About
The Foresters Arms – affectionately known as the Donkey Pub – is a country‑style haunt tucked away in the heart of the New Forest, just outside Fordingbridge. The rustic yet chic pub offers a cosy, family‑friendly atmosphere with a welcoming pub‑family vibe. The menu features locally‑sourced, seasonal dishes ranging from full‑meal Sunday roasts to rugby‑friendly breakfasts, plus an extensive beer selection including local Wadsworth ales, Guinness, and a range of ciders and sparkling wines. The venue also boasts a dedicated dog‑friendly area, an outdoor kitchen and a stone‑based pizza oven for summer events, making it a popular spot for locals and visitors alike who love good food, great drinks and a relaxed, pet‑friendly ambiance.
