The breakfast menu l found to be ABIT disappointed as the large breakfast as the eggs were over cooked and not runny as we had a party of 20+ people and the baked beans came in a large bowl for a table of four to share and was so hot it was microwaved to high a temperature. Sorry but I won't be coming back as I felt it was not value for money

Had another lovely Sunday roast meal at the Stableyard restaurant in Broadwindsor. Some of our party had pork and others had chicken, lovely hot food, prompt service. Thank you to Linda, Sam and all the staff. Also, thanks for keeping us supplied with your delicious cakes. Next on the agenda is to have the cooked breakfast.

Fantastic Sunday roast pork. Everything cooked to perfection, lovely thick slices of meat. Chocolate brownie sundae was really good. Struggled to finish it all. Great place to eat. Will definitely come back & recommend to others.

Wow wow wow!! The best lunch! The steak pie was absolutely delicious, with melt in the mouth chunks of steak. Luxury hot chocolate was the best hot chocolate I've ever had. And the coffee was smooth and delicious. We were very full after a big plate of food, but the cakes were way too tempting to resist so took some to go. Absolute local treasure! Great menu from local produce. Thank you!

What a find! Great food, welcoming environment and team, dog friendly. Stayed in the area and this was our local. Settled in for the evening with decent beers and board games. It didn't disappoint. No food pics as it looked so delicious, we tucked straight in. Cheers lads.

Good food and a very comfortable dining experience. Service was excellent and food is always served freshly cooked. Plenty of seating outside with views across the whole valley. Great place to watch the sun go down. Dog friendly and a good children's menu. Recommended to book for an inside table or larger group.

Lovely location, very nice pub, friendly staff. We stopped off for a quick pint randomly but we're probably going to visit again after our break as the food looked very nice! I would definitely recommend it if you're in the area.

Just enjoyed the most delicious lunch here! Four of us plus 4 large damp dogs! The staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The service was excellent and the food was absolutely fantastic! Compliments to the chef and thanks to Luke who looked after us so well! We will definitely return! A gem!

What an excellent find! This cafe is clean, modern and comfortable and serves great quality delicious snacks and drinks. I had a mouthwatering panini and was served in a very friendly manner. The coffee was great too. Highly recommend a visit. I will definitely be back.

The Red Lion pub is a fantastic find. The owner is so friendly and welcoming, the food looks and tastes really good and they stock Powderkeg gluten free beer alongside beers from the brewery . This visit we had cheesy chips - best cheesy chips ever.

Stopped in for some food and found the pub very pleasant. Quite stylish inside with nice decor and lots of seating. Food was good although medium rare steak was over cooked. Well priced for food and drink and we'd visit again.

Just had a faultless meal at Brassica - there were 8 of us, a mixture of meat, pesces and veggies. The food was outstanding - something for everyone and arrived quickly. Vibe is very informal and friendly, we loved all the people who served us. We ate most of the things on the menu and every dish was exceptional. Can't wait to come again.

A solid 5/5 for us. Could not fault a thing. Tried both Spanish wines and the French rose at a £5 for small glass…you don’t need to spend more. Absolutely fab. Sign of a good restaurant is spot on house wine. Lovely service from all and my steak was melt in my mouth. We will be back. Thank you all !

4.2 is very harsh for the amazing food we ate! Keep cooking like this and you won’t be that for long! Had the Sprung Salad with chicken (thanks for accommodating) and it was one of the best salads I’ve eaten out. Beautiful balance of nuts, leaves asparagus and feta. Really impressive thanks again 👍🏼

We were served by Ruby- absolutely amazing service and wonderful food! Catered to non-standard allergens with kindness and respect! We had the confit tomatoes with feta and the autumn salad, would recommend both for anyone visiting. We didn’t get the chance to try the pear frangipane, which we would love to visit to try again.

Came here today, after walking from our campsite at Graston Copse through Burton Bradstock village. A warm welcome by a member of staff & shown to our outside table for 4 with 3 dogs. Our waitress took our drinks order & returned after a few minutes to take our food order. She was very friendly and attentive, giving time for a chat despite being extremely busy. Wait for our food was minimal and when it arrived it was hot, tasty & well presented. Back ground music was pleasant, giving the Mediterranean feeling due to the sunshine. Wouldn't hesitate in returning if we are in the area again .... thank you.

Huge muscles in a nicely balanced blue cheese cream sauce. The fish chowder was also lovely, great tasting fish and fresh veg. We enjoyed on a wet and windy day, outside seating had heaters which warmed us up nicely. Would recommend after a walk.

This is a well loved beach cafe which has beautiful scenic views, it is very popular and rightly so. The menu is mainly fish and seafood dishes. However, they do a smashing full English breakfast up to 11.30 am. I will post pics. This dog friendly beach cafe has a carpark close by, but if you choose to walk along the cliff top path or the lower paths, you will walk within the most beautiful scenery. This is a totally table service venue, so once you are seated, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the view. Prices are reasonable.

We arrived at 11.20, just in time to order breakfast. We were lucky to get the table on the edge of the 'tent' overlooking the beach. Despite being quite busy we received very efficient service. The food arrived within 15- 20 min, then our hot drinks. We had 3 x full English and egg Benedict on muffin with bacon. Everyone enjoyed it. The only nuisance were a few wasps but not a lot to spoil our experience.

I stayed here overnight in my car camper and felt safe. I have a bacon and cheese wrap, a toasted tea cake and a latte, it was over £11. Apparently it's closing down as the council want it for themselves and will be gating it off.

We needed a pit stop to empty our bladders and grab a coffee and drove past this place. Toilets were clean and pleasant to use and we picked up the most delicious home made cake. A bit pricey at £2.50 but my god was it worth it! The best cake I've had in ages! The lady that served us was polite and friendly and we didn't have to wait long at all. Definitely worth a visit if you need a snack and toilet break when on the road

We travel in a motorhome and usually wild camp. Our motorhome has two 230 Ah batteries powering a 3000 watt inverter. The batteries are charged by two 150 watt solar panels. This allows us to stay off grid more or less permanently (we just have to find water from time to time). Anyway, this rest area has toilets but no water taps, the toilets are closed at night due to vandalism. Most of the area for parking is sloping slightly but some spots are very good. We stayed here for two night without a problem. There are no staying overnight restrictions. There are doggie walking areas. At night it is very quiet.
