Lodmoor Brewers Fayre in Weymouth and Portland

The food was good and staff was excellent

Amazing staff & food . Very busy but it is bank holiday weekend. The wait wasn't that long . Compliments to the chef

This place is shocking for service, one person behind the bar taking orders for food and drinks. Booked a table for 4 people, meals came separate so our friends eat there food, half hour later ours came. I will not be eating here again!!!

Soft play currently closed until further notice Check beforehand

Great welcome. Mums in a electric wheelchair. Front of house manageress said give me 5 minutes. A table was joined together. Music was loud, asked for it to be turned down on speaker close to us as it was affecting mums hearing aids etc. All done with politeness & respect. Food was hot & delicious. My steak cooked perfectly. Only fault was spicy Korean burger was not spicy (everyone has different tolerance to spice). Thank you to all the staff.

Very accommodating to families and the staff were more than friendly and helpful. 2 staff in particular above & beyond despite being busy, (Lewis and Jess). Thank you.

It's a shame dogs are not allowed inside like the harvester they have made space for dogs near the bar area

Food awful, burgers drier than Ghandis flip flops and just as tough, burnt macaroni balls, soggy mushrooms, burger buns cracked under finger pressure. Ordered passion fruit martinis, brought to table but no prosecco. When queried they'd run out but couldn't inform us that while ordering so £13:00 for 2 half cocktails made with concentrate. Blue lagoon advertised with sugar free lemonade....don't have any!!! At this point we mentioned how rubbish the food was and were told by the manager that things had indeed gone wrong but they were tired after a busy weekend!! No point any apology offered. Lewis, the Scottish server, was the one shining light in that place and was very sympathetic. We were going for breakfast as staying at the Premier, but quickly decided against it. Luckily for us there is an amazing cafe "The Weymouth Bay Coffee Co" which is inbetween the hotel and the sea life centre. Amazing service and the best breakfast had in some time!

The restaurant was where we had our breakfast while we were staying at the Premier inn. Nice friendly, helpful staff. Breakfasts as usual when you stay at a P.I. We had lunch here on out penultimate day of our holiday. Good food, reasonably priced. Clean, decor just a little tired. Tables inside and outside. Dog friendly. Car park.

Good value for money. Three hours free parking is a great bonus.

Went for a meal with my family and we all loved it, service was great and we all felt looked after. Would highly recommend.

Love this place Sunday roast was the best I have had

Shockingly poor. Low quality food which took >45 minutes to arrive. This image is what claims to be Chicken Katsu Curry. It was nothing more than boiled rice with chicken dippers, splashed with curry sauce.. £13! The kids pizza resembled something pre-made from Aldi. To top the experience off, we had to pay £4.50 for the children to use the soft play area.. which was a new concept. Safe to say we’ll not be back. Hopefully this performance won’t be sustainable for much longer which will force them to improve, or close.

HUGE thank you to the general manager and "top dog" tonight. You both made a stressful situation of our car breaking down with 2 disabled children a much more bearable one with your genuine kindness by reassuring us, offering food and drink, even offering to get cash for us for a taxi. We are unbelievably grateful. We are home safe and I hope you get good karma back - thank you!

Food is very average but staff are lovely and go the extra mile.

Gammon was burnt and hard to cut, one main came out 25 minutes before the rest and during starters

Lovely friendly place food is great for the money

Great hospitality from Andy and his team, the breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Generously supporting #traceystrekuk on her 5000 mile walk around the coast of Britain for cancer charities

Had a fantastic breakfast hosted by Andrew and the team. That set me up for the day ahead. Thanks for supporting TraceysTrek.uk

Always excellent value for money with helpful and friendly staff. It's my go to place.

If it wasn't for the one star I wouldn't of left a stars at all. We went in at 4pm Sunday 23rd March! When we walked in got told that they only had turkey and beef no gammon! When the rest of the family went up they only had beef. The food was horrible the potatoes were hard. Never again!

Staff are friendly and accommodating, very professional. Food, two mixed grills, delicious. The steak was cooked as we requested and all the food was hot. Very happy and will return.

Had a weekend stay next door at the premier inn.. used pub Saturday afternoon for food and drinks(was 10 of us). Food was OK nothing special.. NO wine glasses.. how can a pub have no wine glasses.. then ran out of small bottles of prosecco.. very slow in clearing tables of empty plates ect from previous customers...Sunday evening after being out all day we thought we'd have a nice chilled drink before retiring to be ushered away as the were closing.. it was 9pm. Little tip .. behind premier inn there is a wonderful little cafe and the food is amazing..

Great!... if you don't mind raw chicken burgers and cold food 👎. Sent the food back and went to McDonalds which actually tasted 100 times better than the food at lodmoor!

The food was pretty good for the price, the portions were a decent size and they catered to all of us (party of 15). Dominic was brilliant - he sorted our tables and made sure everything went well. He is an asset to the resurant. The free refills of drinks was brilliant but it would have been nice to have coka cola original on the machine as well. All round a pretty good place if there are a lot of you, with kids in tow!!

The service on booking food choice was brusque and much of what was on the menu was not available....even to the point of not being told until 10 minutes after ordering. Service was lacking in client importance. On the whole expensive for what is provided in terms of food quality, service and atmosphere.

We had a lovely family meal, the service was fantastic and the food was really nice. Lodmoor staff did well! Thankyou for our lovely evening out.

Good food great service. Very cold inside could have done with some heating on.

We specifically went there for dinner at 5PM so we could use the soft play which is advised to close at 7PM as our 3 year old can get impatient waiting for food. Well, apparently 7PM means 5pm. This did make life a bit more awkward for us as parents. The sign outside still says 7PM. Also, the food is over salted, but otherwise okay. The staff are lovely.

Great roast lunch at a very reasonable price. Will be back!

So slow in getting orders to tables . To many mix ups with orders. Not even height of season!! God only knows how bad it would/ will be then! Food is average at best. Limited menu, if vegetarian or vegan good luck!!! Also very cold environment. Could do a lot better considering location. Would recommend, or eat here again.

Clientele mostly those saying at the adjoining premier Inn. Football was on the big screen and the atmosphere was very male heavy. The food was average fast pub food.

Attentive, Ernest and helpful staff. Although standard pub fayre, the food was great quality and well presented

Was served by a major icon that struts everywhere - extremely satisfied, will be returning soon 🌈

Not a great experience whilst staying at the Premier Inn next door on a work trip. Stayed for dinner and breakfast. Staff were friendly but the food quality wasn't great. Dinner was okay for what it was, you can't really complain for the price. Breakfast I gave up as the coffee was weak and the buffet food didn't taste of anything. Definitely is not with £10.99. Unfortunately because of this, I wouldn't stay at this hotel with restaurant again.

Went in for a table for 4, 2pm on a Friday. The entire place was empty. Not a soul. Just 5 staff stood talking. Not a single customer in sight. Told they're too busy and turned away because "a table of 17 is coming later." The whole place was empty! Weymouth is done for.

Amazing service friendly staff great atmosphere we come every Sunday kids love the play area their sunday roast is exceptional highly recommend this venue

Christmas eve with the family, staying in premier inn. Arrived to freezing cold pub Ripped seats , Disgusting food , menu no better than fast food take out. Desserts ordered at 9.25pm x 3 coffees ordered x 3, sorry coffee machine is now turned off So not ones to be defeated, family invited us to a pre book breakfast on Boxing day, mistake. No room at first for wheel chair, then shoved in a cold dark , loud corner , as speaker was blaring out. One coffee machine working, cold breakfast. Shameful. Some of the staff just didn't want to be there. And we live in Portland and won't be back. Tatty, scruffy, cold.

Great steak dinner and fantastic service from Georgia, Leigh-Ann and Lewis who really made our night with their warm welcome and attentive service

Excellent location. Utterly ruined by service and prices. Nevermind.

Absolutely loved it,thank you so much!!!!

I was pleasantly surprised The food was excellent Parking was available Disabled parking (behind) disabled toilet

Lovely staff. Food was good. Friendly atmosphere. Very good value for monet

Lovely place, Lovely staff & Lovely food. Will be back again 😁

With only one person in front of me, it took 22min to get served. There was no apology.

Came in for lunch yesterday a massive well done to all the staff food was great what a massive improvement lovely atmosphere with all the Christmas decorations up and bonus play are was open

Service and staff are lovely, very helpful and very accommodating with our autistic child. Food was very much okay. The pizza dough was not fresh, sort of tasted like oven pizza… but a great place to drink and socialise

Decided to visit on sunday for lunch . It was the first time going here for some time (the last time was about 5 years ago and it wasn't good experience at all ) but we were pleasantly surprised . The new management and staff are doing a good job . The building/decor could do with a bit of a spruce up ..However the staff are all lovely and polite despite being very busy , and the food was pretty good too ! Well done .

A good brewers fayre. You know what the offer is, but this pub was a bit above the average. Nice welcome on a busy Sunday. We booked tables and arrived a bit early. This pub does a superb carvery which is good value. Decent portions and refills on veg. My wife's veg was a bit cold in places ( plates vould have been warmer) but overall she loved the carvery. Friendly staff all round. Would recommend and return. Ps. if you have table rable card you can use it here to build points ( we had discount offer we used on the day so it's definitely worth building up.

Top Breakfast..mega friendly personal...Restaurant is clean..... How says Arnie...I will be back...

Amazing evening tonight made by 3 members of staff, Andy, Georgia & Kelli - thankyou so much. It was my daughters 6th birthday and you all went above and beyond to make it special for her. Food was great, not one complaint for the entire evening. Thankyou!

Food of poor quality and quantity, the service was awfull ,they tried to give us our desert before we had any dinner. They offer cocktails but no straws lol.

Staff were great, service was amazing all round, the Scottish folk there were absolutely hilarious was a good time all round, also food was amazing

Nice relaxing atmosphere, food amazing and staff were excellent, especially Scottish girl Leeanne. Will definitely be back

Never been to lodmoor before but was impressed by the service and the food was delicious

Lovely food and brilliant service X

Food was good and all staff super friendly will be back

Popped into Lodmoor last night for a meal with the wife and kids, even though it was busy the staff were lovely and food was really good. Definitely a massive improvement will visit again

Went in for some food whilst on holiday last night! Food was lovely, Leigh Ann behind the bar was so friendly and welcoming! Lewis was our server & he was also very friendly & helped with any of our needs. Overall great meal out, will be back!

Amazing food and atmosphere and definatly cleaner heard was under new management so gave it a try and wow the new management should be please

Can definitely tell its under new management, the staff were great and the food was lovely, will 100% be back.

Had a wonderful meal here. Was a bit wary because of recent reviews but since being taken over this place has got so much better. Food was lovely, and staff were friendly. We will be back. Keep up the good work.

Busy but well looked after,staff couldn't do enough to help. If there is a long wait they tell you as you're seated. Food was good and cannot fault service. You can tell it's definitely got a new team with better management. The Only kids area in a restaurant in the town. Very well organised.

Went here for a family meal, 7 adults & 3 children. Staff were amazing & so attentive. Food was served promptly, a short wait, but they kept us informed of the time wait and we were a big group so totally understood. All dishes were really tasty, hot & the meals for the members of our party who are Fussy eaters or with allergies were very well accommodated. Super friendly staff. Great place for Family friendly dining. Oh and the puddings were lush 😋

Went for buffet breakfast overall very nice the only criticism was that the scrambled eggs were very under done, and the mugs were slow to get refilled for hot drinks.

We came out for family meal as we are on holiday We booked in for 715pm so we came at 7pm the place lacked atmosphere no welcome just told to sit in the middle of the diner We was given our menu and not said anything went to the bar an ordered our food the young girl behind the bar looked like she was rushed of her feet and no enthusiasm looked like she wanted to be elsewhere no mention of wait time as we waited over an hour for food if we had known that we would of gone somewhere else when the food finally came out we still had to wait for the waitress to wash our cutlery food was getting cold wouldn't recommend coming here

Booked a table at 3:45 arrived on time we was seated at a table that was still dirty and told the carvery had stop even tho the menu and website stated it was open until 6:30 Absolute shocking service will never eat at one of these pubs again

We popped in for a meal while staying in Weymouth for the week. A lovely lad served us and was super friendly (shame I didn’t get his name) We have 1 member of the family who needs gluten free this was catered for and his meal was bought out separately so the waiter could wash hands inbetween which was impressive to know. The other staff were also very friendly. Food was lovely and good sized meals. Couldn’t fault it.

I was in for dinner Monday night Leigh-Ann behind bar was nice and helpful food was lovely and quick service Lewis serving is was brilliant so funny made our night !

Poor staff was short staff one night.. All the staff bent over backwards to look after us all..Brill staff and food well nice.. People are bad critics these day.. We can't please everyone.. Great staff doing a great job.. We be back next year.. P.s really good with my disabled daughter.. Can't fault them x

Lovely family experience and a special mention to Leighanne for waiting on us :)

There is 1 chef, and we could only go in the play area. This place is absolutely stupid

Come here yesterday for food haven’t been since there is now new management the food was absolutely beautiful didn’t think much off the food before but after yesterday would definitely be returning more often!! Couldn’t fault the food at all. 10/10 There was quite a few off us aswell and we all enjoyed our food.

Stayed in premier inn Saturday 19 October visited Weymouth town, and walked back found closed at 10.10 pm despite website showing open till 11pm ! Very disappointing.

Impromptu stop for lunch on a Sunday. The restaurant was fully booked for carvery, but the team advised us we could order from the usual menu in the bar area. This was perfect for us, so we went with this plan. Food arrived in a reasonable time, considering the busy nature of the venue. Clean plates all round and no complaints. Average prices for standard pub chain food. Staff were welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Some could have used some updated uniforms, which would enable a better visual presentation. It is a family-friendly eating establishment, so be prepared for lots of background noise.

Lovely meal, great service as always. Back again with you soon.

Myself, two children and grandmother ate here for lunch. Softplay was shut (as usual!). We ordered the children's food from the kids menu, their desert arrived before they had even had their starters. When their spaghetti finally came, it was stone cold and frozen in the middle. The table was never cleared and we had to go and ask for desert to come out and still took a very long time! My son and I shared a sundae from the adult menu. That night we were both very very ill, vomitting with food poisoning! We believe this to be from the cream. We have had so many problems with food here, we will no longer be using this 'restaurant' Stay clear if you can

Enjoyed a Sunday Roast. The manager is bringing it all together very well. A little niggles but sorted with no problem. Good luck hope it works out to be better than ever!

Waited almost 2 hours for an only average meal at dinner . Staff were very well meaning and helpful but grossly overworked. Breakfast service not much better again felt sorry for the staff Won’t revisit

If you want to pay for half a plate of reheated shrivelled food and missing ingredients, then fill your boots. Missing chicken from pizza. Ale and beef pie was lule warm, chips were old and reheated a.nd only a spoon full of peas. Asked if I could actually have a plate full of food and got a few more chips.

We love coming here as a family for breakfast and weather it's 2 or 8 of us there's always plenty of food and drinks available. Staff always welcoming and friendly and helpful.

We visited on 20.09.24 with our granddaughter. There has been a huge change for the better. The food was really lovely, a great menu to suit all tastes and the bonus of a soft play for your little ones. Claire ( the lady overseeing the soft play ) went above and beyond to make sure we had the best customer experience. It ticked all our boxes. We've even booked for Christmas day! Thanks for a great service!

Went to this pub waited 20mins to be seated, staff ignored us then once steated, took them an hour to serve food and the drinks machine wasn't working

It took forever for someone to take our order. I think the Sunday Roast had worn them out. The starter was ok but the main was cold. Got a refund and went round the corner to the Famous Old Spa which was much better.

Did not eat but overheard people being told what was not available. Half the beers were not available and we had the last two packets of crisps, prawn cocktail! Had to sit outside around uncleared tables as they are not dog friendly. Also experienced staff angry with other staff, awful place.

Turned away at door, as not taking "walk-ins". Despite being relatively empty, was advised to go outside and book online. No explanation, Went somewhere else!!

We had a lovely meal here this evening. Lewis served us and he was great. Very chatty and made us feel very welcome. Thank you Lewis!

This is our second time trying to eat at the Brewers Fayre in Weymouth and the second time we left unable to order any food... This time it was because they only had one chef on and would only accept pre booked tables, although the pub was virtually empty and the couple before us had clearly not booked but got a table... They also had very limited selection of drinks as most had ran out so I can certainly say we will never be back trying again....

Visit date 16th Sept 2024 Lewis the barman was friendly and a great asset to the company Food was great and hot Will visit again Only downfall was some young locals standing by entrance and could put visitors off

Lovely carvery great selection of meat and veggies. Generous slices of meat. Staff friendly and happy to help

So....arrived Sunday after a long journey, to stay in the Premier Inn, thought usually the restaurants by the hotel have in the past been very good, well!!! How wrong was I, staff looked like they didn't want to be there, there was a staff shortage, so I was told, then to be told half the menu was not available, so ordered what we could, to be honest when it arrived I wouldn't have fed it to a dog, restaurant was dirty, tables sticky, never again would I go to this restaurant

Had a lovely carvery with family…. Definitely recommend

Oh dear what a terrible disappointment. Over the years we've been coming here. But no more, the Sunday lunch was dreadful, we booked for 2pm and the food was either all gone or burnt. The parsnips were so badly burnt they were unrecognisable, as were the roast potatoes, mash and swede dried up and although the beef was red it wasn't chewable, turkey to dry to eat, gammon all gone. A complete waste of money.

Turned up after a 3 hrs drive to be turned away.....not a happy customer

We came in late but they still made us food. Thank you

We recently visited Brewers Fayre and was impressed by the professionalism of the staff. Despite being understaffed, they were kind, friendly and attentive, ensuring all our needs were met. Although we were not greeted upon arrival and had to find our own table, the staff’s dedication and service more than made up for it. We went to the till to order, and the process was smooth and efficient. The staff’s positive attitude and hard work did not go unnoticed, and it made our visit enjoyable. We had the burgers and pizza. Thank you to the team at Brewers Fayre for their excellent service under challenging circumstances.

Absolutely awful from taking order to leaving. Poor menu things not available. No organisation. One of our group finished her meal before we got served. My scampi was Luke warm but ate it as was with friends. Worried was going to get bad stomach. No peppercorn sauce left ! Asked if wanted tin peas or garden peas and could not even get that right. S... show from start to finish. Would have been funny as a slap stick comedy!

Hard one to judge really, it's a seaside location, and we went in the peak of the summer, We had three breakfasts over a long weekend, and each day, there was a shortage of plates, which meant a queue and a wait for a plate, before a queue and a wait for buffet style food. I'm assuming the business has either a small bottom line, or a previous problem with food waste, as the food didn't come out in particularly large quantities, so would run out almost as fast as it came out, so that almost meant lots of people hanging around with half a plate of food, waiting for other items to come out. Food was nice though,

We popped into this place on a hot day for a cold coke after a round of pirate golf (which was good fun) The place had just opened (11:30) so was empty. The manager said he would get someone to serve us, he didn't. After waiting a good 5 or 6 minutes I asked a guy walking about behind the bar. He said he couldnt serve us as he wasn't at work yet?? A family then came in and were told they couldn't have a table or eat until 12, but could book one for then and wait in the bar! (still empty) Tip for this place, if your not ready for customers, don't open the doors!! We left and found a nice cafe over the road on the sea front. 👍 😂

For the 3 of us we had, haddock and chips, chicken salad and a Pepperoni pizza. £40. Not bad for a early evening dinner. Food quality was ok and food portions are not generous but based on the price it is just about acceptable
