Big news from us this week!

We are delighted to share that we’ve refreshed our menus.

Menu A – our concise lunch offering, available Wednesday to Saturday
Menu O – available Wednesday to Saturday, and our exclusive menu for Saturday evenings

Reservations for November and December are now open.

As we move towards the festive season, we would be delighted to host your celebration, whether with friends, family or colleagues. We welcome groups of up to 32 guests in the restaurant, with off-site catering also available. Speak to our team and we’ll create a menu to suit your occasion.

Join Daniel live at the Romsey Show, Saturday 12th September, 2pm to 2.45pm, for tips and techniques on cooking like a professional at home, followed by a demonstration of our much loved Old Wi******er Cheddar dumpling, served with braised lamb shoulder, cremeux and lovage. 🐑🧀

A new chapter begins. ✨

Today marks our return, and every detail is being carefully prepared for the guests joining us this evening and throughout the week ahead. Rested, refined, and ready to deliver the AO experience at its very best.

And this chapter brings something new: fresh menus are on the horizon, crafted with the same care and passion you’ve come to expect. More to be revealed very soon.

We look forward to welcoming you back to the table.

Our team has been giving it their all, and it’s time for some rest before we’re back at it. What an incredible year it’s been so far, thank you to everyone who’s shared a meal, a moment, and made this journey so special. 💛

We’ll be back and buzzing on Wednesday 26th, ready to welcome you (and so many new faces!) for the full AO experience.

See you soon! ✨

The Mayflower

A split base of Chalkstream Gold Gin and St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur, brightened with fresh lime juice and sweetened with elderflower cordial. Finished with an optional dash of vanilla syrup to bring the elderflower notes forward.

Delicate, floral, and steeped in local history. ⚓️🥂

Although summer is still in full swing, we’re already looking ahead to autumn with the release of September and October reservations.

As the seasons unfold, so too will our menus, shaped by what’s at its best growing in the fields and being fished from local waters.

We’re also introducing more opportunities to dine with us this August.

Saturday lunch now offers even greater flexibility, with a choice of our lunch menu or our 5, 7 or 10 course tasting menus.

We’re also opening on selected Sundays in August:

- Sunday 9 August - lunch with 5, 7 and 10 course menus available.

- Sunday 30 August - lunch and dinner, with 5, 7 and 10 course menus available.

Whether you’re planning ahead for an autumn visit or looking for a table over the coming weeks, we’d love to welcome you.

Deep in thought at the pass 🖤 It’s been a busy few weeks for the team at AO, from soaking up inspiration (and incredible seafood) at the New Forest Seafood Festival, to exploring new pairings at some wonderful wine tastings. All of it feeding straight into our latest menu additions.

Excited for what the rest of summer has in store. More flavours, more discoveries, more evenings to remember.

Every detail matters. Before the first guest arrives, our front of house team ensures every table at Restaurant AO tells the same story: precision, care, and a little bit of magic. ✨

Every great dish starts with a question: what if?

We are in the early stages of something sweet, experimenting with a new chocolate that we think is going to be something really special.
