We had a wonderful anniversary lunch. The sea bream and my steak were great. The pre lunch stroll on the beach made it a perfect day out.

I'm disappointed with the restaurant we visited. Although the concept and decor were great, the delivery of service was not. We waited for over an hour and a half for our main course, which we had to chase the staff for. While the fish was good, the potatoes were overcooked and chewy. They did offer to replace them, but we didn't want to wait any longer. When we received the bill, they did take the optional service charge off the bill. However, we still had to go to the desk to pay the bill as it took a while for the staff to bring the machine to settle the bill. At this point, we were the only ones left in the restaurant, so there was no excuse for the delay. Maybe it was just a bad night, but it could have been a lot better!

Decided to try this restaurant based on the spectacular reviews... Was a party of three giddy with excitement . I am not normally a person who submits negative reviews , however felt so disappointed I felt I should give my honest feedback . I ordered the cach of the day 🐟 a whole fish very bland with crushed potatoes in tower like shape , then dressed with a prickly salad leaves the ones that you cannot chew unless a farm animal...... presentation was lack lustre seems like no effort had gone into this creation ..... Really underwhelming and at £ 28.00 more high end price........ so expected something more............? the salad was so prickly I thought I had swallowed a fish bone SCARY..... such a shame as the location and ambience fabulous ...but it's not just about the venue as the food has to be the STAR ⭐......not on this occasion ...

Nice restaurant with a great concept. Some sort of confusion with our booking (we did have a screenshot of it) meant we ended up in the group carriage which wasn't great as we were a table of two (sat side by side) and it was very noisy (not the actual fault of the restaurant). The staff were amazing, very attentive and went above and beyond. The starters were a little underwhelming but the main and desert were excellent. I would go there in the future if we visit the area again.

This is a little gen, tucked away on the end of an old railway line. in West Bay. We have been here a few times now, we make the mistake of ordering the Sunday lunch "fat controller". It wasn't a mistake really but don't like wasting food, there was so much, so if you are hungry, we recommend it. There is a large range of cocktails to choose from, the food menu choice is extensive and can be viewed online, we recommend you check it out. The Sunday lunch and locals lunch, during the week is good value if you are watching the pennies.

I've been to this wonderful place around 5 times now, and it's about time I made a review. Exotic, great atmosphere, excellent staff. The whole decor takes you back in time, and sitting in the carriage on a windy evening while the carriage sways gives you that experience that you feel like you are on a train. For me, it's the full restaurant experience I want. The food itself, well, it's that good you just have to indulge yourself with 3 courses or more, and I can tell you that you will be more than satisfied. It's bigger plates of food than you expect, and the presentation and flavour are first class (no pun intended). The staff are also very attentive and catering to your needs. You never leave dissatisfied, just a full belly and a smile on your face. I'm always recommending the place to friends, and it's definitely a hit for the dating scene. 10/10

It’s rare I write a review but felt I had to after our experience. I had such high expectations after all the positive things I had heard from others. Firstly the starter was an absolute joke!! Four slices of cut salami sausage with some purée dotted around the side doesn’t quite meet the £10 price tag. Nothing on the plate was homemade so unsure why it would be on the menu in a place that class themselves as fine dining. Moving on to the mains… I had beef fillet which was underdone and so tough I could barely cut it let alone chew it. The potato was greasy and nothing had an flavour. My partner ordered the fish curry which admittedly the sauce was very nice but the fish was battered and again flavourless and greasy! It was an unusual concept to deep fry in batter and then add to a curry? We both left our meals as they were inedible. After explaining to the waiter it wasn’t up to expectations he removed the service charge??? I thought this was odd as the service was absolutely fine and it’s optional anyway. The only positive was the decor

The surreal experience of gazing at a redundant platform while sitting in a static train carriage. There is no engine, but neither is there meant to be. The walls are festooned with huge clocks, an enormous ampersand, large pieces of metal (a 4ft-tall industrial iron thing is bolted to the floor in the middle of the carriage), fluffy baubles and twinkling lights. Candleholders are large pink flamingos and figurines, and the whole effect is utterly charming.

We travelled a decent way to come to the station kitchen for a special birthday meal and were sadly left a bit disappointed. The decor is fun but we were sat at the head of the Brunel carriage and the lights were so blindingly bright and they weren’t able to turn them down. The rest of the carriage appeared to be set with much more atmospheric lighting fit for a dinner. Cocktails to begin were lovely but tended towards the sweet end. Lots of speciality cocktails available but a few more traditional would be nice. Service was friendly but slow. It was a long time to get bread. Focaccia was well made but the butter was whipped with honey which was far too sweet to start a meal. Starters were great, we had most of them on the menu across our group and all enjoyed. Moving onto mains, there were two main issues here: temperature and seasoning. Both the brill and the fillet steak were on the cool side of tepid. My brill dish was entirely under-seasoned to a fault, whereas the sirloin steak was far too salty. Also for being so close to the sea, surely more focus should be put on high quality seafood? We didn’t delve too far into the puddings but a couple of us had a classic STP, good sauce and ice cream but sponge was a bit dense. On the wine side of things we had some delicious reds and whites around the £50 mark which we thoroughly enjoyed. We have to say, even though the prices are on the menu, we were shocked at how much the bill came to. The restaurant charged high end, almost London, prices but not delivering on quality. It sadly left us with a bitter taste in our mouths.

We have visited this restaurant on 2 or 3 occasions and we have had beautifully cooked, flavoursome meals in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere every time. This restaurant has become a nostalgic favourite to us, as a couple, as every visit has been consistently enjoyable (for food and atmosphere). It is so well received to find a restaurant that is unimposing and welcoming (for dogs also in the old station building rather than in the carriages although we have eaten in both) yet does not break the bank and serves meals with such a well derived menu of interesting ingredients and flavours, without over-complicating matters. The venue is quirky, vibrant and of a 1920s, art deco design (I think). The setting is unique, being set in the the old railway station (and carriages on the old tracks) with a chef that understands flavours and hosts a good combination of meals, with the Penang Seafood curry a firm favourite. Love this place. Our favourite restaurant in Bridport and we will be back soon. In a couple of weeks actually, and we live in Hampshire. ;)

A very mixed experience. The carriage we dined in (Brunel) I think, was quirky and the theme and decor certainly different and interesting. However the menu was disappointing. Starters were tasty but a very limited choice of main courses. Although seen on line beforehand I had assumed specials etc would have complimented the choices. I hadn't expected the pizzas to be be available in our A la Carte carriage but am guessing as it's a very quiet time of year all guests were in the one carriage. However spending £38 for a beef main course for example, served alongside pizzas........that didn't feel like a "special" dining experience.Although I appreciate the fine dining and pizza style dining are probably separate in high season. It's a great venue with huge potential but perhaps needs more reasonable priced innovative dishes on the a la Carte dinner menu to sustain local revisits which really are needed during the low season. Service was odd - too much clearing whilst eating - and not up the standard expected of the main menu prices.

My partner and I attended for New Year’s Eve dinner. Lovely quirky setting. However service was really bad and my beef wellington was served to me with the beef still wrapped in plastic from the cooking process. Not much of an apology given. Ended up leaving without eating a main it was that bad an experience. Wrote them an email complaining about my experience and gave them a week to reply. Nothing. So here’s my review I guess. Wouldn’t recommend.

The prices here are comparable with London restaurants, but this is just Bridport where prices are mostly about 50% lower. That gives an expectation of attention to detail, which was sadly missing. Clearly the chef is talented, but the rest is frankly shambolic. The menus have some imaginative touches and the food is nice, but that alone does not justify these prices. Where do we start? The web site describes their beloved antique railway carriages, giving the impression we would be dining in comfortable passenger coaches as commonly used for dining on many heritage railways, but in reality they are parcels vans with random old tables and chairs inside - and no windows! Much is made of their hand-made special focaccia bread - we were given one very small piece each, which was indeed delicious but no second piece was offered and the bread plates were taken away before the starter even arrived! This seemed very mean. Soup (veloute) was nice but served with no spoons, and waiting staff swiftly disappeared! So we had to wait for someone to come back and ask for some. Then dessert spoons were brought, and left in a stack on the table, not laid. Eventually someone else came with some soup spoons, by which time we had started. Main courses arrived at different times, although we were only a group of 3. The waiting staff had little idea of how to wait table with any sort of formality, reaching over customers to serve others, and generally demonstrating a total lack of training in proper waiting etiquette. Toilets are outside at the end of the platform, basic Portaloos decorated with a vase full of dried rushes! This would have been tolerable except that being a very wet night, it was necessary to put a coat on to get to the toilet, and when you get there, there's nowhere to hang your coat! My wife complained that she had nowhere to hang or place her handbag other than on the wet, dirty floor. Not good enough! When a gent takes a lady out for what is anticipated to be an expensive meal, she gets dolled up and gets out her best accessories, not expecting to have to put a £500 handbag down on a wet floor and drape her dress coat over a sink. All of these seem like small things, but overall it demonstrates complete lack of attention to detail which is not good enough at these top-dollar prices. The place could easily be so much better if they had a good Maitre D' in charge who would deal with all these issues. As it is, I'm sorry, although the food is good, the experience is just not worth anything like the money charged.

Unfortunately not a good experience. Cost us £160 for very little food. Kids chips were £6-7 in a tiny dish and the cheese board for £7 had 6 grapes and charcoal crackers. I wanted a meal off the kids menu as the locals dishes 2 for £19 only had two options. This was frowned upon when I asked. Kids meals at £15 each is far too expensive. The added service charge of £18 was really shocking. In total we spent £160 for 4 adults, one being a kids meal and I wish we went somewhere else. A lot of the dishes were extra too, for example if you wanted the salmon as a starter that wasn’t included in the locals deal despite being listed. Save your money and go elsewhere. We booked because we wanted the pizzas but these are only served in the evening which isn’t made clear. We wanted to cancel but would have cost us £10 per head.

Well what can I say, most of us only write a review when you've had a fab meal or poor experience this is true and I'm afraid ours was poor. My brother in-law was down from Manchester loves trains and worked for many years on the Northern Bell as a waiter as second job because he loves trains. We are not snobs but all have been in the catering game for many years having fish knifes as butter knifes wasnt a good start. We all went for the locals deal £19 for two courses which only had two choices per starter and main course non-veggie and veggie. The starters were ok but the main course well we ordered corn fed chicken more like a chick. The drinks are over priced and wasn't impressed with the whole experience was more of a tourist rip off and added 12.5% service charge which was optional and we declined. This place is over rated so unless you have deep pockets or on diet give it a swerve.

Very disappointed this time. Portion sizes miniscule and the side variant of chips, 5 chunks were black and hard. Yes, I should have sent them back. The table next to us found the tiny patt of butter highly amusing, they immediately were offered more, and more bread. All we got was a tiny slither finger, which meant the tiny patt of butter was plenty. Went there a year ago and everything was great, I wonder why different this time?

Being taken out for a mystery sunday lunch turned out to be a real treat and surprise. Bridport old railway station has been converted into a restaurant kitchen and the old waiting room is now a bar with very exotic and eclectic decoration. After being escorted into one of two converted carriages both having details of their long working history we eagerly scanned the menus and opted for the Sunday roast dinner. The portions are very generous and beautifully presented which may explain why every table was full and booking essentially. A week day and kids menu are available and the drinks menu is fascinating with a good selection of non alcoholic drinks. All the food is sourced locally and couldn't be fresher. The staff and service are all very relaxed and friendly, despite the novelty of the settings this is a serious and professional establishment. We left very contented with a huge sense of nostalgia for a walk along the beach. WELL DONE 👍

A nice looking place albeit a bit kitsch in areas. Pleasant service and very kindly gave us a small card and gift for the birthday girl which was kind.

We stopped here for a Sunday roast, we ate in the sheltered outdoor area as we had two dogs with us. Staff were very accommodating and even brought out some dog biscuits for us. We had all three meats between the three of us, the pork and chicken were lovely but the beef quite tough though well cooked. We found some of the vegetables to be a little too al dente and the roast potatoes and meat were quite hard to cut with the knives provided. The cauliflower cheese was lovely. We also had the panna cotta which was absolutely wonderful. Good selection of drinks to choose from. For the price of the mains we were a little disappointed.

Ate in The George in West Bay two nights later and the food was better and a fraction of the price

What a unique experience! The decor is full maximalist! The service was friendly and helpful. The food was the main pull - cooked to perfection and tasted divine! A great spot for a special birthday.

Defo the best, lightest freshest Oatcakes I've ever had (RIP Cairn's). I moved away from the area over a decade ago and their boxes of fresh oaty disks are always a payday go to.

The food was delicious especially the cheese board! Sitting in the train carriage definitely made the experience better, it had a great vibe to the experience. The staff were so friendly and professional. Would definitely go again.

Excellent food and good service. Would recommend this was 3 years ago Went recently and was very poor food - served Luke warm. Happy to pay high prices but this meal underwhelmed. Sure the restaurant is excellent though and we just got unlucky. Staff were great as always

We had an absolutely fantastic evening last night. From the moment we walked up to the lit station and carriages to saying goodbye to our waitress, it couldn't have been better. The food was excellent, especially the lamb and desserts. There was also a lovely touch of a birthday card and small cake with candle for my partner. Definitely recommend and well definitely be back if we're down this way again.

Fantastic venue. Great food & service. It is the old Railway station. We ate in a railway carriage, wonderfully decorated, and every aspect of my wife's 60th birthday was catered for by wonderful service and ambience. The food was absolutely fantastic, the staff were brilliant. We should call Michael Portillo and tell him this is a railway journey he should make, which was the only sadness of the day for me that a wonderful railway and station was lost, but its spirit lives on and more.

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
