Upon the peaceful and serene shores of Hayling Island in Hampshire lies The Ferry Boat Inn. Right next to the tranquil waters, the restaurant marries traditional coastal allure with a country pub style dining experience. The Ferry Boat Inn is a branch of the Vintage Inn chain, beloved for their homely dishes and cask ales.
From Monday to Saturday, guests can indulge in The Ferry Boat Inn’s extensive all-day menu, featuring seasonal delights crafted from local ingredients. Signature burgers of Korean BBQ chicken, plant based soya layered with roasted peppers and vegan cheeze, and Monterey jack cheese and beef and bacon are all served up on The Ferry Boat Inn’s main menu. If you're a fan of pub classics, look no further than the timeless options of hand battered cod and chips, sausages and mash, and hunter’s chicken.
Savour a set price menu offering up the option of two or three courses, which serves some of the restaurant’s favourite dishes. Starters include a smoked chicken and red onion marmalade terrine, along with a classic hearty soup of the day, chosen with seasonal ingredients. Mains include almond pesto linguine and plenty of pub grub classics like a rump steak, but same room for dessert, where a warm sticky toffee rum sponge and chocolate brownie await.
The bar section invites you to unwind in cosy seating, surrounded by an ample selection of local hand-pulled ales and ciders. Sip on signature cocktails like the refreshing Watermelon Spritz, the zesty Coconut and Lime Cooler, or stick to the classics with a creamy Espresso Martini and Strawberry Daiquiri.
Sunday roasts include a bottomless top up of roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings and gravy, and offer four choices of meats, a triple roast, and a mushroom Wellington. Children are well catered for with a 'Pick n Mix' menu that include a main, two sides, and a dessert for just £5.
