The best restaurants in Hill Forts North Dorset South West

We have visited the Bakers Arms numerous times now. Their Sunday roast is delicious. Extremely good portions at a very good price. This also applies to their regular menu. The quiz evenings on Thursdays are a joy. Plenty of chances to win something throughout the evening, and the "Bingo" afterwards is equally entertaining. Tom and Sam are most welcoming. Their commitment to their customer's enjoyment is commendable. Sharon and I have become grateful "regulars", enjoying wonderful food, a good selection of beverages, and frequent entertainment. The Bakers Arms is a typical village pub; warm, welcoming, delicious food that is extremely well priced, all provided by two wonderful Landlords. I highly recommend a visit. You will come back.

Lovely Flat White Coffee with Homemade Marmalade Cake…delicious…

Just had the Christmas roast and it was absolute perfection. I had the turkey and my good lady had the beef (which I got huge food envy over!). Portions were immense, we've all left very full and happy!!

DO NOT BOTHER!!!! 1.5 hour wait for a bacon sandwich is enough to test anybody’s patience. Refunded, walked out and had to change entire days plans. They were still taking orders at this point. Absolute joke Avoid Avoid avoid!!!

Had the most amazing Sunday lunch to celebrate a special 93rd birthday. The staff decorated specially in just the perfect window area of the pub. The atmosphere is so welcoming including kids and even the dogs! The staff and service was just excellent. Sunday lunch we all immediately opted for the Roast beef which was cooked to perfection and comes with a huge Yorkshire pudding, roasties, all your fave veggies and the best stuffing I've ever tasted! Pudding was an easy choice for most with an all time fave of Sticky Toffee Pudding but I chose the Rice Pudding with apples & homemade honeycomb.....every mouthful tasted like apple crumble, it was delicious. Coffee and birthday cake to end a wonderful lunch in a gorgeous setting which even included a quick trip to the playpark conveniently located across the street :) We will absolutely be back!!! ♡

Lovely spot for lunch, recently refurbished, no traffic noise inside despite the busy road, good car park. I think I'd probably say the staff member I interacted with was competent rather than friendly, but that was ok. Food was fantastic.

got food poisoning when i came and ate here do not recommend to anyone

Considering it's on a main road it really is very quiet. I had a great experience here ,we were greeted with a smile from the bar area shown to our rooms with friendly chat. Decorated to a high standard with some beautiful colours. Beautiful garden patio area in good order and planted with thought.

The Saxon Inn has become our favourite pub! We've enjoyed many lovely meals there, from Sunday roasts to delicious evening dishes. It’s the perfect spot to relax after a country walk, especially on sunny days when we can sit outside with our dogs and enjoy a drink or by the fire with some bar snacks. It’s always so welcoming, excellent service, and tasty food - couldn’t recommend it more!

Nice typical English pub, We enjoyed dinner and a beer and were served by an very kind waitress. The fiid was very English and good. it was not an authentic cozy old atmospheric pub, but well for just tonight.

Excellent traditional pub with tasty and well priced food. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout, especially with the two children in our group. Would highly recommend the steak and ale pudding! Will defiantly be back if we are staying in the area again.
