We went with a large group of diners. Always tricky to serve a choice of menu to a large number of guests. The food was pretty spot on. Very tasty. Very nicely cooked and presented. My issue is with a large group a table by table approach is better than one that meant your fellow diners on your table had practically finished their course as yours arrived. My experience was made more embarrassing by saying to a waitress we were still needing one more plate ( which I thought they had finished serving as she was stood in the room not bringing plates out ) to be told that they hadn’t finished service and to give them a chance. I obviously apologised as I thought they had. But most of the diners had finished their course before the last plate was served. I felt very embarrassed. Maybe a table by table approach would of caused less confusion

Looking for a fish restaurant in the area we decided on this place. Whitebait was lovely and the see bass was one of the best ever. 4 different starters and 3 different mains and all delicious. A couple of starters and 4 different desserts. No weak points. The service was very efficient and friendly without being pushy. A great place.

What a lovely traditional independently run pub. We are in the bar in the older thatched part, it felt like a proper old fashioned country pub, simply furnished, friendly staff. The food was great. We both chose liver: a huge portion with creamy mash and fresh veg, very nicely cooked. Proper coffee and tea in a proper pot.

Meat overcooked and dry. However the most unbelievable thing was being asked to move tables whilst we were half way through eating our dessert!! If I’d had wanted to eat whilst walking about I’d have eaten at home.

Good quality food in nice surroundings but beware! How to erode your customer base by using a parasitic car park company. We were regulars to this pub. They have sold off the carpark rights to a private car park company. If you don't put your car details in at the bar, (which you are not usually reminded to), but still eat or drink at the pub, you will be fined regardless! Great customer care 👌 Good bye.

Superbly situated at the end of Wareham Bridge this old pub has ample parking and plenty of room inside. Good selection of local beers and a fairly extensive menu. We went on a Monday so it was pretty quiet but the food was excellent and so was the service. Pate followed by three meat roast with super vegetables was a blow out for me! Great pub.

Reviewing at the table, which I don't normally do. But it's a totally amazing roast. 4 clean plates. And to finish the most amazing creme brulee and the shortbread was totally 👌 😍. Nice to see somewhere that the team members actually help each other. Not just one server, but everyone was at your service. It's very warm and inviting. Called in last minute at 3pm in the afternoon on a Sunday and plenty of tables. A little Gem. There is only one small downside. Maybe a touch more gravy. But this does not affect the 5 stars this place totally deserves.

visited the pub for the first time today despite visiting the area annually since I was born and I will definitely be back! Prices were reasonable and staff were more than happy to accommodate for food intolerances. Portions were excellent, I had the Cajun Chicken which was modified to accommodate a lactose intolerance and my partner had the steak, both were cooked beautifully and the chips were incredible. We did have a look at the desserts menu but options for dairy free were limited and we were both full so we decided to go without. The waitresses were lovely, and the young lady who took our food order was so patient and kind. My only issue is a lack of vegan mayo but i understand that demand for that may be low in such a small village and so can forgive. Overall a lovely meal and lovely service!! Thank you very much !!!!

Whenever we have been in Purbeck a meal at the King's Arms Stoborough has been a highlight. No longer. Once well known for good cuisine it now all has a deep fried mood. Their menu was over subscribed. They did not have this or that. 2 of the 3 draft ciders were unavailable, only only lamp chop, no salmon..So we did not all get our first choices. The same with the wine. We ordered a bottle of Picpoul de Pinet at £27.95. They didn't have it. So we ordered a Pinot Grigio Blush at £23.95. I didn't notice when I paid the bill but we still were charged for the Picpoul. So we were overcharged. That like the food left a sour taste in the mouth. I bet my bottom dollar that if the replacement wine had been £4 more expensive they would have charged us the extra. The white bait and the Tempura Prawns were deep fried. The crab cakes were unrecognisable as crab or seafood. They were cloaked in peppers and curry powder. I ate quarter of my portion. The cajun chicken was sub basic pub food. My wife left half of it. We did not request their dessert menu but walked into Wareham to pick a better place. €203 for 6 people badly spent. The staff are friendly but the food is nothing to be proud of. This pub has gone downhill. The food is not value for money. After 20 years of visiting it we will find a replacement which does proper cooking.

Attended lunch with the family over the weekend and had a pleasant enough meal. However, the food wasn't anything I would write home about - but it certainly wasn't bad. Unfortunately, the service left a little to be desired. No place setting was provided for my daughter, and while only 2, it seemed a little odd. Along with this, despite there being a high chair, and menus already on the table, no children's menu was offered until we were sat down and looking through thubgs. A side order was, despite being written down (what what I could see) was not put through the kitchen. This was, however, quickly remedied. When it came to dessert, my daughter's ice cream was forgotten about along with any cutlery for those having dessert. We had to go and ask for it. A minor thing, but providing ice cream in glass stemware seems like an accident waiting to happen with a 2 year old. Nothing egregious and nothing I felt needed raising with the manager at the time, but still worth noting.

This has to have been the best Sunday roast dinner I have had! The pub serves standard and large portions of all its meals. My wife had a vegan linguine meal and that was fantastic. The rest of us had the Sunday roast. Each came with a very generous portion of meat, 3 large roast spuds and parsnips. The veg was served separately with the most amazing gravy and Yorkshire pudding. You would be wise to get in there before 3pm if you are after the roast dinners as they are very popular. A great selection of beers and wines. We will absolutely be back!!! I can not recommend more highly.

If you like swimming in everyone else's urine when you do go to the toilet this is the place for you! A village pub that has been killed by a real lack of due care. Place is disgustingly filthy with sticky floors and god knows what smells. Always seems to be an attitude on the lady barmaid when she is forced to do some work and not lie on the sofa. Owners of the establishment should be really ashamed. An outsider to the village that has spent many nights in the drax it really is a shame to see it killed by incompetence and I recommend the owners should get a mop out once in a while

We were staying at South Lytchett Manor campsite and this pub was recommended by them. We ate there two nights in a row. Last night’s meal was OK but I would say that my asparagus risotto was fairly bland. Tonight’s experience was frankly shocking! Following a couple of garlic bread starters, tasty but soggy, according to my niece and nephew, it seems that the kitchen then lost out ticket. Over an hour later and after mentioning it to two members of staff our five mains did finally turn up. Our roast beef was not pink, it was brown and chewy, our roast potatoes salty. The veg served with the main were Ok and the only bit we enjoyed. Our sides of cauliflower cheese were bland and undercooked and our pigs in blanket’s completely overcooked and like bullets. It was my partners 60th and so it was incredibly disappointing. The serving staff did their best and they knew that the wait and quality of food was unacceptable and took £65 off the bill but honestly it was an awful experience. The only positive is that they seemed to be really dog friendly and for that reason I would pop in there, but only for a drink.

Having been been here a couple of years previous while on holiday at 1 of the many campisite close by and enjoyed our meal so we suggested to our friends to book a table for a group of us while spending the Easter break on the caravan sites nearby WHAT A MISTAKE The meal turned up eventually with 2 carrots that was an inch long 1 sliver of roast parsnip that was very woody the meat was so thin you could see through it (and the beef my husband had was very very slimy) the rest of the vegetables were raw I've heard of aldente but they were in a different league altogether , . We won't be recommending this venue to anyone it was the worse Subday lunch we've ever eaten and that's saying something
