The Hare, A Heartwood Inn - (Near Harrow, london)

4 /5 MelodeeS: Overall I had an enjoyable meal. To start I had the truffle arancini, which was an earthy, lovely mouthful. My friend had the cheese souffle, which came with a jug of cheese sauce so you to control how much to pour over the souffle. Pigs in blankets were perfectly crispy, zero sogginess, which is how it should always be! We both got the cod, which is usually the most personality-free of the fishy world, but the chorizo and beans brought it to life. My buttery cabbage was yum and my friend loved her truffle mash. For dessert, I tried the pistachio souffle - their bestseller. I’d been warned it was sweet, so I was prepared, but while it was pleasant, I didn’t get the wow factor, as it didn’t really have much flavour, the chocolate ice cream it came with upstaged it entirely. My friends chocolate dessert, was rich and far more indulgent than my soufflé. Overall, a lovely gastropub.

5 /5 Sanjay Kareer: The Hare is an exceptional Gastro pub with impeccable service especially from Boney! and decor is very fitting. Great service from a clearly experienced team. We had the chateaubriand which was cooked perfectly, and the fries were also on par with the perfectly cooked meat. The signature dessert was also brilliant!

5 /5 Tina Florentina: Hare is an absolute gem. From the moment we arrived, the service from every member of staff was exceptional — attentive, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about making the experience special. Nothing felt rushed, and every interaction added to the enjoyment of the meal. The food choice is excellent, with a thoughtfully curated menu that offers something for everyone without being overwhelming. Each dish was beautifully presented, full of flavour, and clearly made with care. What truly stood out was how fairly priced everything was, especially considering the quality of both the food and the service. And then there was the pistachio soufflé — quite simply unforgettable. It arrived looking like a delicate cloud, light and elegant, and tasted absolutely divine. Perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and melting in the mouth, it was the kind of dessert you keep thinking about long after you’ve left. Hare delivers on every level: service, quality, value, and those magical finishing touches that turn a meal into a memorable experience. Highly recommended.
