Cosy little spot, feels like a family-run place. Had the beef stew and it was proper hearty, just what you want on a damp evening. A nice change from the usual chains.

Pleasant pre Christmas get together with friends. Most courteous to request for special seating. Friendly and courteous service and great carvery with the extensive selection of seasonal and festive vegetables

Grilled fish was spot on, perfectly cooked with a nice char. Seafood casserole was packed with flavour, everything tasted super fresh. A bit pricey, but you can tell they&#39;re using quality ingredients.

The gluten-free scone here was a proper treat! Came out warm, just like the regular fruit one. It&#39;s nice not having to ask for a special menu - loads of options marked up clearly.

The pizza base is fantastic, and they have a nice house red that pairs perfectly with it. A proper Italian spot.

Lovely modern space, very comfortable. The wine list had some nice local options that paired well with our meal.

The salad greens were so fresh and crisp, really made the meal. A nice spot to sit and watch the world go by.

Been coming here for years, and the consistency is what keeps me coming back. The ingredients are always fresh, and they cook everything to order. It&rsquo;s just solid, reliable food that hits the spot every time.

The family running this place are so welcoming. Service was spot on, they really made us feel at home.

Perfect spot for a quick seaside bite. Grabbed a table outside, super relaxed vibe. Food came out fast, which was a plus. Had the fish and chips, decent portion. A bit pricey for what it is, but the view makes up for it. Solid lunch stop.

Been coming here for years. The arancini are consistently spot on - crispy outside, creamy inside. It&#39;s the one thing I always order. They&#39;ve never let me down.

The food quality here is excellent, especially considering the great value for a two-course meal at just &pound;16. The chef deserves compliments for the delicious dishes.

This must be one of the best restaurants in Dorset, if not the best! Notwithstanding the fabulous fresh food that comprises all three menus (and you don&rsquo;t have to stick to just one) the always friendly staff and terrific ambience make this my go-to eatery for simple evenings as well as &ldquo;special occasions&rdquo;.Easily on a par with Michelin starred London restaurants and better value too!Change of ownership hasn&rsquo;t detracted at all, long may it continue.

The staff were really welcoming, even to our dog. It&#39;s a nice touch when a place is so pet-friendly. The food was decent, though the service was a little slow at times.

The lunch deal is decent - haddock and chips, a side and a drink. The fish was fresh, but the portion felt a bit small.

The set menu for two was a good deal. They even helped with a birthday surprise, which was a nice touch.

The mackerel starter was fantastic, and the wine list had some great pairings for it. Service was as good as I remembered.

Service was on point, quick and efficient. Our food arrived piping hot, no waiting around. They have a decent house red that went nicely with the steak.

The staff were so helpful with our group booking. Everything came out hot and at just the right pace.

The outdoor seating is a real plus, especially with the blankets provided. It made a cool evening much more comfortable. The cocktails were lovely, and the whole vibe was very relaxed. A nice spot to unwind.

The dim sum selection here is solid. We tried the har gow and siu mai, both were fresh and well-made. The rest of the menu was a bit average, but I&#39;d come back just for the dim sum. Good for a quick business lunch.

Tried their roast. It&rsquo;s the best thing on the menu, honestly. Juicy, crispy skin, proper gravy. The rest was fine, but I&rsquo;d go back just for that.

The mixed grill is huge, easily for two or three. The adana kebab was the standout for me &ndash; so flavourful and juicy. The rest was good too, but that one really hit the spot.

The BBQ pork taquitos here are the reason I keep coming back. They&#39;re always perfectly crisp, and the pork filling is just the right balance of smoky and tender. Honestly, it&#39;s the one thing I order every single time.

The staff here are so lovely, especially with kids. Ruby and Daisy were really sweet with my little one, making her smile. Laura and Leah were also friendly and helpful. It&#39;s nice to see a team that genuinely seems to enjoy their work and connects with guests. Makes for a relaxed meal.

Perfect for a quick bite before work. Got the breakfast plate, added black pudding. Food&#39;s fresh, good portion for the price. Free coffee with Ikea Family before 9am is a nice perk. Gets the job done.

Charlie and Lyla were great hosts. The music was spot-on, really added to the vibe. I had a great time with their house red, it was a surprisingly good match for the small plates we ordered. A fun night out.

Loved the spot right on the marina. Tried a guest ale I hadn&#39;t seen before, which was a nice find. The place had a proper local buzz to it.

Popped in for a pint after work. The vibe is so chill, perfect for unwinding. Staff were really friendly, had a good chat. Just what I needed to switch off.

Popped in for a quick lunch. The staff were really friendly and chatty, which was nice. Food was good, no complaints there. Just took a little while to get the bill sorted at the end.
