| Excellent selection of well-kept ales, including two brewed locally. Very helpful & friendly barstaff. Weren't serving food till 7pm on a bank holiday Monday which seemed a bit late: four separate parties asked about food while we were there. wizzard - 26 Aug 2014 15:20 |
| I had a "pint of prawns" at lunchtime (£6.50) - took almost 15 minutes to prepare and arrived barely unfrozen ( you can get fresh prawns!) and most half grey. Looked and tasted strange and watery. Returned them and waitress happy to take a different order. On payment of the bill she said, although alternative £1 cheaper kitchen told her she had to charge full price for prawns ie they didn't accept anything wrong with food. Neighbouring diners also had the prawns and said theirs also tasted strange but apparently didn't complain - as many diners do not who don't want atmosphere spoiled. After considerable debate they reluctantly agreed to reduce by £1. We have happily eaten at the pub many times over the years but it is disappointing they now do not seem to rate customer satisfaction highly and are determined to get every last pound whatever the food quality. Definitely would not recommend unless they show evidence that they can improve food quality and customer service Francophile - 19 Apr 2014 16:30 |
| The Selborne Arms is a pub that serves food, rather than a restaurant that sells beer. That's why people like me value it and make a beeline for it whenever I visit Selborne. if people want to bring their kids and dogs out with them for a meal then there are plenty of places they can go instead. I hope the management realise that beer drinkers who value old fashioned pubs that havent been tarted up or 'gastrophied' are valued by many of us even if we don't always take to cyberspace to say so!

| I've read the comments here with interest, and in particular the comments made last year by the pub's management about heating. I regret to say that when we were there yesterday we found the pub really cold, and left the pub with much colder feet than when we arrived. scrambler - 10 Feb 2013 18:48 |
| Welcoming barman, decent enough beer on the Saturday we walked there (from Petersfield, so quite a schlep) but no food after 2pm on a Saturday seemed odd. I realise that staffing is a struggle in these hard times but at least some hearty snacks (no, not nuts, crisps and more nuts) might fulfill the wishes of the many walkers passing by in decent weather (I saw two groups leave when told no food). Paninis, cheese on toast, scotch eggs etc aren't rocket science. Still, as the landlady says, they're about beer first and it was good. Nice village as well. pkrp - 29 Jun 2012 22:26 |
