The best restaurants serving British food in Lyme Regis West Dorset South West

Outstanding independent coffee/doughnut/hog roast takeaway. Welcoming people (thanks Joey & Bailey!) who were friendly and happy to chat. Coffee was delicious (freshly brewed filter), and the hog roast roll was the best I’ve had - complete with crackling. Don’t get me started on the doughnuts.

Excellent local food and great service very knowledgable and friendly staff! A memorable experience and he paired wines were a great compliment to this vey English cuisine.

Great new owners, NOTE telephone number on trip advisor is for the old owner so please don’t call it.. Shop is based conveniently in the car park with easy access. Serving hot and cold snacks drinks and must have beach essentials. Enjoy a stroll down to the town or a stroll to the beach, great location for exploring the local area.

Nestled among the kiosks, restaurants and pubs this little gem is a must for ice cream lovers. Selling some of the nicest ice cream I have had - Marshfield Farm. I opted for a waffle cone with 2 scoops, mint choc chip and honeycomb. I even shared it with my husband who loves mint choc chip! Well worth a visit, just be wary of the seagulls!

Wonderful evening, attentive and genuinely welcoming staff, beautiful venue and fabulous food. Both our mains Plaice and Crab delightful as was the Eton Mess for dessert. Service efficient but never felt rushed and food obviously cooked to order. Thank you. PS lovely to see RNLI pager being worn by front of house….

Lovely chilled out cafe in Lyme Regis, surf and skate themed decor, good coffee and a range of food.

Excellent service from Lucy. Great cream tea with generous portions of jam and cream together with warm, light scones. Very dog friendly and one of our favourite places to visit when we are in Lyme Regis. Well worth a visit, as they also offer a wide range of options and have gluten free cake!

Gem of a place, best steak ever, thought it might just have been mine but the whole family said it was the best they ever had.

Great choice of sandwiches, salads & got drinks. All freshly made with quality ingredients. Lovely owner & staff. The best crab sandwiches in Lyme Regis. Full of filling & totally lush.

Excellent toasties, pastries and coffee and a sausage treat for the dog. Lovely seating area along the promenade with fabulous sea views.

St Austell Brewery, this is not one of your best examples. Service is hit and miss, at points, really not good. The front of house staff seemed more worried about getting their own dinner over the diners. Chefs up and down to the bar consistently. Food is average at best. Be careful what you order as they may just change some of the elements of the dish and hope you don't notice!

Hotel has a good location overlooking Lyme Bay with a nice garden to relax and direct access to the beach ( although via a steep slope). Our review is based on the £345 per night, dinner, bed & breakfast charge. The hotel in our view cannot justify these prices. It looks nice inside, wooden floors everywhere and staffed by very friendly staff. Very young ones. No sign of a manager. Our room (2) overlooked Lyme Bay, average size with a very small bathroom. Duvets on our twin beds too narrow. We stayed for 2 nights. Dinner on the first night was terrible. Tough meat and a selection of fish that was hardly defrosted. Asparagus ( in October?) that were not cooked. Terrible presentation. I suggest the chef goes to the nearby Victoria Hotel in Sidmouth to see how food should be presented. The next night was slightly better. For breakfast one has to do everything oneself. Get your own tea or coffee, not forgetting to bring your cup, do your own toast not forgetting to take your tiny plate with you etc. £345 per night! Parking is charged for at £10 per night and it is still a bit of a nightmare to park. When we booked a month before we had to pay for the first night upfront and told this is not refundable; it all seems a bit calculated at the Alexandra Hotel.

after a wind blown swim in the sea we decided we wanted some comforting food and hot drinks - initially sat right on the front of the patio and the lady in charge was there in a mo with menus and a brush to wipe sand off the table top - we decided it was still to windy there, so moved back against cafe wall. Orders quickly taken - food wasn't fast, but my golly when it came it was fresh and delicious - from bacon sandwiches to american pancakes and bacon - all piping hot and full of flavour.

The Volly gets even better. A real pub, serving great beers. Staff are fantastic. Great interior with some really good food options at sensible prices, not the daft costs of the pubs down on the sea front. Well worth a visit.

Fabulous Bakery, vist today was amazing,, friendly service,, Lovely fresh Ham sarnie proper ham and bread, Scotch eggs that are the best we have ever had, (better than my homemade ones hubby said 😂 pasty hubby also loved and 2 Dorset Apple cake slices, ohhhh like you nanny makes.
