Stunning location, delicious food and such a friendly team. We can’t wait to come back. Congratulations on the opening. It was bustling but the team were handling it like champs. Superb quality.

Fantastic, I would urge anyone to seek out this cafe. As soon as we walked through the door we received a friendly warm welcome. There is a good variety of breakfast items which was the purpose of our visit. We decided on the farmers breakfast and added a slice of fried bread to the breakfast. Sausages were fantastic as were the bacon and black pudding. Eggs cooked perfectly and not cooked in those stupid rings. Hash brown looked a bit pale, I was expecting it to be soggy. However I was thankfully proved wrong, really crispy hash brown the way i like them. Fried bread was an extra £1.50 but definitely worth it, not a proper breakfast without it. We also purchased some scones to take home and they were delicious. Top marks 10/10

Food 10 /10, Can't fault it. Had bacon eggs and sausage sarnie and it was perfect! Service 10 / 10 Can't fault the service. Lovely ladies . Atmosphere 10/ 10. They've done it up since they took over and it seems much brighter and welcoming.

Visited on the opening day, wow, what a great experience. The premises has been given a lovely refresh inside and out. Food is amazing and staff are super helpful and friendly. Well worth a visit and have to say it has the edge over the old business which used to be here.

Wonderful birthday dinner. Lamb Scrumpit, Tuna Carpaccio, Pork Belly, Dorset Crab Linguine, Tiramisu (a little heavy for my preference, but still delicious) and Cheese and crackers. We’ll be back!

We stopped in while visiting from America. I would consider the White House to be an upscale pub. The ambience is great! Lots of stone and heavy wooden beams. There were lots of locals there when we were there which is always a good sign. The staff was wonderful! The food was truly excellent! Every starter and entree was done to perfection! If we lived in the area we would be here often!

Cracking little village pub, we popped in for a few drinks with friends and had a great time, we sat in the garden in the sun and it was extremely pleasant. Will be going back for some food in the future.

Excellent service from MJS plumbing & heating. I had an issue with my LPG boiler. I emailed out of hours, received an appointment time within 2 days. The engineer was on time, polite and friendly. He explained the issue and what he was doing, and got my boiler up and running in minutes! Highly recommended!!

I have been using Dyer's for several years now and recently needed a new boiler urgently. Chris was quick to get the initial estimate and the price, as always, is very fair. The installation was then carried out quickly and professionally. Having a trustworthy local plumbing business in Dyer's for emergencies, regular servicing and installations is so refreshing.

We have known Chris for over five years, he arrives when he says he will and is super professional and efficient, as a bonus he is always cheerful!, couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

I booked my boiler service with Chris (like last year) and asked if he could fit a new tap in my kitchen too. Tap fitted, boiler serviced, fault found and rectified all in the same day. Was hassle free and he didn’t even eat all the biscuits I left out for him. I haven’t had my bill yet but I’m sure it will be reasonable and I will pay it promptly. Thanks to the whole team.

Very reliable and thorough service from Dyer’s. Always use them for boiler servicing and they take time to talk me through the condition of the boiler and how things are doing. Used them for the past two years and will continue to do so in future. Would highly recommend.

EWHearing are absolutely fantastic, especially Ed and Andrij. They moved our boiler for us and did a great job. Clean, tidy and efficient. Whether you get in touch via phone or email, you get a timely response. They call you the day before to confirm the job and are extremely courteous. They are also completely trustworthy which I honestly feel, is worth every penny. I know that they have done the job properly and with no shortcuts. They are highly skilled in what they do and that is charged accordingly. Thank you so much, we certainly won't use anyone else.

Just had a new boiler put in by E W Heating and Plumbing which was far from straightforward as we wanted it relocated, the old pipework was nothing short of a maze but the whole job was done in 2 days and without any fuss. We were charged a fair and reasonable price and are very happy with the work they have done. Would highly recommend them.

I can't recommend EW Heating & Plumbing enough. Have recently had them renew toilets, basins and vanity unit. Ed went above and beyond. Thank you. Very high standard of workmanship, very clean, tidy and professional. Friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. Reasonable pricing, and transparent with the costs of everything. Communication was great, and they let me know about everything from start to finish. Thank you Ed & Rachel! 5*****

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.

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

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.

We had Dorset electrical out to carry out a full rewire of the property, we found the services very pleasing. Given we where worried about the extent of the works required. We ended up moving out the property while the guys carried out their work. They even found us a contractor for making good after. We also upgraded to have camera system installed with a wireless alarm too. Over the moon with the end result and will have no hesitation with recommending the guys at Dorset Electrical Services.
