Empress of Blandings, originally known as St Jacques, is located in Copythorne on the edge of New Forest. Easily accessible, being just off Junction 1 & 2 of the M27, this attractive destination venue welcomes those coming for a quality drink along with others coming to dine. Historically the name is associated with a prize winning black pig in a novel by PG Woodhouse and we have been made an honourable member of the ‘Worcester Society for PG Woodhouse’ of which we are very proud! Inside is very spacious and well laid out with smaller areas as well which are separated by semi screens for extra privacy - a good mixture. The decor is traditional yet very light and welcoming. There are two wood burning stoves and photos of the area don the walls. As well as having a self contained Function Room upstairs, we can also cater for large parties downstairs. We support six car clubs and a couple of local theatrical clubs. With a good reputation for our food and service, the staff team has been here a long time and is well established. Our daughter is the assistant manager and this gives us a family run atmosphere. This is a really good place to meet so come along soon and try us out.
