After visiting the beautiful Titchfield Abbey we were ready for lunch. This was just a one minute…read moredrive down the road. Plenty of parking for customers (even some spots under the trees in the shade). First things first: Food was pretty average and I'd give three stars. But location and atmosphere are great and relaxing. That deserves an extra star. It's really an old mill right at a small river. The pub is beautiful inside as well and has a charming outside area to have lunch and dinner. Since it was a hot and sunny day we took a table outside. Our Bulldog was welcome as well. Ordered fried shrimp, shrimp & scallops and Fish'n'Chips. Since I was driving I had a coke instead of a beer. Fried shrimps were ok. Can't (almost) go wrong with fried food. The cooked shrimp and scallops were quite very good, nice herbal sauce. Fish'n'Chips were fine. Hot and crispy. Staff was friendly. Ordering by app was easy and prices fair. Food was all fine. But just nothing really different or special. Apart from the scallops/shrimp maybe. But still: An enjoyable lunch in a great setting.

EUGH! Probably the worst fish and chips I've had in a long, long time! Truly terrible. Over…read morecooked, dry shrivelled-up medium sized piece of Pollack concreted in heavy, over-done greasy batter. Not nice. This was the cheaper (£8.95) of the two fish options on the menu. I would go back and try the other one, in case they just had an off night. But really, there is no excuse for this! Friends had Hunters Chicken and Pork Belly, which they said was ok, but also looked over cooked to me. However, that being said; this was a busy warm, cosy, rambling pub with both Doom Bar and Hobgoblin on tap - two of my favourite beers atm.

Based on one meal, and a meager one at that, I can't plump to large for Villa Romana…read more I ate the Gnocchi al Arrabiata, and it was disappointing, to say the least. The tomato sauce was very sweet, and with the peppers mixed in, it created a taste that was not the most exciting. The gnocchi itself was a little on the mushy side. Perhaps the staff were just too distracted that day by the world cup opener that Italy were about to play. The mixed salad was not bad. The house red wine was quite nice. The strangest part were the comlimentary olives brought out before the meal. I think they must use the same super-sweet tomato sauce on the olives, but unfortunately, for me, it just made them taste like baked beans. That's not to say you shouldn't try it yourself. You just can't sum up an Italian restaurant from one serving of gnocchi and a bad bowl of olives-a-la-baked-beans, can you? As for charm, this place oozes charm like the Gulf of Mexico oozes oil these days...only in a good way. The staff were universally, pleasant and helpful. And what more can you have for atmosphere in an Italian restaurant than a bunch of guys shouting at each other in Italian? The decore, the building, the architecture all bring it together into a lovely experience. I will try Villa Romana again, most likely. There was enough possibility to allow them a second chance. But I won't be having the Arrabiata.

Beautiful evening and atmosphere! Very lovely staff, although busy still great customer service!…read moreFood was amazing and cooked just right! I had chicken with ham and tomato sauce with noodles, it was beautiful! Only thing that was quite irritating was the lighting is quite dark downstairs, but it kind of adds to the atmosphere! Will definitely be visiting there again!
