Riverside pub & restaurant up river. Iconic pub which was the setting for the 1980's TV programme Howard's Way. A good walk away or a taxi ride one way perhaps.
I think it's necessary to book these days like most places. A good place for lunch as it's in the sunshine early in the day.

Great bar & restaurant. Menu's which change regularly. Good pub grub and very local. Lovely atmosphere with real fire in the winter and outdoor seating in the summer.
Outdoor seating all year round. The Bugle is pretty busy so always best to book. Other bars within the Ideal Collection are The Boathouse in Swanwick & in Chichester, Kimbridge Barn Romsey, The White Horse Otterbourne

Blow away the cobwebs with a walk along the beach and watch the world go by.
Getting Around
Public transport is limited in Hamble but there is a train station and the odd bus does come here!
The Square station
Bus stop for regular buses into Southampton - every half an hour I think.
Things to do
There is always something going on, on Hamble River. Look out for Bursledon Regatta (now in Warsash) in August. Cowes week - first week of August. Why not hire a kayak or a stand-up paddleboard? Or if you're feeling flush .... charter a yacht with a skipper!
Is Stand Up Paddleboarding for you? Recently moved from Universal to Mercury Marina (Hamble side). Great friendly staff who help to get you going on the river ... it's necessary to book in advance due to the popularity of SUP'ing these days.
