They have a restaurant section, and having checked their website since my visit and seen the menu I think I'd definitely give the food a try.

Duke of Wellington in Southampton is your quintessential old-school neighborhood pub that has…read moresurvived through the ages - cozy ambiance, historical furnishings, and that classic British charm. I started with a half pint of Folly Road lager (recommended by the server), which was refreshing, light, and super easy to sip. Then came the fish & chips, and honestly it was one of the best I've had anywhere. The portions were wildly generous, and the fish was perfectly golden-fried with crispness that creates a loud crunch as you bite into it. The plump fish was tender, flaky and moist. The dish comes with mushy peas too. I appreciated that they set you up with salt, pepper, and malt vinegar so you can season everything to your taste, and you can request tartar sauce that's light, creamy, and great for dipping. Service was friendly and efficient, making the whole visit feel warm and effortless.

Awesome place, phenomenal service!…read more We spend a couple of days here before getting on a cruise ship, so the tavern and inn need to be reviewed separately. The tavern was a quaint English pub style place with eclectic decor and an amazing atmosphere. We had dinner there one night and breakfast there each day (since we were staying at the Inn). All of the food was outstanding but the fish and chips were the best I've ever had! The servers were friendly and knew their menu well and we enjoyed each meal. The Inn is upstairs and can be accessed via the tavern during business hours or a private outside entrance all of the time. Our room on the second floor was a beautiful corner room with a big bay window and full bathroom. We really loved staying there. Fully stocked fridge that we were free to enjoy too. The only slight downside (and it's not the White Star's fault, so no reduced score for them) is that the bar across the corner got a new sound system and plays it loud until 0200. Every. Bloody. Night. The manager said that the police were going to be checking noise levels after many complaints, so hopefully it's been resolved! But again, that's not White Star's fault and we heard that other rooms didn't have that issue. Regardless, if you're in Southampton, you need to drop in for a pint, a meal or spend the night!

The inn feels like an old ocean liner from the early 1900s without the opulence found later. Some of the rooms are named after former ocean liners, and thus named the White Star now for England's most famous line, owners of the Titanic and many others, now called Cunard. We had a delightful dinner. It has a pub atmosphere but a bit more upscale as a restaurant or tavern. To celebrate we got a bottle of the sparkling wine from Kent. It was quite good and went well with the meal I ordered a pheasant croquette on a bed of peas and Brussels sprouts. It was excellent My main was the chicken dish which was very well prepared and delicious. The sauce was good and the preparation better than expected for this type of establishment. The portions are substantial and I was quite full and unable to have a dessert. The waitstaff are cordial and really hustle when the crowd appears. A bit on the pricier end, especially with the wine selection, but the quality is good.
