Its great marketing backed up by friendly staff, recent renovation and fantastic prices for food and beverages need recognising. It is a great place with 'booming' atmosphere to visit especially on a Friday's Happy Hour(s)- happy not only because of the prices but for the characters you meet there. It is a combination of local punters and happy tradesmen. The atmosphere is electric and very friendly. Well done Walkford. Keep it up Louis

Monday-Saturday you can get the following for a fiver if you dine with another (two-fer-a-tenner deal). Outstanding gammon dinner with two eggs, chips and peas. It's a good-sized hunk o' ham; grilled to perfection with near-crackling-quality edges, plenty of chips; fresh-tasting peas (mushy optional). And did I mention the two eggs on top? For the other half of the deal the wife likes the scampi or the chicken: and it's half a chicken, rotisserie style, juicy and gorgeous with no gastro-nonsense pretence. On a Sunday the roasts are outstanding: deliciously cooked meat on plentifully apportioned plates loaded with veg for under six quid (Dec 2010). The Sandpiper is best deal I know for Sunday roast on the Solent.

There is a coat rack as you go in so that you don't have to have your coat dragging on the floor or scrunched up behind you. It has a real fire which really helps the cosy atmosphere. There are seating booths which are made to look like old stable fronts with iron bars (sound hideous but they weren't). It was October when we visited and these booths were covered with lovely fairy lights. I presume these are here all year round but maybe they couldn't wait to get the deco's up. We ordered the veggie quiche, chips, onion rings, mushrooms and garlic bread. The Quiche was homemade and really delicious. The portions were huge and we struggled to finish our food and had to admit defeat. They sold a large selection of real ales of which my partner had to test of course. I visited the ladies which were clean, and no nasty pongs (worst thing ever!). All in all a really pleasant evening.
