Brockenhurst has a fantastic collection of restaurants from the Gourmet Pig to the more traditional fayre at The Rainbow Fish Bar; Pub food at The Foresters, The Snake Catchers, Michelin Terrace at Beaulieu, The Rose & Crown. We also have an excellent Italian restaurant Ill Palio and equally good Indian restaurant, Dynasty.
