The best restaurants serving British food in Weymouth and Portland South West

Stayed in Weymouth for a few days , so thought we would try a local cafe, we were very disappointed in the customer service, the man who worked in the cafe was very rude! me and my partner swapped tables as there was a better table that had become available by the window, the man said that we can't sit there as he has to clean it first we said that we don't mind sitting there whilst he cleans it, he became annoyed and said to sit back at the other table and that he now has to clean two tables and menus because we had touched the menus on the previous table we sat at which slows him down. We can't comment if the drinks were nice as we left before we had ordered as he was so disrespectful he should not be working with the public.

The Lady really makes you feel welcome. The food is all homemade. There are plenty of tables. There is plenty of choice on the menu. The price is good.

Friendly staff nice food cosy surroundings snack out on a rainy day And lovely people to speak to lovely decorations in the cafe

Amazing friendly service really enjoyed our visit - the quality of the food is hands down the best lunch and / or cake this side of the harbour all fresh and homemade much better than any big chain pubs nearby! And I have been converted 47 years old and always refused to try bread pudding!!! But I have now, and I can safely say Paula's bread pudding is the bestest bread pudding I have had in my life !! Will defo be back for more soon Thanks guys

Amazing roast delivered to the door. Great quality food (Beef was amazing!) and veg and good value for money for sure. Will definitely do this again! Thank you.

Beautiful meal today yet again at the Avenue in Weymouth Excellent service staff were friendly and helpful food was exceptional Cannot wait for our next visit

Four of us wined and dined. Superb, recommend for couples. Lots of choice. Efficient, friendly service as one would expect.

I take black coffee and as it’s always a bit strong for me I ask for extra hot water The owner wanted to charge me for the extra hot water really? Shame as I’m local but won’t be returning

Whilst staying at the hotel we used this bar every night. Great selection of drinks, friendly staff, comfortable seating. Friendly atmosphere

My first visit here and definitely won't be my last! Ordered from the special board I chose the New Yorker on white, I received fresh ingredients on a large white baguette filled to the brim with chicken, bacon, sweetcorn, mushrooms, bbq sauce, mayonnaise, seasoned with salt and pepper and topped with melted cheese complete perfection. This was bloody lovely well worth £6

Lovely food and great service. I'd also like to add how amazing the 2 front of house today (15/03/2025) had handled some very difficult amd extremely rude customers, they remained calm and professional throughout so well done to them both 😊

We have stayed in Abbotsbury after our wedding. We ended up coming to this pub 3 times within a few days. We loved the food and the staff was super friendly and welcoming! We recommend coming here for lunch or dinner. The lasagna and garlic bread/salad combo is to die for! So lovely. We’ve also tried fish cakes, tuna jacket potato, cod and chips, cottage pie! Everything was fresh and the cheese that they use is so delicious must be some sort of magic Dorset cheese! We couldn’t stop ordering side order of cheesy garlic bread! There is a lovely outdoor area, you can sit in the garden and the views are incredible! So much greenery and space. The interior of the pub is very vintage and there is a super cool collection of mini alcohol bottles and some photographs and decor makes you feel cosy, it’s a proper authentic English pub with tasty food.

Most unwelcoming greeting at bar. Food was not good and toilets were disgusting. Couldn’t wait to leave!

Vegetable curry like a childs portion in comparison to meat dish with not much in price difference but was very nice.

This is an absolute must visit when in Weymouth, the best bakery by far in Dorset and I have tried most. Alway visit each morning when on holiday and never been without a que. Beautiful cakes and buns made with care and love. Served with cheer. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. See you next holidays.
