The best restaurants serving British food in Purbeck South West

Great broccoli soup and scone and hot chocolate ❤️ my husband had a hot sandwich he loved as well - highly recommend in the MC 500 Scotland

Sadly no longer in business, as it was a favourite of ours, doing g lovely food and coffee, with lovely staff, in a beautiful location. Corfe has lost a major attraction.

Great breakfast and friendly service. Full English was good. Eggs benedict really nicely presented. Coffees nice with option of mugs, which is nice.

We love visiting Swanage and have found this gem of a place. We first went here in the summer and enjoyed fresh crab baguettes. The food is excellent with fresh produce and a great choice. This time we had granary baguettes freshly made with ham, salad and chutney. They were delicious. The owners are very friendly too. We will definitely be back for more. If you fancy something different from pasties or fish and chips then the Purbeck deli is the place to go.

One of the best meals I've had in a very long time. All food was lovely and generous portions, the starters (cheese souffle and salt and pepper squid) were exceptional, and the tiramisu was the best I have ever had!! Friendly, efficient service and lovely relaxed setting with fab decor. Already looking at when we can come again! Thank you so much.

We found this little tea room by a search, didn't know what it was like...very surprised, lovely scones, quite little place and very warm welcome by the staff. Get some cakes to go too! As they looked so GOOD. What a gem, we don't make a habit of leaving reviews, but we thought we should. The couple from Norfolk😉

I can’t go without adding a 5 star review. I did not eat or drink here but I did pop in to ask if my elderly mother could use their toilet. Even without dining or purchasing drinks the staff were so very friendly and accommodating and were so very very kind. Thank you so much for being so understanding and I will come back to dine with you next time I am in the area x x

This is the best pub in Corfe. Beautiful food, stunning old pub with great staff who were accommodating to our small family. Thanks for making our visit so special.

We booked for a meal for 14 for a friends 60th Birthday. Despite traffic problems and some arriving later than expected the team delivered a seamless service and went above and beyond to provide a beautiful dessert for our vegan birthday girl. I can't recommend this place highly enough

We went to the Quay Inn with our two children and another family of 4 on a Friday evening. The food and atmosphere suited us perfectly and the staff were great! They were really friendly and accommodating (we were delayed by traffic getting there). Thanks so much!

We had breakfast at Clavells with our dog and can’t rate everything highly enough. The food was delicious as was the coffee and dogs are made very welcome with a little menu of their own!

We had breakfast twice and a lunch here, it's so good. Great service, awesome range of food. Recommend the smoothies. Fantastic French toast. Worth booking ahead as it gets busy, and rightly so. Lots of nice gifty items to buy as well.

We never got to experience this cafe. We got there on 27/9/2024 having travelled specifically to eat there based on the positive reviews, I also checked their website/facebook page and there was no announcements about closing. Their page says opened till the end of September and as this was the 27th and a glorious, warm and sunny day we assumed it’d be open. I also did ring the mobile number during the morning (we were getting there for lunch) but no one picked up, I assumed they were busy. Unfortunately one of our family members suffered an injury going down to the cafe so the whole experience was tainted and hugely disappointing.

Bloody brilliant. Food and ambience superb. Service with a smile. Superb plaice and monkfish Thai curry. The desserts are all made by the chef. We had a pavlova but look forward to coming back for the chocolate torte. Very underrated restaurant of the highest echelon.

We had a Sunday Roast, exactly what we needed after a long walk on the cliffs on a cold day. The service was great, everyone super friendly, I really recommend it. I think it is a family-run business and if not, it definitely has that feel. Tasty food, local beers, good choice of desserts...
