Our top chef creates some of Hampshire's finest food in The Castle's kitchen - with 'home cooked' and 'locally sourced' our two key mantras. The portions are generous and the food filling - try delicious braised lamb shoulder or beef and ale pie if you're really hungry, or go for a lighter option like the fresh fish and crab.


One of the highlights of the week comes early - courtesy of Monday's Curry Night. Four fabulous curries, plus Fuller's finest ales make a great way to kickstart the week.
