The best restaurants in Castle Purbeck South West

Sadly no longer in business, as it was a favourite of ours, doing g lovely food and coffee, with lovely staff, in a beautiful location. Corfe has lost a major attraction.

just had to pop a review on here for our experiences at Old Harry’s bar. My parents and sister were visiting for the week and we were staying very near to this ‘hidden’ gem. From the very warm welcome, to the smell of pizza and a good G&T (or 2) we spent 2 lovey evenings playing cards, chatting and relaxing. My dad enjoyed his pint. Great ambience, music to listen to but still hold a conversation in the cosy but spacious bar we felt great. Highly recommend. What an asset to Studland village

After a walk at Studland, we went to Manor Farm Tea Room hoping for lunch or at least a pot of tea, only to find it unexpectedly shut again. This is our second attempt to visit recently, both times closed! Very disappointing after reading the good reviews and looking forward to the apparently delicious food. maybe next time......

Such a gem , lovely people , Food is delicious, love my oatmilk hot chocolate & Halumi burger . Makes me smile thinking of this hidden treasure . 🙂🕉

This is the best pub in Corfe. Beautiful food, stunning old pub with great staff who were accommodating to our small family. Thanks for making our visit so special.

Very pleasant setting and the service was friendly and efficient. We only wanted coffee, which, although very good, was probably the most expensive for miles around. Other items on the menu were also not cheap. We would probably look for better value elsewhere next time.

So for years we’ve been saying that we must try Mortons. It took our gorgeous friend Rosie Thurgood starting to work here to prompt us to visit. The Sunday lunch menu is incredible. Beautifully executed food and great value. Service of course faultless.

Visited the bakery to get something for lunch while visiting Corfe Castle. So much to choose from including hot sausage rolls, pie's and pasties. Cakes all looked delicious and very reasonably priced. We bought a Pork Pie, 2 huge Cheese Straws, a Vienesse Finger, Cinnamon bun and an Eccles Cake and cost a shy over £7.....very good price. We thoroughly enjoyed everything....the pastry on the pork pie was crispy and very tasty. I wish I lived in Dorset near this bakery as I could visit regularly. Fabulous little village bakery with amazing home made goods.

We went for Christmas Dinner and it was the best we have had for a very long time. View over the golf course and nicely decorated

Corfe village is a time warp historical wonder, including this quaint cosy village pub. Lovely food, nice staff, perfect name for a fox passing by on his adventure 🦊 Will definitely come back in summer.

By far the best pub in Dorset. We have been coming here for the last 3 years and it never fails! The staff are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. The atmosphere is cosy and warm and the decor is traditional but well maintained. If you want a cosy pub/restaurant in a quaint English village, you need to try this place. The roast dinners are great too. Huge portions! It includes everything...yorkshire pudding, roasties, stuffing, loads of meat and a wide selection of vegetables with delicious gravy. It all tastes very fresh. The desserts are amazing too. The sticky toffee pudding is to die for!!! We are going again in a couple of weeks for another roast...can't wait! If you dine there over Xmas they do an amazing raclette with pulled pork and crispy chips...delicious and highly recommend! This place is definately one to add to your 'must visit' list :)

We came here for a special anniversary lunch last week and we couldn’t have chosen a nicer venue. From the warm welcome on arrival to the restaurant service itself, everything was so hospitable and the quality of the cuisine was excellent. Thank you to Sam the restaurant manager and our waitress Kate and her colleagues for all making a special occasion thoroughly enjoyable.

The staff helpfully opened the lower room indoors for those trying to avoid the wasps in the garden. We stopped for coffee and cake/cheese scone after visiting the castle as we are regular NT café visitors. It was very busy initially and I commend the cashier on her patience and cheerfulness. The coffee and cake was of the usual NT good standard, but it seemed more expensive than the other NT places we have visited. It was the most expensive coffee we had all week (perhaps ever)! Watch out for the upright stones on the pavement corner outside. They are probably an historic feature, but definitely a trip hazard.

This is the only café situated on the beachfront. They provide excellent coffee and a wide array of drinks. Next to the café, in the same building, there's a shop where you can buy various souvenirs like books, hats, and more. The café boasts a fantastic beach view and also includes restroom facilities.

This has fast become our favourite spot for a morning coffee and cake. Whether we are sea swimming, kayaking or out on the jetskis, Joe’s Cafe is our go to spot! Welcoming staff, prompt service and incredible view. They offer vegan and gluten free options and are very accommodating of dietary requirements. Be sure to check this beach cafe out. They also do a banging paella night 🍲
