I must apologise to the proprietors of The Elsted Inn for my less than favourable review last time, I hadn't realised everything was prepared from scratch, so I went back for a second go.My friend and I started by sharing a mezzo platter, delicious. nice mix of flavours and textures. Then we both had the ravioli, an unfortunate unavoidable downside to food prepared from scratch is that there can only be one veggie option offered, and one option of most meats. This is more than compensated for by the sheer quality of the offerings. Lemon sponge cake for me, and coffee ice cream for my friend followed, both of which were prefect. We didn't book in advance which meant we had the only available table next to the Trotton fete committee jamboree, with lots of loud voices and people squeezing past. This isn't a criticism of the pub in the least, business is business, but next time we will book and ask for the table by the door if there is a big party booked in. I would think mid week would be quieter rather than a Saturday. Attentive staff without being too intrusive. Fabulous food. very reasonable price at seventy pounds with drink for three courses, for a meal cooked while you wait and not microwaved. One of my places of choice on the rare occasions I eat out. Don't miss it.Dear Bellerophon c,I can't thank you enough for trying us out again, and writing a second review to note your altered opinion. We are lucky to have lovely customers who leave great reviews - but, of course, we have the occasional poor review. I am really humbled that you apologised, and can only assume that we didn't explain the menu (or other things) properly to you on your previous visit. Thanks for coming back! I am delighted that you had a lovely time, and enjoyed your meal. That evening was more chaotic than normal, partly due to the fete 'after-party', so I am grateful that you were able to be understanding, and had a lovely meal despite the 'mayhem'. As you rightly state, we are normally a little quieter and have less moving around the restaurant. Hope to see you again.Best wishes,Thais

I would consider myself âa regularâ, and am never disappointed. The menu on this visit was particularly good, with lots of interesting salads (as well as the old favourites) which is what you want in spring/summer. Visiting earlier in the week meant it wasnât too busy, and the service and food were excellent.

The Deers Hut is a quintessential English pub with excellent dining, situated in the heart of the countryside at Griggs Green, yet easily accessible from the A3 south of Liphook. Originally built as a Queen Anne Hunting Lodge in the 1600's, this delightfu

All three of us eating said our main courses and desserts were superb. Service was attentive, friendly, fast and faultless. We have been here a number of times before, but only sitting outside in the summer, so we already knew that the food was consistently good but today noticed the atmosphere inside, interior design and table settings were so nice. Even our guest commented on what a lovely place it was. Highly recommended and worthy of the praise they recieve.

Visited the pub on a cold wet August Sunday, hoping for a warm cosy pub.........how wrong could we be! The pub was cold, dismal and souless. However, the bar staff seemed very pleasant. Sadly, the lunch was very disappointing. I had roast pork, not a nice taste, tasted liked it it had been cooked in old oil. It was dry and felt it may had been cooked a lot earlier and then heated up. The roast potatoes were bland and not very roasted, the veg was ok. My friend had fish and chips which was apparently ok but the white fish was grey. We are local but won't be returning.....an expensive mistake.

First visit for a few months. Friendly and efficient service with very good food. The batter on the fish literally melted in the mouth and the Gelato for the desert was excellent.So what went wrong to spoil this great experience? I asked for the bill and when it came, I paid in cash and was expecting nearly £4:00 back in change. At no time did I say to anyone to "keep the change" and you can imagine my dismay (and that of the staff) that when I went to find out what had happened, that I found my change had been put in the "Tip" pot already. It was given back much to the mutual embarrassment to us all. I would have given a tip, but the presumptuous nature of this transaction did annoy me so much at the time, so I didn't.In hindsight there may have been some kind of misunderstanding at the time the bill was paid, but I don't know how that could have been to be honest. I never said "Keep the change" or even intimated it.This could put me off The Temple, but it won't. There is too much good going for the pub/restaurant, but a clear policy about tipping needs to be put into place please.Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are glad you enjoyed your meal with us and apologize about the misunderstanding at the end of the evening. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

I have been here before. About 50 years ago when I was a single young soldier. I have tried a few times since to find it again but never could. I was beginning to think it was like the Magic Toyshop except it sold the best ploughman's lunch ever. Massive slab of cheese, equally large slab of butter and excellent ham with great bread. I was reminiscing about this when my wife said. "I know how to get there." And so she did. It's still a great place. This time round I had the cottage pie which was unbelievably good. Not cheap but good value. Looking a other people's plates it seems that the portions are still generous. The pub itself is a magnificent find. Looked to me as if it hadn't changed in 50 years and probably longer. It's snug and friendly and tucked away in the countryside. I would heartily recommend it to anyone. It's also dog friendly, not that I have a dog. But if I did I would take it there in a flash.

I must stress that the rating refers to our particular experience on 22nd August, as a visit last year merited five stars.We planned to lunch at this pub as it is situated midway between two elevated landmarks on the Hanger Way . Having parked near the pub in the morning and walked the 5 miles to Shoulder of Mutton Hill and back, we planned to walk a similar distance to Noer Hill and back in the afternoon after lunch . However, despite arriving at the pub just after 1 o'clock, we were informed that, unless we had reserved a table, we could have no food. This of course, entirely ruined the planned afternoon walk as, by the time we had driven somewhere else to eat, it was too late to walk to Noer Hill. We have never experienced before the need to book to eat at a pub for a mid-week lunch, and were most surprised on this occasion as, although the pub was busy, we had found a table without any problem. As we imagine this pub is popular with walkers of the Hanger Way, we would urge booking to ensure that more than a bag of crisps is on offer after a strenuous morning's hike.Good afternoon to you and thank you for your review. The Hawkley Inn continues to enjoy the most amazing success and has been exceptionally busy during the Summer holiday period and we have found ourselves in the enviable position of having to, on rare occasions, where customers don't reserve a table beforehand, of not being able to offer them service. This does not offer people such as yourself any comfort of course, and so we would always suggest calling before planning your day, just to check we can accommodate you; and can only apologise that our popularity has resulted in your disappointment. We do hope to see you again, and would strongly recommend a call to one of our fabulous staff who will be delighted to assist you. Kindest regards
