The best restaurants in Pamber and Silchester Basingstoke and Deane South East

English country pub with an unspoilt interior serving cask ale. Really good experience. A range of baguettes are served that are excellent value, but only at lunch time.

I knew that this pub was under new management and my friend had recently been here and said the meal was good so I thought I would invite me friends for dinner, I was not disappointed, the service, food and cosiness of the pub was excellent and would return, I had to trout and crumble and it was delicious and could of done with some more custard. Freddie who took our order and served us was exceptionally professional and funny too. Only minor point is when we were going in from the back it looked like it could do with a bit of love and pretty flowers. Look forward to returning maybe in the autumn when the fire is on.

Filthy, dirty pub, with no atmosphere and a nasty landlord who just kept interrupting our conversation, for no reason. Chairs and table were dirty and the carpet filthy. And come payment time landlord wanted cash!!

On every occasion I have been to Little Roses previously the service is always excellent and the staff are always friendly. A group of us met there for a reunion lunch. We had booked a table in advance and were so pleased when it was decorated with flowers and waiting for our arrival. Everyone in the party was extremely happy with the food we ordered (the coronation chicken sandwiches were delish). We wanted to give it 6*!

Nice pub. Friendly staff. Only popped in for a drink but the food we saw looked nice and smelt really good.

UPDATE - all credit to restaurant who invited us back with an updated vegetarian menu and complementary meal. The quality was radically different for the mains this time. Both dishes we had were tasty and cooked well. Starter was good as before (this time we had a sharing board). Sat next to the fire which was nice too. Updated my star ratings to reflect this experience, though kept below review for reference. ORIGINAL REVIEW - Really disappointed with our meal yesterday. The menu was limited for a vegetarian, so I went for the Bean burger - it was not home made - likely previously frozen and shop bought - a very thin dry thing. The bun was also dry. Advertised as coming with hummus in the burger but the smallest amount given. Partner’s beef burger was also dry and disappointing. Starter Camembert was good and chips done well so a surprise for both mains to be so poor. Meant we didn’t dare try the dessert offering. Very frustrating to have spent around £70 overall on 2 drinks, 1 starter and 2 disappointing mains. Won’t be returning. Shame as we tried this to branch out from our regular local spots! Atmosphere and service fine however.

Brilliant Christmas Dinner - thank you to the team.

Came across this pub while out looking for somewhere to eat. Great find! Lovely lunch today. Great food, plenty of it & service and ambience is relaxed and attentive. Staff friendly and polite and made is feel very welcome. We'll definitely be back, next time with the dog!

Food here was lovely. Was asked lots about allergies.

Booked for Sunday lunch - waited an age to be seated, very pleasant environment, ordered the Sunday roast, this took 4 trips from the waitress to bring the main course - the veg, the potatoes, the gravy by the time I'd gotten all I needed the whole meal was cold - no check back, ordered dessert - the crumble that also was stone cold - again no check back, the staff were polite and helpful but seemed to lack direction and leadership and seemed more invested in the wedding which was taking place - food very underwhelming

Christmas lunch for a group of friends. Everyone enjoyed their lunch although a couple thought Brussels sprouts could have been cooked a bit longer. The turkey meal was very good and made a change to have the turkey rolled rather than in a slice. Bacon round outside kept meat moist. Aubergine meal for vegetarians was good and the selection of vegetables that everyone shared were delicious. The butternut squash soup was very much to our liking but some may have found it spicy. The atmosphere was very pleasant and the staff excellent-very helpful, accommodating and friendly.

Avoiding motorways, driving across country, we found this pub. Hosts were inviting and the food excellent, everything was fresh and prepared to order and was well presented in a timely manner. Even though I live in Sussex, the next time I’m in the area, I will head for this pub again. Thank you
