The best restaurants serving British food in Chesil Bank West Dorset South West

Welcomed with a cream tea and some chatter. Lovely room with large bed and shower. Great breakfast on request . Eggs.Yogurt.Serials. Full English if you want . Very central location.Sue and Nigel couldn't do more for us.

We have visited the Abbey House a few years ago and drive especially with a detour to revisit. Since my wife uses a wheelchair I asked to be seated on the lawns just a few steps from the terrace to make an accessible place available (we had been seated there during our prvfious visit). The waiter answered: we only put tables there duiding a wedding. So no other option for us then just leave the place since which is NOT accesible for a wheelchair. We were very disappionted and felt unwelcomed.

Lovely pub, nice garden and good drink selection. I would have given more stars if weren’t for the unreasonable portion of ch We bought 2 portions of cheesy chips for £6 each. Each bowl had 7 chips in. Totally unsure how anyone thinks this is acceptable to serve.

Unwelcoming. Overpriced. Bread £4.50 and dry. Sausage roll, clearly gave us the smallest one and it was bland. Would not recommend and won't be back even though local.

Lovely setting, lovely staff. Homemade tomato soup was very peppery - so much so that I couldn’t taste the tomatoes. Bread roll was ok. Hubby had vegan pasty which he really enjoyed. Shared a fruit scone which was not nice. There was a hint of vanilla (unnecessary) and an underlying taste which was horrible. I couldn’t finish mine.

Went for a belated Mother’s Day gift over the Easter weekend for an afternoon tea with my son which has become a bit of a tradition . Of the past 4 venues tried this is definitely the most expensive and worse. Sandwiches which had clearly been made earlier and kept in the fridge making them dry. Poor quality fillings. Warm scones that had been pinged in the microwave and dry when ou came to eat them. Jam which was of a super saver quality and not a conserve which you would expect. Tasteless and no fruit pieces in it. Caramel tart had soft pastry. Coffee type eclair with a gloopy filling. To top it all a service charge was added which was not clearly pointed out. I felt sorry for my son who had organised this trip but the good thing is that I’m sure it won’t take much looking locally to find a better venue next year. Avoid unless you want to pay high prices for poor food. I would have been happier sitting on the beach eating a meal deal !

Lovely place! Clearly an important community hub based on how many locals you see.

Staff were lovely, unfortunately the food did not live up to expectations.

Had a lovely mug of tea and a delicious homemade Belgian white chocolate and marshmallow tiffin. The setting is very colonial ( is that word allowed). The staff seem tired.

Went there with my family for a drink and ordered fish and chips to be shared as we already had our lunch but still spent around 50 pound .we ask a rude lady for extra cutlery she very aggressive said that you are paying for 2 but feeding 4 mouth and I will have extra washing to do ...never heard anything like that. She even took our plates away while we were still eating avoid avoid avoid.
