Inn The Park You can find this lovely restaurant in Winchester's beautiful Abbey Gardens, not far from the office of the Mayor of Winchester. You can park in Colebrook Street Car Park; there are some disabled parking bays but not many. You can also park and walk in from Chesil St Multi Storey, a few minutes away. The restaurant has been renovated and decorated to a high standard; it's a cosy place to meet and have a meal. I didn't have a starter; I went straight to a main course. I enjoyed the Dry Aged Double Cheeseburger & Treacle Tart during my recent visit. My wife had the South Coast Hake Fillet and the Rhubarb & Strawberry Eton Mess for pudding. We also added the Truffle & Old Winchester Fries to share. Although there are stairs in the restaurant, you can use the lift. If you need more clarification, I recommend contacting them with your questions.

We visited Inn The Park recently and thoroughly enjoyed an evening out in this beautiful restaurant. We dined in the Mustard Room, which had a bit of a more subdued ambience, but there certainly was more of a party atmosphere to the other dining spaces. The service was fantastic, very friendly, warm and attentive, and that really shone through. We started off with the Charcuterie Board, which was incredible. The quality was amazing, and a lot of it is locally sourced too. For main we both enjoyed Pork chops which were nice, but I felt the accompanying sauce and salad didn’t massively show off the cut of meat. The desserts, however, was where it was at. I’ve never seen a dessert menu where I could have had every single thing! I settled on the Chocolate Pave which was incredibly decadent and delicious, and my partner had the cheesecake, which was beautiful and a bit more fresh than my deep chocolatey pudding. If you’re looking for a fun night out with a partner or friends, then Inn The Park is a ‘must visit’. The food, ambience and the drinks were stunning, and the service was marvellous! We will be back.

We were recommended by the sister restaurant and I'm so glad we were, start to finish we experienced amazing service, hospitality and an experience to not be forgotten. The food was absolutely delicious, crab starter and burrata starter were amazing, but it didn't stop there, we had the sirloin and just wow! A great piece of steak, cooked perfectly, with a classy portion of cheesy chips! What's not to love! We will be back! Thank you to all the team this evening

Great place to have food. We were with a baby and had enough space for a pram and the baby which was very comfortable. Steak was incredible, the smoky flavour was distinct. Weren't big fans of artichoke gratin or red cabbage but chips were good. Nice house wine. Would come again!

Visiting Winchester for a weekend and booked a table here as it was close to our airbnb. What a find! The most lovely welcome and they were more than prepared for my milk and gluten intolerance. They had a separate menu for each which I could compare to ensure both were covered. Unlike a lot of restaurants, I didn’t feel my choices were compromised due to my intolerances and there was so much choice. A member of staff talked me through the options and explained what adaptions had been made compared to main menu. Each dish was lovely! Deco warm, relaxed and cosy. Didn’t feel rushed and service was perfect. Would highly recommend!

Had the Menu Du Jour for lunch which was good value, 25 for 3 courses. The slow cooked beef was excellent! And the sticky date pudding was delicious too. Great service, will return

Simply one of the best restaurants in Winchester. A hidden gem. Amazing food. Great staff and great venue. Plenty of seating. Food cooked in open kitchen. Steaks to rival any London steakhouse. Prices are reasonable but what you would exepct in Winchester. Parking at nearby Chesil Street carpark a short 5 minute walk away. Can't recommend this place anymore.. a must try.

Really enjoyed the cocktails in here at lunch time today. The venue is very nicely decorated and the staff were professional and attentive. Can't believe we haven't visited before. It will now be a regular stop when we pop to winchester
