Robs Filling Station in Poole

The burger was the best i had all year, juicy patty crispy bacon lovely. The owner was very friendly and funny and the overall vibe was great. Highly recommended!!

Fantastic Sunday Roast and a good laugh with all the other people customers.

Needed to find a breakfast place near to North Poole. Searched for places near to my location and Rob's Filling Station appeared. Initially drove past the place but on turning back we found this outdoor venue. Food was wholesome , large and very delicious. Just a shame that the venue isn't in Kent. Food cooked by Rob on a bbq. Very popular with local people. Staff very friendly and great. Ask Rob about Project Q, such a heart felt story and future project. Hope Rob achieves his dream. Will return when I'm next in the area.

Had a lovely family roast, plenty of food, and lovely staff. Had a great time, highly recommend to anybody who wants great food

Great experience here - lovely, friendly people, great service, great value, great food!

Thanks for breakfast Rob and uncle Mark. It was wonderful to meet you and hear your story over handmade sausages and a very generous and delicious breakfast. I will return soon with my family for Sunday lunch and weekend dinner.

Had the most wonderful Sunday lunch with 7 different veg. When booking you have to specify your meat of choice. On Sundays there is one sitting at 1pm. Everything is brought to your table piping hot and you can have extra roasties and Yorkshire puddings. The best bit being you can have a Yorkshire with any meat of choice, not just beef. Don’t even get me started on the gravy!!! I’m so impressed I’m already trying to book for next week. One tip, best to avoid having breakfast!!

Popped down for a Full breakfast to take away and it was brilliant. Phoned ahead and was ready within 15 minutes. Big portions and great value. Highly recommended and a polite and friendly owner. Will definitely be back.

Lovely friendly people,great pizza and a good time had by all 👍

Absolute gem of a place. Believe the reviews - fantastic food, fantastic atmosphere, fantastic ethos. It's a regular treat for us to have brunch at Rob's. It's the place we would take non-UK visitors to show them the best of British culture. Just, outstanding.

It's a must go. For the atmosphere the food and the purpose of the owner.

Been before for breakfast, but this time was a delicious Sunday roast followed by the best homemade cheesecake . And if you like a bit of banter with your food Uncle Mark & Uncle Rob are the perfect accompaniment.

This place is so amazing with the best and friendliest people serving the most amazing Sunday Roast. If you get a chance then don’t hesitate to visit you definitely won’t regret it.

We went for a famous Sunday roast. It did not disappoint. There was a 1pm sitting so all meals were served together with a choice of four meats. So much food and Yorkshires were on everyone’s plate regardless of your choice of meat. While we were still eating the staff were offering more roasties, yorkshires and gravy. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back.

First time I came was so my mum could have breakfast after I (foolishly) had chosen a healthy option somewhere else. Fresh homemade bread, the most delicious sausages (mum let me try hers) I’ll be back for my own! Last night I came for dinner, I had Lobster and mum had the pork chop. Wow! The food is amazing here! The hospitality of the staff is on another level too, you are immediately made to feel at home. Prices are great. There’s always a great atmosphere as there’s always regular customers eating and saying how their food was fantastic as always. I’ll become that person, it’s worth the drive from Hythe in Southampton!

Had a fantastic meal at a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend it to anyone. Booking a table is advised as they do not have a massive seating area. You will not be disappointed.

Absolutely banging brekkie. Thanks so much Rob and team, I have put you on my favourites for when I'm back down this way!

Just had our first roast, it was amazing, the guys who work there are so friendly the food is cooked to perfection and fresh. Can not recommend highly enough we will definatly be visiting more often we now want to try the breakfast. Thank you rob and the team.

I had a takeaway Roast lamb dinner. It was absolutely delicious and very hot. I would thoroughly recommend RFS

We came down from London to poole to see a couple of really good long time friends Brenda and Mark and decided they would take us out for a meal and didn't really tell us anything about this restaurant. When we pulled up outside I had a little smile on my face and owell let's give this a try. We'll I'm glad me and the did WHAT A FANTASTIC PLACE everyone was nice and friendly right from the start. Sat down and studied the menu pizza fresh fish and meat dishes spoilt for choice the food was coming out to other tables and everything just looked amazing and not small portions either. When our meals turned up I got stuck in to mine wow what an experience from start to finish. Gob smacked 10 out 10 what a gem of a place can't wait to return back to robs filling station for some more of this excellent food. We'll be back for sure. Very nice to meet all the team rob mark & Megan. Keep up the good work bye for now Debbie and Andy

On getting down to Poole, we googled 'best brunches' and came across 'Rob's filling station'. Both Rob and Mark were so friendly and would have been happy to cook anything we wanted. On their recommendation, we had baked eggs and it was delicious! This place really is a hidden gem and we would recommend anyone visiting Poole to try it. Thankyou to you both...and wishing you all the very best with your charity fund raising.

First class breakfast, happy friendly service. For a tent it is surprisingly exceptionally good

What great places! 10/10 simply amazing.

An absolutely unexpected gem. You do turn up and wonder what you've let yourself in for but once the food starts coming out you understand why others have rated this so highly. We were 4 adults and 4 kids and we had turned up slightly early without booking but they welcomed us in. We all had amazing meals, from starter to desert, all of which was very fresh, great portion sizes and very reasonably priced.

We went for dinner and it was so delicious, there were 6 of us and we ordered from the special menu and the pizza menu. We took our own beer and wine and Robs provided the wine glasses! Everything was perfect, the portion sizes were very generous, my husband had the seafood and there was so much in his bowl, he said it was delicious! The staff were extremely friendly and very interested to know that everything was ok with food and service. Its was like fine dining in a car park setting and we can not wait to go back. Highly recommended, be sure to book a table. We loved it.

We love this place!!! It’s got everything you could ever want!! Best food, best atmosphere and dog friendly!! As for Sunday lunches… omg, brace yourself!! They are THE BEST in Dorset… also, if you’ve room for pud (highly unlikely as the lunches are HUGE!) try their homemade cheesecake… then go and have a lie down as you’ll need it!! Best in the business ♥️

Absolutely fantastic meal from the wonderful staff at RFS as usual!! Food was fresh, massive portion, Piping hot and delicious!! Pudding as always was a great finisher. Staff were fantastic from Mark and Rob in the kitchen cooking & Megan who looked after us all evening. Even keeping the 2 little ones entertained, allowing us to enjoy our meals! Would highly recommend! Thanks again

Absolutely rubbish Sunday lunch could,nt even make out what we were eating it was so bad .Cant believe we were charged £10 EACH for a small dinner . Did,nt eat any of it . Very disappointed definitely would not have his food delivered to me again .wish I,d taken a photo of it it was that bad and I would of put it online for everyone to see how disgusting it was. My sister-in-law bought it for me as a treat!! Poor Jeannie kept apologising to me she was soo embarrassed.

I visited Rob's Filling Station and was thrilled! The food was delicious and full of flavor. The atmosphere was incredibly pleasant, making me feel right at home. The staff was friendly and professional. I sincerely recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and a cozy vibe. I'll definitely be back!

Can't remeber having a better breakfast if I'm honest! Plus very friendly staff and owner.

Incredible generous breakfast, good atmosphere, bottomless tea/coffee and friendly staff - highly recommended!

At least there was sausage today. Really a top friendly bunch. Will be back.

I've now tried both breakfast and pizza (separate visits)... Both excellent! Thanks to the friendly staff for providing such a good atmosphere 🍳

Meet up with a few former colleagues for a catch up and a bite to eat. Very nice food friendly service, won't need to eat for the rest of the day. Thanks for to the team down there will be visiting again soon. Bob

Epic Roast!!! Still the best in town. Delicious meat, tasty veg. I chose to takeaway but eat in is an option too. Thank you Mark and Meghan!! Rob, hope you kept your kit on!! 😂😜

Went for a family birthday, it was superb.

Great food and lovely staff. All really happy to give sightseeing recommendations. Nice atmosphere - would highly recommend!

Lovely people there doing a great thing. Lady waitress we had was so friendly and really looked after us. The 2 guys running it also really made you feel welcome and had such passion for their great food. This place is a real hidden gem and you must try.

Loved it every bite, food amazing , owner lovely chap . Don't think to come in just do it won't be disappointed

Organised event for a Morris Team, our xmas social. Only we could have our event land on the coldest night this winter. However although this was outside a massive gazebo (with sides) we had heaters. The food was absolutely amazing, however the pud looked rude but was so tasty. Great night had by all

Wasn't sure what to expect from this place. A couple of gazebos on an old garage forecourt. Food was great, tasty, fresh and mostly homemade. Children loved making their own pizzas. I'm happy to take my own alcohol. Staff were welcoming, and with interesting stories. My feet were a bit cold though when we left.

Top place, great home-cooked food and fantastic service. Don’t be put off by it being in a tent.

Came here earlier today for a family dinner, i have never in my life been somewhere so friendly and accommodating, everyone make us feel so welcome and not to mention the food was amazing!! don’t think i can ever buy a shop bought Kiev ever again! we all absolutely loved the atmosphere along with the food and the super friendly and chatty staff, safe to say we will all be back soon. Definitely recommend for literally anybody, the kids and grandparents all loved it, Thanks guys! x

This is my favourite place in Poole to go for breakfast by far! I also love their dinners when they do 3 course meals. The atmosphere is fantastic, Rob, Mark, Debbie & Megan are truly the best! Nothing is ever too much trouble and are always up for a chat aswell as serving great food!

Unusal location but great place with a great atmosphere topped off by some great food. Portions were massive and tasty. Served by a wonderful team who make you feel so welcome.

We went here yesterday in the morning and both ordered the full breakfast. I have to say I think I cook a good breakfast at home so I'm a bit picky when it comes to eating breakfast out. This was, without doubt, the best breakfast I've ever eaten out. Very well cooked and presented , all the ingredients were delicious and the products used really nice topped off with farmhouse bread for toast. It's a lovely atmosphere with the staff being so friendly and making sure we were satisfied with what we had. We would thoroughly recommend and are looking forward to trying the Sunday roast and evening dinners. This really is a gem, so pop along and try and whilst doing so add an extra tip or donate to Robs fund for building a surgical unit to benefit the whole community. This lovely guy has a vision for the future and deserves all the support he can get. Best of luck Rob Mark and the rest of the staff and thanks for a lovely brunch. Lorraine & Phil

Another delicious Sunday lunch with friends, excellent service, friendly banter, well worth the price, definitely be visiting again soon

Have reviewed RFS before but it needs more than one 5* review from me! Have been many times and it is never less than amazing. Great food, endless cups of tea or coffee and the very best company in Rob, Mark and Megan.my son and grandson when visiting from Berkshire always insist on an RFS brekkie and our family who visited from the USA Christmas ‘22, said they had never had a better meal, in a tent, in a car park, in the middle of December!!! Keep doing what you are doing guys and we will keep coming. Project Q is on the horizon!

Was going great until I bit into a sausage to find a massive piece of plastic in it.. complained to owner wha said sorry sometimes the packaging gets mixed up, no refund offered or exchange or even an apology for the cut mouth. Never again

A unique and surprising place. Great people with a strong humane purpose. Give it a try.

Rob's filling station did us a fabulous Thanksgiving dinner tonight. Who knew they could make pumpkin pie? Everything was lovely and they all went out of their way to make it special for us.

Drove down from Bath to try a legendary roast at rob's, a 2 hour trip. Legendary fails to describe how good an experience it was, although it was our first time visiting, within moments we were made to feel like old friends. The whole experience was one big pleasure, superbly cooked food, the staff were friendly and caring to all of the customers, giving the place the atmosphere of a family gathering. Definitely planning a return trip.

Had an incredible Sunday Lunch today with friends, Hot and plentiful and service is with a cheeky smile. All the staff are super attentive and even came round and offered extra veg, potato’s, gravy and Yorkshire Puddings We “forced” ourselves to have pudding and the cheese board was plenty for two, the rest of us had the amazing apple crumble and custard Recommended to other friends via text whilst we were still sat at our table Will return both for Sunday Lunch and Dinner at the weekends ❤️

A spontaneous find! Which ended with two very full bellies filled with amazing food! Thank you Rob and Mark for your quality food and hospitality!

Absolutely smashing breakfast. Right out of the way at the roadside. Rob and Mark were super welcoming and the food was top notch. I will definitely come back when I'm down this neck of the woods again.

Just WOW. As a northern man, I find it hard to get a nice roast on a Sunday! let me tell you it was up there with one of the best I have eaten... Once you try it you won't go anywhere else! cheers guys! amazing high quality food! fantastic prices, amazing personalities, friendly faces.

Came after seeing glowing reviews online! Didn’t disappoint! Thank you 🥰

We LOVE this place! They do the absolute best roast and fantastic brekkies. I promise you will not be disappointed. The guys that run it are the loveliest most genuine people you could meet. Save room for the desserts they are incredible!

Was in need of an impromptu lunch and the filling station was an unexpected surprise. My bacon and egg roll was made with care and was delicious. The owners Rob and Mark are lovely people too. Definitely recommended.

Had been wanting to try this place for ages, went today for brunch, what a lovely meal and friendly team. Strongly recommend trying this out and support a local business.

Absolutely lovely Sunday Roast. Plenty of everything plus 2nds. Told Mother she has competition which didn’t go down well. Fantastic atmosphere and service. Sure we will be back. Thank you to all the team. Debbi

Rob and Mark are absolute gents. Food was great, the breakfast bap is quite the tower of food. Well priced and great food, would highly recommend.

Fantastic food, fantastic people!!

A place to go after 17:00. Their low cooked roast and oven pizzas are the must try.

it didn't taste nice i had a bacon roll and it wasn't cooked the hole way wouldn't come again never had this experience from here before very disappointed

Absolutely amazing. Fresh, beautifully cooked food. Great menu. Nothing was too much trouble. Exceptionally friendly -Rob and his team are so amazing and inspiring in what they’re hoping to achieve. We will continue ti share RFS - We will be back x

A rough and ready shack, but don't let that fool you. Mark, the chef, is one of the friendliest people you're likely to meet, and his food is really good. Not the cheapest place to eat, but the portions are generous and clearly made from quality ingredients. Even the sausages used in the hot dogs are his own recipe and made exclusively for him. And how many other places do you know that serve chip butties? Or dirty chip butties (with cheese and paprika)

What can I say, we received a warm welcome, fabulous customer service. You can see the food being prepared and every dish we saw coming out looked amazing, We had the full English. This was packed full of flavour, you certainly can tell the difference...

We found RFS on TripAdvisor and stopped off for brunch before getting on the ferry at Poole. It was a fantastic experience in a very unusual setting. The food was excellent. My wife and I had delicious BLTs - freshly baked bread and excellent ingredients....

Great Sunday Lunch with Family. Roast Potatos and Parsnips were scrummy. x

This has to be one of the best eating establishments in the south, rob and mark have to be the best hosts of any restaurant and please ask them about there work with ex military I promise you will be amazed the food is brilliant the service is second to none 5 stars all the way

Amazing service, food is really good - don't go away without eating the homemade hash browns!

Take away oven fired pizza just delicious, the quality never disappoints, Friday night for pizza! Freshly made

Nice local surprise for breakfast.

Wow, what a find, what a breakfast and what lovely people! We stayed overnight at a hotel nearby, didnt fancy paying over the odds for a luke warm buffet breakfast so found RFS after a quick search of the area. Best decision made. Piping hot,...

Another wonderful meal! This time from the evening menu. We all thoroughly recommend Robs Filling Station for a genuine great meal in an unusual setting! We will be back!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Rob’s Filling Station. Our friends had been recommending it for a long time and they invited us down. It is the cosiest, friendliest, cleanest, most inviting, tent-in-a-car-park restaurant and I wouldn’t hesitate recommending it anyone! Not only is the...

Lovely people and great food. Rob is very friendly, Megan is a lovely server and Marks food is delicious. Dirty fries and the hotdog are gorgeous. All round great food and atmosphere. Highly recommended. And for an evening meal, bring your own alcohol! Even better!

Lovely guy who was very friendly, accommodating and chatty to us, had a lovely conversation, great place we will definitely come again !!

Our first visit. Great friendly service and excellent food , definitely going back.

Our second time visiting and can’t fault it. Absolutely exceptional service and the food is incredible. Very cosy environment!! The food is all homemade and sooo fresh.

Very friendly place and tasty pizza. Also, you can bring your own alcohol drinks.

Wonderful meal with my family from NZ. So much food and ‘seconds’, all beautifully cooked. Recommend this worthy charitable restaurant.

First visit and made very welcome by all, Rob soon got into the banter and settled us down. Service was first class and food was exceptional and would highly recommend this place to anyone. I had beef and my wife chicken and everything about both...

I finally visited Rob's yesterday with my partner and 2 friends. I wish I had not waited so long. I had been missing out on amazing food and exceptional service. We were looked after from the moment we arrived by the friendly team. The roast...

Had an amazing lunch here. Was passing so just stopped off to give it a go and had a lovely time. Food was fab. Atmosphere just as good and really relaxing and friendly. Definitely deserves all the 5* reviews.

Wow! An unexpected find by using my phone maps feature for places to eat. Don’t be put off by what is a tent in front of a unit - the owners are very friendly, the food great and at a reasonable price. When I am...

Excellent full English breakfast sourcing meats from local butchers and home made bread. Family run and friendly. Pizza oven after 5pm!

Bloody Brilliant. What can I say! We went for a Sunday roast dinner to sit in for a change from our usual breakfast order, amazing food and so tasty! Make sure you bring your sense of humour and your humble self - you’d feel right...

RFS, we found this place by accident but my god I'm glad we found it. REAL WOOD FIRED PIZZA OVENS!! Homemade dough, stretched, topped and cooked infront of you and a daily specials menu based on what is fresh and locally sourced. I had an...

Wonderful evening, delicious food, hubby said mushrooms were the best he’s had and the venison was fantastic. Lots of laughs and giggles too with Rob, Mark and Megan🤗🤗

Really good breakfast, lovely staff. Tasty food, friendly atmosphere

I went to this establishment this morning after booking my motorbike in for an M.O.T and these guys cook one hell of a good full English breakfast I've been to this place before and was so happy to go again these guys have got it to a T much respect for them and I'm very happy to go back they have never let me down top top place I love It I orderd my meal under the name Jamie I work in swanage but I'll happily put anyone there way

For what it is, gazebo's on a car park by industrial units,it's pretty good, the food was ok meat was a bit chewy and knives are blunt (Beef roast). The staff are very good polite and funny. However that said I have only been once but will try a breakfast there. The story/life journey Rob has to tell and the excitement for the future are inspiring. It's worth a visit it is what it is.

Popped in for a breakfast roll and it didn't disappoint! Sausages were good quality meat from a local butcher, egg was cooked to perfection. Probably the best I've had round here. Really friendly and chilled atmosphere. Super dog friendly too which makes the visit even more welcoming :) lovely friendly staff who enjoy chatting to customers! Look forward to coming back for a stone baked pizza.

Popped in for breakfast with 2 friends, breakfast was tasty and cooked to our liking. Friendly , chatty guy's doing a great job.

Wow!!! Friendly , funny, foodie.. lovely breakfast good while you wait..true gent Mr Rob inspirational and a joy to listen to his future & past plans.. thankyou for sharing...

Just had the most amazing Sunday lunch. We’re on holiday and met up with Rob and Debbie for a long awaited catch up. Fabulous atmosphere, great environment and the food was served red hot. AMAZING flavours! Thank you Mark and to Megan. We’re stuffed!!! We...

One of the best places to eat in Poole if you like tasty freshly cooked food in a unique location. Great friendly atmosphere.

Phenomenal food, bread was made fresh on site, everything was cooked perfectly and the service was amazing. Love how these guys initially got started during the pandemic! Couldn't recommend enough.
