Best Gastro Pubs in Alresford

I can honestly say this was the most enjoyable meal I have had for a long time. A regular foodie to Michelin restaurants throughout the world which I say not to show off but to put in perspective. The food itself was exceptional, beautifully presented with all the grandeur of the fancy chefs but somehow making it a meal. When did you last have such superb pig’s trotters. We loved it. I could go into all the pompous descriptions but it is easier to say just go, you cannot be disappointed. That being said don’t do it too soon because I’m aiming to return to have other items that caught my attention and would hate to think I couldn’t get in. The lady, and I’m so cross I didn’t get her name, that looked after us was wonderful. Efficient, professional but mostly delightful. We honestly felt cared for. We loved the ambiance too. Somehow discreet, very comfortable and peacefully quiet. Downside? We ordered three puddings between the two of us (don’t judge us, it’s hard to choose) and they are such large portions we couldn’t finish them. My street cred as dessert king in tatters. Loved it

We ate at The Malthouse on Sunday 9th March 2025 and had the small plate Roast Beef and the Triple Roast and both were great. We also shared the Chocolate Brownie with some Sorbet and again both were great. Generous portions and great value for money. It was so nice to see Marie back, she will be a great asset to your business as she is so welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely be back.

Lovely Pie week offer . Pies were both very tasty with a good selection of vegetables and tasty gravy too. Very friendly welcome and great service .

Great Sunday roast, well cooked and full of flavour.

Sunday lunch is always excellent, service great too
