The best restaurants in North Dorset South West

Excellent food freshly cooked, we had a cheese and chutney panini, salad and chips and a Happy burger, salad and chips. Large portions and delicious. Very clean rural cafe. Lovely large oat latte’s.

Sarah and Robin created a wonderful Birthday lunch for our family. Six of us sat down to a three course meal, the highlight being a fabulous Beef Wellington. Nothing was too much trouble and they were marvellous hosts. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

Fast and friendly sevice. Good honest food and reasonable price. We love coming here for breakfast or brunch.

Amazing food with really nice staff, food was ready in a timely manner and the price of food will not break the bank. Would definitely recommend

Great little addition to Shaftesbury high street. They are dog friendly too! Lovely food and pastries. Staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Excelente lugar para toda la familia, impresionantes vistas, mucho espacio de estacionamiento, limpio y ordenado, y muy amigable, la comida es impresionante, ¡una visita obligada!

Really lovely and friendly staff; lizzie and matt were very welcoming. Explained what drinks they had and made us very wonderful and tasty drinks for very reasonable prices. Just a very friendly place that goes out of it way to give fantastic service. You will not regret coming here like ourselves who had not been here before as we are new to the local area. Hope you try it yourselves!

Coffee and Cakes on A sunny day. Such a warm welcome, and nice treats. We sat outside - grateful for the Parasol. I had my own cushion, as chairs, top quality wood, is a tad hard for myself with Fibromyalgia. When I mentioned this to the Proprietor Hannah (Hope I spelt that correctly) She kindly said I could have one of the cushioned chairs from inside. Top marks for customer care. Thank you, and I will be back. Ha Ha I also managed to leave behind my cushion. It was stored safely until I could collect it. Yes CFS has Brain fog/dizzy-ness. I wish this chic Business great success.

Found this place on way to camping. Food lovely and fresh, also able to see the food being cooked. There were 2 sides to the cafe. One for those doing extreme sports so no concern about mud etc being brought through to other side of the cafe area where we were eating. Shame it was raining as from the outside seating area it was possible to see the quad bikes being used. From the car park able to see other areas were other sports were in progress. Definitely go again

This café is gorgeous, and is a lot bigger than it looks from the outside, it's like the Tardis! It's very airy and has a lovely, peaceful design scheme with a variety of tables and sofas. It is very clean and well-kept, with a light colour palette that is really relaxing. I definitely will bring my laptop and work here. I don't have a dog, but I felt very welcome, and it's lovely because you get to see so many dogs here. They clearly love it. The cakes are homemade and really delicious. There are also lots of high-quality products on sale, I actually bought some raw food for my cat here as there are a lot of products suitable for both. I genuinely think this is a lovely new space for Gillingham meetups.

Off the charts. So friendly, great fun, brill staff. This pub is off the charts. Loved it

As always, at excellent evening at The White Horse. Extremely friendly welcome, first class service and the most scrummy food . Thank you. We will be back.
