The best restaurants serving Default food in North Dorset South West

This was our second visit. Very poor service and restricted menu. Only came to ask for drinks order then, had to ask for someone to serve us. Not given teaspoons with our drinks. Other people who came in after us got served before us. Staff very disinterested and disorganised. I appreciate it was busy but, that is no excuse as there were lots of staff. When the food eventually arrived it was good. We were in the restaurant for 2 hours! Won't be visiting again.

This place needs a lot of money spent on it decor is drab Visited for a Sunday lunch carvery and quality of food was cheap and poor, quantity of meat was good but tasteless I am in my early 60s and out of 8 table's apart from a youngish couple I was the youngest to me that says it all on the appeal of this place

We had one night stay here in this amazing pub. The room was perfect. The staff were brilliant especially Amanda. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back. Suzie & Daryl

Disappointed with the pot pie can’t really call it a pie pastry sat on top of a ramekin dish with a couple of pieces of meat under and seasonal vegetables only kale. This was the light lunch £14. Customers dog sat watching us the owner sat at the bar not taking notice of what his dog was doing. This was lunch out for my birthday so disappointing.

We booked late one night to stay as we were collecting a vehicle near hotel ,we had a great reception and we were looked after like family . We were grateful for accommodating us at short notice ,we will return and were very happy to have been looked after by Barry and team ,thank you Barry , service, accommodation and breakfast was 5star and Daisy our special Bullydog.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Very pleasing experience. Great service. Friendly staff. Interesting thoughts written all over the walls.

Amazing food, portions exceeded my expectations , great local produce. Definately worth a visit plus they cater for parties which is great for family celebrations. The staff, especially Matt the manger aswell as Cam and Kerry will cater for all ypur needs and dietry restrictions. I am always made to feel welcome, a roaring open fireplace, great food and fantastic homely staff you will feel at home which completes the entire experience of dining out. Definately worth seeking out on any day.

This used to be our favourite Chinese restaurant in Blandford, but sadly no more. We ordered a half Crispy Aromatic Duck but what we got was a pile of finely chopped duck meat, certainly not shredded, with no crispness, not much aroma and very little taste. We were told that we had asked for shredded but since that option is not on the menu and we wanted the crispness of being on the bone that was nonsense.

Had a lovely meal at Charlton Inn, every time we come here, we are greeted with a friendly welcome. The menu is extensive on the choice, we chose off the specialist menu and decided to with Haddock mornay, and I had Steak with Guinness pie, which both came with chunky chips and a side of vegetables, both were excellent, and very reasonable value, the whole lot with 1.2/2 pints came to under £36.00, great service and a great pub

This one’s great restaurant and takeaway with the best in Blandford the choice of curries were superb but I’m afraid that corners have been chicken is very inferior quality now and it’s definitely gone downhill which is a shame was a regular takeaway and sit in I think they definitely need to rethink their suppliers start giving quality again

Great atmosphere, would have preferred more choice of beer. Good place, dog friendly.

Great place to eat and stay, huge thanks to Mark and breakfast gentlemen (sorry I didn't get your name) for the friendly and efficient service . Great menu plenty of choices using local sourced ingredients. Stayed in room 5 wonderful bed immaculate linen complete with fridge, fresh milk,water, tea,hot chocolate and kettle! If you're in the area give this place a visit.

The best doner meat and chips we've ever had! Thoroughly enjoyed thank you so much. Highly recommended, also lovely staff too

We made a lot of use of the bakers during our stay in the town. All the bread and pastries and pasties we bought were excellent and very fresh.

Lovely lunch, jack conviced us to try the new carbonara which was amazing, lovely staff and food is always great. Really good portion sizes 😃
