Lloyds No 1, Basingstoke

...one of the nicest pubs in the town,.... can get very packed though and bit of an effort to get to the toilets and back,...

.... lunch during the day is good value,... can't wait till it becomes no smoking in May as mentioned on it's website,.... be nice to walk in there for lunch during the week with out stinking of smoke,

Dexters Bar and Grill, Basingstoke

been there a few times, food was ok,.. although last time we went we were charged 12.5% service charge,...

nearly �4 tip for her to bring out two plates and 2 drinks,... I'd rather have gone in the kitchen and got the 2 plates myself,...

I do leave tips, but assuming I was happy to pay that kinda spoilt the meal,...

haven't been back since, and have no intention of again,

The Cromwell Inn, Lychpit

been going there for many years,...... seen some bad landlords and some very rude bar staff in the past, but the new landlords Debbie and Chris are very friendly and have done the place up very nicely,... definitley the best place to go for a beer and a game of pool,.

Only thing that lets it down is the price of the beer though, far to high,.... much cheaper to go in to the town....,
