"Visited with my 2 year old daughter as a treat, ordered chicken nuggets for her and a burger for myself. Waited 45 minutes, during which was told a few times it would only be a few minutes. Lots of large orders coming out from the kitchen for customers who came in after me. When the food finally arrived it wasn 't worth it. Burger order was wrong and looked a mess. When I questioned the staff I was actually told to 'smile, its christmas ' and also given the choice of, and I quote, 'redo the burger, have my money back or do one ' not impressed with the staff. And will be having my money back. Don 't bother wasting your money here."

"The Garden Gate Tea Room have just provided the catering for a funeral wake for us. The food was outstanding. Deliciously fresh quiches, sandwiches and outstanding choice of cakes. Highly recommended. The food was also presented beautifully. Thank you to all at the Garden Gate. Jan McGuinness and family."

"Purchased a cheese chutney and portland crab sandwich and drinks at this cafe today. Enquired about the crab sandwich as my husband is quite particular about his crab and was told it was a mixture of white and brown meat. Unfortunately it was more brown meat and a tiny sprinkle if white crab. He also felt there was crab paste added in the mixture. Cheese chutney sandwich arrived with that much sweet chutney that I couldn't taste the small amount of grated cheese on the sandwich. One side of the bread was fresh the other side was going stale. For me it was the most expensive I have ever paid for the few crisps that were on the plate because I couldn't eat the sandwich."

"Had a meal here on a Friday night with friends, nice convivial atmosphere and lovely food and drinks. We enjoyed friendly, efficient service and really felt that Charlie went the extra mile to make sure we had a good evening. We really appreciate being...able to order a small reasonably priced starter otherwise would only normally order courses. If I'm being picky, I think the lamb medallions could do with a slightly more generous portion of mash which was smooth and buttery and lovely. I think the puddings are a little on the pricey side but appreciated that we were able to get some custard on request. I suggest it would be nice to be able to order ice cream by the scoop for smaller appetites. I'll make sure I pop back in the day time for that lovely coffee."

"We did the Friday Bistro train and enjoyed every moment. We were greeted on the platform and advised of our table number. The carriages looked lovely with their gingham tableclothes and table lamps. If you were being picky you might say cotton rather than plastic tablecloths would be better but I understand the practicality. We had table 2 so were about as far as you could be from the kitchen car but all the hot food arrived hot. Service was friendly and very efficient but the meal progresses at a nice relaxed pace as you go along the line from Swanage to Norden and back twice. Plenty of time to look at the scenery along route while enjoying good food. Everything we ate was very good: smoked salmon, pate, braised beef, chicken, vegetables, apple pie, fruit salad all nicely presented and tasty. Drinks prices were reasonable and drinks service was also efficient. All four of us really enjoyed the experience and would recommend it. A bonus, we were expecting diesel but got steam."

"Arriving for lunch today in pouring rain we were turned away because we had the temerity to arrive with children....I respect (but disagree with not admitting children to the sculpture park (surely better to encourage and educate from a young age...? , but this is a CAFÉ. Surely the sensitive clientele could manage to be in the same space as those under 14 while eating?! Especially since the cafe was almost empty at the time. As arts educators and benefactors, this has made sure we will never offer support to an institution so woefully out of touch. If Messums, and Hauser and Worth, can welcome families, so could you. What poor judgement to care so little about your future supporter base!"

"Dived in for some breakfast rolls before a busy day teas coffee etc for myself and friend. Already open at 8am Sunday friendly good value and quick but freshlycooked service. Now the important bit the rolls. Great thick cut back bacon, properly cooked sausages not just dropped in a fryer but grilled, egg yolk just gooey but firm enough for a bap. The roll was clearly from a local Baker and fresh with a dusting of flour. Amazing wish all cafes were the same, will be back. Oh and another customer was having the all day breakfast takeaway let's just say I know what upgrade I am getting next time. 10/10!"

"I have been coming to Holme for years and all of my family love the cafe with there excellent food and the gardens. But to be told we now have to pay £3.00 each to walk round the gardens we have decided to go to either the Wishing well at Upwey where if you pay for a meal the entrance is free or Moreton gardens where again the food is excellent and there beautiful gardens are free to walk round all they ask for is a donation. We have bought so many roses, hanging baskets and spent a fortune in the Cafe but I am afraid you have lost our custom"

"great gelato! super nice staff! I had kirsch amaretto around and rosin, I would normally avoid kirsch flavored everything to all cost, but this is amazingly tasty, not too sweet, perfectly balanced on the creamy side. telefon was low on battery and asked the staff if could help and charge for a dae and they didn't even hesitate! and recommended us a great restaurant, because we were only for a day in bournemouth. not to miss a great Gelato place!"

"What a fantastic little cafe tucked away down by the side of Sainsbury’s supermarket.Went in here a couple of years ago with my partner who had the most enormously filling ploughman’s lunch.Been for a day out today to Swanage in Hurricane Dennis and decided to try Kaffs cafe again on the way home.We had two friends with us who ordered the home made vegetable soup, my partner ordered the doorstop egg, bacon and sausage sandwich and I ordered the normal sized egg and bacon sandwich.Friends were jealous when our sandwiches arrived until they saw their soup.The food here is amazing and the prices certainly very reasonable. Staff are friendly and welcoming and can’t do enough to make your visit enjoyable.It’s not a very spacious cafe but on saying that you don’t feel squashed in.Everything to eat is made on the premises, except the bread which is delicious anyway.Kaffs is certainly the jewel in the crown in Wareham.We were even offered a doggy bag for the half chunk of bread my friend couldn’t eat and a butter portion to go with it."

The Sandwich Shed

"At last, a place in Swanage with authentic flavors! The Sandwich Shed is a hidden treasure run by a charming couple who have curated a small yet delectable menu of gourmet sandwiches. Using homemade focaccia, my top pick was the BBQ beef brisket with sauerkraut, smoked cheese, crispy onions, and homemade black garlic sauce. Served with freshly cooked skinny fries, smoky "shed" slaw, and a drink from the pub where the Sandwich Shed is located, there is nothing to critique. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone who appreciates homemade, unique food."

"Living fairly locally, we used to drop in to the Village Inn for meals as a couple or with friends and always had a pleasant experience. Then Covid came along, so today we had a renewed pleasure in calling in to the Village Inn once again after a two year hiatus and we thoroughly enjoyed a snack lunch. The staff were super friendly and very helpful after at first saying that no soup was available as it was now the Summer(! the manager surprised us by saying that the chef could in fact make some for us. On noting that an adjacent table then also ordered two soups, we suggested that perhaps this policy should change so that soup was available year round! The chocolate fudge cake dessert and coffee were a great finish to the meal. Prices have obviously risen since we were last at the Village Inn but the quality of the food, service and atmosphere continued to be excellent."

"First ever visit to eat after a long cold day at work, really looking forward to a hot meal so I chose a 'Beef Tikka Curry , not too spicy not too mild.. £14.00! The food was served in a large bowl with yellow fat rice, a pot of mango chutney a poppadom. The curry was very dark in colour as a first impression the poppadom was slightly floppy wet.. the flavour of the curry was NOT a tikka flavour at all, nor a curry, but as a trained chef both military civilian.. I recognise that this had been overcooked heated up again to have developed this rich dark colour the beef was as tough as old tabbing boots. The extremely friendly waitress came over to check how it was I did mention the tough meat.. she went to investigate.. she returned to say it was cooked in the slow cooker so basically the chef was disregarding my palate that it was tough.. therefore no offer of a discount or dish change. I do love the atmosphere the pub does have a popular following being the only pub in the village to offer food... regulars such make a lovely atmosphere alongside the real fire, so win win in many aspects. IWhen deciding to eat out I must say which isn 't often due to my busy work-life, I can only say it was highly disappointing for a £14 bowl of filling yellow rice.. all else was eaten through sheer hunger.. I may not eat here again but I will no doubt venture in for the warm ambient atmosphere drinks. I hope this is seen as positive criticism not a review to hinder a promising business.. please ensure food is tasted before either sending out or being dismissed through the pride of a chef who may not be able to take an ego bruising!

"This was a birthday lunch, on a cold but sunny day. The place was warm with two large log Fires either end. Having pre booked we were immediately greeted and ordered drinks. The service throughout was attentive and efficient. The food was of good quality. Compared to 2 other pub/restaurants in the area, the standard was way above. We hope to visit again before the holidaymakers come to Dorset. I recommend The Worlds End."

Finley's Cafe

"I reluctantly have to leave a negative review for Finley's in Lulworth Cove. There are many options for coffee and cake in the area, but unfortunately our experience at Finley's was disappointing. Upon entering, it was unclear where to queue as there were two employees and two lines, with no signage indicating the process. The staff seemed uninterested and reluctant to interact with customers. The service was slow and the employees appeared miserable. The drinks and food took so long to be prepared that they were almost cold by the time we received them. To make matters worse, we were bothered by wasps while trying to enjoy our items outside. Overall, it was a dismal experience. I would recommend trying the café at the visitor center or the Chococo café instead. The owner of Finley's should consider addressing the attitude and efficiency of their staff. A little kindness and quicker service would go a long way in improving the customer experience."

"Was in the area for work and visited a couple of times. Service is through a screen at the shop (July ‘21). Advisable to order by phone and using the menu, order by number as the receptionist English language not great. The food was hot and freshly cooked and I avoided the cloyingly sweet and sticky dishes so common at Chinese takeaways opting for simple prawns with ginger and spring onions, stir fried bamboo shoots and water chestnuts and rice. A bit above the average in quality and the portions plentiful. Recommended"

"I stayed here with my partner for one night over the Easter bank holiday weekend. We spent the day in Swanage, about 20/25 minutes drive away. The hotel was really easy to find as it's off a main road but despite this, the room was very quiet and you couldn't hear the traffic. The room we were given was on the ground floor and it was HUGE! I've never seen a hotel room so big! The bed was king size, there was a sofa, chairs and TV, and the bathroom was spacious as well. We were also given complimentary mini chocolate eggs with the tea/coffee making facilities as it was Easter I nice little touch that we really appreciated! We ate dinner in the hotel restaurant as we didn't really have the energy to get in the car and find somewhere else to eat. We were seated in the lounge where we were served drinks and ordered food. We found it a little strange to be seated in the lounge until our food was ready but if you had children with you there were games and books for them to use. The food was beautiful and it was a large portion! The bed was comfortable although there was a strange ticking noise that went on through the night. We told the hotel staff in the morning and they were very apologetic and promised to check it after we left. Breakfast was included with our room rate and offered both cooked breakfast and cereal/fruit options. The staff were very accommodating of different dietary requirements. Overall I really enjoyed our stay here and wished it could have been for one night! The room was brilliant and such a good size. The food was excellent as well. The staff were friendly and accommodating although there only seemed to be two people working there so the woman looked a little stressed! This hotel is a good distance from local attractions and would be a good base for visiting Swanage, Corfe Castle and Lulworth Cove."

"During our holiday, we decided to grab some Chinese food in Wareham. Originally, we had chosen another Chinese restaurant, but due to parking issues, we ended up closer to a different one. Upon looking at the menu and seeing the clean and inviting appearance of this establishment, we decided to give it a shot, and I'm so glad we did! We ordered crispy chilli beef, which was truly crispy and delicious, as well as pork chow mein that wasn't drowning in sauce and had crispy bean sprouts. We also got some chips for the kids, spring rolls, and salt and pepper spare ribs, which were absolutely incredible! The service was excellent, although we did have to wait 25 minutes for our food. However, this wait only reassured us that our meals were being freshly prepared, and they arrived piping hot when we returned to our campsite. The prices were reasonable, and I have already recommended this place to my mum, who also holidays in Wareham. We will definitely be returning the next time we're on holiday."
