Banana Wharf - Hamble-le-Rice

Lovely place by the water. We were worried that it would be full when we couldn't reserve a table for 1.30 or 1.45 on a sunny Saturday but on arrival there was more than ample space, so don't be put off and if driving a long way maybe just give them a call. Chicken katsu burger was just ok, but the green curry with chicken was lovely (and massive), and kids fajitas came with 3 tortillas and more than enough fillings for a grown adult so could potentially feed 2 kids. Service was decent, and views were lovely but think they just need to invest a tiny bit more into the decor (and cleaning of the disabled bathroom) to make this place as five star as the views. Full of potential, just requires a few tweaks well done to the team on the efforts to date! We will probably be back in future visits to the area.

Really great spot for a nice dinner. You do have to pay a little extra for food here but the setting is lovely. Public car park next door which is free for three hours. I for the JD wings and ribs combo which was delicious, even if it was very messy.

Absolutely stunning view! You’re sat facing the waters and boats. Benches outside to sit and soak in the atmosphere. Lovely food choice and variety here as well. You’re almost spoilt with choice. The staff was helpful and responsive. They were happy to recommend best dishes considering the relevant allergies. Food was very tasty and timely. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Drinks were also brought in good time. Absolutely recommend

Friendly and super service. Good food, but I am looking forward to trying more of the menu next time I visit. The sourdough bread starter deserves special mention! Absolutely delicious, and fantastically presented.

We visited last night for my wife’s birthday. The two waitresses on shift were attentive, good humoured and polite. Cracking service. Please thank them. Food was great and we will return.
