The Wheatsheaf — Restaurant in East Hampshire

Important :- VERY RECENTLY UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT.

My Mum and I made an impromptu visit here and we were happy we did. I live two hours away and my Mum hadn't been here before so it was pot luck, but turned out to be a good choice. We were warmly greeted by Leo first and later by his vivacious wife, Bex, not only is she an excellent chef, Bex is a great 'host', in fact her and Leo make a great duo. Their ethos is just great.

Our food arrived swiftly, piping hot and really nicely presented. Nachos, then really crispy, tasty deep fried scampi and vegetable lasagne. Our only disappointment was that the the chips are only the 'skinny' type and we love a chunky chip, but that's just personal preference so we skipped having the chips. My Mum had raspberry and apple crumble for pudding which she said was delicious, I was too full up to have a full pudding and had hoped she wouldn't be able to eat it all and I could have a taste, but no!

This pub is superb for sports enthusiasts as they have a number of large televisions, it's great for young people and families in particular I would say, but accommodates all very well.

Overall a lovely experience. Parking is easy in Lady Lane car park very close by to the Market Square. I would highly recommend this pub, Leo and Bex are doing...

Was really unhappy with my experience at the Wheatsheaf in Alton, to start off with the toilets were grim and not clean, there was no toilet roll in all 3 ladies toilets.wee on the floor and had a horrendous stench.

I was there a long period of time for an event , I felt uncomfortable as a male member of staff seemed very rude and made me uncomfortable, I was given weird looks that made me turn the other way, even in the main building it wasn’t clean there was food on the floor from previous days, it was no a pleasant experience and from that I will definitely not be coming back and will tell people to not go there as it’s not worth the money nor uncomfortableness I had to feel

Think a hygiene company really needs to go see this place as it is run...

Had the worse Christmas meal ever. The turkey was cheap and nasty turkey roll the vegetables were not cooked everthing was cold 🥶. The waitresses did there best to serve but were over whelmed. The barman could not pour a half pint shandy! The only beer on offer was Doombar and they could mot make a bloody mary. The decor is cheap and nasty in keeping with the rest of the pub. You felt the sticky carpet on your shoes. This used to be a sports pub till a few months ago. They have s long way to go before they can make it great pub. They should start with the Manageress who is the most frighteningly bad tempered looking...
