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.

Excellent place , highly recommended the food is amazing and the staff were very friendly especially Jojo who served us and was brilliant. Very busy at the weekend so highly recommend to book it in advance. . Great selection of menu and also festival menu two course for 28£ . Will definitely visit again.

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!

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.
