The Sunday roast was spot on. Beef was cooked just right, and the veg had a nice flavour. Service was quick, which was a bonus. A solid Sunday lunch.

Coffee&#39;s reliably good, probably the best around. It&#39;s a busy local spot, so can be a bit loud for a work call. Got my usual flat white, quick service.

The Big Argyll burger was really good on Monday. Got the beer and burger deal. Sat out on the back patio, it&rsquo;s covered so was nice even with a bit of drizzle. The patty was juicy and cooked just right.

The staff were very thoughtful about my friend&#39;s gluten allergy. They made sure everything was safe, which was much appreciated.

The breakfast deals are a nice touch. I really appreciate how fresh the ingredients taste, especially the eggs and avocado. It makes for a healthy, satisfying start to the day.

service is great. very nice menu with fresh ingredients. love the place. coffee is fab and the young staff there are just great. everything was very good.

Lovely fresh flavours here. The large salad I ordered was a proper meal in itself - crisp greens, ripe tomatoes, and a light, zesty dressing. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients. A nice spot for a healthy lunch.

The chicken katsu burger was a real find. Just the right amount of heat in the sauce, really hit the spot. Great spot to catch a game too.

Stopped by this family-run Italian place on a whim. The pasta special today was a simple carbonara. Tasted just like something you&#39;d get in a nonna&#39;s kitchen. Really hit the spot.

Rowan was very attentive during our son&#39;s birthday dinner. He handled the large group well, kept drinks refilled, and was efficient without being intrusive. Made the evening run smoothly.

Good portions for the price, and a huge menu to choose from. The vibe was just right&mdash;really relaxed and friendly.

Came for the afternoon tea with friends. The little savoury tarts were so good, and the cheesecake that looked like a flower pot was a fun surprise! A really nice spot for a long catch-up.

The Sunday roast was still available at 6pm, which was a nice surprise. The vegetables were really fresh and perfectly cooked.

The fennel salami and Tomme cheese sandwich was a real find. The bread had this perfect, crisp crust that just gave way. For under a fiver, it felt like a little treat. Romsey&#39;s lucky to have this spot.

Popped in before the lunch rush. The eggs benedict on sourdough was spot on. Coffee&#39;s lovely, just wish they did a bigger cup.

Service was lovely, and the ambiance was nice. They gave warm towels between courses and a mint at the end, which were thoughtful touches.

Been coming here for years, and the outdoor seating is a big reason why. When the sun&#39;s out, it&#39;s just a great spot to unwind. The space never feels cramped, even when it&#39;s busy. Always consistent.

Popped in for a late breakfast. The food was fresh and well-prepared. Their iced coffee was spot on&mdash;really hit the mark with a full, rich flavour that paired nicely with the meal. Solid value for what you get.

Perfect for a quick lunch. Burger was juicy, cooked just right. Good choice of sauces too. Got my order in under 10 minutes. Exactly what I needed.

Popped in for lunch, didn&rsquo;t book. The place is tiny, we were lucky to get a table. The chocolate lava cake was the highlight, still warm and gooey inside. Staff were really nice about our toddler making a bit of a mess. Would book next time though.

The doner in the box meal was juicy and freshly sliced, which I really liked. The dips were a nice addition, too.

Came here for a quick lunch. The staff were so welcoming, really made it feel like a friendly local spot. Place is nice and clean too, which is a bonus.

Really enjoyed the food here. The pasta tasted just like what I had in Rome last year. Staff were lovely, didn&#39;t rush us at all. A bit of a wait for the table, but worth it for a proper Italian meal.

The pizza here is solid. Good flavour, well-made. It&#39;s the standout on their Italian menu. Went for a quick business lunch and it hit the spot.

Grilled fish and oysters were very fresh. The seafood overall had good flavour. Service was efficient, and the location is convenient for a business lunch. A bit on the pricier side, but you&#39;re paying for the quality.

A lovely historic pub near the castle. The photos on the walls give it such a nice, lived-in feel. Perfect spot for a post-walk pint.

Had our wedding reception here. The team were really friendly and helpful, made everything run smoothly. All our guests loved the pub&#39;s vibe.
