Arboro Lounge — Restaurant in New Forest

My initial endeavours into this new, and most lavishly decorated watering hole have so far met with sublime good grace and welcome civility. The bar staff, are to be especially commended on their respectable natures, and accepting ways. I have not attended in the evenings, aside from once, and it was fun. I often have a lager during the day there, as the alfresco seating captures the sun beautifully in the Furlong's 'non over shadowed by trees' real estate land. To feel the merry photonic beams of hot sun upon me as I chill in the urban sector of our region with a golden lager, and a smoke, is a modest form of an Englishman's Heaven on earth. Excellent company, makes it all the more a royal occasion. To which I must mention Maria, the Spanishesque bar woman. She is the delight in the mix which makes a visit sing... She is the rose among roses to whom existence rests solace upon while imbibing. She is so affectionate to the eye, she is 'The enchantress of Arboro'... And I will gladly be going on further valiant quests to get leathered knowing she has the place under fine duty and...

I have a carabean curry here with Garlic flatbread (which is not on the menu) when i've eaten this in other lounges i get a round garlic flatbread. Here in ringwood i get half a flatbreat but into two peices and its more like toast than flatbread.

The beef brisket chilli ive had is usually covered in oil, way too oily, however the food is generally ok and good value in the lounges for what it is, i just think a total change of staff and management is needed here in Ringwood as when ive complained, they havent put it right but just given me excuses. My family like coming here so i expect we'll come again, but they need to be more customer attentive. Food does aleays taste good hence the 3.

Update: went back today and my wife ordered the carribean chicken curry. As she was eating it she realised there was no chicken in it and when letting the staff know they said ' oh i don't know, maybe chef is tired and you might get lucky next time' i was appauled, sadly my wife doesn't allow me to sort it out, but i can assure you we wont...

Arboro Lounge Review – 7.5/10

Food: 10/10 (Miami Brunch with Chorizo) Delicious, quick, and reasonably priced. The poached eggs were perfect, and the added chorizo was a generous portion for just £2.

Coffee: 7/10 (Iced Oat Dirty Chai) Tasty with two shots making it strong enough. The chai flavor was nice, but it could use something extra to stand out.

Atmosphere: 10/10 Funky, cosy, and intimate but still airy. Plenty of seating options, and soft lighting combined with natural sunlight makes for a great vibe.

Staff: 4/10 Staff were a bit inattentive. One standout staff member was attentive and proactive, but the overall professionalism was lacking. Some off-putting behavior, like eating on the floor and unprofessional language, was disappointing.

Toilets: 5/10 The toilets were clean but could use more attention. They were dark, and I noticed tissue on the floor. Signage for the upstairs toilets wasn’t great, and I hope there are accessible...
