Beefeater Grill in Christchurch - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great lunch at Beefeater today! Chicken wings were amazing! Great service from Albina, thank you! Will be back soon!!!

Great food and even better service… George was amazing and so polite he made our experience a lot more enjoyable!!!!!!!

We’ve been here many times and always have the same mains…Surf & Turf and the Mixed Grill Always been good and filling but this time the quantities of every item on the plate were reduced…the steak was minuscule, the chips were less than 10, the chicken was about a third less than usual, the peas were reduced in quantity. Not worth the money anymore If Beefeater think that sudden shrinkflation is going to work they’re in cloud cuckoo land We won’t be back and judging by how quiet the restaurant was, a lot more loyal clients are voting with their feet Beefeater, wake up, shrinkflation doesn’t work

Fantastic food staff service couldn't fault it. Especially George a waiter whom made sure we has regular drinks. Asked us if we were happy with the food. Enjoyed our time there

Leanne was an absolute superstar. We had a couple of specific requests which Leanne accommodated with a smile and delight - in fact all our asks were no problem at all! What a lovely lady and so understanding. Food was good and value for money - as to be expected but it was Leanne that made this a memorable dinner. Thank you Leanne.

Great food, service and atmosphere...enjoyed our meal would definitely come back. Staff were amazing.would recommend

I attended the somerford beefeater on. Business lunch, we had mixed grill and chocolate brownie for desert, highly recommend

Thanks to the team at Somerford beefeater Christchurch. For making our stay enjoyable and easy. Great place as a base for exploring New forest areas and Bournemouth.

Have been a few times food always great staff are friendly. BUT, this has happened twice now, when ordering the waiters need to write the orders down we have ordered the food and twice it has been wrong because the order was not written down.

Had a lovely meal with the family. Staff were great, especially Mitch, and the food arrived quickly. We all enjoyed our meals.

Staff as usual were fantastic (hence the 3 stars) but we all agreed that the rib-eye steak was thinner than before (and therefore drier) and the chip portion was measly. It would be far better to increase the price a bit and get back to the previous high standard of food.

A very enjoyable evening for a friends birthday. Jade our server was amazing as there were about 20 of us. She did a great job keeping us supplied with drinks and food. Nothing was too much trouble. Food was very good too. Thank you.

Had a great Sunday roast beef 🥩 A great portion of beef and roasties . Was a pleasure eating here this afternoon. Had a great meal and was amazing value considering what was on the plate with the roast beef too. Beautiful broccoli 🥦 spears too. And lovely parsnip . Great ambience. Will define coming back to the Somerford.

Lovely meal and great atmosphere, we were served by Leeann who was very attentive and friendly. We both had the half chicken, it was delicious

Brilliant food and Jade put herself out to put us right and this made a superb evening thanks Jade go for the Ribeye cooked to perfection med rare cheers

Great family meal - service was prompt, friendly and easygoing. We had a booth which was comfortable. I ordered chicken wings for starter then chicken and ribs combo, not realising I would get more chicken wings! Had to take a doggy bag home with those! Plenty of offers of drinks refills. All in a good meal and I would recommend. Parking easy but remember to log your car registration to avoid a fine, no one reminded us!

Food cool and when pointed this out to staff they just oh .they served 2 meals and we then waited ages for the third meal I would not come again

Received a promotional voucher on email. Booked for an early dinner meal. Good quality food and service. easy location to find with ample parking (but do remember to enter in your car registration at reception)

I had jade for lunch, she was amazing , attentive, steak was slighly overcooked but still was good, will definitely be coming back

Food was lovely!! Great service from Tom especially with how many of us there are. Will definitely be back. Such a lovely atmosphere 😃

Been too this place for over a year now and always been super lovely and friendly the breakfast is great would highly recommend

Friendly, knowledgeable, helpful team of servers and greeters from start to finish. Good food and drink, sensibly priced

Lovely staff lovely hotel! Recommend staying here! Really polite staff and rooms Easy to get to and close the forest 10/10

After being stuck in traffic on our way home, we decided to stop at The Somerford to see if we could have some dinner. Once in we were seated very quickly and reminder to fill in our car details. Despite it being busy the food came out quickly and hot. The staff were friendly and happy to answer any questions we had about the food.

The staff are amazing. Cheerful, helpful and just great. Breakfast is pretty good for the money, as is dinner. The restaurant, especially in the cold light of day, is grubby and desperately needs a make-over.

We enjoyed an excellent meal and the staff were efficient and friendly. Our only complaint was that on arriving home and checking the bill, we found that we had been overcharged by £1.99 for pepper sauce which we did not have. !!!

Daniel was a great host, very polite, kind and cheerful. Food was amazing too, fries were really good and the burgers were nice and juicy!

Good value breakfast had the fresh fruit salad to start, followed by full English with a perfectly cooked poached egg. Lots of choices. Our waitress Lily was calm professional attentive and personable. A very relaxing experience.

Went on Saturday night for a steak. Good was good and the service was excellent. Special mention for Lily-Mae. Will undoubtedly return.

Booked into the restaurant for evening meal both nights, Sunday night was quite good, and service was reasonable however Monday night (our anniversary) was disastrous. The table we were assigned seemed to be in no mans land as we waited 20 minutes for someone to take our drinks order, they came back 10 minutes later with them and took our food order. The starters arrived 40 minutes after we’d sat down (8:10pm), the main were over an hour and a half after we’d sat down (9pm). We managed to catch a passing waitress for more drinks while our mains were delivered. The food itself was over cooked and poorly presented, not worth the price charged. The duty manager seemed to be dodging the flak from disgruntled diners by walking around with a phone glued to her ear. The table next to us was covered in empty plates, glasses etc when we sat down at 7:30pm and wasn’t cleared until well after 9pm as we’d finished out mains as well by then. At no time could we catch someone to ask for a dessert menu so went without however when the waitress saw money on the table she was straight there asking if we wanted the bill. I was pleased to leave on Tuesday and will not visit there again as it completely ruined our celebration.

great service from jade, service with a smile and very friendly, top bar tender right there and definately be returning for great service from jade

Came in to see the famous scarlet aka Jade and see if she was as wonderful and loopy as everyone says and wasn’t disappointed. She even put on the entertainment and sang a bit of Taylor swift and Adele with her incredible angelic vocals. It’s ashame she can’t have a regular permanent residency every Friday night. My personal favourite was her impressions of iconic actresses whilst single handedly waitressing doing bar and cooking all at once ! Super women. Girl power. Keep doing what ya doing. U will be missed when u go on ya travels.

Jade was an amazing bar maid proving an outstanding service. Nothing was too much trouble, would definitely return after a wonderful experience.

Amazing food and bar staff jade was a diamond couldn't off ask for better food was lovely drinks on point toilet very clean

Came here for a 80th birthday with the family and the food was amazing and well cooked the chefs Andrew and Bryce did an amazing job and our severs were amazing and helpful

Jade was the barmaid and she done an amazing job on entertaining customers and serving us. Thank you jade you done a fantastic job!

Jade was so welcome and friendly top service nice friendly touch and good quality service from jade will definitely go back soon maybe every day

Great place and food ,Some of the beers where not available but Jade pointed us in the right direction great knowable insight of Beers we could have even gave us a taster thanks Jade and Beefeater

Jade gets Tattoo very kind and helpful. Always fast and quick with serving. Very passionate woman good luck to her.

Went there tonight with the family, 4 adults and 2 children, the restaurant wasn’t busy, one yo7 got lady serving half the restaurant, everyone was wait8ng to put their orders, even when they put their orders they had to wait for ages to have it, after waiting for what seem t9 be ages, I asked her can I go to t(e bar and get our drinks, as we’ve been waiting for ages, she then went and brought them. We ordered Natchos which supposed to come with Salsa, melted cheese and guacamole, all we got, was Natchos, chopped tomatoes, chopped onions, no salsa and no guacamole. We checked the menu to double check the ingredients and sure enough they had missed it all. When I questioned with the waitress, she went to check with the kitchen and came back saying the kitchen never told her they ran out of guacamole and the chopped tomatoes were the salsa!!!!😂😂 The main course came, it was cold, the chicken and rib combo were dry, felt like they had been cooked ages ago, reheated several times as dry as sand!!! The chips were nice though!!! Nearly all the tables were uncleared, and nearly all the customers were waiting to pay and rush off. Such a shame, nice atmosphere but the food and the service was embarrassing and dreadful. Never again.

I organised a group of 22 to have a dinner at this Beefeater (as well as us all staying at the adjacent Premier Inn). The initial liaison with the Beefeater staff to organise this large group was first class - they were so helpful. On the night, we could not fault any of the staff and the meal was served well organised and al together. the group had a great time mainly due to the excellent staff. Well done all of you.

Good food and service and staff very pleasant, we enjoy our meals at Beefeater very much every time we go, it’s always nice and hot and fresh

Would absolutely recommend! Scarlett is the loveliest server always smiling and happy to help! Always a laugh and the food is great :)

Scarlett was our server, she was punctual,happy,and very friendly and efficient, we are going to come again, thank you

Excellent portion sizes and tasty food. Our waitress was Le-Anne who was friendly, helpful and efficient. We had a voucher for 33% off food so it was excellent value for money too.

Lovely meal at The Somerford on Friday 070723 with my wife. The team were excellent with a special mention for Rachel, our server, who was excellent, welcoming, and engaging

Rachel was a friendly and efficient waitress. It was Father's Day and they were very busy but the service was still a1 and we didn't have to wait long at all.

Very welcoming, friendly staff. Efficient service. Extremely easy parking. Booking procedure on line is easy, too.

The food was good, but the decor and furniture were very scruffy. The table opposite us had bench seating and the seats were all ripped. The waitress put a party of four there but they moved as they didn't want to sit on torn seating....
