Milford on Sea was strongly represented at the A&T Food & Drink Awards at a special reception held at Balmer Lawn Hotel, Brockenhurst on Tuesday 25th March 2025.
The awards aim is to give credit where it is truly due and recognise those who work tirelessly to deliver exceptional food and drink.
The village had three finalists nominated for awards in the A&T Food & Drink Awards, which ended in success on the night.
David Wykes at Verveine won the Chef of the Year. We also had two runner's up: Sammy's Café in Coffee Shop of the Year, and The Smugglers in Pub of the Year.

In a recent interview, Shintaro revealed that his favourite place to eat in Hampshire is Verveine Fish Market Restaurant; commenting "I love the playfulness, the composition of ingredients, techniques, texture, colour and taste." - High praise from a fellow professional chef.
Verveine is also number 50 position in the top 100 restaurants in the prestigious Hardens Restaurant Guide for 2025. To put this into perspective, this ranking puts them higher than iconic dining rooms such as The Ritz, The Fat Duck and other Michelin Star restaurants. www.hardens.com/top-100-uk-restaurants
