I checked out the meals people were having and they looked very tempting, typical pub dishes, like burgers and fish and chips etc. I will give them a try next time I'm there :-) This is the only pub in the Southampton airport, very small airport so keep it in mind.

This is one of the very few eateries available in this airport. Simply walk up to the…read morebartender/host at the bar, order your food, pick your seat. It's a modern, casual place with ample comfortable seating. Ricardo (super awesome human being) took our orders and helped me select mine. He recommended the Herby Chicken and Steak Pie. I went with Steak Pie. My friend ordered a burger with chips. Her food came and about an hour later, I was still waiting. The people who sat down about 30 minutes after me got an apology on the delay of their food (one of the guys ordered the same thing as me) and got their food before me. I had to flag the server (and later manager) down to inquire about my food, which I received a vague answer initially about it being redone and the pie that the man next to me received was indeed his. I honestly don't care who's name is on the pie, I just wanted my food, especially since I ordered way before he did. The manager apologized and dealt with my concern calmly. He made sure my food was delivered personally shortly. Ricardo also followed up and apologized for the situation. Abeit the whole mix up, the Steak Pie was sublime. The upper crust was a smidge overdone for my liking, but the filling was mighty tasty. Even the veggies and mashed potato was tasty all the way through. Wished I had 2 bellies, so I could squeeze every morsel in. Despite the situation, I thoroughly enjoyed my food, Ricardo was amazing, and the manager dealt with the situation cordially--I'd come back.

In retrospect, I think I got the seared tuna starter by mistake but either way it wasn't great. Problem is the tuna was over cooked, with tuna that's the difference between success and failure. My main was the veal parmigiana, it was nice but not extraordinary. Maybe my expectations were too high but found it not as strong as some of its Oxford Street neighbors.

Wow the fish and chips was super flaky. My wife ordered it and I had to steal some. I had the…read moreburger. Not the traditional hamburger we have in the states. More of a chopped beef. Excellent is the best way to describe it. Open a location in Miami Beach please!

Whether it's food and drink or just drink you're after this place is great for both, just don't forget to bring friends ;-) I've been here a few times now so I'm slowly working through the menu and it's all been delicious so far, pizza goes down especially well. Also worth mentioning the lovely fresh fruit and crepes you can have for dessert, very very good.

The meat was nice but not on the bone and a little too much sauce. The true highlight was an order of pork scratching we shared. They were addictive, really tasty.

The menu is as you'd expect for a steakhouse -- lots of cuts of meat and both small plates and large orders. If you are looking for a spread of good appetizers, solid desserts, or a platter of 5 kilos of meat for the table the menu will not disappoint. We found the appetizers were great and the main dishes, especially the specials, were excellent. Beer is cold and fresh, service is great, and the ambience is casual and fun.
