The best restaurants serving British food in Town Centre Christchurch South West

I organised my daughter’s baby shower here and was so pleased with the outcome. There were 28 of us and we were looked after so well by the team! The decor was just how I wanted it to be and the food including vegan and gluten free, varied and very good! MAW is the perfect place to hold a small function and I cannot recommend it enough. Thank you so much! xxx

Fantastic hosts! Had a brilliant birthday evening with great food, cocktails and live music. Love the cosy atmoshere too. Thanks!

Wednesday was 2 burgers for 1. Great burgers. Friendly guy serving us. Atmosphere quiet but nice.

We had lunch with two friends who had a £50 voucher for the restaurant so we all decided on the 3 course set menu with each of us having different dishes. Nicola gave us excellent service and each dish was beautifully presented BUT we all found the dishes very bland. Maybe the restaurant caters for the demographic in Christchurch that does not like too tasty food. We cannot fault the atmosphere, view and service - just wish the food had more flavour.

A great locations and a nice looking restaurant and bar but it fails to deliver. Ages waiting to be served a cocktail was followed by a quite average meal. Very expensive Tempura Prawns were more like average size prawns in batter. The sort you'd buy in a bag from a supermarket frozen aisle. The Steak Frites was an average small chewy rump steak - need a lesson from Cote to see the sort of steak this should be (wide and thin). The white wine was ok, the standard red almost undrinkable. Service was pleasant but there is no reason to return.

A lovely casual bar with good food

This is genuinely the best kebab I have ever had , cooked with passion nobody can top this place , thank you so healthy and tastes like you love what you do

Absolutely awful place. I tried booking a bottomless brunch but could not get hold of them at all, it was almost like they blocked my number. They hadn't organised anything, we had no menu, no pre orders and they wouldn't have even received the deposit if I hadn't gone down there myself. We ended up asking for the deposit back because we no longer had a booking due to their terrible organisation. Deposit refund was refused and they held no accountability despite being unable to provide any food. I would strongly advise avoiding this place at all costs.

We called in for a breakfast on a weekend morning and they were very good to seat us all, 6 and a pushchair . A nice table and a great vibe. All the staff were very attentive and friendly too. The atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming. We all ordered a breakfast and drinks. The Full English was “warm” and really just mediocre. Bacon was very tough too. .

A lovely find in Christchurch, which is not short of places to eat. Extensive menu, huge jacket potato, clean and lovely friendly staff. I shall be returning here the next time I visit the area.

We are on holiday and fancied some chips we had scampi and chips and pie and chips and the chips were disgusting they were over cooked and tasted like they had been cooked an hour ago nearly twenty pounds wasted it all went straight in the bin 🤮

Amazing, roast dinner excellent, staff very attentive and knowledge, live music added bonus so good , clean , wheel chair accessibility

Service was terrible, had to ask twice to get outside table cleaned and then had to do it myself. Only half our order arrived and after asking twice the kitchen staff and waiting staff could be heard shouting about it. Very uncomfortable. No apologies offered. The one point was for the childrens fish and chips which was very nice even though the waitress huffed and puffed because my 5 year old grandson took 15 seconds to choose beans or peas then changed his mind which apparently warranted a roll of her eyes. We live local so know better value and service is available.
