We always have lunch here when we visit Swanage and have had some lovely food. Sadly not on this occasion. We ordered crab sandwiches. Served promptly but the bread was dry and stale and the salad garnish was past it's best. Such a shame that more care wasn't the taken especially as they weren't even busy.

We visited the grove for Mother’s Day, 6 adults, 1 child. 3 x roast chicken, 2 x 8oz fillet steak, 1 children’s chicken nuggets +chips. My meal (steak) came out and looked great, although my stone wasn’t hot enough to cook my steak, onions and mushrooms, my steak although looked great, tasted horrible. £23 to only be satisfied with the chips! My wife also couldn’t eat the chicken and neither could my father Inlaw, only eating less that half there meals. I wouldn’t go back if I’d not Eaton for a month and was offered a free meal!

My wife’s aunt and cousin enthused about this pub so we decided to have lunch with them on a Thursday in November. The pub is signposted from the main road and is down a narrow lane to Chidham with passing places at intervals. The car park at the back is not so large so many visitors seem to park in the village. Virtually every table was taken which is always a good sign for mid week dining. The four of us had a variety off of dishes and my seafood tagliatelle was delicious. We were very impressed with the speed of service from the two lovely ladies and lively atmosphere of the pub. The portions are quite large so if you have a smaller appetite we would recommend their small portion menu. My wife’s cousin recommended the mussels which were not on the menu the day we visited so we must return to try them. A very enjoyable lunch catching up with old friends too.

My husband and i went to the Beckford Arms yesterday for a late lunch . We got there at 5 mins to 3 and the kitchen closed at 3pm .. When we asked if it was too late to get lunch ( we expected to be told the kitchen had closed ) we were pleasantly surprised when the we were told by a very cheerful member of staff that it would be no problem at all and we were shown straight to a table . The staff were so friendly and cheery and the food was amazing .. The pub has such a lovely atmosphere made even better by the friendly staff .. Full marks all round... such a joy to find a place like this we will definately go back ....

Four of us popped in today and we were glad we did ! Looking through the window showed it was full but a table of four had just got up so we sat in their seats :) We all had the Breakfast at £11 each. Couldn’t fault the meal at all, plenty on the plate and locally sourced. Really good selection of coffee, tea and fresh orange 🍊 juice. Highly recommended Get a seat and order at the counter. Very pleasant polite service as well. Seating outside. Well done 👏👏

We were staying in Abingdon and thought we would get a good meal here. When we arrived at 7pm it was so busy, we ordered our drinks and perused the menu. We both decided on the special soup of the day, which was French onion, and it was lovely and hot and very tasty. For mains hubby chose the sea bass, which he loved, I thought I'd have the rump steak, which was served on a bed of root vegetables, which seemed odd, the steak was cooked to perfection, but the root veg didn't belong there, in fact I gave them all to my husband. First time we have eaten here and slightly disappointed 😞 Plenty of free parking and beautiful clean ladies toilets. We will be in the area again next September and we will return

For some reason we had not been here for some time and walking through the doors on a dark and windy Halloween evening immediately wondered why not? The food choice and quality is top class. As are the friendly and very efficient staff - both in the restaurant and at the bar. While the decor and ambience is everything you could hope for in a lovely country pub, restaurant and hotel. Excellent value too. We felt welcomed and treated in a special place where the staff - front of house and kitchen - made that extra effort to ensure everyone went home with a smile on their face. Well done to all involved.

On holiday found this pub by chance. Staff were so friendly, nothing too much trouble, meal arrived quickly although they were very busy. Food was excellent, piping hot and very good value, also good portion size. Given a bell on the table to ring when ready to order, not rushed at all, although as I said they were very busy. Which in its self shows what an excellent place it was. Fully recommend it.
