Hampshire Food

Hampshire is abundant with fantastic produce, from the rich agricultural land and the coast and waterways. Award-winning cheeses, fresh trout, tempting chocolate, fresh watercress, beers and wine, the list goes on and on.

With such an array of tempting food, it’s not surprise that Hampshire is home to some excellent eateries. Choose from sophisticated urban restaurants in Southampton, Portsmouth and Basingstoke, charming country retreats in the New Forest and South Downs, or gourmet Gastro pubs.

Celebrity Chefs James Martin, Gordon Ramsey and Atul Kochhar, all have homes in Hampshire and are devotees of the local produce, and with
regular farmers markets taking place across the county, plus a wide range of delis and farm shops, getting your hands on local produce couldn’t be easier, so why not take a taste of Hampshire home with you?
