The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in East Dorset South West

I go in most days and always have a good experience in there. Whether it’s the badhand coffee, the delicious homemade cakes or the friendly and welcoming staff I always leave with a smile on my face!

When my wife was unhappy with the ham quiche (three minute pieces of ham), I mentioned it to a staff member, but she did not seem bothered. She told me to email, but after two attempts and no reply, I went in and explained to a male member of staff. He assured me that my messages would be attended to but I still heard nothing. No matter how good the food may be, the customer service is non-existent. I will not visit Le Petit Prince again.

Cantina is now under the new management of Janine, and she is providing a larger range of delicious breakfasts and lunches in this charming and well run cafe. There is outside seating if you prefer and a lovely welcoming atmosphere.

Thankyou to your staff for treating my 89 year old godmother as a "VIP" yesterday. We had the most delicious lobster in this friendly restaurant right on the beach in the sunshine at West Bay. First class food and service with attention to detail to their customers. Superb. Plus parking right outside the door. Well done. We will be back.

We visited Baskets and Blooms on Sunday with my brother and sister in law who are on holiday from Devon. We met for coffee then having looked at the menu decided to stay for lunch. My sister in law required a gluten free choice so she had a discussion with the manager. He was very helpful and understood her requirements completely which gave her confidence as she can become very poorly if cross contamination happens. The food was lovely as was the atmosphere. The manager and staff were very attentive and ensured all their customers were well looked after. We have been there for their afternoon tea and a fundraising cream tea in the past and will definitely be revisiting.

Popped in mid morning for a coffee, ended up with a delicious almond croissant to go with a latte! Really nice place to drop into, lots of delicious food and snacks to tempt you. Friendly staff, well decorated, clean and a nice ambience. Will drop in again.

Popped in for a nice coffee after a long walk, and to sit in the sun in the Minster grounds, lovely service and really nice coffee, plus we were tempted by their amazing cakes!

Says they shut at 4, came here for ice cream and some drinks at 3:40 and told they were closed 🤷🏼‍♀️

An excellent service always 👏 👌 👍

Many customers are battling to go to the toilet due to the locking system

A mixed bag really. The majority of our group had the roast which was ok, apart from the hard reheated roast potatoes, quite unpleasant. That said there was a good selection of veg, plenty of gravy and condiments. The meat, I imagine, was the pre-sliced stuff which was also just ok. The non roast dinner eaters were happy with their meals. The service was pretty good but nobody came to ask if all was OK with our meals, nor was I asked this when I paid. Such a shame as it had potential, with a few tweaks it would be good.

We arrived here around 5:30 after a busy day at Moors Valley. We were just in time to order hot food before they closed. The lady serving was nice. Value for money was fantastic, with a kids meal and drink free per adults meal. The meals came quickly and were hot and tasty, especially for the price. The tables were clean and place was bright. There are also lots of books, colouring and activities to keep kids entertained - although we didn't even get through one Mr Men book before the food arrived it was so speedy! We'd definitely visit again. It wasn't glamorous and of course can't compare to fancier places but it filled hungry tummies and saved pennies too. Can't complain!

We attended as a group of 10 for a tribute night. We had one lady who was celiac and this was noted when we pre ordered the food choices. Our food was great, she was given Pasta in her stuffed pepper. We complained and the food went away, no alternatives or a free drink was offered or a full refund. Very disappointing as she was ill the next day. very disappointing!! We did enjoy the evening and the entertainment. (Take dietary requests seriously)
