second visit in a month and on both occasions the food was excellent, the service very good and the whole experience a good one. I have no problem with the prices charged when the food is this good. I had the seafood sharing platter and it was delicious with lots of variety.

Stopped here on the way to Pennington after hearing the food here was exceptionally good. And IT IS!!!! The Manager Darren was the perfect host - welcoming, friendly, smiling and helpful as were his team -a credit to you. The food was delicious and perfectly presented. I had the rump of lamb cooked med/rare with carrot and cumin puree (mind blowing), tender stem broccoli cooked just right with a fruity redcurrant and mint gravy. It was absolutely spot on. My partner had the rich Beef Bourguignon with horseradish dumplings, fresh seasonal veg and homemade crusty bread. Sumptuous was his description.We will definitely be visiting the Royal Oak at Downton again in the very near future

Absolutely lovely. We booked last minute as we were visiting the area, the response was very prompt. The pub is very comfortable and welcoming. The staff were friendly and the food was fantastic. We had the Sunday lunch, with some dessert and coffees. The menu looked great for other days too.

Very nice local place, good food and very good desserts, house wine was pretty good too. Service was excellent. Stopped by for lunch on Sunday afternoon and were not dissapointed. Country style food with a bit of chic. They do have big dedicated parking but it is at the back of the restaurant so you might fly by. Really good and big outside area that is enjoyable at warmer days. So we will have to come back to this place when it will get warmer. Very much recommend, please stop by and have a great meal here :)

Lovely, quaint, quintessential country pub! Popped here for a bite to eat during lunchtime whilst visiting the New Forest. The pub has a proper country pub feel to it which I feel is lacking these days. Staff were very helpful and attentive. We ordered a sharing platter and a light lunch, with dessert. The food was very good and very plentiful, so much so we could not finish it all. Reasonably priced and would visit again if down in the New Forest.
