Mediterranean
Inspired by the relaxed way of life and simple, stunning food of the Mediterranean, the kitchen is at the heart of everything that we do with our vibrant restaurant and wood-fired oven undoubtedly the main attraction. During the colder months enjoy the warming atmosphere of Burley Manor's fire-lit restaurant and in summer, soak in plenty of nature's nurturing on our New Forest terrace.

Following the seasons, allowing nature to play a leading role in our menus, we are proud advocates of the slow food movement and craft our menus with the taste of the forest, using only the finest locally-sourced, New Forest Marque accredited suppliers.

Our wine list offers an ever-changing choice of whites and reds, rosés and champagnes. They are all available by a third of a bottle carafe (250ml) too, making it easier to explore the wine list and sample something new.

    We had lunch for Mother's day with my parents and had a great Sunday roast each and the food was excellently cooked and nice generous proportions. The staff were very attentive and for a relatively small team everyone seemed to be looked after very well. Would recommend as a treat or even just something nice to treat yourself to :)

    We entertained more than 50 friends from our village in Dorset here several years ago. Although we didn't realise it until we were travelling to Burley Manor, it was exactly three years ago, just prior to the pandemic. They were all very impressed, and we had a very pleasant lunch. Some of our guests have returned to stay and dine at Burley Manor. Our Sunday lunch was also delicious, probably the best that we have tasted, even compared with more expensive venues. The setting is superb. The staff are always very helpful, and certainly not intrusive. We dine at Burley Manor regularly, and have never been disappointed. We would highly recommend dining at Burley Manor, it's a real treat. Of course, you can always decide to stay, even better, make a weekend break and enjoy the surroundings.

    What killed the experience for us was that it took 2 hours and 15 minutes to be served with 1 starter and two mains. None of these were in any way complex. The restaurant was not particularly busy, so the slow service was not in any way understate. Staffing issues??? They did at least cancel the service charge and give us a further 10% discount. Such a shame. The venue and general ambience of the Manor was beautiful. I expect more from Conde Nast Johansens establishment.

    Excellent menu - good ‘special’ of the day (unusual fish). The Egyptian bread & butter pudding (yes!) was delicious. Very quiet on a Monday. Service was excellent in the restaurant and the lounge.

    What a lovely setting, I felt relaxed and comfortable whilst I waited for my partner to arrive and having just had a wonderful Temple Spa treatment from Emily in the Spa. The restaurant staff were very customer focussed, knowledgeable and wanting to ensure all guests were happy. The food was delicious and beautifully plated. We definitely want to go back again when we next visit the New Forest

    Excellent staff / chef / surroundings. The roast was the best I’ve ever tasted (and I am in my 50s). Without doubt an exceptional experience where the staff were extremely professional and attentive whilst discrete. Very surprised the restaurant wasn’t full; it deserves to be. Best all round experience in the area (we are local)

    Burley Manor has a lovely setting and great views outside and inside the restaurant. We went for Sunday lunch and the food was generally good but they didn't get some details right. The bread accompanying the terrine and potted salmon starters was so thin and crispy that it was quite difficult to eat. Some of the vegetables and Yorkshire puds were burnt. The desserts had creme fraiche added instead of clotted cream and had to be sent back, at which point the waitress came over repeatedly to ask why we had sent the food back and what we actually wanted, rather than apologising and sorting the problem. It looked like a good value meal, but won't be going back.

    Loved it! We booked our 2nd year anniversary meal here and we certainly didn't regret it. Burley Manor will always have a special place in our hearts as we have had both our wedding reception and wedding celebration here (thanks Covid!!) The hotel has been through a bit of a transformation and this includes the kitchen team and the menu. I'm pleased that they are not trying to duplicate what they had pre-covid but recreate something different. From start to finish we felt well looked after and the food was superb!! You could taste the quality and care that has gone into the cooking process. We left suitably stuffed and wouldn't hesitate to go back or recommend this to anyone.

    Slightly disappointed with our dinner here. Food was fine but not special and in no way reflected the prices. Potted salmon starter was good but the rest of our choices were underwhelming . Slightlyjaded environment in the restaurant, confused decor with plastic plants and themes, why have a fake olive tree when this is the amazing New Forest? A few oak leaves, fir cones and chestnuts would be more in keeping and pleasing or autumnal flowers but not plastic ones!

    Great food but the menu wasn’t the same as sent by open table so disappointed no flatbread pizza. Had to ask for the bread to go with the small plates and then the butter/olive oil. Bread rather stale and no crostini for the parfait. They did however provide complimentary Arancini and olives to rectify the situation.

    I wanted to book somewhere special for my husband's birthday and our wedding anniversary. We have always wanted to go to Burley Manor and this occassion seemed the perfect opportunity. We were greeted with friendly, helpful and polite staff as soon as we entered the house. We were given a choice of tables and we picked one near the window. The ambience of the dining room made for a truly personal eexperience. The tables are well presented and aren't positioned too close to each other. Our waitress, who was extremely personable, took our drinks order and was very informative when we asked questions about the wine list. We decided on a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, which we enjoyed very much. The menu choice isn't huge, but often thats because what they do serve, they serve exceptionally well. To start, I had grilled halloumi, which was grilled to perfection with a delicious red pepper and onion drizzle. My husband ordered the pate and he enjoyed it a lot. For our main courses I chose the wild mushroom risotto, which was rich and earthy and my husband the most enormous steak. Well worth the money he said. I decided on finishing with some ice cream and my husband on a roulade. After our meal we went to the bar and sat in the sitting room drinking tea before heading home. A perfect evening. Compared to other restaurants of a similar status and calibre we found Burley Manor to be reasonably priced.

    Waited at the bar for an age to be served; finally gave up. In the restaurant, we were told we could only order a 250ml glass of wine (nothing smaller) until we complained; sourdough bread didn’t appear to be sourdough and was stale. No alcoholic beer at all. Other food was very tasty

    Chateaubriand was requested as medium rare but received medium to well really. It was still very tender and tasted good but a little disappointed on the cooking of. Absolutely love halloumi starter and the rest of the food was good. Slightly pricey but food usually worth it.

    On looking on line the menu looked very varied, but on arriving for my husbands birthday lunch were given a set menu, I asked if there was an Ala carte menu, but the waitress said no, that was all they were doing today. It was a Tuesday and we were the only people in the restaurant. A group of people did come in, but they just ordered sandwiches. I ordered a glass of Picpoul De Pinet white wine which I love, but was horrified as it tasted sour, my husband said he thought it was from a bottle that had been opened to long, we were brought a second glass which was just as sour. I thought I would be safe with Sauvaigon blanc but that was just as unpalatable. Service was incredibly slow, we settled on a Sirloin Steak and Duck breast which were very good. My husband comes from Burley and was so wanting to make it a lovely experience. The website is very impressive, but the reality of the establishment is not, the staff were very young and inexperienced and there did not appear to be anyone in charge. I have been wanting to go there for a long time as a friend of mine had afternoon tea there about 3 years ago for her birthday and the waiter that looked after us on that occasion was superb. So sad that it has gone downhill so fast, as should be an incredible place.

    Lovely setting (but some noise from a festival being cleaned up across the field). Staff were accomdating but very limited menu on a Sunday. Would be fine if food was very good but starter was good and main ok. Drinks were a very reasonable price for a hotel.
