Upton Grey, United Kingdom
The Hoddington Arms
In the Hampshire village of Upton Grey, The Hoddington Arms delivers the kind of family-run pub that rural England promises but rarely delivers at this level. Chris Barnes' kitchen pairs classic and modern-classic dishes with Hampshire ales and a well-considered wine list, while the 'Hodd's' garden tables and wooden-raftered rooms provide a setting that earns the village's loyalty without trading on nostalgia alone.
