We visited the place for todays lunch. When received our meal we realised why the name is "Full Plate": the portions are huge and the quality of food is excellent. Pierogi were homemade, delicious! Zurek soup was rich and aromatic, served with sourdough. We are looking forward to going back to try their Vienna cheesecake and other polish dishes.

So glad that we found and booked this charming Polish restaurant for our recent day trip to Bournemouth.-Located down a flight of stairs from the entrance, the dining space still feels contemporary, airy and spacious. Our host was very welcoming, polite and he helpfully explained anything that we were unsure about (and his recommended favourite beer was beautifully smooth)-The menu is typically Polish and we found the quality of the food to be really good – certainly this would be a good place to introduce someone to Polish food. -For STARTERS: Heartily recommend the RUSSIAN DUMPLIINGS (PIEROGI with CHEESE). The ZUREK soup was delicious - a thin soup combining fresh herbs, smokey sausage and a gently sour undercurrent of rye that really sets up the taste buds for the next course. -FOR MAINS: We asked about the XL MIX GRILL and was advised “Its big!” Luckily he skipped the starter as his plate was the same size as the menu! It was a lot of meat but perfectly cooked and it clearly went down well! The spicily seasoned BEEF STEW served with the KOPYTKA (potato dumplings) was also a winner for one of my other friends, as were the POTATO PANCAKES with the mushroom sauce the base of which is a little like rosti, but better. One of the SPECIALS was MEAT STUFFED CABBAGE and this was the best rendition of one of my personal favourite Polish dishes as the meat filling was firm and not padded out with rice as is so often the case and the accompanying MASHED POTATO was firm and creamy.-Sadly by this point we were all feeling rather well fed, so we had to put a rain check on any aspirations for a desert until next time. However, we thoroughly enjoyed the excellent food and friendly service at The Full Plate. We would gladly return and, if we lived locally, this would become a regular place to eat.

The food here was absolutely delicious & both my husband and I enjoyed it. However, what let the restaurant down was the fact that even though it’s small & downstairs, they still let dogs in. This put us off returning which is a shame.

Este restaurante es una pequeña joya y vale la pena visitarlo, la cocina polaca era increíble, una buena variedad de platos, y el pan de ajo estaba increíblemente con ajo. ¡Me encantó!Luego comí pollo envuelto en tocino con una selección de ensaladas y papas que estaba muy bien presentado y lleno de sabor, todos disfrutamos nuestras comidas y tomamos un par de tragos de vodka polaco después, lo cual fue encantador, definitivamente volveremos.

Aunque en realidad no he estado en el restaurante principal, he comido su comida en el bar Downes, justo encima de tres veces, ahora, en el camino de regreso del trabajo.La comida es excelente, estilo casero de calidad, grandes porciones y todo a un precio extremadamente razonable; para mí siempre fue por debajo de 10 para una comida principal. Nunca antes había probado la comida polaca y este lugar ahora me engancha, ¡incluso estoy probando mis propias versiones de sus comidas en casa ahora! También ha demostrado ser un éxito entre mis compañeros de trabajo y se está convirtiendo en una parada regular cada semana.El bar Downes también merece la pena una visita. Recientemente, cuenta con un personal muy amable que lo hace sentir bienvenido en segundos, con un ambiente agradable y no muy ocupado. Combinado con la comida Full Plate, no puedes equivocarte.

Después de haber comido un montón de comida polaca y leer las críticas, pensé que estábamos en un capricho. Pagamos 15 cada uno por el buffet. Había muy pocas opciones que habrían estado bien si los platos estuvieran llenos de sabor. La carne estaba tierna pero las salsas carecían de sabor y condimento. Nos fuimos decepcionados.

Es simplemente un estilo de buffet sencillo creado con comida realmente deliciosa, buena cerveza y una cálida bienvenida.

We were staying for a few days in Bournemouth and found this Polish restaurant. I really loved it (am of Polish origin) for the quality of its food and friendly helpful staff. The atmosphere was really good to - relaxed and unhurried. I had the pierogi(two sorts -cabbage and mushrooms and also the cheese and potatoes). They were delicious. As a Pole I couldn't resist the potato pancakes with sugar & cream (I remember the hours I used to spend making them when I was growing up). They were delicious and not on the menu as a pudding but I was so pleased that I was able to order them. We also had some delicious vodka (Wisniowka - cherry) to finish the meal. Really good meal and excellent value. The restaurant was busy - a really good sign that this is an excellant place to visit.

It was ok but there was nothing special about it. Our devolays were rather dry and we didn't get any ice with our drinks. Side salads were good. Also we were the only diners at the time but the staff were not very interested in our presence. They brought us our meals but from that point onwards they were either nowhere to be found or texting behind the counter.

They serve a buffet style so that you can try a little of everything to find your favourites. The dishes are all very meaty and hearty which I guess might reflect the colder climate of Poland. On a winters day over here it made for a very filling meal!The dumplings were lovely and definitely recommended and the fried breaded pork was a very popular choice. If you have never tried this type of cuisine then I recommend. Don't expect complex dishes but if you want simple and tasty then they do a great choice.

I'm polish so its easy for me to check if the food in polish restaurant here in the UK tastes like real polish home made food and it almost does apart from breaded pork escalope that tasted weird... like they would keep it in the freezer and the straight out to the deep frier ... but meat balls were delicious, salads really good, mashed beetroot and bigos ...mmmm really liked it. I went there with my friends to give them a bit of Poland to taste and they really liked it so if you want to try some good polish food - I really can recommend this restaurant. I would just avoid that pork escalope and instead od it take breaded chicken breast escalope - should taste way better !

My wife visited for lunch with her friends and they all chose the buffet lunch and my wife chose to bring some home for me as I was looking after our baby girl. Whilst the buffet food was good (as all Polish food is), it was charged at £1.19 per 100 grams. My small take out portions came to over £13 which is far too expensive for traditional Polish food. This review would have been 4 stars if it were not for the high cost of the traditional food.

I haven't been to a Polish restaurant before and our friend, who is Polish, recommended this restaurant on a night out. The decor was not to my liking and it was in the basement and I felt it was a bit dark. Seated opposite the buffet table made my face hot but all this did n't bother me when I am with my friends and we had a plenty to talk about. The food was tasty and filling. It's good value for money and my advice is to fill your plate up first time and not go for seconds as it works out more money (the weight of the plate regardless of the little portions). The dumplings were a hit and I enjoyed the ribs, sauerkraut and beetroot and the Polish beer. The staff ran it efficiently and food was topped up often. We would come back.

We arrives at about 7:50 on Sunday evening not knowing two keys bits of information. The first was they close at 8:00 on a Sunday evening and secondly that they only have a buffett at the weekends.Despite being close to closing they were very accommodating suggesting we could visit the buffet then take our food upstairs into the wine bar to eat it. We did this with a waiter following us upstairs with our drinks. The price was very fair.The buffet was a mix of meats, vegetables etc, with the cost being based on the weight of food selected as indicated by the electronic scales at the end of the buffet. I enjoyed some pork meat balls in a mushroom sauce and some beef goulash too. Both were great tasting, though not surprisingly the veg were past their best.Next time we’re in Bournemouth we’ll make sure we get their sooner!

Eaten here several times and never disappointed. The service is always quick and polite. Food is mainly Polish (unsurprisingly) which means its simple, wholesome and filling. Prices and portions excellent. If you are not Polish then give it a go! If you are Polish you have probably already eaten there.

Great no thrills basement restaurant that serves big plates of traditional polish home cooked food, Sunday is a wide spread of buffet that is paid by weight, 99p per 100 grams, so you get a decent meal cheaply, go there often with the kids..

One of the brightest spots in the area. Delicious homemade food, friendly staff and great atmosphere. Tired of italian/chinese/indian/thai cuisine? Me to! I think it's a high time to try sth. different. As for dishes- i love dumplings and "golonka" (huuuuge!) but they also serve lovely soups i.e. "zurek" with traditional polish sausage and egg. If you like to test more than just one main course- pop in during weekend when they have this buffet thing (you pay 99pence for 100grams of food) so you can mix-and-match your perfect lunch.Make sure you order some polish lagers (lech!, perla!), and speaking bout liquors- did you know that vodka is actually polish invention? They serve crazy "herbs vodka-sprite-cucumber(yes!)-lemon-drink" which is pretty delicious. Grab your friends/fam and give them a shot.

If you are looking for traditional Polish food that is the place where you can safely go. The selection in menu is excellent and in both languages giving you opportunity to try famous pierogi, placki ziemniaczane, kotlet schabowy, kotlet mielony or bigos. During the weekends they have buffet with a different menu, so you can try a bit of everything. It might be quite busy during the day though. The prices are very affordable and the portions have good size, so it is definitely worth the money. They are selling Polish beers too, so you can enjoy a bit of Lech, Zywiec, Warka or Tyskie with your meal. There is no problem with take away too.You pay at the counter at the end of your meal, so do not wait for the bill at the table. They are also supporting events like Christening, birthdays etc. with the food while the party is upstairs. Strongly recommended.

I have been here several times now and the food has been mouth watering delicious every time! The staff are very friendly and welcoming every time I go here. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the size of the portion. Everything right down to the decor and the atmosphere is just lovely. Would highly recommend every time.

As everyone has mentioned you get very big portions which is great. It used to be a bit cheaper but some, of the prices have just gone up, but is still good value for money. I have never had a bad meal here and have been over 20 times. Don't expect gourmet food and you will not be disappointed. For anyone looking for a large "home cooked" style meal this place is highly recommended.

As I commute to Bournemouth by train, this place (downstairs from Downes Bar) is very handy, being on my route from work to the station. I regularly stop at Downes for a drink on my way home, and often call in at lunchtime to enjoy lunch. The meals are excellent quality, with large portions at extremely reasonable prices. The food is not all Polish, and both Polish and English dishes are highly recommended. Give it a go.

This place used to be great for casual dinner for all family. Everyone used to love it. Went yesterday evening and was disappointed that only the Buffet style was available. We stayed anyway as we had no other dinner plans. Food was not great, lots of the dishes were cold and dried out. Potato pancakes were cold and chewy. Salads were nice but didn't help improve the whole experience. Really hoping the owners do check the reviews, would love this place to go back the way it used to be and serve dinners a la carte on Saturdays and Sundays. Buffet is ok for lunch but not dinner and it needs to be fresh. While I'm reviewing....less TV, it doesn't help the atmosphere.

The portions are massive and the prices are low. I loved every single thing I tried. We usually go for the Sunday Buffet style meal. You pick what you want and it's £0.99 / 100g. I love the Polish salad, the pork loins in breadcrumbs.. the hock. YUM! Can't get enough of this place. :)

Love this place. Good home cooked food which always taste great. Their prices are very reasonable and the service was first rate. Each meal come with a side of potatoes(or chips/potato wadges) and cabbage/green salad. The portions are massive so make sure you come hungry. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, especially try Roast Pork!ROAST PORK IN RICH GRAVY

The Full Plate is in the basement of a wine bar - look for the stairs down. It's a large room tastefully decorated with photos of Poland and pretty little tables with red tablecloths. A big TV was quietly on with Polish news showing.The food was classic Polish, well presented and tasty. The name describes the portion size but at a very reasonable price. Ou biggest disappointment was that it was virtually empty - maybe their buffet evening on a Sunday packs the place out?If we lived nearby we'd certainly go back again.

Today 15.09.2024 we served lunch, a positive madness, a special taste and flavor thanks to the cook Sorina and I don't know what to call her who raised culinary professionalism to the level of ART, according to the saying, the man sanctifies the place" !!! I don't think there is (or I don't know) even though I visited restaurants in Dorset, Wilthshire, Cornwall, London, etc., a 5-star chef like Sorina. If you want to enjoy a culinary enchantment, don't hesitate to visit Roxi Bistro Bar. Certainly Sorina can have Michelin stars, she is a culinary wizard. The service provided by Denis and Denisa was exceptional, prompt, fast and efficient together with a natural smile (note NOT professional), bravo to the staff composed of the three mentioned above under the careful guidance of Roxana, the owner of the restaurant. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Last but not least, I recommend the desserts from this restaurant (especially the papanasi). It was a special culinary experience in the true sense of the word. Signed: S. Tigu

Recommended by a friend, so I wanted to try it for dinner. I’ve tried calling them dozens of times from two different phones but received no answer at all. No matter how busy a restaurant is, answering the phone when someone is calling for over an hour is essential in my opinion...

I took my girlfriend out to Neo for her birthday, and it was a truly splendid experience. From the start, the service was professional and attentive, making us feel welcome. I had a passion fruit martini, and she had a lychee bloom—both were exceptional. We started with the cheese soufflé, which was light and flavorful, and then each enjoyed the surf and turf, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. To top it off, my girlfriend was surprised with a beautifully crafted birthday dessert plate. We were both blown away by Neo, from the service to the food and cocktails. It’s a must-visit in Bournemouth!
