The Hampshire Court - Basingstoke

The menu was not very interesting, but the food was nice.

Bays a table at 6:00 as there is nothing else, otherwise until 9:00. Imagine our surprise when we arrived to find just another table occupied. There was no music and since we were the only two tables that sit for our first hour, it was a little two quietly needed a little more atmosphere. Restaurant was very smart and clean, young waiting staff very polite and happy. We were regularly checked during our meal. Adequate selection options. Starter of focaccia excellent. Burger Mains good and large, although beef burgers were cooked on the outside and under the inner taste was nice. Chocolate tart and sticky toffe pudding both good. Chocolate tea appeared without ice cream, although listed on the menu, but when it was forwarded to the staff, this was bought very quickly. Wine list extensive and good value. Overall, a decent meal with beautiful staff needed only more atmosphere.

The service ar the restaurant started in order, but instead of our order of dessert we waited in over 20 minutes before the decision not to disturb and left. Prepaid) Manager arranged that Dessert is delivered to our room. Eat these 40 minutes later than we wanted. But at least we finally have Shame as experience should have been and could have been better

Worse than yesterday.!!! Wait an hour for our starter. The main course was Apalling and DANGEROUS. The shrimps on my wife's fish cake were not cooked and had to be returned. The only alternative was a fish finger sandwich, with cheap fish fingers, FOR DINNER!!! The Mange Tou on both plates were inedible and most of my pig bell was unleashed because it was too hard. We received our pudding TWO HOURS AFTER SITTING DOWN. We were not told before our arrival that the restaurant was closed and that there was only a limited bar menu in the small meeting room, with much of it not available. Both dinners were terrible DIES is not what we hope for I, someone will contact me if these two reviews are reasonable at all.

Restaurant not open and used a small meeting room with no ambiance Restaurant closed and we were in a small meeting room with no ambience. Very limited menu Food very slow to arrive though we were the only ones in there Wine slow to arrive and was warm and undrinkable Staff , especially manager, very obliging .
