The best restaurants serving Default food in Sherborne West West Dorset South West

I’ve been staying with friends in Sherborne, and tonight we fancied fish & chips. As this establishment took card payments I decided to order from them. Rang to check & got superb phone service from a team member, who took my order & collection time. As I ordered three cod, I was asked if I’d consider haddock. A brilliant bit of selling, so I changed my for to a haddock and didn’t regret it one bit. Upon arrival, it was continued great service & excellent customer interaction with us & existing customers. It’s so rare to find such great customer service, especially coming from London, where it can be very hit & miss. Our food was superb, freshly prepared & looked great too. Portion size was brilliant (a large chips feeds three! Well it did for us). I also ordered two pickled eggs, a wally & two sides of mushy peas (which I don’t normally eat, but tried it & was dry pleasantly surprised). The chips were not soggy in any way, & the batter on the fish was outstanding. Light & absolutely perfect; the best I’ve ever had! I would not hesitate to recommend this establishment to anyone, on so many counts, not least on service, food quality, freshness & price! When I’m back in Sherborne, I’ll be returning without question & will tell everyone about how good this place is! Many congratulations to the entire team, seen & unseen!

Don't understand the reviews or the hotel's self description. We had 5 small plates between us: duck leg - very tender,as if slow cooked, but unbelievably salty/inedible; bream - very slightly overdone, which was acceptable, but very small piece & came with kale, also incredibly salty (why was it pre-salted anyway?). Stuffed peppers, greasy & filled with a very unappetising sludge- not sure what was in it. Fourth was a dish of ''deep fried new potatoes with sea salt, truffle oil & parmesan'' - dry to the point of inedible, incredibly salty, & no noticeable truffle taste. Lastly, ''fritto di portabello fungi'', ie. slimy mushrooms,which didn't work well with the taste of tarragon, in a very heavy batter. Waitress (very nice girl) said we weren't the first to complain about the saltiness. And I should add that my partner, recently in Florence & not usually one to complain (she's a ''glass half full person'' apparently), pronounced that there was nothing authentically Italian about this quite poor food. Wine was OK, but overall, for 94 quid, the whole experience was unhealthy & depressing.

Super buzzy place with great selection of home made food, sweet and savoury. Staff seemed to be enjoying their job which is good to see. The outside courtyard is a good place to sit on a sunny day but a few more plants/ general mood setting things could make it glorious.

Genuinely the worst pub I’ve ever been too staff are rude and unfriendly and can’t pour a pint too intrested in what people think of them rather then having a good pub

Good Second Hand Bookshops are becoming rarer than the books they sell. This one is a gem and worth a pilgrimage, take in a visit to the abbey as well! On the two occasions I visited shelves were stacked floor to ceiling, others were stacked on tables awaiting sorting. A great place to browse and discover an interesting book or two or more. This bookshop is mentioned in my 1992 93 copy of Drif's Guide to the Secondhand Bookshops of the British Isles. You can also take a break from book browsing and enjoy what the small cafe has to offer.

Plush interior, immaculate cutlery, great Indian food, service great. Reasonably priced

When you are next in Sherborne, and fancy a bite, there is no better place than The Three Wishes for tasty food, served tastefully. Each time we have taken brunch the service has been welcoming, the ‘ambience’ embracing and the food? Delicious.

Consistently great coffee, very friendly service and clean surroundings. Perfect 👌

Myself and my partner come here for lunch and usually receive great service, however we have been a few time recently and have found a member of the team very abrupt verging on rude!! She looks miserable, she isn’t approachable, gives me the impression she doesn’t want to be there!

Great for a 'chain'. Sherborne Nero has lovely, friendly, efficient staff.

Good food, reasonable prices and nice staff.

Gorgeous pastries and lovely coffee. Great decor too. An excellent addition to the town centre. Loyalty scheme available for coffee purchases. Their toasted ham and cheese on sourdough is amazing and their freshly made sandwiches are excellent. One of my favourite cakes is their Bakewell. Yum!

I came to meet some friends for some drinks and thought it wise to leave my car in the car park rather than drive home after a few drinks. I came back to my car with a note threatening me to be clamped if I leave my car there again. Well no chance of that as I will not be spending my money in this s hole. What a way to promote drink driving and repeat business. Out of business by Christmas on that basis

The room was dirty with mould and dust in the corners of the windows and on the blind in the bathroom. Water marks on the bath made it look like it hadn't been cleaned at all. The outer windows don't close at all and the inner secondary glazing is old, dirty and not sound proof - every noise from the road outside is heard clearly.

A brilliant day learning the skills to make laminated dough for pastries such as croissant and pain au chocolates. Everything was explained really clearly by Steve and we had a lovely lunch tasting some of the shop made products. Lots of fun and well worth the time. Will definitely do one of the other courses soon. The final products were delicious if a little rustic but that skill will come with practice.
