The Kings Arms in West Dorset

Excellent pub,lovely accommodating landlord with an excellent personable service,highly recommended 👌

Really nice roast Sunday lunch. Generous portion of beef & good choice of approx 8 different vegetables. Roast potatoes & Yorkshire Pudding delicious too!

Unfriendly, inexperienced service.

Always a pleasure. Thank you Mat and Rob

Food was well prepared. First time in a long time had a steak properly cooked. Pork Schnitzel was good as well.

We visited the area for Easter holiday and were recommended to go to this pub. We had a great Sunday roast and also returned for an evening meal later in the week. Great for allergies, games available to play. Recommend booking table’s especially for Sunday roast.

Great food and atmosphere. Free house so plenty of choice of different drinks too.

I have been here a few times and am very happy with the service. Great young lad took our order for drinks and food. The landlord was in and out delivering meals to the more vulnerable in the community but he took time to chat with us. What a star 🌟 .

Wonderful Christmas meal, great service and atmosphere, catered for all dietary needs, will definitely be back

We were made very welcome And the fish and chips we had were good just like home cooked

Really great experience, just what you want from a good traditional pub. Lots of choice on the menu and well executed. Friendly service

Been loads of times and always impresses. Really nice pub, friendly staff, very good roast at very good price, easy access and great free Wi-Fi to top it off 5*

You won't get much better than this place

Can't fault the place, excellent food. Very warm welcome and friendly staff. They have a very good menu at good prices. Would highly recommend

We had Rob and the team cater our wedding and they did a really spectacular job. Rob worked with us first to determine what was possible, then designed a menu that would work for us, and then on the day delivered it. Would absolutely use again and recommend for other occasions too!

Really great food and good service from the staff! Good range of craft beers and well priced too! 😃😃

Really accommodating and friendly staff and a really good Sunday roast! Loads of well cooked vegetables (7 different kinds!) and generous with the meat in the large portions.

Amazing Food and service. Worth a visit

Fantastic Sunday lunch great atmosphere excellent service and not too pricey

Great atmosphere, great food, great service, great price. 👍

What a great country pub, food is some of the best around, great service and will certainly be back soon. We booked in a large group for my wife's 50th, all the meals we had from across the menu, all arrived together, were warm and well presented. The table staff were efficient, polite and accommodating to the many requests we had throughout our visit. The staff here and the whole eating out experience was absolutely spot on, my wife's 50th was completed on a high thanks to you all. Thank you so much The Kings Arms and may I wish you all the best and success for your future.

Food and service was wonderful thank you all and a very happy Christmas to you all

Lovely classic Dorset village pub. Had a lovely steak meal here. Everyone very welcoming . So pleased as we are moving to this village after looking for our dream home for over 5 years. We need to support these local businesses or risk losing gems like this forever. Can highly recommend you visit.

Very nice country pub, great food

Lovely village pub, great food and friendly staff a must when passing through.

Beer was cloudy and had to be changed twice before asking for a different ale. Barkeep not happy with that. Food so so. Waitresses pleasant. Pub itself clean and tidy but too many items for sale hanging about.

As ever, lovely meal and friendly service.

Lovely food. Homemade pub grub Good selection of beers and spirits. Very well organised and laid out.

Great village pub with good food, friendly staff and always an excellent choice of real ales.

Very well organised and safe pub environment. Staff were friendly helpful and accomodating. we split into two groups to meet regs for an after match meal on our cricket tour. Splendid occasion in a welcoming pub serving good food and fine ales

Very nice food but pint if bitter at £4.70 is a bit steep

Excellent country pub , great atmosphere, great Beer, great food , great landlords & staff , what more could you want ?

Good friendly service, great meal and made very welcome

This pub is a wonderfull place to go for lunch! The food there is very nice and is quite a reasonable price too. I highly recommend getting the garlic breaded mushrooms from the sides menu as they are very nice while waiting!

Cannot fault the pub or its staff, but sadly we were disturbed by a man who was making videos of himself for our entire 90 minute stay. Every time there was a gap in me and my partner's conversation, he would interject with a sob story strongly hinting at us giving him some money. Took the edge off our experience especially when he followed us inside.

Very good good sense of humour as all ways beer good and I should know

Good service, good food and very well priced

Great atmosphere, good beer and lovely food nuff said!!

Very friendly and clean. Thank you.

Out first outing to this lovely pub but not our last.. Great ale...Great food

Really nice pub with great beer, welcoming staff and indoor and outdoor eating areas. The number of interelated 'deals' on the menu required some explaining however the food was tasty and good value

Food and views and atmosphere was l9velu

Another good night in The Kings Arms
