"On 11 September we made our booking for 14th at 7PM: we could have been advised that the kitchen closed at 8PM but weren't. On 14th, the first couple arrived, found our allocated table and ordered their drinks at the bar: they could have been advised that the kitchen closed at 8PM but weren't. A few minutes, the second couple arrived, usual greetings to first couple, then ordered their drinks at the bar: they could have been advised that the kitchen closed at 8PM but weren't. Looked at the menu and decided on our choices and went to the bar to order: again not advised that the kitchen closed at 8PM. Even when our meals were served, we were not told about the imminent closure of the kitchen. Whilst admitting that the meals were all enjoyable, the evening was totally spoiled when we went to the bar, at 8:20PM, to order our desserts to then be informed that them kitchen was closed. The only notice to be seen was one on the hotel reception desk which stated that the kitchen was closed from 1600 to 1700 hours. Absolutely nothing else and no advise from staff to say that the kitchen also closed at 8PM. We paid our bill and left having had what should have been a very enjoyable evening totally spoiled. We will not be going back."

We took a family room (no. 10) and it was spacious for the 3 of us. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had several meals in the pub restaurant and it was good pub food at a very reasonable price. We would definitely return. View menu

Just parked in the carpark and ised the charger for my electric car. Paid £15 for 1/2 a charge which sone would say is very expensive. Now received an additional £80 fine for being parked for 40 mins. Why put an electric charger in your car park and then rip people off, we supposed to be supporting green cars!

Stayed for 3 nights here in June. Room was spacious and clean, beds extremely comfortable, bathroom spotless and towels clean. Staff were polite and helpful. Breakfast was reasonably priced and tasty. Bar area however was a little grubby and could do with some TLC. Overall a pleasant stay and would probably return.

Had an enjoyable evening. Lovely atmosphere and welcoming staff. Meals were a good size and value for money. The jerk chicken and Cajun seasoned salmon were very fiery so be warned. Perhaps a little less seasoning would make them a bit more enjoyable. In addition to these dishes we had scampi, fish and chips and sirloin steak which were great

This could be a really nice pub but unfortunately it has been ruined by the so called “company policy” to litter every wall with a TV which is constantly on. If I wanted to watch Tv I can watch at home. If I want to watch a match with my mates I would go to either The Raven or The Old White Hart. With the population of Hook having grown in the last few years this pub has the potential to turn itself into a far better place, serving the families of Hook, with a more traditional pub, decent food, a range of beers (only ever serve one that seems to be available) and with no TV IN YOUR FACE

"Our first visit. We cannot praise thank The Wellie highly enough. What a find! Peacefully rural on a quiet road to the south of Baughurst. A classic, pretty country pub, now converted to an excellent restaurant, with three rooms. What strikes you first is how immaculate The Wellie is, inside and out. The large garden is a delight. Masses of dahlias and all manner of bushes and plants. Birds, birds and more birds. Do check out the vegetable garden beyond the rear car park. You then walk inside to the warmest of relaxed welcomes from the owners, Simon and Jason, and manager, Sheila, and their lovely young helpers. Nothing is too much trouble. The first thing you’ll spot is the array of fruit, veg salad for sale by the pub bar – the Wellie Deli. Along with home made jams, chutneys, quiches, etc. I then spotted the two hand pumps! Longdog Golden Poacher Basingstoke Pride. The seating inside is for diners every session is a sell out! But I was very happy to sup several excellent pints of well kept draught Basingstoke Pride in the garden – until I discovered their Negronis! Truly the best this side of Kwant (Piccadilly). We’d opted for the room in the pub: the Apartment. Two rooms on the first floor, knocked through. Enormous comfy bed, large rainfall shower, sofa, mini bar – two TVs! Free milk homemade shortbread. One of the discoveries we made here is the fabulous tea they serve from Prince Sons. As you can tell by now, we were very happy with our first stay at The Wellie… and then we went down for dinner! A truly exceptional menu from Jason’s kitchen, which changes each evening. Highlights were the scallops wrapped in pancetta, the pollack, the lamb pot pie, the twice baked cheese souffle, the NY cheesecake, the rhubarb ice cream, the treacle tart... All so fresh, tasty, and mainly from their garden. What we loved most was it was relaxed but fine dining without the tiny portions. The Full English breakfast the next morning was equally tasty. All in all, we did not want to go home! Thank you Simon, Jason Sheila. We will be back, soon."
