The best restaurants in Parkstone Poole South West

Filthy rooms and broken bed - no staff to be found during our stay so emailed after. They agreed to a refund but have never sent it despite phoning and emailing many times over the weeks. Do not stay here!

We have had a Lovely evening. The food was delicious and excellent service..we will definitely be coming back. Many thanks

We visited yesterday lunchtime to find that the cafe is undergoing a renovation and therefore food and drink is being produced in a hut that has been erected on the decking. My wife and I had walked from Poole harbour so didn't want to walk back again without having lunch. We ordered 2 teas and 2 soups which arrived in medium sized paper cups and small paper cups respectively along with 2 bread "rolls" which were actually two thin 4 inch long baguettes cut in half. The fish soup was very good but when I asked for more "rolls" I was handed a box which when opened revealed one more baguette in 2 halves. I thought this was taking the P so asked for another. Hardly inspiring and for this feast we had been charged the exorbitant sum of £23! Yes, £23!!! ie £8 each for the soup and rolls and £3.50 each for the tea. I do not want to pay over the odds for the renovation - ridiculous.

Staff are ever so welcoming on arrival. Great prices on drinks & food. Customer service was excellent, served by Tom who was brilliant!

My uncle Nick flew over from Australia and took both me and my parents to this patisserie in Lilliput. My dad said he had the best latte he had ever tasted, and I think both the sausage rolls and the brownies were absolutely delicious!! I highly recommend - the food is just amazing and the atmosphere of the small patisserie is gorgeous. xx

Booked for Christmas lunch with the family looking forward to great food and service. Unfortunately the day turned into a complete disaster. Starter took over an hour, the main more than an hour and a half and the sorbet course didn’t even materialise. The quality of the food was very sub standard. Have eaten there before and had great food but this time it was really awful. A Christmas Day ruined

Was in the bar for most of the evening. Checked the bar next door and then refused reentry because one member of the party was wearing ‘sports shorts’ - despite leaving the bar 5 minutes previous with no issues. No reference on the website initially about dress code. Happy to take our custom at the start of the night and accept money then. Suddenly a change of opinion. Will leave our custom elsewhere. Poor customer service - disappointing.

In pouring rain, we dived into this little gem, more to get to somewhere dry than anything else. How lucky were we! Absolutely beautiful food, excellent service and a cafe atmosphere. What else would you want! We visited this café today for a quick lunch and couldn't believe our luck. Fresh, artisan bread used to make all the different sandwiches, the freshest and tastiest fillings. Lovely cups of Dorset Mint Tea to cap it off.

Late review- went to now “Parkstone club” to get a feel as now living in the area. With things a little different to how things were before covid-19 it was a lovely experience. Staff were friendly and helpful, full and clear guidelines in place making you feel safe within the business. There was Table service during our experience this was because of the guidelines, staff seemed happy enough, polite and even the lady chef offered us a Freshly cooked lunch. Drinks were lovely and food was Devine! We will be returning when we can. 5star*

Friendly staff, great food, reasonable prices. Found this place by just walking up the street. Would definitely eat here again.

We were served by a lovely young gentleman so friendly and polite!! Food was spot on as per.

Don't bother. Ordered at 20.05. ETA 20.45. Arrived at 22.20. Had to reheat in the microwave. Hungry, and disappointed, and no customer service from the restaurant or Deliveroo. Tried to call restaurant four times. Twice they hung up. Twice went to answer phone. Finally Deliveroo called back and refused to cancel the order or compensate.

Fantastic food and wonderful staff!

Absolutely excellent food - made a special Paneer Tikka Masala for us

Greeted by Amanda, Very warm and welcoming, Super friendly, and I have already bad anxiety she made me feel relaxed, Lovely member to this establishment,
