The best restaurants in Weymouth East Weymouth and Portland South West

Had lunch here before visiting Nothe Fort. Lovely little Cafe overlooking the Harbour. A really good selection of reasonably priced sandwiches, cakes and drinks.

Popped in here for a sandwich lunch and tea. The staff were very attentive and the meal was prepared quickly. Wife had Tuna and mayo (a favourite of hers) and I had Atlantic prawn sandwich. both were served with a small side salad and plain crisp. Unfortunately the Tuna sandwich had a bit of a funny taste, the tuna smelt OK so we can only think it was something in the mayo. At one point the owner came over to check if everything was ok, and whilst we did not want to make a fuss (other people on the same table) I did ask what he tuna sandwich had in it and was advised just mayo. The owner was concerned why we asked but we played it down as not not raise an issue about the food. I also tasted it and agreed that it was not right so my wife discreetly wrapped them up and threw the sandwich away. My Atlantic prawn sandwich had a lot of filling but too be honest no real taste and were smaller that shrimps I have seen and had in the past, so again a bit of a disappointment. Finally having ordered a pot of tea for 2, I was very surprised to get a tea pot the same size I have had in many other restaurants and cafe that was a pot of tea for one. It certainly was not what I consider a pot of tea for 2 like other places I have ordered from. Not a particularly good review from me for the Driftwood, but in all my reviews I am always honest and hope it will go someway to improve things, and is as it is on the day of my visit. I will re emphasise that the owner did show concern and stated that he wanted to make sure we were happy with the meal, but the area was crowded with people and did not want to draw attention to this situation. I will add that the whitebait on the next table looked excellent.

Perfect spot on a summers day to enjoy a snack whilst watching the traffic passing into and out of the harbour.

Amazing food. Highly recommend the Malaysian satay chicken dish. Arrived hot and very quickly.

New owners humble and hard working good choice of grub suitable vegan choices too

Oh wow, where do I even start. The vibe of the cafe is quaint and cozy. Stunning architecture. Staff are lovely and incredibly helpful. We first stopped in to try breakfast. We both got cappuccino with oat milk, which were absolutely perfect. My fiancee got the full vegan breakfast, and oh my gosh - stunning. The tomatoes were so bright, plump, and flavorful. Roasted veggies were also delicious. She added the scrambled tofu, and we both thought it was incredibly delicious. I got the avocado mushroom toast and added a piece of vegan sausage. I adored my toast. The mushrooms were perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. The vegan sausage had a very nice flavor, we both enjoyed it! Our next stop in was for lunch. We got nachos with bbq jackfruit and vegan cheese and a bhaji burger to share. Oh my goodness. The flavors were unreal. The burger came with the most amazing chips and some mango chutney. The burger was huge and super filling. The nachos were out of this world. The jackfruit was nicely sauced. The guac was very good, the chips were nice and crisp. The 3rd time we went, the goal was to have a small snack and waffles. We got the strawberry lemonade tea to share. We absolutely loved the flavor. It was incredibly nice. The Poutine with vegan cheese was OUT OF THIS WORLD. We can't stop thinking about it. And the waffles...oh my. They sent us to waffles heaven. The vegan ice cream was so wonderfully creamy. And the waffles were just so delicious and flavorful. We got they're signature banana waffles vegan style and ugh. Amazing. AMAZING. We will be back for more. Our most recent visit we got cappuccinos and nachos again. We tried the Quiche this time, and honestly didn't love it but the flavor was quite nice! Can't wait to come back (which we plan to on Tuesday haha)

Traditional heritage pub, in a great location, in glorious sun. Great place to visit tucked away from the harbour. A real gem.

Tartiflette and Chablis - France on a plate (and glass). Beautiful place, attentive staff and yummy food and drink. Made a brilliant brunch / lunch.

Only popped in for a coffee. Homemade cakes looked wonderful. Will look at this venue next time for full meal.

We stopped by Portland as tourists from the USA. We got a scone, slice of cake, and two coffees, and they were some of the best we’ve had in Europe! The staff were friendly and helpful too.

Family of six visited and had the most scrumptious breakfast. Will miss your friendliness and food Wishing you the most Happy Retirement

Amazing breakfast. Very good value for money. A group of us traveled to Weymouth on our motorbikes and asked the guys who drive the land train where is good. They suggested nanna moons and they were spot on.

I take black coffee and as it’s always a bit strong for me I ask for extra hot water The owner wanted to charge me for the extra hot water really? Shame as I’m local but won’t be returning

Good food for vegetarians and meat eaters. Book to avoid disappointment as it seems to be always fully booked, probably because the restaurant is quite small

Great Food, Great Prices. Wonderful Service. Super Dog friendly, even gave my dogs a treat. Nice, generous folks. Will return.
