Enjoy a Relaxed Light Lunch at The Duke

Escape the busy town and discover a more relaxed way to do lunch at The Duke on the Test.

Just five minutes from Romsey, our peaceful countryside setting offers the perfect place to take a break, catch up with friends or simply enjoy something delicious away from the hustle and bustle. With free parking available, enjoying a leisurely lunch couldn’t be easier.

Our new Light Lunch Menu is now available Monday to Saturday from 12pm to 2:30pm, running alongside our À La Carte menu.

Designed with value in mind, the new menu features a selection of light lunches, sandwiches and seasonal dishes.

Better still, you can enjoy lunch and a drink for under £20, making The Duke a great choice for a relaxed weekday lunch or Saturday catch-up.

There’s plenty to discover on the new menu, including Italian Bresaola, a traditional salted and dried Italian Beef, alongside our Fishcakes of the Week, served with Curry Sauce and Spinach.

With seasonal dishes and lighter options available, there’s something to suit a quick lunch break as well as those days when you have a little more time to sit back and enjoy the surroundings.

Take a little time out. We’ll take care of the rest.

Testimonials

The end result of the work is a triumph; every aspect of the site and the building looks stunning and works together to make optimum use of everything there.

The Hot Smoked “Chalk Stream” Trout was simply divine and the tastiest dish I have experienced in a very long time.

The fresh food served was a perfect match for the setting; completing the experience for us on the evening, and we will be back!

What amazing place to visit. This will now be my number one go to establishment.
