A pub worth the drive to get to! The views alone from the beer garden are reason enough to visit, it's like sitting in the countryside. The service was excellent and efficient, and the waitress even brought a dog bowl and water to our outdoor picnic table for us! There's a wide range of food, lots of local ales and of course lots of cricket memorabilia as you'd expect from a pub that is home of 'the cradle of cricket'. The beer garden is small and has pebbles rather than grass, but it's a small price to pay for the views!

Went after visiting a friend with my daughter. I had duck leg with a bean, sausage and bacon stew and kale. OMG, it was amazing, a huge portion, gave me plastic take out box, meal enough for brunch the next day. Delicious. My daughter had gnocchi with a blue cheese and garlic sauce, also delicious. Then buffalo ice-cream and chocolate brownie. Wanted the buffalo pudding...hence the 'doggy bag'Been going to this pub/restaurant for decades, literally, since the late 60s. Consistently good, always a good ambiance, should go more often.

Typical British country pub. Set within the beautiful Hampshire countryside. The pub itself has a really comfortable feel to it.The food menu has good choices, I can personally recommend the pork chop it was delicious, followed by white chocolate cheesecake.A good choice of ales,lagers, and wine. The service was second to none, friendly and enthusiastic. If you are out for drive in the country, I suggest you seek out this pub. Highly recommended.

There's a lot of well-known history attached to this pub - oldest cricket pitch in England etc - which can allow for over-expectation and under-delivery, but the Bat and Ball doesn't disappoint and lives up to its reputation and excellent reviews.Very friendly and professionally run, with a good menu and good, traditional food. Characterful and capacious, but do book at busy times.

Saturday lunch in this iconic and atmospheric pub. Great venue and very friendly landlord.The menu read fine but unfortunately the actual food didn't inspire and we felt was overpriced. Lack of vegetables, chicken risotto was served as chicken with separate rice. A shame really and put us off Fullers pubs for food.

A large and pleasant pub that serves excellent food. Beer and cider is well kept, there are large gardens and stunning views. Dog friendly throughout.The belly pork was excellent, as was the trout salad, fish and chips and beef and ale pie. The dark chocolate torte was also superb as well as the posset and buffalo ice cream.

They had a buttermilk fried rabbit burger on the specials board when I visited and it was perfect. Rabbit burgers should be a more common thing, in my opinion. You can't really tell from the photo, but it was much thicker than your average beef burger. Add the views from the garden and this pub is perfect. Lovely pint of Frontier on tap too. 10/10 for this place.

Right I will start by saying I'm not a big fan of Fullers, although the bottled ESB was very good.However the pub and staff exceeded my expectations by being absolutely first class. On top of this, both the food and wine were of a high standard. The chap who looked after us was a masterclass in how to get things right. Never over friendly but exceptional attentive and knowledgeable.I would recommend if you are looking for a lovely setting, the home of cricket no less, and an enjoyable meal.
