The best restaurants serving French food in West Dorset South West

16 of us were here for afternoon tea today, the food was amazing, the staff so friendly and helpful and the service top 10, thank you Yalbury Cottage

Fantastic coffee and the mega breakfast sarnie is absolutely terrific,! Ollie, Jess, Will and the whole team are the best !

It was a treat to come here to celebrate my parents' wedding anniversary in our bubble. Chris made us very welcome from the start, and her warmth really added to the experience, The food is excellent (not surprising given the AA Rosette awarded in the first couple of months of opening), and of course the venue of Judge Jeffreys's courtroom is special. I'm already looking forward to coming back, whether for a full meal or coffee and cake. And the basil ice cream....

Seeing the 'A' board outside I spotted duck eggs on toast with black pudding and a date and apricot sauce. Sounded wonderful. What I actually got one egg on toast, not eggs, with black pudding and a dollop of brown sauce. Now maybe brown sauce has date and apricot in it but that's not what most people would expect. Rather disappointing. Having said that the people are very pleasant, the place itself fine, although prices a bit high. This café good be a gem in the heart of town with better advertising, and the new chef that's apparently coming. So keep an eye on it.
