Or the Snake Catcher in Brock

The Happy Cheese (crap name) at Ashurst is ok for pub grub, though there's a great pub on the Lyndhurst - Brockenhurst road which has rear access from the forest, buggered if I can remember the name though. Bit pricey, but lovely food.

Had a lovely meal in the Elm Tree near Ringwood a few weeks ago. Not too pricey and had good beer.

Me and the gang have boycotted the Montagu Arms ever since I saw a group asked to leave just because one of them asked why there was no cider available.

The pub on the Lyndhurst-Brockenhurst road is the Crown Stirrup.

Personal faves are the New Forest Inn at Emery Down near Lyndhurst and the Hare and Hounds at Sway. Also maybe try the Jolly Sailor down at Ashlet Creek near Fawley. I've no experience of the food beyond plates of chips (which have been very good) but the staff have been very welcoming and you're on the waterfront with scope for riding or walking afterwards.

The Mayflower in Lymington used to be good for grub. Nice beer garden as well.

Also there was a pub called something like the Oak or Royal Oak round about Fritham(?) that did nice grub and was extremely New Forest-y - used to take folk there to give them an idea of the classic New Forest pub straight from central casting.

Mind you all these recollections are a good five years out of date so take 'em with a pinch of salt.

Any more offers ?
(I live round here but don't know many good places to eat)

Royal Oak in Fritham is great but no hot food, I think. Nice beers and good riding (even an [u]approved[/u] gravelly road/path ! ๐Ÿ˜ฏ ) from the door

The Red Shoot always used to be pretty good over on the Ringwood side. Has own micro brewery and campsite.
