The Terrace - Carta

The Michelin starred Terrace restaurant was the main reason for booking a nights stay at the Montague Arms Hotel.

What a lovely place! I went there for lunch today and all the food, without exception, was deliciously exquisite.

Wonderful lunch thank you! We were recommended The Terrace by a passerby on our morning walk in the New Forest around Brockenhurst and it didn’t disappoint. Thank you so much. Ver carta

Food was really good. Service not what you would expect from a fine dining restaurant. Quite a shame as it was our anniversary and we travelled quite far. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner

Couldn’t ever get through to anyone to book a function space, and no one called back despite leaving multiple messages, only called back to say now they’re fully booked on all the requested dates. Didn’t appreciate the service

The restaurant at this hotel is pleasant overall, with good service from the wait staff and delicious food. The wine list is good, but the bar/cocktail options are limited - if it's not on the list, they can't make it. However, our experience was soured by a grumpy host/manager who made us feel unwelcome upon arrival. Our main dishes didn't arrive together, so by the time we chased down the missing meal, everyone else's food was cold. And to top it off, there was carpet in the toilets, even inside the cubicles.

Do not even bother to go here. I had a table booked since May this year for a meal in September, as soon as we walked through the front we waited a while for someone to even greet us to then be told before we even entered the restaurant that they are short staffed and service will be slow as there is only one chef in the kitchen, the waiter then just pointed to our table and said it’s in the middle over there, obviously this is not what you expect for this type of restaurant. We then sat down and another waiter came over to us and said the same thing about being short staffed and that we will have to wait a while for food, when you’re expecting to pay £400+ for a meal this is not the service...

I used to work here 10 years ago, and it was disheartening to witness the significant decline in food quality and service. The news of their lost Michelin star piqued my curiosity, prompting me to investigate the reasons behind this downfall. Unfortunately, the person in charge of the service exhibited open rudeness towards us, setting an unpleasant tone for the evening. Our disappointment continued as we were served burnt and inedible bread, which immediately dampened our expectations. Furthermore, the fish dish we ordered lacked freshness and was disappointingly tasteless. The remainder of the food was neither exceptional nor subpar; it was simply adequate. It appears that The Terrace Rest...

We attended the Montagu arms hotel as part of my husband’s birthday celebrations, I organised and booked it six weeks before the actual event. I had planned to go there because they offered a Vegetarian roast. Eating a roast on a Sunday is one of our favourite things to do together and I thought it would be a lovely way to round off a nice weekend. Unfortunately when we arrived we were told it wasn’t available as they had changed their menu and we were informed there were staff shortages, weirdly this didn’t affect the meat Sunday roast options. The staff were very accommodating and I have to say caring in their approach and our drinks were made complimentary which was of course appreciated.... Ver carta
