A warm cafe /pub in the Ringwood (Hampshire) area where I can read /work for a couple of hours and also get a nice lunch?

[WindsurfingDreams]

I have several hours to spend in Ringwood tomorrow and ideally would like to get some work done or read a good book for a couple of hours while I grab some lunch. But I don't know the town/area at all. Any suggestions? I don't mind driving 10-15 mins out of the town if there are better options
Am gluten free so ideally somewhere good for that!

Is this Ringwood in Leeds?

Ooh, I didn't know there was more than one!
Ringwood in/near the New Forest

About a thirty minute drive but this place might work for you - https://whitehartlymington.com/

There is a lovely cafe a few minutes drive from the town centre that is in a community for adults with additional needs. Food is very good. https://www.lanterncommunity.org.uk/the-shop-cafe

Oh thank you, it's good to have a few suggestions as I will probably have to do this trip a few times a year!!

Ringwood has lots of cafes but some of the nicest are in little alleyways off the High Street so it's worth having a good look around. Or I can recommend the café at Hockey's Farm Shop in the Forest which is 10 minutes away.

The fish inn. Great views of the river Avon too.

If you’re happy to drive 20-25 minutes you need to try Happy Cheese in Ashurst. They do a great GF menu including pie and mash 😋
