walks. The rooms were very comfortable & nicely furnished. Everything was thought of, even down to an iron & ironing board. The toiletries were gorgeous & the showers huge with rain & normal shower heads. Now for the food. It was absolutely delicious with generous portions for a change. We ate in both the restaurant & pub areas. Loved the fairy lights in the restaurant. It looked really beautiful. Would make a great location for a special occasion. Finally the staff were very friendly & the customer service was excellent.

Me & my partner got married here. I cannot recommend this venue enough. The food was great, the staff were fantastic. The accommodation on site was perfect. Special mention to Flo. She was our wedding coordinator. She was amazing. Made the day stress free. Top notch!

Visited the restaurant here, nice cosy atmosphere here and was surprised at how busy it was on a Monday evening. The service was great. I had the vegan katsu curry which I highly recommend, even as a non-vegetarian, and the sticky toffee pudding too. Only negatives, it was a little cold where we were sitting in the restaurant and the car park was totally dark making it a bit difficult to park. Other than that it was a nice meal!

I visited las iguanas with two friends last night as a small celebration 🎊. Artur was our waiter for the night and asked what we were celebrating, I told him I was getting married in a few weeks and he congratulated me and we spoke a little bit about it. He made the night a wonderful one by sharing anecdotes and making sure our food and drinks arrived in timely manner. He checked in on us occasionally to see if we needed anything which was much appreciated. Artur was very attentive and just great all round. The food and drinks were also really great. We will definitely be back and would recommend to others!

Our experience at The Hatch was great. We had chicken strips & crispy squid for starters which were great. We had the cheddar & bacon burger and the mixed grill for mains, they were amazing! The burger was a tasty burger, chunky patty and crispy bacon, and the jam all together tasted great. The mixed grill was arguably the best mixed grill I’ve had. Great size portions of steak and gammon, could do with a little more peppercorn sauce though. We both had the sticky toffee pudding for desert, it was rich and flavoursome. Lovely ending to a perfect 3 course meal. We were served by Bella, she was a star. Everything done right, and was attentive and patient. Will be recommending it to others and will make sure to come back again. 5 Stars, 10/10.

When visiting my relatives in Basingstoke, I find the Hatch the best place for a good meal in good surroundings. It's very popular and worth booking in advance. Then there's still the problem of finding a parking space when you get there! The menu is varied and I have no difficulty in trying something new there, should I wish to. Meals are of very good quality and usually delicious. I've always found the staff here very friendly and totally efficient. The Hatch has beautiful gardens and outdoor seating should the weather be good enough. Highly recommended.

Lovely staff but because there were few staff on the service was a bit slow. We weren't in a rush so it was fine. Good food, overpriced drinks - £8.40 for two diet cokes. Good choice of food on the kids menu though and the kids meal had brilliant presentation and was a good size portion. I would come back!

Nice course, well maintained. Lots of variety in the types of holes. Staff and other players were very friendly. Bunkers could use some more sand (except the one in the picture...that one had more than enough 😂).

Absolutely fantastic, the way they handled the arrival and the Wake as a whole was to be admired, This Golf Club appeared to be brand new but my reason for visiting was the Wake of a good friend and around 100 persons came from the funeral. Well done Basingstoke Golf Club you were brilliant.

Staff are so friendly and helpful. Took my girl in for a day yesterday and they were all reassuring and the information provided when we collected her was super helpful. Her cut was small and neat. Have used this branch for 15 yrs and would never go anywhere else. The only downside is a month after my dogs spay, I got a message saying I owed them money for additional tablets they issued at the operation day, I have paid it, but it was their error as they forgot to add it to the invoice! So be aware of your bill so as not to fall fowl of their errors.

Very friendly service and always on time. The nurses and vets treat all animals the same from my rats to my kitten. It's better than the vets I last had with my cat years ago. But shame not one closer to basingstoke town centre as its quite a way to go but still worth it.

Had a table booked for 13:30 for a family gathering, 6 people. Was greeted with a lovely welcome and shown to a table. We ordered our meals and had a fantastic time. All commented on how good the food was and I believe my steak was one of the best flavoured steaks I’ve had. Next time we are back in Basingstoke we’ll visit again.

Came with my family 15 in total, most had the carvery, and it was very good plenty of meat and vegetables, if I had to complain it would be the potatoes were a bit hard. All the staff behind the bar and front of house were friendly and helpful. All in all will be back and next time with my dog thank you.

Randomly selected place with family and what a surprise! Nice outdoor playground for youngsters, indoor as well as outdoor seating, decent looking decor and pretty good selection of foods and beverages. What surprised as most were still fairly low prices (considering current situation) and very good portion sizes! Staff kind and helpful. Will be more than happy to come back!

Our Christmas meal experience was far superior to our previous visit two weeks ago. We were warmly welcomed by Katie who went over and above to make our Christmas dinner experience really special. The food was delicious. Well cooked and tasty. The vegetables had also been cooked properly; still crunchy! Having visited last Christmas we felt that serving the main meal via the carvery was an improvement. Last year servers brought all elements to the table. Having the carvery meant a good choice of food was available. From booking the meal to paying the bill everything ran smoothly!

I have very recently attended this vets at opposite ends of dog lives, when my chihuahua needed to be pts and vet checks and injections for a litter of sausage dog puppies and the treatment I received was second to none. The respect and time needed to say my goodbyes to my much loved old girl was second to none and I received a lovely card and forget me not seeds which have been scattered around her grave. Also 5 puppies that were noisy had the utmost attention and not a single sound from them during the actual injection! Thank you

The vets at GP are professional and friendly. My cat had a very bad leg, and I was grateful that she was able to see her usual vet quickly. He examined her, took an x-ray, and understood and treated the problem the same day. She's much better now thanks to GP. Her insurance claim was sorted efficiently too.

Very good value for money for a family of four (£18) on an 18 hole golf course. Not the most intricate of courses and some of the holes seemed a little unfair as the ground was bumpy which makes it very hard to judge based on skill. That said, we had a great afternoon.

We did (or rather my husband did) play the par 3 9 hole golf course. It was great value at £5 and looked like a good course for beginners. Well kept and clean with bins around it. We then went to do Knight Quest mini golf but then it was peak time for families. It looked fun but two adults against 50 children seemed a bit of a drag!

I play there quite often . It's a great place for golfers that play 18 hole full size courses. I do not use tees that way it's like playing off the fairway so your practicing approach shots to the greens and when you miss the green you get to practice your pitch /chipping shots . I like to play 2 rounds . For seniors it's only £5.30 per round and there is also a driving range .
