The Best Restaurants in Andover, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

I visited the restaurant twice on the same day. Having breakfast in the morning, we chose the Turkish sharing breakfast, I was so eager to return that I came back for dinner that evening. On both occasions, the staff were very attentive, polite, and efficient. Quality and quantity of the food was fantastic, with the breakfast being of particular note. Just look at the photo. I will definitely be back.

We celebrated my mums 80th birthday at this restaurant and it was brilliant. The service was excellent. So friendly and kind. Nothing was too much trouble. Food came quickly and was well cooked and tasty and tasted amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. We really had a great time and will definitely be going back. Couldn’t get over how friendly the staff are. Definitely worth 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic food, very friendly staff, reasonably priced too! We've come here at least 8 times now, that's how great it is! Ayaz, Mimi and Andreea the waiter/waitresses are the best here! We've invited all our friends and family to come along, it's a lovely establishment, you will not be disappointed! They've recently updated their menu. But there are still a few classic options on there. Everything we've tried so far has been fantastic. Come down and see for yourself, it's a lovely place to come for dinner in Andover

Amazing addition to andover, best place for authentic Turkish breakfast. Top service & very welcoming. Highly recommend Update: 26/02/25: Visited again & top service as usual. Lovely food especially pasta & sea bass.

Had a wonderful meal this evening! Not had jerk chicken since our wedding and it was absolutely delicious! The service was great, portions were good and i’m so pleased we’ve found this hidden gem in Andover town centre. We will be back for sure!

Highly recommend! Andover needs somewhere like this! We’ve not found anywhere similar! We had BBQ wings, halloumi, JERK chicken burger with fries & JERK pork which came with coleslaw and Mac n cheese. Everything was spot on! The sauces were great! Meat tender full of flavour. Can’t fault a thing. Food 10/10 service 10/10 nice atmosphere! Really good selections of drinks, cocktails, beers, wines, soft drinks! They even offer catering for parties etc. We forgot to take pictures of the food because it didn’t stay on the plate very long! Really reasonably priced and good portions! We were STUFFED!

The food was incredible and the portion sizes were really great for the price you pay! The servers were lovely and friendly and we're looking forward to coming again. Definitely the best place to eat in Andover

We came in early on a Saturday night, made use of the happy hour- delicious cocktails! We had a mixture of starters and mains which were all well presented and very tasty. Servers were all friendly, no long waits (although it was quiet at the time) and the music was good. Would recommend.

Small, intimate almost, but with a big heart. You walk in and greeted almost immediately by the Bar/host staff in front. Seating to the left in table format with cosier sofa array in the window. A large range of drinks available displayed on the chalkboard, but with a small almost hard to see QR code to scan to see ingredients of each drink. Nice touch but awkward to navigate to start. We sat in the other window seat staring into the eyes of the bar staff, felt odd as were we waiting for drinks, like waiting for a takeaway. However the drinks arrived, packed with flavour, subtle notes, and a lingering taste. Relaxing music played and you sit back watching around you. You forget it's quite small and enjoy the condensed space. Large parties no doubt would have to book the venue, but a party of 2 can walk in. Good vibes, good drinks, will be back

brilliant service, super lovely staff and great cocktails, charcuterie boards with the bottomless brunch is a great idea and executed perfectly, only complaint is there could be a radiator or two as it was quite cold but other than that, an extremely pleasant evening!

Booked a table for drinks and would defo recommend! Lovely staff, quick service, amazing drinks at a good price. Will be coming back to try some food next time!

Nice little place. Mostly cocktails it seemed. A decent selection of craft beers, if a little one dimensional We had some chicken burgers which were good, fries even a little bit better. Really friendly staff.

This was are first visit to this Indian restaurant and would after say this is one of the best we have been to the food is absolutely delicious the only minor gripe I would have is there is no breathing time in between courses as food is brought out one after the other maybe this is because you allocated 120 minutes eating and drinking time

We tried the lunch menu. The thali (butter chicken, rice, naan, salad, tarka dhal, poppadum) set menu offered extremely good value for money and was great tasting, authentic food. See the menu for other meat and vegetarian options. The customer service was also excellent. Can't fault our visit.

The restaurant's atmosphere is superb, and the waitstaff are very friendly, taking the time to patiently explain the menu. This is the best Indian restaurant I've eaten at in the UK, and I highly recommend it to anyone. Another pleasant surprise is that the restaurant is really clean and tidy, also it’s has air conditioning, which is much appreciated given the recent heatwave in the UK.

Everytime we go away its our tradition to go for Indian food and it definitely did not disappoint. Atmosphere was great, staff couldnt of done more, staff knew exactly what spices were in each meal, didn't need to go and "ask the chef", very professional. Food is to die for, every single thing was amazing, butter chicken was perfectly cooked so was lamb shank, probably the best lamb shank we ever had in any restaurant. Will be visiting again once we come this way!

Amazing local beers and gins. Staff is incredibly friendly and there is a feeling of community in the pub. I travelled from Norwich and felt it was my local. Friendly customers too.

Great local tap room. Superb ever changing selection of cask and keg ales to suit most pallets along with huge selection of ciders. Always a great welcoming atmosphere both by bar staff and regulars. Dog treats provided.

Best pub to drink in andover. Friendly bar staff and patrons. Always a good selection of beers that change between visits so there is always something new. For anyone who wants a proper pint, come to the tap.

A small brewery tap with a gin bar at the back very welcoming and friendly both customers and staff a bit difficult to find without map

Wow.. the food is amazing, fresh, and just beautiful. Had the Miso soup and Rainbow platter. It was soooo good had to order another platter

Sushi was absolutely amazing, and the sweet rolls with banana and strawberries were so delicious!!! Would have not expected such a good food honestly. On a pricey side and the wait time was a bit long but all was worth in the end.

Absolutely love this place! It was our first time, but definitely not the last. My partner and I shared two plates, and it was amazing. The pub is next door, so you can bring your own drink.

Always a joy to come and have dinner at sultans. We always get the pleasure of having Dom as our waiter and he's fantastic at giving recommendations from the menu. Always accommodate my little girl and happy to make her a smaller portion. Brilliant food and lovely atmosphere always. Would highly recommend.

Honestly, this venue comes without fault, or at least for me, it did! As someone who works in the industry of hospitality, it is a pleasure to be served at such a high quality. Apon booking on the same day as visit (glad i did as was fully booked by arrival time!) Receiving a call about my notes on my allergen (being told it is a NUT FREE VENUE is a huge plus by myself ) to the service received is second to none I've had before. All servers are super attentive! The gentleman behind the bar who is able to upsell and clear glasses off the table is a breath of fresh air! The server recommendation to change my meal as the one I chose would potentially be "chewy" vs, his recommendation was so outstanding and also highly correct as the meal i received melted in my mouth and something I've never chosen. To be told to change my choice, I highly respected and never thought off as I've always put up up with slightly chewy meat/ what i expect from being a child always choosing the same thing... But the biggest shout out is pleasing my partner who would rather a Chinese over Indian food any day (who I had to talk into going with my selection to try Sultans as I had heard such good things and who grew up in Indian style restaurants) who had been blow away by the flavour of food, service and flavours he was presented with and even said on route home would happily now become a regular... which is outstanding!! Thank you to the team at Sultans. You made my celebration night one I will not forget, and we will be back!

A fabulous Curry house, serving food fit for a king. Or should I say Sultan. We enjoyed some wonderful food and a lovely bottle of Provence rose.

What a fantastic meal, super impressed with the quality of food and amazing service! Really fresh food, the best we’ve had in a long time! Will definitely visit again! Momo sauce incredible, we also had a curry, Nan and rice which was superb! Thank you

Great food, served at an African pace, to enjoy at an African pace with friends and family. The “Jollof” rice with a side of goat and spicy sauce was very tasty, and you can’t go wrong when you order a burger and it comes with 2 chicken legs! Take your own wine or beer and stay for a while! Also, it’s attached to an awesome African Supermarket!

Beautiful food, great service and a warm atmosphere. We had the spicy chicken wings and puff puff to start, the puff puff were so good! For mains we had the egusi with fufu and ofada rice with ayamase. We will definitely be back to try more dishes!

Very authentic Nigerian dishes, recommend jollof rice with goat. 🐐

Tonight I visited the restaurant with a friend from Ghana, we had a lovely meal, the staff were really helpful with helping me choose food as I’ve never experienced African food before. Lovely lovely food , and a wonderful experience, we will definitely be visiting again . A hidden gem in Andover . They even do English breakfast at a very reasonable price. Burgers and AMAZING African food.

Great Thai restaurant, the food is always good. Very friendly staff, great selection of Thai dishes which can be customised to exactly how you want them! Would definitely recommend!

I went with 2 friends and their puppy, for a meal. What a total gem of a pub. It was such a lovely cosy pub and the Thai food was beautiful. They go often, as they enjoy it there, and I can see why. The staff are so friendly and helpful too, which made it even more enjoyable. We had 3 starters to share between us, 3 mains, 3 drinks and a nibbles and it came to just under £100 for the 3 of us. So we thought that was pretty good.

Had a very good meal out. Food was excellent and great service. Definitely going back to try more of the menu. So many nice dishes to choose from.

High recommend if you what to taste Thai food and the location is enchanting. The waitress was so lovely. She moved us to a table near the fireplace to have lunch. We loved it

Best pub in the area by far! Has something for everyone, cosy inside ‘traditional’ pub area, beautifully decorated conservatory, fun pub garden with giant deckchair and umbrella ceiling, and a couple of pods plus the posh pod! Food is always stellar and a great selection of pub favourites, burgers and specials. Best pub dessert menu by far. Or great just for a few after work drinks in the garden. And the service is always impeccable. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Beautiful country pub with a lovely selection of food. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere would highly recommend

Took a good friend to lunch at this lovely pub. Exceptional food, atmosphere and a log fire which a bonus on this dull and rainy day. She is a coeliac which limits her choices, but at the Oak she had plenty of options. Would recommend a visit. We had a main course and dessert with hot chocolate all of which was superb.

I have been coming to this pub for a good 5-6 years now it has been local to my area and everyone that I have brought for a quality time has said what a beautiful place, surrounded by nature, in a quiet village on the outskirts of Andover. The Owners are ever so friendly and welcome to anyone. Would recommend 100% to any person.
