Clos du Marquis French Restaurant

First visit yesterday for the Wednesday evening set menu after being recommended by friends. Myself and my husband was absolutely blown away by the delicious offerings!! £25 per head for 4 courses of home cooked, high quality food - we were so impressed. Everything was made from scratch with seasonal ingredients and tasted superb. I would book in advance as every table was taken, it was so pleasing to see such a full restaurant (especially with todays hospitality difficulties) and the success is fully deserved. All of the staff were friendly and attentive from the minute we walked through the door and they made our dog very welcome too. Thank you for a lovely evening, we will most certainly be back 😀

Absolutely excellent dining experience! Had an amazing lunch which was not only delicious it was also beautifully presented. This has to be one of the most unique restaurants there is for miles around this area. Highly recommended for lunch or dinner!!!

We live in Botley; our daughter & family live in Chandlers Ford - but we wanted to find somewhere around Warsash where my brother & sister-in-law (& Archie, their Airedale terrier) were visiting from Gloucester in their motor home. Timings for bookings at other venues in the area were not ideal, so my brother booked the Nook & Cranny for 2pm. This was a pub unknown to me or our daughter. Our group of 7 plus 2 dogs were made really welcome, and the service was attentive and quick. We all went for main courses, and all of us found the food excellent. I had the hake special which was a nice chunky piece of fish - well cooked and presented on a bed of vegetables. Most of the group had a nice dessert, with the roulade highly recommended. It was not busy for a Sunday afternoon in winter, so there was no pressure to vacate the table. We were there until 5pm just chatting and catching up with family, in a nice atmosphere. We have lived in Botley for 8 years and not even driven past this pub, just 15 minutes away. But we will certainly go again and will recommend to friends and neighbours.
