The best restaurants in Blackmore North Dorset South West

Highly recommend!! Delicious home cooked food, great coffee! Came in with mum and we both loved our time. Will be back!

Visited for dinner for belated birthday. Have been coming here since I was little (now 55!) and it never disappoints. Warm welcome, so nice to sit and enjoy drinks and nibbles in the comfy bar whilst choosing from the menu. Food was delicious all 3 courses. Service friendly and professional. Wine recommendation spot on. Only wish would be to bring back the dessert trolley.

A lovely little cafe but with excellent food at good reasonable prices served by friendly and jolly staff and very well situated from the main car park in Sturminster Newton (Stur) Also don't forget to buy their lovely Turkish Delight.

I brought a battered sausage and it was burnt and horrible what a waste of £2.40 It’s that bad it’s going straight in the bottom n that place should not be open selling food like that.

Friendly welcome. Yummy Mocha and good toastie. Nice light space. Clean. Good Wifi. Plenty of parking. Shared a Gluten free slice, not so nice, but that's a very personal thing as I am not gluten free, SO a positive that this is on offer.

Amazing food!! very reasonably priced, very polite and attentive staff, would highly recommend to anyone! :) I Don't understand any of the negative reviews on here at all...there a load of rubbish because the food is top notch 👌

We've had lunch here a few times in summer so decided to have dinner one evening. It was okay but nothing more than that and very expensive for the standard of cooking, especially when compared to nearby similar pubs like The White Horse or The Fiddleford Inn. Everything was as described but the absolute bare bones of it so the sirloin steak was about 30% fat and only came with one smallish mushroom and half a tomato and chips, the fillet was about half the size you would normally get and the fruit crumble amounted to 4 spoonsful for £8, and the price for our puddings was actually £2.50 more than on the online menu. You can get away with small portions if the food is imaginative and cooked to a high standard but this wasn't and we could have made the whole meal to a similar standard at home for a fifth of the price.

I was celebrating a big birthday and had 22 friends visit the village over the weekend, we all had a great time and enjoyed the music, beer and festival food. John Debbie and their small team of workers put on a wonderful show with lots of warm welcome creating a lovely atmosphere right through the 4 days. There was a good variety of music and beer, thanks for all your hard work

£13.95 for a large breakfast, doesn’t even come with black pudding or toast as that’s extra, £1.75 for a slice of black pudding, £1.50 for a slice of toast, seriously a loaf bread is £2 max for a top brand loaf, save your money and go elsewhere. £9.95 for a club sandwich. A sandwich! Noticed the children’s menu, £4 pretty much £5-£6. Doesn’t even include a drink in the price, not even a cheap glass of squash. It’s a cafe in a local “supermarket” not 4* restaurant.

Great food as always. But be aware when ordering online you pay over a pound more per dish. And a service charge. So although collected as normal cost us nearly £5 more for a couple of dishes.
