Beach cafés can be a bit of a dive — not this one! Really tasty good, generous portion sizes, friendly staff, a relaxed atmosphere, and sea views. We especially enjoyed the scampi and the dirty fries.

Had the fish and chips with mushy peas. This for us is the best fish and chips in Weymouth for your money. The batter is always cooked perfectly, lovely and crispy. A great portion of chips and nice sized pot of mushy peas. Restaurant looks perfectly out over the sea at Bowleaze cove. There is always outside seating under cover and also a decked area.

The food is chip shop style but tastes good. Service is friendly and there is a separate bar for alcoholic drinks.

We booked Milton Manor for our wedding reception in July 2022. We couldn’t have asked for a better house and accommodation. We had a large marquee in the garden which worked really well. The owners were very accommodating with letting us visit to plan and map out the marquee before our stay. We filled the rooms with wedding guests and family members. A wonderful house with wonderful gardens.

Beautiful house and grounds with plenty of activities provided to keep you entertained like pool, darts, table tennis to name a few, there's a hot tub also available which I'm assured was very hot...... loads of rooms to spread out in should you be in need of some quiet time, the only couple of downsides I could see were our shower seemed to take forever before running hot (warm) enough to get under.... and even with the two separate wi-fi routers provided in the property coverage is sketchy to say the least, I imagine the thick walls of this old manor house are a major factor. That said for mass gatherings you should certainly check this place out....

went for a birthday meal food was amazing, decor was eccentric, staff were friendly and lovely to speak to the food did take a while to arrive due to issues in the kitchen on the day but the staff apologised and explained this seeing the animals in the fields outside after the meal was a nice surprise overall highly recommend

Had lunch here and it was excellent! The carrot cake and chai tea are 5* worthy alone; everything else is a bonus! Décor is fabulous, as is the location. Service was a little slow but it's August and expected tbh... Staff really friendly

It is difficult to compare a beach side café with others, but they work very hard indeed in the holiday months, and deserve plenty of praise.

Great place always worth a visit when in the area. Couldn't ask for a better place to have some lunch or just a nice cold cider. Keep up the good work.

Had a stop here on a visit to Weymouth. Have to say the food was lovely - better than some of the more expensive places I've been to recently. Fantastic views of the beach, as well. Good honest food, reasonably priced. Give it a go!

Had a lovely lunch today. Great food, clean and pretty restaurant. The staff were all excellent but I would particularly like to mention Megan who was friendly, efficient and incredibly polite. She is an asset to your team. This was my first visit to your establishment but it won’t be my last. Thank you

Had a lovely 1 night stay recently. I stayed on a Monday during the restaurant closing times and as expected was very peaceful. The lady on reception was fantastic and very helpful. The continental breakfast was huge and well worth the extra. Ideal location, very short walk to the beach front.

My husband and I called in here on the off chance. We sat in the bar area as we had our dog with us. Absolutely amazing food, first class service especially by Megan who was very attentive. The best meal we have had in a long time, we would definitely go again!

Recently attended a 'tribute' evening here. The atmosphere is amazing. Everyone had a really great time. Staff were busy but there were plenty of staff on shift and very friendly, attentive and helpful. The food was delicious and came out hot and looked very appetising. We shared a cheeseboard for pudding and enjoyed some spirits. We were offered coffee and drinks orders were taken regularly. Had such a great evening we rebooked for the next 'event' evening. We come regularly and eat off both menu choices and always have had great service and delicious food. The staff are all friendly and polite and work hard to make sure you have everything you need. Thank you

Great little cafe with outdoor seating. Recommend the selection on panini’s- especially the tuna melt! It’s was delicious, also comes with some crisps and side salad for £6.50. The coffee was also lovely! Parking available on the road outside. Staff were very helpful and friendly

Popped in this morning for the first time, mid-way on my bike ride. The lady that served me was new on the till but was very pleasant, friendly and helpful. A lovely coffee and cake (coffee and walnut) was had sat outside. As an unexpected bonus the owner came out to me and produced the last piece of cake in a takeaway carton saying it was too small to sell so would I like to take it with me! Thank you for great service, I'll be back again 100%

We discovered and have subsequently been to BAKE three times in the last two weeks. From the get-go, we liked the place. The staff are always polite, professional and very friendly. Moreover, it is a very clean and well-furnished establishment - and we absolutely love the coffee (we are addicted to their flat whites). BAKE is also dog-friendly. Indeed, our pup is given a bowl of water and some complimentary dog biscuits during each visit (see photos). As such, BAKE has become our new local coffee shop. Highly recommended.

I could have spent endless hours pouring over everything in the shop. It’s a beauty to behold in the eyes of an American. There are assortments of wonderful pastries, cakes, cookies and breads. All types of condiments and sauces. An extensive meat counter with varieties of meat and fish (I regret to say my sausage and bacon from there were immediately seized upon my return to the US). Of course there are cheeses, spreads, pate and a great frozen section of many items including ready meals. The staff was friendly and the items I was able to enjoy (like the smoked trout terrine and a steak & kidney pie) were absolutely amazing

A huge, varied menu with very tasty, generous portions of food in a nice setting. A bit too easy to spend quite a lot of money! Great location with children when the weather is ok as there's a big field with football goals and some play equipment.

Great experience as a place, but also in the restaurant and in the store I would like to find things of very good quality, not just the basic one. The bread for breakfast can be one from a local bakery not a frozen baguette or the store could also sell organic milk in cartons not in plastic bottle or a yogurt in a jar not just plastic buckets...etc. Overall it was good with skilled and kind staff.

Great farm shop and very good restaurant, but has gotten incredibly busy. The farm shop is excellent, with a great butcher's counter and great selection of fruit & veg, as well as lots of posh nibbles. The restaurant is very reliable, decent food and good service. The only downside is that, with the large additional seating area they added to the restaurant, the whole place can get very busy. On a Saturday lunchtime we were lucky to snag the very last parking spot left in both the main and the *overflow* car parks.

Set in its own grounds, very pretty building. Is a little old fashioned, but is very quaint. The staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. The breakfast is everything you could hope for, cereal, fruit, yogurt and then a cooked breakfast with roles or coffee.
