The best restaurants in The Stours North Dorset South West

If Carlsberg did Cafes! Here for two nights. Excellent breakfast and delivered to the peg evening meal. Absolutely first class. Don't often eat puds but couldn't resist.

Christmas WI dinner - twenty of us arrived for our annual Christmas dinner. Fabulous setting, delicious food, served all at once, with lots of different choices, staff were attentive and very pleasant. Everyone throughly enjoyed their meal and evening. I would highly recommend. Thank you.

I was lucky enough to spend Christmas at The Ship. Both customer service and the room were of very high quality. The food was absolutely delicious and well above the standard which you would usually expect from a country inn. This was a great place to spend Christmas.

Great food, well presented and served by attentive staff. Has restored my faith in pub Sunday lunches, after a series of being presented with slabs of grey beef or uniformly brown meals smothered in thick claggy gravy by businesses obviously just happy to take the money with the least possible effort or care. We had obviously fresh, well cooked meat with a good choice of fresh vegetables. Thanks!

What a find just by chance popped in on a Sunday lunch time to find plenty of tables that were filling up fast we decided the Sunday carvery was a great idea the staff are all so friendly and happy to help what can i say about the food well the quality was amazing all cooked beautifully I would recommend this place to everyone

Lovely afternoon tea. We were looked after by Jess who was lovely. Kids were given Christmas activities and the scones were amazing.

Dropped in to Zero Waste whilst on day trip from London. Encountered light rain, and cafe looked inviting. Warm, friendly relaxed service, pleasant surroundings. Nachos and a bowl of delicious soup both served with generous portions of bread, must point out nachos was supposed to be accompanied by corn chips. Meal accompanied by a mulled wine and water. A pleasant lunch experience.

Always visit this cafe before any fishing trip, and sometimes after. Breakfast is freshly cooked, and very tasty. Love building my breakfast choice, abd believe me. A very BIG!! choice. See you soon.
