The best restaurants in East Dorset South West

Such a fabulous venue for a relaxed social evening with friends and family, lovely food, great staff, fine wines and always a good atmosphere

What a fab place for lunch! The volunteers made me a special panini to cater for dairy-free. They helped me with my babies feed heating. Bright, clean, comfortable with plenty of space. Very good prices. All round, a real treat. Thank you.

Adecuada inicio - grub formulada en su mejor. Era un servicio realmente bueno, una persona de nuestro grupo es alérgica al gluten. Después de mencionar a Mike todos estábamos completamente atendidos y muy feliz! La alternativa verdadera ventaja sobre la opción libre de gluten. Seguro que volveremos, delicioso

Everything here tastes amazing: the bread, the brownies , pizza, flatbreads, doughnuts… We wouldn’t go to any other bakery.

Found by chance as we were looking for a coffee stop. Very good coffee. Yummy looking Homemade cakes and scones (the homemade sausage roll looked yummy too and almost as large as Cornish pasty). Highly recommend a visit.

Had a takeaway. Chips were absolutely delicious, would order just for chips alone!! My other half and the kids havehad pizzas and cheesy garlic bread, all very nice, will be ordering again

Best coffee in town nothing compared to some expensive coffees we have in other cafes, amazing food and friendly staff. We went there for lunch and there was a big choice of food which was served quickly and tasted amazing.

Omg. The best breakfast I've had for years. Eggs cooked to perfection. Great menu. Lots of choice. The cafe is extremely clean. Staff friendly and welcoming.

We have used sorrels several times including for our wedding and every time they have hit the spot with top notch food and service. we have now had our second 3 course delicious meal delivered to us by sorrels during these tough times along with several of our neighbours (at their own homes) last night we had a great evening, beautiful garlic prawns to start, the most delicious lamb shank with filled potato skins, green beans and veg followed by lemon posset with homemade shortbread. Our neighbours join in having food delivered to their door all safely and following the measures needed, and we just dish up the piping hot food, enjoy and leave the boxes and bits on our doorstep for sorrels to pick back up the next day. It’s like having restaurant food at home where you feel safe. Thanks again guys look forward to the next meal

Discovered here in october - really good coffee, great cakes and a friendly welcome. I came in today and it was very busy with just 1 staff member - she was brilliant and managed very well 👌 xxx

My wife and I went here on 5th. We chose the BBQ from the extensive menu. The BBQ was awesome and cooked in full view by mine host The Hoff. After the meal, during coffee The Hoff gave us brandy and malt whisky on the house. A truly awesome experience!

I was fortunate as the much maligned “Grumpy “ landlord was in fine form & most convivial. The hospitality was first rate, the premises excellent with good beer & even the guard-dog demanded attention & a belly rub. I would thoroughly recommend this venue. Only negative was the entertainment; England v Scotland which was pants !

We visited the Hub for a 60th birthday party and found it extremely well laid out with good facilities and very helpful staff.The party and disco was held in a large room to the right of the main entrance.Drinks were purchased at the bar further into the building just a few yards from the party venue which was very convenient while prices were comparable or better than pub prices which was a nice surprise.Not only was the party venue uncramped and well equipped with tables and chairs but there was a further large seating near the bar for those wanting to take a breather from proceedings.The toilets were very well kept and very clean and overall presentation of the Hub contributed towards making the evening a big success. A very good venue.

Once again we had the most amazing afternoon tea. The cakes were sumptuous and the scones the best we’ve ever had. Liz is an amazing host. We will definitely be back. Thank you Liz.
