Winchester has some of the finest places to eat and one in particular will knock your socks off! NO5 has to be the most vibrant happening places to spend a few quality hours eating and drinking. The food is so incredible you will think you are being fed and cared for by the most famous of chefs. The presentation is out of this world and every dish is bursting with flavour and will send those taste buds on a delightful joy ride. We sampled the dishes sitting outside in the pretty courtyard with the sun beaming down on us. A perfect sunny evening full of chatter and excitement over each morsel that we ate.

First we got stuck into the olives, bread and a delicious herb dip before ordering the main events. We drank a smooth red Shiraz that was just the right temperature, velvety and delightful and a crisp bottle of Pinot, perfect for the most balmy and humid of evenings we have had in a very long time. Siting outside in the quaint courtyard was just what this day called for.

We ate pulled pork burgers with a scrumptious BBQ sauce and french fires. This dish was soft, tender and rich. The sauce added a slight sweetness to the flavour that worked perfectly, accompanied by the wine.

Hampshire steak burgers and fries with a spicy dip. The burgers melted in the mouth and not one bit was left. These are possibly the best burgers we have tasted in years. Perfect and delicate at the same time meaty and comforting.

The vegetarian option was incredible. A Roasted garlic gnocchi dish with spring onions and baby red broccoli and chilli with lashings cheddar shavings on top.

A table set for Kings and Queens

The mains where just perfect but no meal is ever truly complete without pudding now is it!!

The best Banana Sticky Toffee pudding on the planet. Rich, crunchy, gooey and it’s possible to say we could have eaten about 3! Not because it was too small, just because we didn’t want this little beauty to end!

Raspberry chocolate mousse with a caramel and peanut slice. This was totally tantalising and the mousse had a hidden sharp treat at the bottom. The raspberries just popped the flavour of the chocolate mousse. Creamy and light with every mouthful, the caramel slice was a perfect addition.

This stunner was a Vanilla cheesecake with blackberry sorbet and a side of honeycomb. Light and delicate in taste but when the sorbet was added it gave the perfect treat for those taste buds.

No5 gets a big thumbs up and 5 star rating with us. One place to visit when you are in Winchester next. No5 also has 5 beautiful, contemporary, cozy and stylish rooms you can stay in too… More on that soon!!
