Dukes Head - Test Valley

This review is for the pub and not the hotel. I went for Sunday lunch on 15 September with 20 others and I I can honestly say I had one of the best pub lunches ever. I had sea bass with Elton Mess to follow. Both absolutely delicious and lots of lovely vegetables too. The young ladies who looked after us (mainly elderly ……US NOT the young ladies!!!! were so kind, pleasant and helpful. The food and wine were a bit on the expensive side but well worth it. I mean to take my family for a pub lunch soon and The Duke will be top of the list! One small query is the vegan option but we’ll check the menu before we book. Many thanks

Popped in (to see how the Duke pub has improved) and were not disappointed! A new extention has seen a new restaurant area, and generally the whole pub is much more airey light. We will definitely be back to sample the food, alas we didn't have the time on this visit.

Exceptional food and service. Added bonus of a Gin and Jazz night. The calves liver was cooked to perfection. Defo be back

Service was slow had to ask them to take our order a couple of times. Waited over 25 mins for drinks to come to table before ordering food. Food nice but only tepid in temperature. Needs improvement generally.

Fabulous meal and service in beautiful surroundings. Nothing was too much trouble
