The best restaurants serving British food in Oakdale Poole South West

Had the best evening at the new inn, amazing environment, atmosphere, the bar staff always go above and beyond, especially Emily, so smiley, the landlord Chris runs a tight ship, and Trish the manager knows how to run the show, we had such an amazing private event in the function room, so affordable and cater for everyone, the family pub dog Tibbs is so cuddly, will absolutely be returning, must go!!!! Thank you guys!

Waited to be shown to our table (table prebooked). Waited another 10/15 minutes to be asked if we’d like a drink. Waited nearly half an hour til I got up and went to the bar to enquire where they were. Food served after about an hour. Missing salad which still never arrived after notifying the waitress. Overall, food ok but service was pretty terrible in a restaurant that was not overly busy.

As soon as I cut into the haddock I could smell that it was not fresh. A very pungent smell. My son’s haddock also had a very pungent smell. The chips had obviously been re-cooked . At a cost of £35 for the full 5 meals it can only be described as disgusting . I think that trading standards should make a visit to these premises.

My friend and I went to the cafe today for a coffee but ended up trying the red lentil soup and so glad we did, the best I've had in a very long time. Super friendly and helpful staff too. Will definitely be going back.
