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

First time visit and have to say the food was the best Indian cuisine I’ve ever tasted. Staff very friendly and helpful. 100% recommend

Didn’t start well had to wait 15 mins for drinks, had to reorder as our drinks order had been lost. Got to be really honest service was a little slow for a Tuesday night. Yes the service was slow but no means poor, very few staff who were over whelmed for a Tuesdays bar and restaurant was packed out. Katherine the waitress was a very professional and calm, she could only work as quick as she could, and the same could be said of one on the bar and the another chap waiting on tables. Food was excellent and with one more member of staff things would have been better for all. Lovely place great decor and as for the vents toilets amazing. It was nice to see a good vegetarian choice with the added extra of adding a meat choice to it. Not seen this before. I love my veg and also a big meat eater and often when dinning out ask if I can have ham, sausage or other meats to add to a vegetarian meal as sometimes these are a better choice. Nice touch.

A stunning country pub with very tasteful decor (I need to know the shade of blue on the restaurant walls!) the food is absolutely astounding! I have had the chicken supreme twice now because it’s just so tasty!! The scotch egg went down too quick for a photo. Can’t help but go for three courses because I don’t want to miss a tasty morsel. Parking is easy at the car park across the road. You may need to book in advance as it’s that good! Would highly recommend! Service is great too.

More than toilets! Amazing toilets, food and service. Such a great pub and so worth the dive to a cul de sac with excellent parking. Wish I had taken more photos, next time I will.

The food was delicious, I only have one constructive comment. The beef gave the initial impression it was tough. The meat was tender once you had it in your mouth. The blunt knife gave the meat a false impression. Please sharpen your knives. I wasn’t the only one mentioning the blunt knife. My wife who has arthritis in her hands had to take the meat home for the dogs. Otherwise great

Booked here this evening and had a superb meal, the atmosphere was really nice and made to feel at home. The service was second to none and Gabrielle was attentive in all aspects of what was needed to make the visit a memorable one. Price of the meal was spot on costing just over £25 PP including a drink (I had two pints) for a 2 course meal. They had a guest ale on which I was assured is a regular thing. All in all a really nice place to have a meal with a good menu selection and a specials board as well.

We went to Fox and Hounds for my mum's birthday meal at lunch time today. It was absolutely lovely. Ellen was extremely upbeat despite the restaurant being absolutely packed. There were multiple large groups in for their Christmas meal but Ellen did her best to make sure everyone was taken care of. She advised us that there would be a delay on mains which was fine. The food was definitely worth the wait, everything was superb. And the dessert was best of all. My mum and I ordered the "melting festive bell" and the staff had put it on a cheese board for my mum, with happy birthday written in chocolate and a little tealight for her to blow out. It really made her feel special they completely went the extra mile and made it a fantastic meal for all. My parents haven't been here in almost 40 years and will definitely be coming back. The venue was also decorated beautifully for christmas with a roaring fire in the grate.

I am so happy I got what I ordered! No oil, no olive oil, just butter, salt and water. The sea bass is divine, fresh from the sea and the vegetables were perfect. Sophie suggested I try Chapel Down as it was my first time and she is such a connoisseur of these English sparkling wines that I can't wait to try again. The staff are so friendly and amazing. Also they are Pet friendly too!

The food was lovely, although could've been warmer. The service was slow but I'm not sure if that's cos we were sat out of the way in the corner. I would definitely come back, but not on a time crunch

We had a lovely lunch here. Such a beautiful setting. They are new still and finding their feet with front of house/service etc but we didn't have to wait long for our food, the pizza was delicious and the cakes and ice cream were also really nice.

Ian and the team here are fantastic and so cooperative! The food is beautiful and the atmosphere is beautiful on a sunny day.

Amazing food, lovely atmosphere great music. Very helpful staff, thank you for a wonderful visit, we will definitely be back!

The meals were excellently priced, £10 for the Munch Brunch which was delicious and filling. The staff were also so friendly.

Good service especially checking and giving information of allergies and intolerance. Waiting staff very open to discussing the options. Parking good. Beer fine. Nieve served us well However I find it strange that while all the table sauces and salt are in see through glass condiments the pepper is not. Pepper mill is wooden and mostly empty. When suggested the use of refillable glass pepper mills might be better than wooden I was give the message that it was " company policy" to use them . This is a policy which should be reconsidered as see through pepper mills could be quickly replaced when low or empty

Meg Has been super kind and Great Server. She’s funny and attentive. 5* all round.

Met up with a friend & her partner for a long overdue catch up. First time for the 3 of as to visit this place and we liked it throughout are stay here for a Sunday lunch and dessert. A massive beer garden and car park so can't go wrong there. Staff was nice enough busy while we was there as it was the last bank holiday weekend in May.
