The Dolphin

Friday  night at the Dolphin is always excellent, and we wanted to see the changes…we weren’t disappointed as our favourite, Bethany, is still there and as excellent as ever , and we got to meet Ben for the first time. The food was really lovely and service brilliant. So lucky to have this at the end of our road !!…..

We had an excellent dinner at the Dolphin this week. Very friendly and welcoming staff, and food was superb. I had the sirloin steak which came seared, but then I finished it the way I wanted on a hot stone at the table. My wife had the feather blade beef which was rich and delicious. The liquid puddings were fun too

Just returned from yet another great meal at the Dolphin at Hursley.
Tried the new menu which this time was good old bangers & mash & my partner had the burger. Followed by a very delicious crème brûlée & also the rhubarb & ginger crumble… delicious…. Loved the new drinks menu which included new cocktails.. I recommend the spiced mojito. 
Well done to all the team for another enjoyable evening.

Great stay, perfect room and great hospitality from the Dolphin team - what more to want ! The dinner was also superb, even though we didn't order till after 20:30, when the kitchen was closed but the chefs team just produced the most delicious meal with tempura prawns and a burger to follow all cooked to perfection. Thank you guys for a great, all round, experience !

5 adults and 2 toddlers could be a recipe for disaster but the Dolphin coped well last Saturday. We had a table of a good size in an area where the children would not be a problem to other diners which in fact, we don’t think they were. 
Bethany our waitress and Ben the manager obviously know that a child that is eating doesn’t get in the way and so they ensured the grandsons’ food was quickly served.
The menu had most of the usual pub food but with a couple of extras. I have never seen faggots on a pub menu before so enjoyed those. Puds, again most of the usual but also a couple of extras. How could I refuse Jam Roly Poly and custard ( plenty of it as well! ) 
Bethany read us completely and joined in with our family fun which was so very nice. Ben made sure we were enjoying ourselves but didn’t keep pestering us.
A pleasure to go somewhere where the staff know how to look after their customers. Well done all.

Booked both flats for my daughters hen do. They are conveniently situated near Winchester. The accommodation had 2 double beds in 1 flat & in other 1 double & 2 singles. Both were clean and welcoming, providing towels & tea coffee making facilities. 
We all congregated in 1 flat after our evening meal in The Dolphin pub for partying! 
A great stay & would recommend

Delicious impromptu family meal out, glad we did. Attentive staff and the food was so tasty. Lovely cosy atmosphere for a Monday night too, thank you to Catherine and Sky, you made our evening even better with your service and conversations. 

We visited The Dolphin last week for dinner and were treated to a great dinner in this warm and friendly pub. We had excellent home-made chicken and tarragon pies (home made by chef Meme) washed down with a very good bottle of the house Merlot.
We will definitely visit again soon.

We went to lunch at the Dolphin and had a very nice time . The staff were very friendly and checked we were happy and didn’t need anything else. The food was excellent, I had the best macaroni cheese and garlic bread and my friend had the hunters chicken which were both lovely. The atmosphere was relaxed and cosy. We will be going again definitely! 

We have been to The Dolphin on many occasion, but not for a quite a few years now, so we decided to go back. It was Saturday 28th Jan. 
We were shown to a table, but it was a rather chilly area of the pub and being a cold day, we asked to be moved and the staff were very obligingly. The young girl who served was lovely and very friendly. 
We ordered to very large Pizzas and they were delicious and yet I struggle with mine, but still very tasty. We both enjoyed our meals.
Friendly, clean and comfy environment and especially the fairy lights. We intend to visit again!!

Great Stay

A treat for the family

Great find

Lovely meal, friendly staff.

Very enjoyable experience with good food

Firstly the staff were incredible
So warm and welcoming 
They were very accommodating, and helped us with all our queries 

We stayed in the June Suite, the accommodation had a double bed and two singles, a TV, radiator, bathroom, and small dining table 
They provided a kettle, mugs, and cups, as well as teas and coffee 
And ginger biscuits ✌️ 
They also provide small showering materials such as showergell  and towels 

The beds were so comfortable 
The sheets were smooth and gentle
The beds themselves were so easy to sleep in, very soft
The pillows again marshy and comfortable 

There were a few things off, just missing bin bags for provided bins, the sink handle is useable but missing it's handle, and the windows don't open and it can get quite warm. We had our door open to the room to let some air in. The WiFi also is having trouble but the manager is actively fixing it. 

The overall stay was incredibly lush, a real treat to stay in. Due to its location and the room structure its very quiet and private. There is plenty of free parking on site. The pub goers were very polite so no chance of noise from them either. 

Would stay again and again ❤

Lush stay

This is the 4th time we have stayed here this year and will be retuning again. The location is perfect only a short distance from Winchester and many other key destinations.A few months back the Dolphin changed owners and the new landlord Ben his assistant Katie and a great team have made many improvements, the rooms have been improved the menu has plenty of choice with lots from local suppliers and the bar atmosphere is very warming.Thanks to the whole team for another great stay.
