A hidden gem located on the cobbled Hamble High Street. A glorious sun trap garden with all year alfresco dining in heated pods, plus cosy indoor spaces, perfect for any occasion.
Whether you are looking for a relaxed Sunday lunch, a sociable drink or celebration dinner, you’ll find a warm welcome at the River Rat.
Within the understated exterior is a stylish modern bar serving a selection of wines by the glass or bottle, and a wide choice of local gins and fabulous cocktails. Upstairs you’ll discover a contemporary bistro style restaurant, whilst on the ground floor is a more casual lounge bar, and the beautiful garden and popular heated ‘huts’ provide a year-round al-fresco dining experience. Join us in our garden for one of our Jazz & Fizz afternoons every Saturday 1-3pm June-August, or one of our popular themed quiz evenings.
Offering modern British and European cuisine, our Sunday lunch menu, and A La Carte dinner menu are beautifully presented and prepared with care by our highly acclaimed head chef, and his team.
We are located at the top of the cobbled High Street. Pay and display parking is available in Hamble Square or the Foreshore car park. Please note our venue has a number of steps into and around the premise.
