The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Swanage South Purbeck South West

The cakes were (vegan) out of this world - so delicious. Some vegan cakes can be heavy, but the ones we had were perfect.

Had to travel through an antique shop up flights of stairs but this gem was hidden at the top. Opposite harry ramsdens on the corner. It is easy to walk past. Gluten free coeliac friendly cakes - I had choc and banana and it was melt in the middle ecstasy. Could also have things like chips - we all know in the community how just a portion of safe chips is everything. Prices are so cheap too. They definitely underprice themselves I felt. Also knowledge of local area for great food options :)

Hidden away. Small pub with a large welcome. Very friendly locals and decent choice of bar drinks. Recommended!

We were recommended to come here, it’s small limited seating- we’re lucky to get a seat by the window. Good quality, freshly cooked, no nonsense breakfast. What’s not to like.

We stayed in Swanage for three nights and visited the Black Swan on the first night there. It was so good we revisited on the final night of our stay. It is a popular venue so it is best to book ahead. Food selection, quality and presentation is excellent - delicious and beyond that you usually find in pubs! The staff were also very helpful and friendly.

I discovered this hidden gem last year when I travelled on the paddle steamer Waverley from Portsmouth to Swanage. The service and fare on offer were exceptional last year, so I sought it out again yesterday. To my delight, the same server, Megan, was still there and she greeted me with the warmth and friendliness I had experienced last year. She even remembered me which was heartwarming as I'd been there only once before and that a year ago. I can't recommend the establishment highly enough; the produce on offer is wonderful and if you are lucky enough to be served by the friendly and efficient Megan, you will have an experience to remember.

At last, we have been visiting Swanage for over 30 years and the globe has always been one of our pubs of choice. It's been off the radar for the last two years or so BUT it's back, thanks to the locals for taking it on as a community pub project. We have recently been back in and it's back to the friendly welcoming family friendly pub, we went in Monday 19th August 24 and full of locals which we haven't seen for a long time. Beer etc back to a choice and all well looked after, as is the big back garden. Well done Swanage community, brilliant.

We went for an evening meal and the ambience was lovely, low lights and candles (hopefully not just for Valentines). The service was really good, friendly and attentive all evening and our food was delicious. We ate a mix of food from the regular menu and the specials, all of it was hot, fresh and really tasty. The specials menu included some delicious alternatives including confit duck leg and sea bass which were presented beautifully and thoroughly enjoyed.

Food was lovely and the staff were very helpful and friendly

THE ONLY PUB GARDEN IN SWANAGE Great Food and huge range of drinks. Lovely atmosphere inside and out. Friendly staff.

Amazing food , proper Italian vibe . Recommend . Service was 10/10 Amazing taste of the food , very balanced flavour , definitely coming back here .

Beavers is one of our favourite ‘go to’ eateries on a regular basis (we are locals) for breakfasts and lunches. Beavers breakfasts are always very good and are reasonably priced. Lunches also are very good, one particular favourite is Tempura prawns with salad, delicious! Staff are very friendly, helpful and patient.

Great place for lunch or a stop off for a drink and cake... definitely recommend the Dirsrt Draught cider and the Dorset apple cake, warmed with ice cream

Best Sunday lunch I’ve had for quite some time. I’ve read some of the honking reviews on here, but I’m obviously subjective regards what I like, but what I can do is compare against food I’ve eaten elsewhere. Everything on my plate was perfect. The young chef in the back can cook. Last night he pushed out a special 3 course Burns Night supper which was fantastic (the sauce was unreal), and which I doubt no other pub in Dorset was doing. Today the lunch was cooked to perfection, fresh, hot, and very tasty. But, don’t listen to me, and don’t listen to negative tourists who expect the world, try it yourself and maybe be surprised.
