The Greenwood Tree
65 High St, LyndhurstA really lovely cafe in Lyndhurst. We stopped there around 4pm on a Monday afternoon, it was quiet but very welcoming and the staff are very friendly. We did wait a long time for our drinks considering it was so quiet but they apologised.
Would recommend it. I had the green smoothie which was very good.

The Royal Oak
The Royal Oak, Fritham, LyndhurstSo impressed & refreshing to be served by the young lady behind the bar who actually knew about the real ales, offering the opportunity to taste what was on offer. As ever we all ate a gorgeous ploughman’s, my favourite is the bacon quiche totally yummy ?

New Forest Inn Lyndhurst
2 Boult Bee Cottages, Emery Down, LyndhurstRight in the route of some incredible forest walks.
Massive garden out the back. Charming decor inside. Comfortable chairs and tables and the rooms are well laid out. Extremely dog friendly (dog biscuits on the bar, offered to fill our dog bowl). Beer is cold and clearly lines are well maintained. Food was great and portions filled us (we’re 2 people in our 30’s with big appetites that had just been out for a 4 hour hike).
To the person who complained about the price of the food a few reviews down, I don’t know what you were smoking or what backstreet cafes you’ve been eating in recently but the value for money was absolutely spot on and you should bang another star on that review.
Now to the staff. Absoultely unreal. Nothing was a bother or too much trouble. Friendly, attentive and professional without being intrusive. Literally perfect pub service.
Can’t wait for come back (and we’ve not even left yet)

La Pergola Restaurant
Southampton Rd, LyndhurstDelicious authentic flavours, especially the cannelloni and arrabiata!
I would recommend the garlic mushrooms starter as well!
The restaurant was busy, so definitely book a table if you're going on the weekend especially.
The tiramisu was nice, but I regret not trying the strawberry cheesecake that looked delicious and has been highly recommended.
The bill came to £90 (with service charge) for two starters, two mains a dessert and 2 drinks. So it was pricey, but I think that's reflected in the fresh ingredients and generous portions sizes.

Dolce Vita Italian Restaurant
2 Romsey Rd, LyndhurstStaying in Lyndhurst for our 55th wedding anniversary and we really wanted an Italian meal to celebrate on the night. Well Dolce Avita could not have impressed us more, they were welcoming and it had a wonderful atmosphere about the place. The meal was exquisite, a true Italian meal which took us back to many happy meals in the past we have had in Italy. The staff could not have looked after us any better, although they didn't know we were there for a special celebration.
Without a doubt, whenever we go back to Lyndhurst, or surrounding area we will without a doubt return.
Thank you for making our evening so very special. ♥️

Renoufs Cheese and Wine Bar
23 High St, LyndhurstShould have been a 4 star review but let down by taking 80 to get the food after arriving at the restaurant. However the food was amazing, such a delicious variety of cheeses and meats. We had a sharing board for 6 shared between 7 and there was plenty to go round. Asked for extra crackers and they were very accomodating for one of our party who needed gluten free. Wines were great too

Hartnett Holder & Co
Beaulieu Rd, LyndhurstWe came here for the food, but in reality it was more of an all-inclusive experience. We spent the afternoon here, enjoying the good food and vibes. The focaccia starter was oily, but overall tasted great with the mushroom gratin. We tried the vegetarian à la carte menu because the set menu was mixed veg and non-veg items.
Overall, we enjoyed the food, especially the veg hot pot, aubergines and vegetable pasta.
Highly recommended, bit expensive but lovely to go for a special occasion.

Green Dragon
Canterton Ln, Brook, HampshireStopped off for a quick lunch. The staff are amazing and friendly. Would definitely recommend table 52 as the place to sit (all other tables are just as wonderful) but table 52 is somewhere special.
I'd like to say a massive thank you to all the team especially Alfie during the difficulties of another party being disgustingly rude.
These guys maintained calm and professional.
We're coming again just to buy them shots. ?
Thank you for a lovely afternoon X
Edit.....
Did ask the bar staff for the quicky and was informed the 'Quiche' is cheese and onion.
Slightly disappointed but had a lovely time nonetheless.

INDIAN FUSION LYNDHURST
72 High St, LyndhurstThis place is an absolute gem - my favourite Indian restaurant in the area
The service was brilliant, couldn't ask for friendlier staff
The food is divine, the salmon tikka is one of the best things I have ever eaten. The mushroom rice is the best I have had, and I have had many! For mains, definitely try one of the chefs recommendations, very authentic and nice amount of heat!
Highly recommend this place to anyone, you won't be disappointed!

The Mailmans Arms
71 High St, LyndhurstWe stopped at this pub for a quick drink while out walking. The food going to other customers looked amazing so we decided to give it a try thr following day... that day was today and OMG what a meal. We all agreed, there was 4 of us, we were all impressed with our meals, the portion sizes are large, the taste and presentation was just amazing. The price well worth it. Definitely worth a try. We had fish and chips and chicken burger..... not one of us finished our meal but not one of complained about a single thing.
Thank you to The staff at the Mailman but especially TO THE CHEF amazing, this pub has an amazing chef in you..... I think you deserve a pay rise, you are well worth it.....

Afternoon Tea at Forest Lodge Hotel
Pikes Hill, Romsey Rd, LyndhurstWe had a lovely afternoon tea at Forest Lodge. Service was exceptional, and the food was great, especially the scones. We were offered more tea a couple times, and they did everything to cater for our dietary preferences despite not being warned of them beforehand. The hotel and restaurant are quite smart too. Would recommend if in the area.

Sweet Chillies
33 High St, LyndhurstWe had only planned on popping in to Lyndhurst for a few minutes. However, we found this lovely shop. We were only wanting a teacoffee but once we saw the lovely cakes on offer we had to indulge. I am very disappointed that we do not live closer to Lyndhurst because we would certainly make this a weekly place to have a snack. The coffee was excellent. Served hot with a lovely biscuit on the side. My husband had a toasted tea cake and declared it to be the best he had eaten in years. I had a slice of their lovely Dorset apple cake. It was beyond good. I was extremely impressed. The gentleman who served us was very friendly and could not have done more for us. We would go out of our way to make sure we come here again.
