We're currently spending one night at the campsite and wanted to end the evening with a drink on the restaurant's beautiful terrace. Unfortunately, after waiting for 20 minutes, we were neither served nor acknowledged. In the meantime, my wife even went to get the blanket for the dog. After another five minutes of disregard, we left, which is a real shame...

Almost everything on the menu is Gluten Free which is excellent for that dietary requirement Great food, great service, fantastic view of Portland and Chesil Beach, really nice sitting here in outside seating area in the sunshine, we had haddock with chips and a grilled chicken curry with lemon rice with a medium glass of wine each so very reasonable around £40

Secondhand smoke from patio area stinking out main room. Far to noisy with barking dogs and screaming out if control children running around. Slow service. Staff with long hair not properly tied back . Male server picking nails in view. Female staff seem sucking fingers. So poor hygiene lots jewelery on display on staff.staff struggling to find tables for orders. Arrived at 6 and was still waiting for food at 7.15 food was big portions but not great. gluten allergy question was not followed up . Staff spent all time chating and no customer engagment. Will not be recommending or going back. Stuffed baby badger on entry desk was quite disturbing to see prefer my badgers alive. Seating is hard wooden chairs.

What a great find 😄 We found this by chance when searching for restaurants that were local to our caravan site. We booked for a table of 11, majority of the group went for the carvery option which was 10/10 lots of meat choices (Lamb, Pork and Turkey) the chef was generous with portions and couldn't have been more helpful. There was stuffing, cauliflowercheese, roasted veg and Yorkshire puddings! The other members of the group went for menu options which were just as tasty. The food was served promptly and hot and the staff were very attentive. The prices were reasonable and fair for the quality of food! If by chance we are ever back in Weymouth it will be at the top of our list of places to visit. It was a busy Sunday lunch so recommend booking. Thank you too all the Fat Badger team 💕

My Wife and I popped in here for a quick lunch and were blown away with the quality of food and service. We definitly weren't expecting the flavours of food to resonate like they did. We had the Calamari and the 6oz Steak Burger and can't reccomend it enough. We have visited here before but the chef on this visit in particular has blown us away.

Such a shame as had good potential, but we waited over an hour and the food still hadn't arrived (we only ordered sandwiches and small bites) and when we asked the final time how long the wait would be, the food still wasn't ready. Paid for our drinks and left, sadly, as we were all very hungry by that point.

What a hidden gem - never knew it existed until it was recommended. My Mom was visiting, so my wife and I took her there for lunch. It was a beautiful spring day, so sat outside on the veranda - stunning panoramic views from Portland to West Bay, along Chesil Beach. The food was excellent with great service. Beware, the portions are huge - even the food on the Kiddies menu was of ma-hussive proportions. Highly recommended

Not a very prepossessing location, in the middle of a static caravan park, but the interior was nicely done and the restaurant has terrific views of the beach. Two big TV screens. The service was good and we enjoyed generous BLTs and a mushroom and butternut squash risotto, which was well executed. Perhaps a bit overpriced but we were grateful given a lack of other options in the area.

This is a spacious place, tastefully decorated and I would love to come again for a full meal. Staff were exceptionally nice to me and my dog

Popped in with the dog while out on a walk and was greeted by several team members who showed me to a table, fussed the dog and got him some water. I Ordered a pulled beef sandwich (which came with a side salad and vegetable crisps) and a side of chips. The sandwich was huge, had so much filling and was so tasty. Really good value for money and just a lovely atmosphere. Will defiantly visit again to try breakfast and sit out on the terrace.

We looked-up best places to eat a Sunday roast online locally and this place had respectable reviews. We didn’t book and turned up unannounced just before 17:00 on a November Sunday. The welcome was pleasant and they offered us a table with brilliant views, it was our loss that it was starting to get dark. We both decided on the Sunday Carvery as we had spied it on the way to our table. The Service was friendly and swift. The Carvery is a help yourself affair (other than the selection of joints - Turkey, Beef, Pork), which I especially liked as I had two Yorkshire Puddings - A commodity which is all too often strictly policed in other restaurants. The food was hot and plentiful. My wife commented that the gravy was getting rather low, which the cook overheard and without any provocation, immediately offered to bring a gravy boat over to our table - I nearly put him on my Christmas Card list! I often say to my wife when eating out that I wish that more establishments would add a few extra £’s to the cost of the meal, but use better quality ingredients. I feel this was entirely the case here as the Stuffing was full of sausage meat and not sawdust, the roast potatoes were beautifully crisp, the dauphinoise potatoes were absolutely stunning and the parsnips were cooked in honey. Two completely empty plates tell their own story. I find it near impossible to get a Sunday Roast (cooked for the masses) to rival the quality of one you would spend all day cooking at home, but this is as close as you’re going to get. Our experience was excellent.

On my week away at pebble bank. Always come here at least twice a year as its a very relaxing place. Arrived early on saturday morning , unloaded the car then straight to the badger for breakfast. It was quite busy & they found me a table to sit at. Ordered the large breakfast but had a rather long wait before it arrived. When it did it was worth it. Food was hot , perfectly cooked & a good portion. Staff were very friendly & attentive but had lots of customers to look after. Deffinately recomended.🙂👍

Attended Fat Badger yesterday (Fri) evening. It was bigger than I expected but still with a lot of atmosphere, fairly busy. We had booked and were told where our table was, we had to ask for a menu, we were left sometime before we placed our order and the food did take a little longer than you would expect. However my dirty burger was very impressive and very nice. My friend said his steak was also very nice and cooked to perfection. The staff and service really let the place down. I get they may have understaffed and on a busy night. It was a shame, it's such a lovely setting and the views spectacular.

We actually found this place by chance and we are so glad we did. It was lovely food in a beautiful setting with really helpful and tentative staff. We phoned ahead to ask if they had a highchair which they did and they were very friendly on the phone and extremely helpful. Once we got there we were seated straight away and asked if we wanted a drink. The service was quick but we didn't feel rushed. The food was fantastic. My husband got the pulled pork hotdog and loved it. I had a buffalo chicken burger which was delicious and our baby had a bowl of mushy peas. I would 100% go back again. Thank you. Puddings also good!

If you enjoy surprise pulled pork and meatballs in your lasagne then this is the place for you. Breakfast was delicious, but not sure I’d eat in the evening again. “Pub classics” are not from any UK pub that’s for sure. Pizza toppings for the price were a little sparse. And also included chicken, which wasn’t mentioned on the menu. Anyway. Apart from that it’s a lovely place and staff are really friendly.

One hour and 5 minutes wait for 4 breakfasts. Toast so dry it crumbled, lumps of gristle in sausage, tough mushrooms and the worst poached egg ever, hard and inedible.

So we're locals and use the Fat Badger on a fairly regular basis, and even though it wasn't too busy this evening we had a few things we weren't happy about....first asked for some water which didn't arrive, second there was four men at one of the tables who were very loud and repeatedly used the 'F' word, but nothing was done by the staff, so that spoilt our evening , and lastly after finishing our mains we had our plates taken away, and were looking forward to pud/coffee however got so fed up of waiting we decided to leave.... admittedly we could have asked again for water, asked the table to lower and moderate their language and asked to see a sweet menu, but should we have to? We went there for our 46 wedding anniversary and the food was lovely, and we will be back, hopefully for a nicer time
