The fresh air of the forest always sets tummies a-rumbling and that's why Chef has created menus full of hearty plates of mouth-watering food with refined, elegant flavours made from Hampshire's finest ingredients.

With small bites for those times when you're just a bit peckish, to plates laden high to satisfy even the most hungry members of your party, and perfectly balanced sweet treats for that secret extra space we all save for pudding, the only difficult part is choosing just one dish to devour!

Originally a coaching inn, the bar has been the heart of The Bell Inn since 1782. A welcome place of rest for weary travellers, both two legged and four, for over 200 hundred years, you will immediately feel at home amongst the laughter, warm fire and comfy sofas.

Make sure you try one of the carefully selected local draught ales, or perhaps you'd prefer one of the area's stunning craft gins or a glass of wine from our neighbour's vineyard. Whatever your favourite tipple, pull up a stool and soak up the atmosphere in one of the New Forest's oldest watering holes.
