Quick info
About Haus On The Hill
On Southover St in Hanover, Haus On The Hill serves a Sunday roast that has built enough of a following to sell out by mid-afternoon, with a choice of beef, lamb, chicken or pork belly alongside mash and vegetables. The rest of the week the kitchen keeps to pub food, including a sausage and mash served as a large portion. Craft beers and local ales rotate through the taps, and mulled cider appears on the drinks list. The pub takes walk-ins day to day, though table bookings are taken for the Sunday roast, including larger groups. A sun terrace and function rooms sit alongside the main bar, and dogs are welcome inside. For dessert, rum cake rounds out the menu.

Customer Review Summary
The Sunday roast draws the most attention, with reviewers repeatedly praising huge portions and standout cuts, from soft beef and crunchy pork to a well-cooked chicken supreme, alongside sides that several say avoid being an afterthought. Close behind, the beer selection earns steady mentions, including craft options and mulled cider that one reviewer notes is hard to find elsewhere. Staff are consistently called friendly, with one account describing a staff member acting quickly to keep a dog away from an anxious patron. Complaints center on Sunday service strain: one reviewer found the roast had gone cold, another was told chicken and pork belly had run out by 15:30 and had to wait ten minutes for salt and longer for dessert spoons, and one mentions a bartender mistakenly pouring water into wine instead of lemonade. A couple note prices running a bit high for pub food. One reviewer, unable to finish their sausage and mash, suggested a smaller portion option.

“I came here for a drink with a friend...Nice atmosphere on entering the pub. It was a Sunday afternoon so it was very busy for Sunday lunch. My friend and I found a lovely table in an alcove...What stood out for me was the pub is dog friendly...I am very scared of dogs . When a dog was freely walking around the pub one of the staff members was very quick to pick up on my anxiety..He made sure the dog stayed the other side of the pub. It made me very safe and touched that this was acted upon. Thank you. I would so recommend this pub and return again.”

“Booked in advance and they were flexible about us needing to push our booking back 15 minutes due to the rain. Roast was fantastic! Huge portions, fantastic flavour - the beef was soft and the pork was crunchy and deliciously salty. I find that some pub roasts focus solely on the meat and potatoes, and leave the sides a bit boring- not here! All so so good, will definitely come again :) (Only issue I had was that the bartender accidentally put water in my wine instead of lemonade but it was an honest mistake x)”
