The King's Arms in West Dorset

Had an excellent meal, and the service felt indiviualistic, even though the staff were busy.

If you are looking for a change from the usual humdrum Prem Inn Travelodge that seem to be taking over most town centres then this exquisette steeped in history creaky floored no room the same Hotel is for you. Refurbished to an excellent standard whilst retaining the period features. Staff were very friendly and helpful from the 2 receptionists we met to the lady running the restaurant to the bar person to the excellent chef we really couldn't fault it. Our evening meal in the restaurant was delicious and breakfast the next morning cooked to order much nicer than buffet style hot foods from above mentioned hotels. Thank you to all the staff we met who couldn't do enough for us and really topped off an excellent stay.

This is a lovely venue, very atmospheric, with beautiful decor. I booked a table online to eat in the bar. On arrival we went to the bar and the girl said we were in the restaurant and to go and notify the woman at reception. We did and were told no you're in the bar, which made more sense as that is what I had booked. We sat at our table, after 20 mins waiting for our food order to be taken, I went back to the bar to ask if we had to order our food at the bar and was advised no, they would come to us! Food order was taken, two roast dinners. After 25 mins, seeing others getting their meals and desserts we asked if our order was going to be long. Meal eventually arrived and it was faultless, absolutely excellent. We again had to go back to the bar 30 mins after finishing our meal to ask for the bill. It wasn't especially busy and there were plenty of staff working, just disorganised. The bill arrived and a 10% service charge had been added, we asked for it to be removed. I always tip if the service is good but this was far from good. Unfortunately the staff really let this place down.

Had a fabulously unexpected lunch here. Haven’t been to the area before and we were both really hungry so this was a great find. Both had a club sandwich and it was so fresh and tasty. Staff were also wonderful and the whole place had a great feel

I have been a weekly visitor to the kings arms since it reopened. The hotel is fabulous - rooms lovely - food great - but without exception the staff are extraordinary - so friendly kind efficient thank you all Theresa

We enjoyed our stay at the Kings Arms, we had an issue with a light fitting in our room which was dealt with very efficiently. Breakfast was delicious and there was lots of good quality food to choose from ! We also hired the Casterbridge room for a family wake, delicious food & a great space with history attached to the space. Would thoroughly recommend.

Having eaten here several times since it opened, today will be the last time we give it a chance. We've had one lor two meals here that were not too bad. But far too many undepar meals in total. Today's being unacceptable. The manager however was very gracious in her response, appologetic and a full refund provided. Thank you. To note the bar staff, are also very friendly. Today we ordered 4 dishes, the first two to come out were battered squid with romesco sauce, the second, chicken scrumpet. Neither are complicated to get right. The squid hadn't had the membrane removed, so upon eating we were battling with the membrane which was like a long thin elastic band, which was inedible. The batter, unseasoned and flavourless. We couldn't eat it. The chicken scrumpet, upon cutting it in half to share with my husband, was and I'll go as far to say "disgusting". Half of the croquette filled with gelatinous and unrendered chicken skin with the remaining tiny bits of chicken meat in an uncooked flour based sauce (roux). Slimey, runny, no meat in it. Literally made my stomach turn. Couldn't even begin to eat it. We took it all back to the bar to show them. There was no argument as they could see the whole thing was unacceptable. Needless to say we didn't want to stay for the other two dishes. We will not be returning anytime soon. A wholly dissapointing experience.

I dont leave many reviews for things; but have been meaning to write this one for a while. Came for a Sunday roast a few weeks ago and can honestly say it was one of the nicest roasts I've ever had. We chose the Kings Arms after previously visiting a sister hotel in Shaftesbury and very much enjoying our meal there. The service was excellent, with attentive but not overbearing staff, the food is delicious and the portion sizes were great. The prices arent cheap, but i felt that i got an experience that justified the price charged. Would thoroughly recommend.

Nice lunch in the garden, in glorious sun: parmesan and chorizo chicken, with broccoli and rosemary chips; gammon egg and chips...both fine food; Lost & Grounded IPA, Cotswold gin and tonic

This is a lovely restaurant in a very nice hotel . The staff were very helpful in catering to our needs - vegetarian, gluten free and dairy free diets . The food was delicious and worth waiting for . Great ambience and style

Had read good reviews and booked for a family get together in the restaurant on a weekday lunchtime. The food was unimaginative and pretty poor.

Had a weekend booked with friends. Staff very friendly and efficient. We had the roast on the Sunday and it was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Quite a few good features but overall disappointing. The hotel is very well placed in the centre of the town with a surprisingly good car park, a nice terrace when the sun shines, and friendly helpful staff. The museum next door is a little expensive but very nice and worth the entrance price. We had a Plush room for 3 nights at £220 per night. The room was quite large, well appointed, quiet, but rather dark as the large windows looked closely out on an industrial building - it needed the supplied portable fan as it was too hot at night even in the coolish weather. The bathroom was really good with a separate bath and shower and space. We had one dinner in the hotel which was adequate but really only at a fair pub level with plenty of space in the large dining/breakfast room. Our other 2 dinners were at Dragonfly (excellent) and Cope (usual quality) - both only a 10 minute walk away. Breakfast was the real problematic issue for me. If you like a cooked breakfast every day then there are lots of choices on an a la carte menu (avoid the toast as it is thick bread with extremely solid edges). However one day is enough and alternatives are minimal. The biggest surprise was a breakfast bar buffet without any bread rolls or other bread - the first ever for me. My recommendation to the hotel would be to recommission the island in the centre of the restaurant to provide rolls/bread , butter, jams, marmalades and a toasting facility. I have to agree with other recent reviews that this is really a pub with rooms, that there some trivial but annoying issues in the restaurant with the provision of knives and the tables while perfectly clean still showed marks from previous meals.

Beautiful place. Had the most amazing Sunday Roast. Everything was cooked perfectly. The staff are great too. Would highly recommend.

Very very disappointing I expected so much better very dark and not clean the tables in the dining room were wiped down but the edges of the tables dirty seats covered in crumbs needed a really good deep clean.At breakfast there were no side plates on the table just paper napkin and and one knife and fork I don’t want to spread butter and marmalade with the same knife as eating egg and bacon the staff were happy to get more but we had to ask for everything.I really felt the at £280 per night things should have been very different very over priced it really is a pub with rooms rather than a high class hotel.Even the outside area patio the tables needed cleaning and the floor swept it was always so full of non residence in the bar etc so busy the staff were so over worked.I felt the reviews were very misleading also the pictures of the hotel.Cost a lot of money to stay at a very inferior hotel.

In was very disappointed in this hotel. It advertises as a hotel and the photographs do not depict the true picture. This hotel is a bar and resteraunt open to the public that has rooms. I accept that it is an old building but rather than having charm it is dark and very dingy along some corridors and quite frankly is not as clean as it should be. The lift between floors was exceptionally dirty and the dining room lacked attention to the cleanliness of the tables and seating between diners. The food was of good quality but the lack of attention to laying up of tables with correct amount of cutlery and plates was staggering . There were never any side plates and no second knife at breakfast to spread preserves onto toast, and there was nothing to put preserves in on the self help table. At dinner unless asked for, there was no fork given with a spoon to eat desert. The actual menu was very limited. There were some lovely people serving in the hotel but the whole place lacked proper management to lift it to the level it pertained to be. Very disappointing for the price paid.

Great place for a drink normally, not just a hotel, but do not have their version of bacardi. £5 for something that is undrinkable

Just stayed 3 nights. This hotel is so delightful that the damp cool weather of our few days stay was soon forgotten. Wonderful county town hotel ambience. Great, friendly and very helpful staff. Food is really good - I thoroughly recommrnd the beetroot lasagne and the pecorino crusted chicken. Breakfast is great as well. We'll be back!

I wasn’t sure what to expect at this hotel for dinner. The bar and restaurant are nicely decorated - a bit funky. The crab starter is a cracker! Then had the Parmesan chicken for mains - tender, tasty. Really impressed with this hotel restaurant and would recommend. Also breakfast is good and they do a great cafe latte.

Excellent hotel in Dorchester. We stayed for a family get together and had a great time. Excellent restaurant and bar. Plush rooms.

The Kings Arms appears to be a good venue to stay for a couple of days of sightseeing in the County. The web site presents it as an old but beautifully refurbished Hotel with prices to match. We paid £180 per night. The room was dowdy and the description "Gorgeous Bathroom" was far from our perception. The food service was massively slow, breakfast and the single dinner we tried there. The staff were doing their best and they were nice young people. They have been seriously let down by the management who have not installed decent processes to help them succeed, not have they made the necessary investments in the refurbishment of a nice building

We were only able to stay one night but it was a fantastic stay. The staff were friendly and efficient. We booked a comfy room and it certainly was, with a great bathroom as well. Fabulous food at dinner and breakfast and the staff were very good regarding allergens as we needed a gluten free option of which there were plenty to choose from. Would definitely visit again if back in the Dorchester area.

This is a hotel with attractive pub like character but great rooms with attention to detail (good quality coffee and tea making and fresh milk). It is an historic building so not everything is pristine but the rooms are clean and generally well maintained. Well located in the centre of Dorchester with an adjacent free car park for hotel residents. Continental breakfast was good in terms of quality and value. Did not try the cooked breakfast which was priced on an individual plate basis. Food in restaurant was ok; pub like in quality. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Good value.

Great home made pastries and good beers

We came for dinner on a Sunday evening whilst staying in Dorchester for a night. We chose this restaurant based on reviews and the fact that they serve roasts until the evening, and were not disappointed. The hotel is nicely decorated in the public areas and is elegant yet relaxed. We enjoyed a drink in the bar first, where we noticed dogs were welcomed. Many of the guests appeared to be locals. The roasts certainly lived up to the reviews - we had beef and the vegetarian option (vegan also available) and both were delicious with a good selection of vegetables. Service was attentive and friendly throughout. We would definitely return if we stay in Dorchester again, and would recommend the roast meals to anyone.

Just got home from a fabulous Sunday lunch. We all had the roast dinner which was absolutely fantastic. I can’t eat chestnuts which are in the stuffing so the chef did me up a bacon wrapped sausage one instead, which was incredibly thoughtful. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back as everything was faultless.

Hard to judge general menu as I ate vegan roast. It was absolutely the worst ever, it looked and tasted disgusting I will never return. It makes me so cross to eat vegan food out because I can do much better at home so if a chef can’t knock up a decent vegan dinner then they shouldn’t be working as a chef. I was actually temped the following Sunday to take down a roast I made and show him how it’s done. Like I said I can’t give an opinion on the rest of menu as I didn’t eat it but my friends said it was ok but they’ve had better.

Visited on a Stay & Dine 'deal', and was thoroughly impressed. The Kings Arms is located in the centre of Dorchester with parking provided. The interior of the building is lovely, with a great ambiance and character in spades. Our guestroom was lovely. It was spotlessly clean, well appointed with a lovely big shower. Everything looked new. We ate dinner & breakfast in the restaurant and it was great. The staff were all very friendly & helpful. Genuinely couldn't fault anything and looking forward to visiting again.

Fabulous restored town centre coaching inn. Can't fault it in any way, superb staff. Great food & drink. Not cheap, it doesn't claim to be!

Restaurant: Staff efficient and pleasant; food great; good atmosphere; beer very good. Hotel: Room quiet; bed comfortable; excellent welcome tray. Would recommend to anyone.

Stunning hotel in the town centre. Had one of the upscale rooms and was totally worth it. Fantastic restaurant with surprisingly wide choice if you are veggie or eat fish.

Gorgeous food lovely decor and well stocked bar, friendly staff a great pitstop on a long journey or just to sample amazing main courses which were very filling

excellent food best Sunday lunch in Dorchester

A beautiful place. The food was delicious and mostly the service was good but the lady at the bar served me a coke that had clearly run out and I was left standing quite a while trying to get somebody's attention to change it for me

The hotel itself was lovely, very nicely decorated and super comfy bed! The staff were outstanding and couldn't do enough for us from small changes to food orders and changing our room to one with a bath! Brad was was very helpful and super friendly, the breakfast was outstanding and the restaurant food was good too! Would love to come back.

Delicious Sunday lunch! 2nd time, hoped it would be as good as first & it didn’t disappoint!! Beautiful tender beef & veggies like home…..well worth visiting!

Our first time here for Sunday lunch. Perfect! Lovely warm atmosphere on a blustery Sunday afternoon. We had 3 vegan roast dinners and they were obviously cooked with skill and care - tasty, hot and beautifully presented. The Butcombe Original was superb. We'll definitely be back...

We stayed in one of the rooms at the Kings Arms and had breakfast and an evening meal. The staff were both delightful, helpful, and couldn't do enough for us. The room was wonderfully roomy and comfy with lots of lovely little additions. The breakfasts were plentiful and delicious with a wonder ful choice and the evening meal was one of the most tasty that we have had in a hotel in a long time.

There’s no doubt that this is a beautiful hotel but, we went with friends for Dinner and the staff were friendly and promptly took our order but when the meals arrived, my husband ordered the brisket, but it was too fatty and still had two pieces of string attached and the mashed potato was bland and quite sloppy, so he went hungry as he’s not one for complaining. We all ordered deserts which were ok but we we’ll probably not return for food which is a shame as it has a lovely atmosphere in the hotel.

Went with a group of friends and had the Xmas menu, at lunchtime, great choices, good quality food with friendly staff. Good selection of beers in the bar as well

We recently stayed for one night at the King’s Arms in Dorchester. The staff were extremely friendly, the place was very stylish and the food was exceptional. I would heartily recommend it to anyone.

Booked a birthday dinner with my family. When we were arrived we were greeted by friendly staff and the interior looked beautiful. But sadly our evening was ruined by the food. We ordered a combination of the chicken burger, beef burger and vegetable mousska . The food was blend with no flavour and over priced! The burger buns were dry and no seasoning on the food! We complained to the waitress who called the manager. We explained to him that the food was disappointing and tasteless. He offered to take the drinks off the bill which did not amount to much and he wanted us to return again! Unfortunately, we will not be returning as the whole experience was very disappointing. Never again !!

A great experience. Lovely surroundings, extremely polite service, piping hot food and prices exactly matching the meal. And what a meal! Our family contains an omnivore, two pescatarians, and two vegans including one gluten-free, so we're hard to please. And the King's Arms served up the very best for all of us. Stunning soups (butternut squash & coconut), succulent burger, tasty Devon crab, stunning cider-battered haddock, chips to die for (incredibly crispy and melting in the middle) - and a vegan option that was one of the best I've ever known (merguez roasted squash, smoky aubergine, yoghurt, crispy polenta, zhoug and beetroot ketchup). Even the side of sliced bread was lovely. We all walked out extremely happy.

We were staying in Dorchester. It was a cold damp evening and we were looking for somewhere to eat but because of the weather and time of year other restaurants were deserted with no atmosphere. We were glad we tried the Kings Arms. The bar seemed quite busy and there were several people in the restaurant. Food was served promptly and service was good. I didn't take a note of the staff names as 2 or 3 were involved. The restaurant was warm and cosy and food very good.

Visited for Afternoon Tea last weekend, all the team were very pleasant and attentive. The food was plentiful and nicely presented and I’m still obsessed with the meringue swans. Highly recommend a visit, excellent value for money. Only criticism would be the teapots clearly weren’t cleaned properly as they were tea stained all down the spout but as a hotel GM myself, I know it’s a difficult time for the industry and I’m sure it was a one off!

As regulars and frequent visitors of this hotel, we left feeling very sad and not wanting to return, I think we can honestly say, this was our final visit. Empty bar, yet had to get the three servers attention to serve us whilst chatting between themselves! Embarrassing, even to order food, we had again interrupt a “staff conversation” yet we were the only customers there! Sad, as we eat here 3-4 times a month and it’s always been a firm choice of ours.

A five star hotel in a beautiful part of the country. We booked this hotel for our 35th Wedding Anniversary and it did not disappoint. The Kings Arms hotel was one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in. Attention to detail in all aspects was incredible. We took our dog with us and she was made very welcome by all members of staff. We had booked one of the fancy rooms but when we arrived we were upgraded to the Plush room. A beautiful spacious bedroom. All of the staff were hard working and made sure everything was just so. All of our meals that we had ordered were cooked to perfection. We will definitely be returning for another stay very soon. If I could give 10 stars I would ⭐️

A good varied menu. Food was delicious. The staff were very polite and professional. A little slow on bringing the condiments when we already had our food but definitely a good night. Recommend

We went for Sunday lunch and it was a-maz-ing. The staff were attentive and present without it feeling like they were on top of us. The food was great, we both had the beef roast. It all tasted so good that we took our time savouring every mouthful, which then led to our food getting a little cool, but that fault is with us for taking soooo long not the restaurant. The yorkshire was quite possibly one of the biggest I have seen and had a flavour you don't often come across, more likely than not due to the fat or other ingredient they've used, I wish I had asked for their secret! I will say that this is not your average Sunday roast, this is a Sunday roast elevated. There weren't any children when we went and to be honest I don't know if the menu and atmosphere would suit a family with children any younger than mid teenagers. I wish we lived in the region so that we could make this place a regular and if we are in the area again we will certainly be booking a table.

Superb Sunday lunch, one of the tastiest vegetarian roasts I have ever eaten. Lovely selection of vegetables. All the staff were very polite friendly and welcoming. The interior is beautiful, clean and really tasteful. I can't wait to return.

Apart from a poor Sunday roast, the food was good. Staff were all particularly friendly and helpful. Room OK though not particularly well designed, but to be expected for an old period building. A pleasant experience right in the centre of Dorchester.

We live nearby and all of the staff are really friendly and lovely. They are always ready to help and the food is delicious 😋 Thanks to Bella, Brad, Jimmy, Jake, Liam and all the staff for making it enjoyable every time we visit
