Chesil Rectory
Flickering candles and low beams lend this 15th-century restaurant a romantic feel. Locally sourced delicacies include carpaccio of Hampshire venison with mushrooms, and smoked trout with watercress. The two-course lunch and early-evening menu (£16, served 6pm to 7pm) is a steal. Bookings recommended.

Brasserie Blanc
Get a taste of French home cooking, Raymond (Blanc) style, at this super-sleek chain. The celebrity chef may not necessarily sauté your starter, but the chicken stuffed with morel mushrooms and the Toulouse sausage with onion gravy are full of Gallic charm.

Black Rat
The decor here is casually countrified, but the food is something else. Accomplished cooking has won it a Michelin star – partly due to the intense flavours conjured from ingredients such as braised beef cheek, lamb rump and oxtail. Bookings required.
