We had our wedding reception meal here last week and I can honestly say it was fabulous. The staff were extremely attentive and the food was the best. Thank you to Lee, Hannah, Jay and the team for making our special day so memorable.

My wife and I stopped here for Breakfast while holidaying in the area and most certainly not disappointed. Every single item on their Clubhouse Breakfast was cooked to absolute perfection, and it was quite simply one of the best cooked breakfasts I have ever eaten! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

Tasty food from a small menu. This was the most delicious pork burger with a spicy twist. Sadly not available on our second visit or I would have ordered it again! Delicious lemon cordial and their date flapjacks were also a tasty teatime treat for later.

I fly kites at Bowleeze Cove common ground, and the Lookout is right next to the field so it's very convenient. They provide great food with good sized portions and the freshly ground coffee is lovely especially on a cold day. Would recommend 👍

Popped in for a quick bite to eat after visiting the Roman temple ruins. The cafe has the perfect location looking out over the bay, and has seating both inside and out. Staff were super friendly and even though it was fairly close to closing time they were incredibly accommodating. We had the seafood platter, and even though they did not have a lot of crab meat, they offered to make it up with another part of the platter instead. That being said, the platter had a great portion of each of the seafoods, and the salad was very good too. Personally I really enjoy radish in salads so glad to see it here. We also got a milkshake and a smoothie, the milkshake was a great refresher and my partner said she loved the smoothie. Finally we also had a couple of cakes to finish our lunch, I had a rocky road which was superb, and my partner had the largest slice of coffee and walnut cake, which of course I helped finish off. Definitely worth going for a nice meal with a view!

Lovely little hidden gem! The service was efficient and friendly and the food was absolutely to die for. All homemade, how rare is that! And gluten free options available too, will absolutely be returning. Thank you for our amazing lunch (homemade fishcakes!)

What a lovely quaint tea room which became very popular at lunchtime on our arrival. Only had to wait a few minutes when proprietor advised us a table was about to become free after being cleaned. Once seated and served with choice of refreshments, it was some 20 minutes before food was presented. Well worth the wait as we were in no haste as on holiday. Obviously, the tables filled very quickly hence the wait. The sign above the counter states, 'We don't serve fast food, We serve fresh food, As fast as we possibly can'. A very true statement given the excellent service.

Had a family meal today. Seven of us. Some chose from the Christmas menu and some not. The food was delicious and hot. The service was great too. They were happy to allow us to pay for what each couple had. There were crackers on the table and they were fab, each had the usual hat and joke in but it was the little gift that was lovely. We each had a cardboard tree decoration which could be easily assembled and was very sturdy. This was our second year for our meet up and we shall be going again next year.

Service with a smile and a jolly atmosphere inside. Visited for food only and did not stay overnight. My partner and I both had the house burger which was to die for! A solid and tasty beef patty in a toasted bun with a bucket of fries is always a winner! 🍔 🤩 Passing visit for a quick stop to eat after a long drive. Easy access with plenty of parking.Was busy when we visited so service was slower than we would normally expect. Slightly on the more pricey side.

This hotel is such a fabulous hotel, great location, good sized room/bathroom, great sized bed & soft fluffy towels. To add to this, the food was delicious, fantastic service and staff are friendly, helpful and all with a smile. We stayed Friday night and had an early engagement, Christine made sure our dinner was on time and made sure we had everything before finishing her shift. Honestly, what a lovely lady. She was just as helpful and cheerful the next morning. The lamb dinner in the evening was absolutely delicious 😋 The complimentary glass of Prosecco and half a beer was a fabulous touch… not advertised enough. Luckily we found a voucher in the room. And the choice of breakfast was amazing. We had smashed avo on toasted sourdough, seasoned with a hint of lemon, pesto leaves, chilly flakes and a perfect poached egg on the side… all done to perfection… well done to whoever made that 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 And for once the tea in the teapot was actually boiling, so I had a hot cup of tea with my breakfast… again perfect! One small thing… a little more light in the bathroom or in the bedroom with a good mirror for us older ladies would be helpful!

My wife and I booked for one night's stay at the Crown Hotel recently, as it looked very nice and the price was more competitive than other hotels within this region. It's a beautifully maintained Georgian building in nice location, offering us easy access to numerous locations we wanted to visit in Dorset. We needed a second night's stay added, which was sorted out very easily and all prices, including our breakfast were clarified at reception. The staff were all pleasantly professional and the food choice was very good and of high quality. The room was clean, with a touch of character in line with age of building and had everything to make our stay comfortable. We were disturbed on second night by another guest's barking dog, although this was brief. Parking space is abundant and easy to access. There's also a very big beer garden outside hotel, which looked a popular feature in the sunny weather. Overall, generally pleased with our stay at the Crown and would recommend to others.

Every single member of the team at The Crown Blandford have gone out of their way to accommodate our large family group. The food has been exceptional as are the rooms which are beautiful and spotless. The food at every meal has been amazing. At dinner, every single plate for our large group came out at the same time and was piping hot and delicious. We were well looked after and checked in on regularly. The welcome is warm and friendly and every part of our requests were accommodated including providing an accessible room for a family member needing a lift and a room with support. Reception did a great job of coordinating our group and helping with all of our requests. The bar staff also did really well to help us as we ordered drinks throughout the day. Thank you so much to everyone at The Crown ! We are very grateful and can’t wait to bring our family group back to see you !

Had the Veal schnitzel served with an anchove, fried egg, green beans, mashed potato and some very tasty gravy. The gravy was so nice that I asked for a little extra and the friendly staff duly obliged. All in all a very enjoyable meal.

Me and my husband got married here in April and it was honestly the most perfect day we could have possibly imagined! Laura (best wedding planner ever) went above and beyond to make sure it was perfect, nothing was too much to ask. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a wedding venue 🤍

Service was second to none. It was such a pleasant surprise. The Sunday lunch was excellent and so tasty, and excellent value for money. An unbelievable change from what we had experienced a year or more ago. Although we sat outside, we had frequent from a member of staff to ensure all was OK. Highy recommended.

As it was Monday night I couldn't find anywhere else to eat, so many pubs and restaurants were closed! I had to travel just over ten miles but boy was it worth it. I had the beer battered Pollock and it was superb. The beer was exceptionally well kept as well. Would recommend this pub as the whole experience was great, a special sound out to the young lady who answered the phone as her easy, confident, manner on the phone convinced me to get in the car and both young ladies in the bar especially the red head who was lovely! Not a fan of the basket idea, my fork kept going through the greaseproof paper, would have preferred a plate. With food this good you don't need a gimmick!

I eat here with a friend ,early tea time .the girl who served our table was very attentive, the food was brought to the table quickly. Their were 10 other dinner's too..I imagine we sat in the newly extended part of the public house . As we finished our food their was live music . Clean well decorated with a friendly atmosphere. My friend and I were very happy.

A wonderful pub with wonderful staff. Well worth a detour off the Shaftesbury / Blandford road. A great menu selection using local produce. We had The Cricketer and The Fisherman option in malted roll. Both with great fresh ingredients. Will certainly visit again.

Had the most amazing Sunday lunch to celebrate a special 93rd birthday. The staff decorated specially in just the perfect window area of the pub. The atmosphere is so welcoming including kids and even the dogs! The staff and service was just excellent. Sunday lunch we all immediately opted for the Roast beef which was cooked to perfection and comes with a huge Yorkshire pudding, roasties, all your fave veggies and the best stuffing I've ever tasted! Pudding was an easy choice for most with an all time fave of Sticky Toffee Pudding but I chose the Rice Pudding with apples & homemade honeycomb.....every mouthful tasted like apple crumble, it was delicious. Coffee and birthday cake to end a wonderful lunch in a gorgeous setting which even included a quick trip to the playpark conveniently located across the street :) We will absolutely be back!!! ♡

Having been refurbished and newly reopened we popped in here on the way past a few weeks ago. We were that impressed with the high quality of food and service we went back again 2 weeks later. The Sunday roasts are delicious, choose from chicken, pork, lamb or beef. Small or large. The small serving is enough for us with very good portions. My daughter had the Chicken Burger and we've all cleared our plates on both visits. We can highly recommend the Biscoff Sundae for desert its so good you wont want to share it. We will be back again soon thats for sure.

Had a lovely lunch here today. Just turned up and were seated promptly by friendly and courteous staff. Decided against a roast as there were too many other tempting options on the menu and the specials board but saw several brought out to other diners and it looked amazing and very generous portions - the small looked large to me! Will definitely be back to try it and also at least 2 of the themed nights and breakfast. Very good service, comfortable atmosphere and excellent, good value, unpretentious food.

Visited for the first time today and will be back. I had the pork belly, which was absolutely amazing and I would definitely recommend. Overall fantastic food which was great value, with a warm and friendly atmosphere and plenty of parking and seating (both inside and outside). With kids meals at only £5 for a good sized plate you can’t go wrong.

Superbly cooked food, generous portions and great atmosphere too. Sunday lunch was astoundingly good, and I’m fussy! Pork with crackling, roasties all crisp on the outside and properly fluffy inside, lots of different veg, everything hot and fresh. Decor is lovely, toilets spotless and the staff (particularly Donna, the GM) cheerful, chatty and friendly. Big car park, and only a few miles from Wimborne and Corfe Mullen, this is rapidly becoming our favourite place to eat, totally worth a visit since the new management took over this year. We’ve had a full breakfast too, a few weeks ago - brilliant value and delicious. 5 stars and then some.

A big group of us were catered for, as we were celebrating a birthday. We were given a private space close reception, service was excellent, not too long to wait for food. The meals were not small either. And with the burger, a nice beetroot bun(gorgeous )No rush for table, the staff even gave us a Happy birthday chorus. Even though it was evening, the fairy lights outside gave the garden a lovely atmosphere, with a cosy lodge if you wanted to be outside.

We booked for Sunday lunch in the dog friendly section. The service was excellent. Drinks orders were taken and delivered quickly. I had a beef dinner, my wife chicken. The food was hot, tasty and plentiful. I'm a fussy so and so at times but this was the best pub Sunday lunch I've had and I have travelled the length and breadth of the country. Well worth a visit!!!!!!!!

After a long journey down for a weekend away with the kids we popped in for a spare of the moment booking. Very accommodating and booked us in before we arrived 15minutes later! We were greeted and shown our table and were made to feel very welcome. We had the Sunday roast beef which was outstanding. As a Sunday roast pro this ranks there in the top 3 I've had. The beef was like butter and the gravy was delicious... would happily sit and dunk potatoes and bread into the gravy all night long. A very good pub wish it was more local to us! Thankyou

A group of 10 of us came for Sunday lunch after a walk in the forest. We all went for the roast dinner which were all very good and a decent portion with a fair price. Kids portions were great and the yorkshires are massive. Pub deserves to be a lot busier than it is with the friendly staff good food and great walks on the door step.
