The best restaurants serving British food in Christchurch South West

I ordered the all-day breakfast. The only thing I requested was that the egg was well done. It came out barely cooked. It was taken away, and 10 mins later came back (the same food). The egg had been cooked completely, but oddly, the yoke was now not even touching the white of the egg. Sadly now, the plateful of food was now luke warm. I sent it back. Another 10 minutes, everything came back hot (again, the same plate of food), except the baked beans were now stone cold. As the baked beans are served in a small tin cup, I suspect the egg had first time been cooked through in a microwave (hence the strange look of it) and second time everything heated up in a microwave, all except the beans. It was barely edible. I was with family and not in a position to complain again. But sadly, it was only a 1* meal.

Best thing is the view, food is pretty good as well with veggie and vegan options. 2025 still the same good view and similar menu. They also have a lot of special nights with music

We have used this restaurant for many many years and we have never been disappointed. It was very busy but we found a table for two tucked away. We didn’t have to wait too long to be served by a very helpful young lady. I had the fish and chips which was really tasty and cooked just right and not too thick batter. The chips were nice and golden brown. Hubby had gammon with egg and pineapple. He said it was very tasty. Although it was extremely busy the waitress still had time to pop back and ask if everything was ok. Always have had good meals here and always very reasonable priced. It is always tidy and clean

Says open till half 2 but doesn’t bother saying it’s either changed times or it was never open until then. Wasted money on a taxi to get here for it not to be open. Looked like a run down place anyways so we might have dodged a bullet

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

Friendly staff and reasonably priced food. Big carpark and outside areas.

Lovely lunch with my husband, easy to get a table and great service from the staff, especially Kelly who was really friendly and helpful. Good clean restaurant, good parking, nice choice of food and I even ordered a mix from the menu which was accommodated with no problem. Will definitely visit again.

Please guys can you change your coffee suppliers and organise baresta training as the coffee is always bitter where the coffee grouts are not cleaned out properly. Every time we go the food always look good but the horrible coffee let’s them down! We love the centre but now feel we have to go elsewhere to eat and drink. The public are far more aware now of good coffee with the ambulance of choice around!

We went for lunch yesterday,and the whole visit was a complete disaster. My partner had a burger which was ok. I had steak which was like shoe leather I was unable to cut through it with the steak knife and complained to a member of staff who went to the kitchen and never returned. So l complained to another member of staff who did exactly the same thing , no offer of a replacement or refund mentioned. I was so shocked to watch them going about their business and never returning to our table, we had just become invisible. Needless to say we will not be returning to this establishment again very very disappointed. And of course we refused to pay for the steak. Very bad customer service...and we have a loyalty which we won't be using at the Avon Causeway again.

Great service,attractive interior. Party of x5,everyone enjoyed their food clean plates all round and good value. Chicken main course was exceptional as was the ice cream.

Went for lunch here on a sunny Friday and the first thing to say was the incredible service by Jasmin. Asked my kids’ names and was wonderful with them. She was so friendly and attentive - couldn’t do enough for us. I had the tuna poke bowl, which was so fresh, vibrant and delicious. Ordered my boys pizzas and for £8 they were really good value. Generous size and lots of topping. My mum had fish and chips, gluten free, which she thoroughly enjoyed. Best fish she’s had in a long time. The setting is stunning, overlooking the beautiful bandstand and water. Hard to beat in summer. Felt like o was abroad!

Went in here three days on the trot so I think that tells you something! We went in here the first day arriving in Christchurch because we were starving after our journey and desperate for something to eat! We found this place so popped in. We saw they did egg and chips didn’t get any further down the menu that was it ordered waited and delicious! So we were looking for somewhere for breakfast next morning looked at their menu and they had an offer on breakfast at half price if you purchased a drink so thought give it a go and yes great. Had family going down the next day so again took them in for breakfast. We got the staff confused with the order to be honest I think they had trouble understanding our Brummie accent! LOL but all sorted again lovely food friendly staff. If I had to find one slight niggle I would say perhaps have more than one person preparing the drinks as you have quite a wait just to get your drinks so be prepared for that. But other than that it is definitely worth a visit as I said we went ready day during our stay in Christchurch we would definitely go back again when in Christchurch well worth a visit.

This used to be a regular eating place for many Christchurch diners, but quality and service had gone way down hill during last summer and we just stopped going.... ...But thanks to the enthusiastic efforts of Lucy (Maitre' d) and her staff (some in training),...

Popped in with friends for lunch. Very limited menu for veggies. Opted for the Mac & Cheese… bad move! Tasted like some sort of canned/ packet plasticky stuff tipped in a bowl then layered with thick cheese and grilled. Pretty unappetising. Such a shame as lovely location. But very cheaply produced food.

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 🤮
