The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Purbeck South West

It’s a Shame as it’s such a good location but a complete and utter rip off and so overpriced for mediocre quality products. A MrWhippy ice cream should NOT cost £7.60!!!! Scandalous! They should be ashamed!

The Red Lion used to be a bit of a locals pub but was a bit of a dive. Almost a year ago, it changed hands, and the new owners seem to have spent a lot of time and money in upgrading my prefered drinking venue in Swanage. The pub is now clean and has a good choice of beers both ales and larger etc. I don't know anything about wines as I don't drink them, but the food is great. The food has a Turkish theme to it, which always tastes great and fresh. I think they've got some sort of flame grill stove thing, but all I know is I like the food and the beers, and the pub is dog friendly..

Just visited for a drink. Friendly service.

Great location, staff and cake. But TERRIBLE coffee. (As previous visit) if you could fix this, you would make me very happy!

Nice food, pleasant atmosphere, great service. Minor observation, to my mind Bruschetta is not garlic bread with a few chopped tomatoes on the top. Other than that we had a very enjoyable meal.

Avoid this place , rip off prices , for nothing special, especially for very small portions , most of the staff were friendly, apart from one off hand woman ( probably the owner ) seats very uncomfortable 😕 next time we are in Swanage we will look at the reviews beforehand.

I’m a regular here at the Cornish bakery. It’s one of the best coffee places in town. The staff are so polite and kind. If you need anything they are there to help.

This is the only café situated on the beachfront. They provide excellent coffee and a wide array of drinks. Next to the café, in the same building, there's a shop where you can buy various souvenirs like books, hats, and more. The café boasts a fantastic beach view and also includes restroom facilities.

Change of owners change of produce. Used to buy our daily cob rolls here for decades. Another institution gone. Bakery over the road far better

Dropped in after a trip to Norden and back. The old carriage is quite spacious, bright and attractive. Lots of outside seating on the platform and the grass bank. They also have a small book stall to raise funds for the railway. Prices are fine and the food and drinks are up to standard, but not as good as the Norden cafe.

Two visits!! On holiday in Bere Regis...we played skittles and had a drink one eve and the seven of us ate on Friday. I can't speak highly enough of this place....it's wonderful. One of our party is a coeliac and absolutely nothing was too much trouble. The staff were amazing ...really friendly and helpful. The food was out of this world.... just a pity we are 120 miles away....but, we will be back, when next in Bere Regis. Thank you so much for two lovely evenings.

The best Mint Choc Chip Ice-cream..... that is not green! As well as other great flavors, Jake's has a plethora of flavors' but this topped the bill.

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

I asked if they had a real ale. I was told they had an IPA. It was poured and given to me. It was not a real ale! It was a freezing cold keg beer that I really couldn’t drink and I was charged £5.20. I tried to complain to the obviously under-trained and frankly couldn’t-care-less female bar person but it was like water off a duck’s back. I said I was mis-sold but she didn’t seem to understand. I asked who owned the pub and was told “Stonegate”. I left the pint virtually in-drunk on the bar, hoping I would be able to claim a refund from Stonegate but the pub is not recognised on their website, other than from them looking for a tenant. I am out of pocket, fed up and very annoyed! I would advise anyone who likes a proper ale: DO NOT USE THIS PUB!

Great pla e to eat, nice food we'll presented, but listen to customers requirements please
