Richard done a fantastic job of fitting all my electrics in the garden office. Including sockets (indoor and out) as well as my spotlights. Richard has previously fitted a ceiling light again I couldn't be happier with. Lovely guy and reasonably priced!

Wow what a burger! The place is a lovely funky modern place, on industrial estate so easy parking outside. I got to have a cider, burger, and fries. Not the cheapest but well worth it! They clearly have great meat supplier patties were great!

Ordered takeaway on Saturday. Atmosphere on collection was busy, food was delicious and hot, portion size was generous. We ordered the OG burger and a gluten free bun was available and catered for well. Only criticism is we had to a wait a bit longer than agreed pickup time, but for such a new business still finding their feet on their first Saturday night, I could understand, so it didn’t reflect the review. If you want tasty burgers with some great choices, look no further.

Had the truffle burger, sweet potato fries and halloumi fries. Sweet potato fries were kinda caramelised and so good. Halloumi was soft and flavourful. Though the burger looked small compared to other places it absolutely hits the spot. Juicy and flavourful. The sauce literally bleeds out with each bite. Staff are welcoming and friendly. It's a little out the way and very hidden. Defo a hidden gem. Definitely looking to make it a regular stop.

A little hard to find but so worth it. The staff is amazing and even though the burger could look small so filling, flavourful and perfect. Will become a more regular spot for my husband and I. The halloumi fries is also a must have. We both had the truffle shuffle burger with normal and sweet potatoes fries and halloumi fries. Just wish it was slightly cheaper so we can come every week but I know that is just the price of inflation.

My husband pre- ordered, which was very easy , the food was ready when we collected. The burgers and chips were all nice and the ingredients fresh. I do think they are a lot of money for burger and chips , so this would not be something we had very often.

We booked LJH in for PAT testing and some additional sockets for our business. Lawrence was really friendly and helpful, clearly knows his stuff! We left him to it whilst we were out and he left no trace of any mess after he left. Will definitely use again, highly recommended. Thankyou

Fabulous electrician, Great Friendly service and amazing attention to detail. Earlier this year (2024) Lawrence replaced my fuse board in my shop. He also cut down the amount of circuits that were in my shop from 8 to 4, as there was circuits that were not being used. So they got stripped out. Professionalism was outstanding. Thank you.

Great service from BB Electrical. We were looking to get solar panels for our home. Ben came out and took the time to explain the system to us and gave a very thorough quote. The work was completed to a very high standard and the team were professional throughout. We are delighted with our new solar panels and are already enjoying the benefits.
Rating: 5 / 5
Solar panels and batteries.......... What a great company. From initial contact and planning, utterly professional. Ben quite obviously sought to provide what was required rather than pushing for a bigger order, rare these days! Cracked on with the work. Super fast, very tidy and very conscientious. Price wise BB Electrical supplied a bigger system then others for similar money. Without a doubt I would have no hesitation about recommending this company. Deal with them, you won't be disappointed.
Rating: 5 / 5
From first contact I found Ben from BB Electrical to be great at communication, he kept me updated with everything step by step, so I felt assured and at ease that the job was going to be completed in good time and without any worries. I had an extremely fair price for the work, Ben and his team executed it to the highest of standards. I’m delighted to have found and to recommend BB Electrical to others. Will no doubt use again in the future

Employed BB Electrical to carry out a scheduled Electrical Inspection Condition Report for our warehouse unit @ Bournemouth Steel. The inspection and all remedial works were completed in good time, they were tidy, courteous and did an excellent job. New 3 phase consumer unit installed with galvanised containment and re-wiring where necessary. Would definitely recommend

The Kitchen at Blandford
24 Salisbury St, Blandford Forum DT11 7AR, UK | Restaurant P: 01258 451027
Rating: 4.8 (121) Price Level:
Great find! We popped in for a late lunch. We had the classic croque and it was delicious. A great combination of flavours with a lovely dressed side salad and home made coleslaw. A really great cup of coffee too. My sons vanilla milkshake was overflowing with cream and sauce topping! Friendly staff and swift service. Nice clean toilets too. Only slight downside if there is one was that there are a few steps up to the front door which could possibly be an issue for a few customers. Highly recommended café.
Rating: 5 / 5
The service was great and the guys are friendly and polite. The coffee was very good, the cafe is very clean and the loo is spotless, I did see the kitchen as someone came out, spotless (yes I’m nosey!) I had the Welsh rarebit I like a stronger cheese and my toast was cold, this is a personal thing, they did ask if it was ok and I said yes! Would I go back yes, would I recommend yes . Would I have Welsh rarebit again no ! The ice cream is delicious and would definitely have again.

The Pantry at The Grainstore

Rating: 4.9 (59) Price Level:
So I have been going to the pantry for a few years now, I can honestly say in all that time I have never had a bad meal, not even a mediocre meal, every one has been top notch, at work we see this as the place to go at lunch, pricing is reasonable, for example I have just had a full English, sausage bacon beans mushroom egg toast with a pot of tea for under £10, great value but all good quality local products. It is the place to go
Rating: 5 / 5
Stopped here unexpectedly for brunch. Ordered meaty breakfast wrap and bacon sandwich and 2 coffees. Asked for bacon to be well done and no problem. Everything came out beautifully cooked and very tasty. Only let down were 2 families who deemed it totally acceptable to let their young children run around screaming whilst everyone else was trying to enjoy a nice brunch. Totally ignorant.
Rating: 5 / 5
My god, this is a find. My husband loved the breakfast wrap and I had the biggest most tasty salad ever, you basically pick from a list to make your perfect salad. It's in an odd place, in an industrial estate, but once you're inside, the atmosphere and layout makes you feel you're in a farm shop. Gentle music, comfy well spaced tables. We will definitely make this a regular visit and add it to our "places" for lunch or coffee and cake.

Had some lovely food here after browsing in the Grainstore emporium. A good selection of homemade cakes and hot drinks, with hot food on offer too. I had the vegan breakfast wrap which I can definitely recommend.

Rating: 4.7 (830) Price Level:
We went there yesterday as a group of 15 and they were absolutely brilliant. We had the skittle alley to ourselves so the kids could play with the selection of toys in there which worked perfectly. We had a variety of meals across the table and everyone said how delicious it was. The pork belly bites as a starter were a definite stand out. Thank you to all the lovely team who served us.

We had drinks, dinner and then stayed over in our motorhome and it was absolutely wonderful! The food was exceptional, the service was excellent and the pub and beer garden are great. We were made to feel very welcome and would definitely recommend!
Rating: 5 / 5
The pubs staff were friendly and funny, not just robots and also not too cheeky it becomes weird. The portions were the size youd give yourself at a buffet. The price was fine. And the menu had a decent selection. I had the pie and it almost had more stake than my girlfriends ribeye. Highly recommend.
Rating: 5 / 5
A Dorset gem. I've only ever had the Sunday Carvery here because it's fantastic value (£14.50) and absolutely delicious. I always end up asking for a box so there is bubble and squeak to go home with! The staff are great and friendly. I'd say this is a proper pub and Sunday lunch experience! Booking very much recommended they are popular.
Rating: 5 / 5
I have driven past this pub on more occasions than I could probably mention and always said must try that one. Well today was the day and so pleased that I did! I can honestly say this was one of the best (if not the best) pub food I have ever had. Our table of four all had different dishes and every single one was outstanding quality with a generous portion. Personally I opted for the ploughman's asking for it without the meat element which wasn't a problem at all. An excellent selection, fresh and tasty. I would highly recommend booking, even for lunch, as it was busy, and it's really not surprising why. The service was friendly and a good pub atmosphere made it a great experience and all at a fair price too. This will most definitely not be the last visit to this highly recommended Dorset pub. If you haven't been then add it to your 'must visit' list, but don't leave it as long as I did.

Very warm and friendly welcome from the lady behind the bar today for lunch. Chicken burger, chunky chips and salad £10.50! Bacon cheese burger, chunky chips and salad £12.50! Amazing value I’m going to try the home made lasagna next time. Salad wasn’t just a bit of lettuce, but a decent freshly prepared salad with pepper, red onion, cress ect exceptional and very reasonably price food and drinks, the best value food in town. The bar is full of some old characters adding to the traditional pub atmosphere. Garden was clean and tidy, will be back soon 🍻
