Our Venue

A Charm-filled Gastropub in Beggarwood, near Basingstoke

Situated in the pretty village of Beggarwood, The Holly Blue is a welcoming gastropub that’s teeming with character, from its oak-beamed dining room to its butterfly-filled wildlife meadow. Join us for all day dining options served up with style, charm and a warm welcome. Catch up over a leisurely gastropub lunch with friends, dine in style in our elegant dining room, or share small plates in the bar as the sun sets.

Dine Outdoors

Delicious food tastes even better when it’s eaten in the glorious sunshine. The Holly Blue’s generously-sized outdoor terrace is made for leisurely catch-ups outdoors. Our beer garden sits on the edge of our wildflower meadow, so you can watch the blue butterflies our pub is named for flit over the blooms. It’s an idyllic spot to gather with family and friends, soundtracked by the clink of glasses and accompanied by gorgeous views over Beggarwood Park beyond.

What our guests say

Good place to eat, chill and relax. Serving staff are attentive, kind and very knowledgeable with allergies and intolerances. Food was lovely, and the ambience of the building was welcoming and comfortable too.

Oren

Fantastic place. We were passing through the area and looking for somewhere dog friendly and this certainly ticks that box! Looks lovely inside but weather nice so we sat outside. Friendly staff and friendly customers.

Sarah

One of the nicest gastropubs we've been in - lots of places to sit with some amazing views over the hillside, some really interesting decorations all around the building, and plenty of room for groups.

Tom

This really is a lovely pub restaurant. Staff are really friendly and always helpful. It is a very modern pub with an old style feel. Oak wood beams, and on the far side, a log burning fireplace.
