    Bit dissapointed, nachos starter for 2, size was good for one and lacked cheese, with chicken and…read moreribs, ribs were spicy and soft but not much flavour and the flat chicken breast was cooked atleast a week before so dry and the edges were hard and dry. The pork burrito was ok again the burrito was very hot maybe microwave hot and the wrap on the edges were hard. Think its buger king next time coz thats a 3 star this is a 2 star

I come to Basingstoke on business regularly and am perpetually amused by the places we find. It seems we drive through the middle of nowhere to find these amazing pubs that serve far better cuisine than any bar food I'm used to back home. In general, my travels have found that the really good places require effort to find in the UK. Coal Grill & Bar was a surprising change from these sometimes scary ventures in which I've gotten lost more than once... This place is either in or near the mall (can't quite recall anymore), so my expectations were low. For any American readers - I was expecting a British version of TGI Fridays or Applebee's so I was just hoping to find something worth eating after a long flight in. To my surprise... it was pretty darn delectable! We ordered the firesticks - I think we tried all flavors except the tiger prawns and were super happy with our choice. You can mix & match to try different flavors, which makes it fun if you're a bit of a foodie. The blue cheese sauce was AWESOME. This was in December so there were plenty of holiday parties going on, the place was busy but maintained quality service and all parties were well taken care of. It seemed to be a great meeting place for many. Thanks to Coal for keeping the fire going for this American traveler!

    This place does exactly what it says on the tin... Burgers! And good ones at that!…read more This is a brand new restaurant open this weekend, they have a sister restaurant on Whiteladies road (just a few miles away) which has really taken off, so it seems like the natural thing for them to do. So tonight was really busy, pretty much every table taken, this didn't matter though we were shown straight to our table and given menus. You place your orders on tick box forms, and then give them back to the waiting staff. There's loads to chose from with out being over whelmed. Basically you chose your meat (or veggie burger) there's about 8 options inc lamb, chicken etc. then an extra filling, 2 sauces and a side all for around £8, bargain! Food was delivered to the table within 10 minutes, I would highly recommend the 6oz beef burger, grilled bacon and blue cheese with a side of fries, yummy!!!! My friend had the 6oz beef, Cheddar and onion rings which look equally delicious and somewhat mouth watering! Great atmosphere, friendly staff and the service was faultless. I really like the decor, clean, crisp and modern with no gimmicks which is a refreshing change to some other burger places around. They have an out side decked sitting area at the front, which considering this place is on a bustling high street really catches your eye and quiet inviting. Great for couples and small groups, I probably wouldn't want to take a big group of rowdy friends, apart from anything else they probably wouldn't fit many in. I would definitely go back and recommend to others.

    My friend was lucky enough to win tickets for a free burger before this place even opened and…read moreinvited lucky me to go with her for lunch, I took my 13 month old baby along as well. The service was excellent, the staff were very friendly, welcoming and very helpful to me with my buggy - there are some steep steps to get up to get into the building but someone came and helped me in (not sure how wheelchair users will get in but I'm sure they'll have that covered) I opted for the straightforward beef burger and my friend went for the wild boar burger, I had pulled pork and cheddar cheese as a topping (pulled pork on a burger it would turn out is delicious) I loved the fact that you got free refills on soft drinks, left there buzzing having drunk way too much coke!! I ordered corn On he cob as a side as my baby loves it and also some hash browns. The only thing stopping me from giving this 5 stars was the chips, we went for hand cut chips which were more like wedges than chips and not that nice, next time I will go for fries though and maybe I'll update this with an additional star. I also do fear that on a busy week day lunch time the place may become too rammed up with buggies as north street is parent central, I'm sure the management will be able to come up with an innovative solution though. All in all a very nice meal, we didn't pay but if we had I would have come away feeling that I had got very good value for money.
