The best restaurants serving British food in Poole Town Poole South West

The best ingredients on freshly baked rolls are made in front of you by the best people. Everyone near here says the best about this shop. At busy times there may be a bit of a queue but it's well worth the wait. They now have tables so you can enjoy your food near by. The homemade carrot cake is worth a mention.

An amazing place for a cup of tea, homemade cakes and party bookings (the host is willing to be creative) from a paw patrol theme to Alice in Wonderland. The cream tea trays and buffet style food trays that are available to be delivered look delicious and all prepared fresh. Would highly recommend.

Excellent scones. Amazing friendly service. Lovely atmosphere. A must go place to experience an English tea. Hidden gem in Poole.

Nice menu, good selection, generous portions ,reasonable prices & very tasty food with friendly staff a good 1st experience & def go back

Staff were very lovely and welcoming as soon as we came in . Food was fresh and of a great quality. Toilet were clean and to a high standard

Nice breakfast, service was great, very friendly. One thing I would say is that the toilets aren't located in a good place, you have to walk into what seems to be kitchen area. Not good to have loads of people walking in there

Food was very high quality of food and had a warm feel to it. We all was very happy with all our dishes. All very fresh and lovely staff. Big complements to the kitchen as the food was unreal!

Rooms need updating,loose tap,broken shower door,toilet seat not secure.mould around the windows.stairs very steep.no free parking have to pay in multi storey.breakfast passable,check your room before staying.

Food was very dry and basic all are dishes looked re heated terrible food for the money as well.

Booked garden room for private function for 17 people. Great room and use of garden. Buffet lunch very good. Would recommend. Would just of needed a sign to say private function as people kept coming in.

We have often had takeaway fish and chips from here and no problems. Cod and Chips today was £21 for 2 portions. Lots of soggy chips and very small heavily battered fish. Will not go to Lakeside again.

Lovely traditional old pub just off the Quay with a welcoming atmosphere. Fish pie is delicious and satisfying. Good portion size with a generous amount of fish. I highly recommend this dish.

Went. Here for lunch and really enjoyed the meal, would definitely recommend and will go again thank you

Lovely pint of Tangle Foot in nice surroundings. Great staff, nice clientele, although I didn't eat there it was nicely busy with people doing so and the food looked great .. and as a couple of bonuses for me as someone just calling in for a drink, there were seats available and the pub didn't smell of food (something I dislike) All good!

We recently decided to take my Granddaughter for breakfast at Riggers. We'd been there numerous times and always enjoyed it, so we were not expecting the reception we got. I booked online and from the list of available breakfast times, I selected 10.30 and received a confirmation email saying that we look forward to welcoming you for Breakfast at 10.30am. We duly arrived at 10.30 on the dot and were told by the Front of House person that "we're closed, we stop serving at 10.30". I questioned how they could stop serving at 10.30 when I had a confirmation email saying that we had breakfast STARTING at 10.30. At this point, one of the female kitchen staff shouted "we're closed!". FoH person then said, well the buffer food is still there, help yourself and take it upstairs. We collected our food, I paid and we went upstairs. I then realised that I'd forgotten to get toast, so I went back downstairs to the toaster, only to find that the bread was being wrapped up by the same kitchen staff that had shouted earlier. I asked, politely, if I could have some bread for the toaster and the answer was "No!". I pointed out that she had the bread in her hand, but the response was, "well I'm clearing it away". I found this attitude nothing short of disgusting. On leaving, we complained to the FoH about the treatment we'd received, but no apology, simply that "we're having a meeting to discuss the opening times". Maybe the lifeboat crews accept this kind of behaviour, but it's no way to treat paying customers.
