Very relaxing lunch, great ambience in an authentic mill setting. Food was delicious, well presented, generous portion sizes, and good service too, so ticked lots of boxes. Will definitely return soon.

We arrived just as they were closing. We only wanted a cup of tea and some cake, and the staff were lovely and welcoming. The carrot cake was delicious, and the tea was plentiful. They have a small menu but it caters for all at a very reasonable price. The small and cosy restaurant is spotlessly clean and the tables well spaced with additional seating outside if the weather is fine. All in all, a delightful find. We will definitely visit again.

Pretty tea rooms beside an old very rustic Mill. Very friendly welcome & generous pot of tea with choice of yummy cakes. Savouries looked great too.

We called in today for a cuppa and cake and were very impressed on arrival with the extremely kind, friendly young lady as nothing was too much trouble, especially as we arrived near to closing time. We had a nice cup of tea and a piece of carrot cake. The menu for lunches etc also looked very nice. The owner told us they do a Sunday lunch using all local produce, which is always nice to hear. It's a little way out of Bridport, but in our opinion, it is well worth a visit. We will definitely come back again soon. I can only give 5 for customer service. i would have given 10 if I could.

Cherries has a great vibe and serves excellent coffee. Their sandwiches, flatbreads and a different take on the Greek salad were noteworthy. Considering the feel of the place one would have expected more vegetarian options in the kids menu.

We called in for drinks and cake. They do fab milkshakes and Iced coffee with ice cream and plenty of cream on top :-) The cakes are yummy too, we had the chocolate brownies and Flapjacks. They have a varied menu. This cafe has a fun retro style, dog friendly with easy access to the carpark and views of the harbour. Will return.

Nice big cup of Cappuccino and let us in with our two dogs. Friendly staff. Just a typical cafe. Breakfast looked okay and not small. Very open seating so you do get the kitchen smells. But we liked it and I am fussy.

It was a small perfectly formed traditional British cafe, very clean and pleasant, Menu was clearly written out on the boards, very well priced, one got the impression that this cafe is well loved. Three of us had the Full English Breakfast, the ladies who have alot of experience of cafes in the UK and Australia were very impressed with the breakfast cooked to perfection, in particular the sausages were suprisingly meaty, as a trained chef I was impressed with the standard and presentation. The ladies and I highly recommend this cafe.

Great food, great service at a fair price. Local produce used, tucked down a side street but they have a board showing the way, full English breakfast is my favourite. If you're in Bridport, give them a visit. Recommended!

My big sister beryl. The wannabe Mrs ,Bucket. Took mum and dad too this restaurant for a Christmas meal. Having just had new dentures. Dad put his teeth under a napkin. On the side plate ... And completely forgot about them. Imagine the young waitresses surprise. Thought she had a Christmas tip..🎄🎄🐥😄. Only too find dad's teeth. Beryl red faced went back a couple of days later too get them So he could chew her burnt offerings for Christmas day..

Great food and drink. Lovely setting. Sat outdoors for lunch. Was very busy but still got a table for four plus dog. Great staff; swift and friendly service. Thanks

I love what Rise has done with the place. It's gorgeous inside with lovely views. We were very warmly welcomed, I think they must have been fairly busy and service was relatively slow. But it didn't matter as we were there to enjoy the place, and the staff were lovely. The food was really nice and a good sized portion. It's a bit spenny but for location and food I can't really fault them for what they charge. Definitely recommend

We were recommended Moore Than Tea ...and Cake by a friend, so we stopped by to try out some of their home made food. The staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The service was very good as we decided to eat outside, and our order was brought outside to us. I went for the Custard Cream Cheesecake which was delicious, and liked the fact that it had biscuits added to the top and the sides. I would recommend a visit for a nice snack in the afternoon, if you’ve been walking up some of the coastal walks nearby.

Quirky little cafe. Lots of outdoor seating. Dog friendly. We went for brunch, and both the full English and the vegan breakfast were very good. I thought prices were fairly high for the portion sizes, but at least the quality was good. Be warned that this is a cash only establishment! Very unusual these days.

Second visit. We love this place! Food is really good. Had dal, rice, rains and salads, Moroccan pie, chips and salads. All fantastic. Love the playlist, decor, vibe. Just love it.

Came here on a recommendation of a family member and I was glad I did! It was a busy day and the staff were clearly rushing all over the place, with our food taking quite a while to arrive. However, our breakfast was fresh, hot and most importantly; extremely tasty! Great quality sausages (a big hit for me) and thick cut bacon. Minor complaint that I received fried bread instead of toast, but it wasn't enough for me to raise it at the time. Nice coffee too! Even had some colouring bits for young kids, which is a nice touch.

I think we paid around £10 for 3 babyccinos, a double espresso and 2 packets of biscuits, which given today’s prices is pretty good 🙌🏻 Side note: the Babyccinos are awesome. They’re £1.45 and you get frothy milk with marshmallows but a cheaper version for kids. Highly recommend and the kids loved them👌🏻 I could imagine that it would be quite relaxing and enjoyable, but we had 3 kids. Sitting in a cafe is generally not all that enjoyable with kids but they were quite bearable and no one died. And big up to the member of staff that took the time to have a chat with one of our kids and even gave them all paper bags to collect treasure in from the beach 🙌🏻

Beware does not take cash. Reasonable pasties and a decent cup of tea.

Rating: 4 / 5

Great Bakery, with a great choice of reasonably priced savoury tasty pasties and pies along side cakes and tarts, etc. There is seating inside, where pets are welcome. However this is a very popular cafe, where you well may have to queue. It can be so busy that the staff haven't the time to clear tables, or check the toilets, as these are very busy too.

Excellent and tasty Cornish pasty and sausage rolls... Id drive there again just for lunch (80 miles away). All cooked on site too. Thanks guys for a really good food experience.

The Cornish Bakery holds a special place in my heart for its unparalleled food quality and exceptional customer experience. Whether it's an early Sunday morning breakfast or any other time, their wide selection of freshly baked delights and aromatic coffee never fail to impress. The warmth and friendliness of the staff add to the overall charm, making every visit a delightful culinary journey.

We stopped for a scone on the way back to the car after spotting the tea rooms menu. When we arrived a sign said to sit at a table and you will be served from it. We knew what we wanted and were quickly greeted by a friendly lady who had observed we were ready and ordered 2 Dorset Cream Teas. Our food and drink was served within minutes and I couldn't actually believe the quality and quantity of the order for just £6.96 each! Absolutely delicious, will return for sure.

What a hidden gem!!!! Absolutely delicious cream tea. The service was absolutely brilliant, we came on a particularly busy day, and we had to wait 20 or so minutes for a table, the waitress was quick to book us in. The service was incredible, chatting lovely staff and our order came really fast. The scones were really something else! Warm and fluffy! Really affordable

Rating: 5 / 5

Absolutely loved it! The staff were lovely, the food was impeccable and the tea room itself was immaculate. The sandwich and the scones on the cream tea I ordered were massive, really worth the price! And was no problem when I asked for something to take half of me meal away when I couldn't finish it 😅 A must visit at West Bay!

Family run, friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed the home made scones ❤️. Very generous portions! Thank you for staying open even after closing time. Would definitely recommend if visiting the area.
