A lovely lunch, returning as we did after experiencing a splendid group dinner a few weeks earlier. The Lobster bisque is wonderful. A community run pub in a quiet Dorset village. Ideal.

Very tastefully decorated and homely village pub. We had Sunday lunch which was very well presented and taste lovely. Staff really helpful and good natured. Lovey warm greeting from the owner, Margaret, on arrival. Kids potions available. Very enjoyable.

The Cockerel is an absolutely pub located out the back of wimbourne. It’s nicely hidden away but a lovely location to be. The pubs service was amazing, the bar tender was funny and charismatic and was a joy to be served by. The food was incredible, great prices and really tasty! There was also a fire on for the duration of our meal which gave the pub a really nice atmosphere. The pub is quite small so make sure to book in advance!

Stayed at the cockerel for a night when exploring the new forest. This is THE BEST spot for an authentic pub. Hosts were really welcoming and loved the quirky features inside and out. Food was also delicious! Wish I could give more stars!!!! 10/10

We have just met some friends for Sunday lunch at The Cockerel. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. We had a lovely table that was not crowded or too close to other people. The Sunday roast was excellent. Beautifully cooked beef, six veg , roast potatoes and an enormous Yorkshire pudding. The vegetarian option was a mushroom and spinach wellington which was really tasty. We all had sweets which were equally good. We will definitely make the trip out to this fantastic pub again. Thank you

Food was lovely, it’s my second time going. First I can say was better than the second. Unfortunately a gentleman got ill so I felt the attention to diners was taken away. Waiter wasn’t into it (obviously flapping about gentleman) and food (Pie) came out with tough pastry. Didn’t really get a chance to say owt as plates were whisked away. Service was definitely slow but we understood why. Just didn’t feel we got what we paid for food wise.

Had an absolutely delicious lunch here today, liver, bacon and onions for me and a steak and ale pie off of the specials menu for my husband. Lovely atmosphere and really friendly staff, we will certainly be back, next time we will hopefully have room for a pudding as they to sounded delicious. Thank you.

Hadn't been here for a while, but will definitely go back again soon. We both had the Irish beef and Guinness stew with mash and warm chunky bread. It was amazing. It was very filling but still found room for the crumble and custard. Host very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. A real country pub.

Have had a couple of Saturday evenings at The Old Thatch recently. Lovely food (Venison pie, fish pie and apple & berry crumble with custard), efficient and friendly service and accommodating to a large friendly dog, who was happy to receive gravy bones and a bowl of water. Good beer, including real ale on tap. Busy, but everyone seemed to be having such a good time - so much to recommend and will definitely be back there again soon. Thank you for your hospitality x

The Old Thatch in Stapehill, Wimborne, Dorset, a 17th century pub which sits directly opposite historic Stapehill Abbey has a very warm and welcoming feel to it, from the roaring fireplace to the friendly smiling staff. My wife and I decided to try this place out as we had heard great things, and we were not disappointed. We had not booked, but the staff found us a lovely cosy corner next the fire. The seating was very comfy and I could have stayed all afternoon. The staff was very attentive and a drinks order placed within a few minutes of sitting down. After a quick study of the menu the waitress brought over the drinks order and took our food order. The starter arrived in good time and it tasted fantastic, fresh and full of flavour, once finished the waitress wasted no time in clearing our plates and again the main course arrive shortly after hot and freshly cooked. The mains were perfect, the pie was great and the vegetables cooked to perfection, crisp and full of colour. The deserts followed and again food heaven. So what does this place score for us. Atmosphere, 5 stars Service, 5 stars Food quality, 5 stars Price, 5 Stars

Went here for Sunday lunch as a party of six. We sat in the marquee. We were impressed with the service and food. I had the roast pork and roast lamb. There was roast beef as well. I had the Apple and berry crumble, which was delicious too. There is plenty of free parking. I would recommend this place for Sunday roast.

We were there for lunch. 5 adult and 1 children. Staff are friendly and helpful. Lovely restaurant. Lunch came with salad and a main (pasta/ pizza , many options!) . It was 55gbp per person. This is the best cost per value restaurant we ever had in the UK. Booking is advised as they could be very full.

Staying at The 1777 Albion and ordered a takeaway pizza! It was incredible, lovely base, sauce, heaps of cheese, nice pepperoni, just wish it had been cut, with having no cutlery in the room.. but still managed to finish it like a caveman with quite literally only a teaspoon for my tool 🤣

Price of a pint of ale, Abbot/Doom Bar etc around £2.88. Place was packed, service was excellent and the food arrived quickly. For the price, around £10 on average including pint, you really can't complain. Definitely recommend!

Had a lovely lunchtime meal here. It's a large pub with lots of space. You will find the normal varied Weatherspoons menu with something for everyone. Great for vegetarians with lots of options. The staff were all really friendly, and it's very easy to order through the app. Food came quickly and was well cooked.

A lot busier than the Night Jar in the neighbouring town of Ferndale. I ordered from the table, (because no bar service at the moment) a pint of Shipyard for £2.49. Some nice pieces on the wall (see photos). Certainly worth a visit 👍

We visited the Fox & Hounds today with family (5 of us) for an early festive meal and were not disappointed! Our first visit in over 40 years and the whole place has been re-decorated and fitted out to a very high standard while keeping the nice warm & traditional feel an establishment like this deserves. We were greeted and well looked after throughout by their friendly staff. We all made selections from the festive menu and the food was well prepared and presented and very tasty. The location is brilliant for us when getting together with family so we will certainly be returning.

Dog friendly with a large enclosure for your dog to run around in, there is water and toys for them to enjoy. The food is lovely and well presented we had a family birthday party there with two pets and was given an area at the Saied because of the dogs or we can go outside.. I felt it may have been slightly understaffed as it took awhile to clear our plates apart from that we enjoyed our visit and loved the dog enclosure (even the dog treats they gave us)

Recently taken over by new management and OMG Amazing!! Visited last Sunday for a roast dinner ....DEVINE! I noticed then they did breakfast...so here I am back again a week later! How on earth it isn't rammed for breakfast is beyond me! Beautiful coffee and food! Fabulous hosts. I cannot recommend this breakfast enough. I intend on making regular visits and trying all the delicious choices available!

The pub is under new management. Decent sized car park. Despite signs at the entrance warning you to register your car at reception or risk a penalty charge, you no longer have to do that. Perhaps they should take the signs down? We pre-booked over the telephone and this was doing using an AI program. Sat in the corner of the large dining space which was well lit. A few candles dotted around for "atmosphere ". Drinks order was taken immediately and soon arrived. Abbot Ale was fine. Food was fairly quickly ordered with a wait as the kitchens were busy. Meal arrived in good order. Steak and Ale pie was heavy on gravy light on meat. Nevertheless a proper plateful. The manager was keen to point out a new dogs' garden facility he had just created. Would I go again? Yes.

A regular visitor as we enjoy the vast variety of indoor and outdoor stock on display. I chose the slabs for my garden today, at a very reasonable price. So much to see, and dog friendly...thank you. Can recommend the coronation chicken. Staff look after you, bring your coffees etc to your table where the ambience is warm and welcoming.

Was very impressed by complimentary parking right in the town centre! Very nice receptionist. Hotel is a beautiful old building and room was lovely.. breakfast was lovely as was the Xmas decor in the restaurant area. Wifi worked for my business purposes. Given the central parking had a sort walk after breakfast taking in the charming old town. All good!

From start to finish excellent attentive,prompt and friendly service.I booked a single room for 3 nights but the room was spacious and the bed was a small double not a single with the most comfortable mattress and good quality bedding.The en suite was good size with a bath.Generous restockingbof tea/coffee in the room.Breakfast was very generous and top quality produce with speedy but friendly service.The evening meal was value for money.The room and whole hotel is immaculately clean.But best of all every member of staff couldn't do enough to help me such as carrying my cases to/from room.I would recommend this lovely old lady of a hotel to anyone.Thank you all for a lovely stay.

If you are ever looking for a very honest , great food, excellent customer service and experience then you're in luck. As well as the food choices the staff really make your visit here memorable, and they are the key element that will make you want to revisit the Olive Branch again and again. Thanks to Gregg and his team at Olive Branch.

They got every order spot on, the food was fantastic, the staff were attentive but not too much they pretty much left us to it and the atmosphere was brilliant. Thank you to the all the staff for making it a lovely day.

AMAZING roast may even be the best I've had at a pub. We rung ahead and got the last of the day and it was still SO fresh, well seasoned and beautiful. We got it on the half price offer so two roasts, 2 portions of cauliflower cheese and two soft drinks for £30. Pub it's self was clean and nicely decorated, staff were super friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend and return if in the area 😀
