Stunning food and beautiful setting. We went on Sunday and had probably the best roast (no one does roast potatoes that well!) we've had to date....and we've tried a lot. We will be back!

We live in Lymington and have eaten in this restaurant a couple of times before. We were looking forward to the ribeye steak and chunky chips as we have had this before and it was delicious, on 30 December we ordered the ribeye. I asked for salad instead of chips only to be told there was no salad and even worse for my husband no chips. We ordered roasted carrots from the very limited sides menu - carrots or cavalero Nero. No sign of any potato’s at this point. The very nice manager came over and said there were potatoes with the steak - some fancy name but essentially cubed potatoes in stock. The steak came and was disappointing - not sure how it had been cooked - it was tender but lacked flavour. To be fair we were given a plate of cavalero Nero and the very strange potatoes which did not go well with the steak. Gavin bring back the chips and salad. Simple but delicious. On the plus side the service was excellent. The front of house staff were efficient, friendly and non intrusive.

We have always loved the high street kitchen from day one but tonight was extra special. I’ve just completed medical treatment and Gavin is aware of my treatment journey. Not only did he and his team make us so welcome he cooked off menu for me at his request so I had what worked for my recovery. The care, love and respect we were shown was exceptional! What other restaurant really cares and treats you this way. Truly we are so lucky to have Gavin, Laura and this gem of a restaurant! If you’re visiting Lymington it’s a must the food is always divine! Bravo to Adam also who is a master chef in the making!

Gavin (the chef) produced the most gorgeous selection of unusual and inventive dishes for our New Year’s Eve celebration dinner. To arrive at the restaurant and have a bespoke vegetarian menu was such a delight. The pace of the dishes arriving was spot on with plenty of time between course to really savour the dining experience. This was definitely my meal of the year. Thank you to our host Laura and Gavin for putting on a truly wonderful gastronomic experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed a fabulous Sunday lunch at Gavin’s Highstreet Kitchen to celebrate my Dad’s birthday. 2 ribs of beef and 2 corn fed chickens were suitably polished off with some paired wines in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. I’d also highly recommend the pear crumble but I ate it before I could take a picture. Couldn’t help myself. I absolutely love this restaurant and we can’t wait to celebrate NYE there this weekend for a 5 course dinner. See you Sunday.

This place is fabulous, food is amazing, great service and pretty courtyard. The husband and wife who run this place are nothing short of amazing.
We had a large gathering last night at the high street kitchen and normally for a large meal you expect a standard meal. Last nights meal went above and beyond, fantastic portion size, food was outstandingly good, local produce, I absolutely couldn’t fault nothing at all. The staff are attentive, atmosphere was friendly, cleanliness was 100%. The only fault I can make is why I had not been sooner! If you want an amazing 5 star meal with friendly staff and a lovely relaxed atmosphere you must go here! Well done guys and thank you

Wow wow wow ? 2nd visit this evening, and even better than the first earlier on in the year. My husband and I had different starters, mains and desserts, and each one was exceptional. Aside from the food the service was faultless, and we we will forever be indebted to Laura for solving our salt dilemma ? I've read a couple of reviews where people have said it's over priced - absolute rubbish, it's not much more then some of the pubs in town, and if that's your attitude then toddle on off a few doors down to Wetherspoons ! Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Went with 4 friends for dinner at 7.30pm on a Friday night. The welcome and knowledge of the menu and wine choices were shared with us and all questions answered without any rush and pure proudness if their business came through. The food was stunning and the chef even came and spoke to us and explained his 17 year old son made the exquisite lemon meringue dessert. We even ordered a 5th dessert for the table the light treacle tart. We enquired about the wine glasses and were promptly given the name and details of where we could purchase them. Also because we loved the complimentary bread and we given a loaf to take home. We cannot recommend this restaurant enough clearly passionate about the whole end to end experience and what a joy to be able to experience their passion. We will be back thank you team x

My meal was fabulous - unfortunately my wife was unwell - nothing to do with the restaurant. These lovely, lovely people could not have done anything more to help us. The head chef took us back to our hotel as we couldn't get a taxi for over an hour.Recommend the Highstreet Kitchen - you can bet your life I do. 5 stars in every department.Thank you so much XX
All round enjoyable - Happy Mothers Day.
