Just had the most delicious quiche ever! My wife had the tomato soup which was wholesome and tasty too. £12.95 total so great value too. Highly recommended cafe and all sorts of lovely eco-friendly things in the shop too.

A cute cafe that sells delicious drinks. The staff are friendly. The shop sells organic and vegan food. You can also refill your faith in nature products. Overall, it was a lovely place. I'd definitely recommend 👌

What a fabulous hidden gem! Mushroom and celariac soup was divine. Bakery smells fill the air. A wonderful community which is very obviously doing great things. Well done.

Had a fantastic evening here on Tuesday with a group of us celebrating 2 birthdays - couldn’t fault a single thing if I tried. Definitely the best restaurant locally. The food, atmosphere (even on a week night) and friendly attentive service are second to none. If you haven’t tried it yet then you’re missing out!

What a fabulous find. Just a few steps from the main road and parking. What an oasis of food, we only popped in for a coffee and ended up eating brocheta and a pizza between us. The .Manager was delightful. We are just moving to the area so will put this restaurant at the top of our list.

Delightful cafe close to Breamore House which, unlike the house, is open all year round. We visited on an overcast day in March and can’t wait to visit on a warm day as the outside tables look lovely! Very relaxed vibe, friendly too with both dog and small grandchild welcomed. Food tasty and fresh, alcohol available too but it was too early in the day for us. Most of the other clients were in hiking gear and looking at the map there are some great walks close by. We’ll be back for coffee followed by a walk and back again for lunch! I can fully recommend this place

A cute little cafe, but I feel like it's missing something special. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food on offer had a wide range with bagels, sandwiches cakes etc. I think this could be so much more with a couple of tweaks with offering local bakery items like bread etc. Flat White and Dirty Chai were quite milky, Coffee could have been stronger.

What a gem of a place ! Lovely team of people working here and also the other places on the estate. I really enjoyed my coffee and cake - it was delicious. My good lady had a MASSIVE tuna sandwhich - it was so large, she kept half for later ! Also the decor here is absoultely classy and elegant. I'm so glad to have found this (the new signs on the main road are working !!!). I'm looking forward to coming back to the Cafe, it really made my wife's and I visit a lovely time out.

Beautiful walks. Scenery. Getting down with nature is a must. Brilliantly presented with great indoor view sheds to watch wildlife. So bring ya cameras. And binoculars, you will have a very good time.

If you like a walk in the woods with stop offs to watch the birds both in the woods and on the lakes, then this place is for you. There are well marked trails which are easy walking. They are also pushchair and wheelchair accessible but there are some kissing gates which could be difficult to negotiate with a chair.

Nice place for a morning visit (longer if you're a birder). Plenty of solid gravel paths leading to a number of hides. Toilet facilities at the main car park.

There's so much to see and do here... if you can find it! We're not local but were holidaying in the New Forest and wanted a wooded walk and an opportunity to see some wildlife but the signposting is poor. Perhaps that's the 'cunning plan' as it was quite and peaceful. I suppose you could call it a 'hidden gem'! There are plenty of well signposted trails once you're in but wellies or walking boots are a must! The bird hides are well positioned and there was plenty to see even in winter. Best of all, it's all free (although donations are encouraged).

Having walked the streets of the beautiful village of Ringwood, many times, had coffee and eaten in almost every place, I have no idea, how I missed this little spot! Insignificant from the outside, but step inside and you will be treated to a taste of Italy! You know from the moment you walk through the door, that this will be a good experience! Clean, authentic, genuine Italian business with Artisan food and wines to showcase Italy’s beautiful produce. Having not eaten there before, I opted for the dish of the day which was a safe bet. A beautiful pear and pecorino ravioli. A simple, humble dish, what could go wrong? Well, absolutely nothing! In fact, all my expectations were exceeded and left me yearning for a next visit. Super little place, great atmosphere, really good food and lots of goodies to treat yourself to enjoy at home. Melt in the mouth pasta, bursting with flavour. Simple ingredients where the produce is respected and the food speaks for itself. Great for lunch, I am sure dinner is just as good and with some great quality wines, specialist collections, you can’t go too far wrong.

I really enjoyed my mussels and pasta! A bit of feedback would be to serve the mozzarella with better tomatoes - even in winter in the U.K. one can get ones with some flavour ☺️

Went there a couple of time and both times the food was fantastic. The first time I had pizza and it was delicious. I also went for the Tuscan event as I was excited to eat the food from my home region. The food was authentic and well executed, each dish was paired to a glass of wine. The wine was well reasearched and came from top producers in Tuscany. They remain true to authentic Italian food and the quality of the food is great.

Our new favourite! We are becoming weekly visitors at this brilliant, great value addition to our town. Yes, the menu is perhaps simple - but the food is really great. Always hot, tasty, good sized portions and served with a smile. I must say we always ask to sit downstairs as the ambience is always better - upstairs is a bit cold. The staff value their customers and we love eating here. Welcome to our town!

Great food, great service. Plenty to eat as you share with the table bread and dips which creates a very family dinning feel. Friendly staff, and efficient timings. The atmosphere is very inviting, warm and cozy. Often it can be quite booked, so I would recommend to try and book in advance, it seems to be a popular restaurant of Ringwood currently. A little more pricey overall, but the quality and quantity of food makes it worthwhile.

I can see why is has a good reputation for their Sunday carvery. Don't want to shout too loud in case we can't get in there again because it's too busy! The beef was cooked to perfection, still pink in the middle. We spent a weekend in the area and visited this pub every day, with our dog, who was made to feel very welcome. Lovely pub, great food and great staff.

Amy whom served us was lovely, the food was really nice, dogs are welcomed, toilets were clean, food wasn't the cheapest but it reflects the quality. I had a burger and the base of the bun was still dry at the end of the meal (ie the burger was not full of fat), the bacon (for me) was underdone but the chef was very happy to make it crispy for me. Definitely recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Alice Lisle in Ringwood, and I must say, the environment is absolutely amazing. Whether you're dining inside or outside, the setting is perfect for a leisurely lunch, especially on a sunny day by the lake. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making the experience even more enjoyable. The meal was simply astonishing. The squid starter was delicious, and the steak ale pie was out of this world, with a delicate fennel flavor that perfectly complemented the steak. I have to give a special mention to the cappuccino—I've never had one quite like it! Someone, please tell me how the barista makes that cream on top. The prices are very fair, with starters around £10, main meals around £17, and drinks and hot drinks each at about £4. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delightful dining experience.

I love coming to the Alice Lisle, the staff are always lovely and I look forward to seeing what's on the menu. The pub itself is beautiful at all times of the year. It was very quiet for a Friday night but that could be something to do with the freezing rain outside! We meet friends for dinner and drinks and had a lovely night overall. Pie of the day was steak and ale and was presented really well. Even the burger and chips had great presentation. I had the pan fried chicken "breast" risotto which tasted lovely but wasn't breast unfortunately! Though the chicken skin went well with it. I recommend their zinfandel rosé wine, sweet and tasty!

Been here a few times now, and it is a lovely pub. Had the Sunday roast, which was good. It tends to get quite busy, so it might be good to book a table. Pet-friendly in some areas. Lovely in the summer with the outdoor area and the play area for older children.

A fantastic selection of brunch choices! Speedy and high quality service, it can often be quite busy in the café but fortunately I've always managed to find a table. They have 3 floors to choose from. You have the choice of ordering either via their QR code using your phone or downstairs at the till. They largely promote the use of recycling and reusable options wherever possible. Plenty of flavour in the food, plenty of drink selection, I'd also say good portion sizes for the price; a little more expensive that a lower end brunch style, but perfect for a little treat!

Love the interior of this place. Atmosphere is great. Visited on a Saturday for a quick lunch. Coffee is decent and tuna toastie came with side salad and chips which was a large portion and very tasty. Female staff really friendly. Food came out quite slow even though it wasn’t busy and they forgot to bring our bill after we asked.

Met up with some friends at Framptons, and wow, what a place! The customer service was absolutely amazing. The GM personally took the time to chat with us, going through all the cool events they run (seriously, there’s always something happening!). They kept checking in to make sure we were all good, which made us feel really looked after. The interior? Stunning. It’s got that perfect mix of cosy and stylish, making it a great spot to relax, catch up, and soak in the atmosphere. If you haven’t been yet, highly recommend!

If you're looking for a venue for a function then Framptons is the place. We wanted to book their upstairs room for my girlfriend's 25th birthday dinner party, which Amanda helped us organise - she sat down with us in the bar and planned everything out to our liking. We were given freedom to decorate, put on our own music, set up karaoke, the works. They also provided us a set dinner menu to our liking and covered vegetarian options for those in our party needing it. Amanda was a star when it came to communication, organisation, and just overall a massive help. The price of throwing the function was very reasonable which included 14 two course meals, 6 bottles of prosecco for the table, a private bar, private use of the whole upstairs room, and unbeatable service from all the staff - running up the food and serving us drinks all night (shout out to Lee, we'll pay for his therapy after having to listen our karaoke all night 😂) Being allowed to get down early in the day and decorate was also a bit help and they had the tables, chairs, cutlery, etc all ready for us which made everything a breeze when we started to add our decorations. Again, the team could not have been more helpful. The night was perfect and we had a lot of fun, we all loved the food for not just the flavour (which was incredible) but the portion sizes too, absolutely spot on. Lee was great on the bar and went above and beyond to run drinks up and down the stairs. All in all Framptons provided us with a night to remember and we're all very thankful 🙌
