The best restaurants in East Dorset South West

We arrived here around 5:30 after a busy day at Moors Valley. We were just in time to order hot food before they closed. The lady serving was nice. Value for money was fantastic, with a kids meal and drink free per adults meal. The meals came quickly and were hot and tasty, especially for the price. The tables were clean and place was bright. There are also lots of books, colouring and activities to keep kids entertained - although we didn't even get through one Mr Men book before the food arrived it was so speedy! We'd definitely visit again. It wasn't glamorous and of course can't compare to fancier places but it filled hungry tummies and saved pennies too. Can't complain!

Very welcoming pub , real fire was very warming , staff very welcoming , food excellent ( curry night ) , drink great price

Been using this takeaway for 10 plus years. So thought I should review! Consistently delicious. Thank you Champagne. ☺️

We attended as a group of 10 for a tribute night. We had one lady who was celiac and this was noted when we pre ordered the food choices. Our food was great, she was given Pasta in her stuffed pepper. We complained and the food went away, no alternatives or a free drink was offered or a full refund. Very disappointing as she was ill the next day. very disappointing!! We did enjoy the evening and the entertainment. (Take dietary requests seriously)

Out for a walk and doing a recce for Sunday lunch with family. Walked in the pub and was greeted with the words "Sorry dogs not welcome". I haven't visited this pub for a few years, but never felt so unwelcome. Will go to The Old Thatch, Barley Mow or The Horns where I will be welcome.

Over the years we've tried almost everything on their menu, and it's always excellent. Fresh ingredients, ready on time, and served with a friendly smile from the staff.

Ordered through just eat didn't deliver my food claimed my nwhbior shot them with a air rife 😂😂 never gonna order again what a joke

We ordered fish and chips on line for 6.15pm pick up - went to pick up, socially distancing in queue and on time collected - absolutely lovely ! Made a good evening excellent! Thank you!

2 stars just for the nice guy that served me as its a new business and could tell he was trying hard but the portions are small, the price doesn't reflect this. The vegetarian sausage was so disgusting I took one bite and put it in the bin, tasted like cat food! Not a good experience unfortunately which is a shame.

My favourite coffee delivered hot and delicious :-)

We were booked in at 2.45 in the afternoon and got there to be told there's an hour wait for the meal, they took in passer-bys and as they have small kitchen, they couldn't cope, we left and went elsewhere, after emailing them we were told that" You book the table" and Not the meal, which means it's doesn't matter to them how long you have to wait for your meal. we have taken them off our regular slot. never again!!

You cannot fault this place for lunchtime value & drinks. We were meeting up with other geocachers and we all had the 2/3 course lunch. They were quite busy and we all had a good chat.

Stayed at the Horton inn with my children. We had the family room that was spotless and anything we needed wasn’t an issue. Clean tidy, with enough room for three children. Food was amazing. Pork belly started. Wow! Every need was catered too. The personal touches in the room were very welcome and enjoyed. Staff, hard working, attentive and kind. Cannot wait to come back again

Excellent breakfast menu, food and service. Staff were so helpful and very attentive. Great for kids and dogs too. Thank you.

Went into the hut to have breakfast but had to walk out for the smell of stale fat from the kitchen and they had not started yet was sickening, how anyone can sit in there with that smell is beyond me and pay top end prices. We left and walked down the hill and went past the back of the kitchen and had to hold our breath until we got passed it
