Had a ‘Fill ‘em Up’ breakfast this morning, not only did it fill me right up as advertised but the excellent quality of food left me feeling very satisfied. All fresh ingredients and from what I can assume all locally sourced, down to the freshly baked bread. Can’t say a bad word about this place, great food, friendly staff!

We had a fantastic girls Christmas party night at the bank house, we all enjoyed ourselves and the tapas festive menu. Gorgeous food, lovely wine and great service.

The food was amazing here with a good choice of tapas. There were a good variety of gluten free options on the menu. The service was a little slow, but they had a huge party of people to deal with and kept us informed. Lovely choice of cocktails and mocktails, too.

This was our third time eating here and once again it didn't disappoint. There were 4 of us and we shared a number of dishes, all of which were delicious. The restaurant was busy with a great atmosphere and the staff were so helpful and friendly. Our waitress was brilliant and very patient with us as we tried to decide what to order. The manager was also very friendly, chatting to everyone and making sure we were all enjoying our meal. We will definitely be back.

We stopped off here for breakfast at the end of a weekend away as we’d heard from our hosts that they did good food and were dog friendly. The food was delicious and great value. The staff were really friendly and welcoming and we managed to pick up a couple of early Xmas presents for hampers as a bonus! Would highly recommend.

A wonderful find hidden away at Stalbridge Dorset we have a warm welcome and could sit outside or in the restaurant area, the menu had a good range of meals and the homemade cake where to die for. I am fussy about coffee this was good roosted by readscoffee.co.uk.

Margot has been running her cafe from this site about 8 years,so I have been many times in i think the last 7+ years... I live around 150 miles away,and hadn't been here since Christmas... So I got down about 06.30 this morning and had table booked for 09.30..... I can not fault this cafe,I tend to have the Spire Hill Grill and I have yet to have a bad bit of any meal. With the ever increase in cost of living,I was expecting it to be more expensive than Christmas 2022...but nope,same price,and I think it is amazing quality for a very reasonable price. I was with family that live in Dorset and visit this fantastic cafe often....in fact my sister was in the day before also. The staff are lovely...Margot (owner) is a true professional and has built her business up over the years,take look at the website,and the produce that have,home made jams etc etc,I understand they now have some of the produce selling in a local shop. The customers in the cafe are also friendly,and seem to know each other.... I did a review on TaT before,and I'm doing this update as and edit,my original is below. We had pot of tea and three coffees...the little milk bottles,the glass teapot are just examples of some of the things they do differently...and it all goes to show the love Margot has for food and service to her customers (friends) The head chef Eve (pink shorts ;) ) is also a little star,and has been with TaT from being tutored from as an apprentice to becoming head chef... And is a credit to Margot and to catering... We came away with a couple of pieces of home made cakes....and will enjoy later. I know before I arrive that the experience will be all I could reasonably expect,and could only ever leave a rate of 5 star.... Anything less...I'm my view is unjust. My original review below Brilliant cafe,I always try to visit when in area,it's a lovely place,great food,and staff are greatest

On the main road which goes through stur. Ideal for a light lunch or snack. Did have a specials board which we sampled two dishes from. Staff friendly and overall it's very good value for money.

Such a beautiful cafe, full of character and charm. Have visited a few times, with friends and with family. Each time I have visited, the service has been so welcoming, warm and friendly. The cakes are exceptional, the brownies in particular are a must try! The food is great value for money, so tasty and freshly cooked. We are so lucky to have this cafe in our town! (Also dog friendly with a little jar of biscuits on the side which I feel is a lovely extra bonus!)

Made so welcome with our puppy on a really wet, windy Sunday. We were wet, the puppy was trying hard to be good. The Big Stur breakfast was epic. Filling and great ingredients. The plate was swept clean. Generous portions for the hungry traveller. Pleasant surroundings and friendly staff. They cared for us. We will be back.

This is a beautiful little place we found whilst on holiday. We was looking for somewhere to have a full English breakfast and this place delivered. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and the food was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Prices are fair for what you get will 100% return when we next are in the area. Keep doing what your doing it's amazing.

The feed station team did an amazing job with hosting my mums surprise 60th Birthday, Amanda and Chris were super helpful and were very accommodating to what I wanted. The food was delicious and the Venue beautiful, they made a beautiful birthday cake especially for the occasion decorated to how I wanted with flowers.

Nick spotted the issue and at same time talked me through how the system works which is something that the original installer never bothered to do. Would recommend if you are considering a system as a good installer is really important to your ongoing system health.

A superb team from NDM installed our solar system with battery in short time as our decision-making was out of sync! Very grateful that we now have a fully functioning solar installation which was commissioned last Saturday. Thanks Nick and Alison. Graham

I recently worked with Nick and his team from NDM electrical and I am extremely impressed with their service. From the first contact, Nick's professionalism and dedication to customer satisfaction were clear. He responded quickly, scheduled a convenient consultation, and arrived on time. Nick’s team was courteous, efficient, and highly skilled. They understood my needs and provided great recommendations to improve my home’s electrical system. Their attention to detail ensured everything was done to the highest standards, from installing new lighting fixtures to upgrading the electrical panel and troubleshooting issues. What stood out was their commitment to safety and cleanliness. They followed all safety protocols and left my home spotless. It’s evident they take pride in their work and care about their customers. I highly recommend Nick and his team. Their exceptional service, friendly demeanor, and professionalism made this a stress-free experience. If you need top-notch electrical work from a reliable and trustworthy company, Nick and his team are the best choice. Thank you, Nick, for a job well done!

NDM Renewables fitted solar panels & a battery system at our property last October. We are so pleased with the results especially through the summer months. The NDM team were quick & professional & have offered us on going support as we have changed energy providers to get the most from our system.

My husband and I ate at the Golden Fox after reading great reviews on the food, the staff and the facilities. We were not disappointed. Absolutely fantastic food. Wonderful staff and spotlessly clean facilities. The whole place had a wonderful ambiance which only enhanced the whole experience. They were also very welcoming of our dog Max.

This was our first visit and we were very impressed. The fish platter had a most interesting selection of fish and was beautifully presented . The service was most friendly and courteous. Our only negative comment was that the garden , where we ate, could have been tidied up with some more colourful bushes.

We picked the Golden Fox after reading reviews and we were not disappointed. I felt the bar area was a little dark, but we were soon accommodated in the restaurant. Really good to see that the restaurant is a no dog zone. The menu is not extensive but with the daily specials there should be something for everyone. It's worth noting they do not have a children's menu but modify some of the menu items to make a child's portion. Our 11 year old Granddaughter made short work of the adult 8 oz steak! The food was very well cooked and presented and portions were generous. Staff were welcoming, friendly and attentive. For the quality and portion sizes, the prices were good A great new find to add to our list of "must returns"
