The best restaurants serving Default food in East Dorset South West

Always lovely food, lovely staff and dog friendly. We come at least once a fortnight for coffee or for lunch

I had lunch recently at the Café, and was impressed. I ordered the Quiche Lorraine and a coffee, service was good (Emily was brilliant) and my drink and food arrived quickly, and was well presented!

It’s a very nice place and they are very nice people to speak to

Over an hour an half wait for delivery. No notification of it taking this long. Took 20 minutes to get through on the phone to be told sorry it’s busy tonight. I understand busy but would be good to be told that with the confirmation email at least.

We only moved to the area a few months back and have had several trips to Harlees during that time that were satisfactory. Last week, though, my wife popped in to order and collect some food on her way home. So, not pre-ordered and therefore no excuse that it had been packed and was standing waiting. Personally, I would never pre-order fish and chips because you can't guarantee how long it will have been standing when you collect. The fish itself was not bad, although we thought a bit smaller than on previous visits, but the batter on the underside was disgustingly soggy, to the extent that it remained stuck to the chips on which the fish had been placed. The chips were not great either. Guess in future I'll wait for the Tuesday night chip van for my fish & chips fix!!

They are getting a lot of bad reviews because of the parking fines for being a customer. I have just received a Parking Charge notice, stating I did not obtain a 'permit'. Why did the staff not inform me I needed one?

Pretends to put extra on the kebab and doesn't...asked for mayo and coleslaw and got neither even though he pretends to put it on. Will never use the scammers again! Terrible place😡

Lined up for 20 min to find out the oven is broken. Only 1 type of bread available

Disgusting - tables dirty no staff willing to even wipe tables asked three times still not done Staff involvement to customer service is awful are they even trained to help customers . Customers pay there wages Won’t be going again
