The Pig
The restaurant of a country-house hotel in the woods near Brockenhurst, known for its 25-mile menu, with many ingredients from the hotel's own kitchen garden.
The Pig is a country-house hotel, and its restaurant ranks near the top of New Forest food lists. Its signature is the '25-mile menu': most ingredients come from the hotel's kitchen garden, and the rest are sourced within 25 miles. The back of the menu prints a map of where the food comes from. Start with a few Piggy Bits snacks, such as smoked cod roe and crispy pork belly with honey and mustard. Main courses often feature chalk-stream trout. Booking ahead is essential. Some reviewers feel the side dishes and wine are overpriced and the standard is inconsistent.
