Best Authentic Restaurants in Downton

It was like being in a quaint French Bistro. Despite a slightly quirky decor the classic rustic food was amazing and the whole the experience was a lot of fun.

Brilliant service and great fun! One of our table is Coeliac is they did an entire menu for her and made space in the kitchen to prepare her food away from contamination. Wonderful food and we will definitely go back! Xx

This is our third year we have an evening meal at Enzee whilst visiting the New Forest. We love the food, the ambience and is good value for money. In particular the food is cooked to a very high standard. It tastes as a healthy home made meal cooked by someone who cares for quality of produce and has the skills to make it most delicious ! This is a gem of a place in the heart of Brockenhurst and one feel very welcome and looked after. We highly recommend a visit.

We visited Careys Manor for Dinner at Zen Garden for my Husbands birthday. We were greeted by a very friendly man, who wished my Husband a ‘happy birthday’ on arrival, we were then given the choice of tables where we would like to sit. Complimentary prawn crackers are given per table. Great selection of food on menu. We went for Sea Bass starter & Lamb Shank main. Both were delicious and the portions were generous. My husband was treated to a complimentary Sorbert with a candle for his birthday which was a lovely touch. Overall 10/10, will be returning
