The Olive Tree - Carta

Freshly prepared delectable dishes. Enjoyed a lovely evening in the garden under the warm sunshine. Spacious seating allowed for a pleasant dining experience with friends. Highly recommend.

Went in this lovely pub for coffee and cake, great cake, and a great price. And a well done to the bar staff dealing extremely well with a very rude bloke who I was stood next to at the bar.

Lovely lunch, we visited on a Friday, busy but didn't have to wait long for food or service. Waitress was friendly. Flatbreads tasted lovely, very filling! The atmosphere is nice, cosy. Really enjoyed our visit. Ver carta

It a nice place quite rustic and cozy we liked the open fire. But the food is very overpriced for what it is. Had the Ho sin Duck and the portion was tiny for nearly £16. My wife had a burger which was average at best.

The staff at this restaurant had a negative attitude and the service was extremely slow. I had not checked the reviews on TripAdvisor before coming, only relying on the Google reviews which were rated higher despite having fewer reviews. If I had seen the TripAdvisor rating beforehand, I would not have chosen to dine here as they were all accurate.

After reading the reviews, I was nervous about eating at The Olive Tree. We we there on a Tuesday evening and were only one of 2 tables eating so it was a quiet night but there was still a nice atmosphere. The bar seems limited as there were no non alcoholic gins available which was a disappointment. I have to say though that the food was great. We all enjoyed our mains and desserts and would go again. It does seem that it's a bit hit and miss, but our experience was good so don't let all the negativity sway you. Ver carta

I went here today for lunch following a wander around Romsey. It was 12.00 (noon) and firstly I could not have a large glass of wine as they did not have a measure for it and secondly was told that the kitchen was very busy due a large number of bookings. Following a check with the kitchen, it was okay to order immediately I was on my own so this was not going to be a large order! The food was good, except far too much onion in the salad, and I was enjoying a nice relaxing lunch until 3 young lads came in and sat near me. Their language was not great with quite a few swear words and one of them was vaping which I didn't think was allowed in pubs/restaurants.

First impressions were great, lovely table and decor, however the first impressions unfortunately, were short lived. We waited over 20 minutes for our drink order, had to prompt to then order our food (45 minutes after we sat down) then go to the bar and order our own drinks, and then wait another 45 minutes for our food. The roast dinners weren’t the greatest either, roast potatoes were rock hard and burnt Yorkshire puddings not expecting the world but when you’ve waited 45 minutes and paying nearly £20 per dinner it was disappointing. My son’s chicken goujons surprisingly looked better! We were never asked how the food was, never apologised for the delay and a complete lack of cleanliness...

Well we booked for our anaversary, 5 days before and phoned again to confirm our booking, wich was OK on arrival we told we would have to wait while a table was made ready, so we ordered drinks and was told there was a nice log fire in rhe lounge, we walked over with our drinks and found the local swillers hugged togeather round the fire wich was really a small gas fire, the place was very chilly, we were told our table was ready, it was at the back of the dining room it was empty of diners , I thought OH DEAR ,as we sat down we were told that 4 items from the mains section were not available, wich included the STEAK, DUCK , SALMON AND SOMETHING ELSE, wich left us FISH AND CHIPS SOME MORROCA...
