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.

The best eggs in the UK. It’s unbelievable how hard it is to get a great fried egg 🤣🤣🤣. Love your theme nights too. The stark night was our favourite ❤️

Lovely traditional pub with a wide range of beer and good food. We visited on a Thursday evening and it was pretty busy. I think it is one of the only pubs in Stourpaine, but service was great and the food was lovely. I had the steak pudding and chips, which I've not had for years but it was gorgeous. My wife had ham, egg and chips, which again she said tasted delicious. The pub has a whole raft of service mens hats dotted throughout the place and has had a visit by King Charles when he was a prince. Lovely place, well worth a visit.

You can always rely on quality food and great service. There are always fantastic events scheduled throughout the year, from live music to steam engine displays. A fine example of a great pub.

Absolute gem of a pub, excellent Sunday lunch which was massive. Staff were lovely and very attentive. The pub was lovely, warm, inviting and quirky. Have been before for steam up but had to re visit to try the food and so glad we did. Lovely experience and we will definitely return

The pubs staff were friendly and funny, not just robots and also not too cheeky it becomes weird. The portions were the size youd give yourself at a buffet. The price was fine. And the menu had a decent selection. I had the pie and it almost had more stake than my girlfriends ribeye. Highly recommend.

We had drinks, dinner and then stayed over in our motorhome and it was absolutely wonderful! The food was exceptional, the service was excellent and the pub and beer garden are great. We were made to feel very welcome and would definitely recommend!

A Dorset gem. I've only ever had the Sunday Carvery here because it's fantastic value (£14.50) and absolutely delicious. I always end up asking for a box so there is bubble and squeak to go home with! The staff are great and friendly. I'd say this is a proper pub and Sunday lunch experience! Booking very much recommended they are popular.

I have driven past this pub on more occasions than I could probably mention and always said must try that one. Well today was the day and so pleased that I did! I can honestly say this was one of the best (if not the best) pub food I have ever had. Our table of four all had different dishes and every single one was outstanding quality with a generous portion. Personally I opted for the ploughman's asking for it without the meat element which wasn't a problem at all. An excellent selection, fresh and tasty. I would highly recommend booking, even for lunch, as it was busy, and it's really not surprising why. The service was friendly and a good pub atmosphere made it a great experience and all at a fair price too. This will most definitely not be the last visit to this highly recommended Dorset pub. If you haven't been then add it to your 'must visit' list, but don't leave it as long as I did.

Had a breakfast here Saturday 26th October. Very welcoming staff, happy to host our dog and great place to bring him as plenty of room and far enough from other guest as not crammed next to other tables. Nice food and great coffee, lovely setting.

Always love coming to this bar. Beer and food always great. Love the sharer on the new menu I apparently had one of the first ones.

I cant comment on food as we only stopped by for a quick half. I am so pleased we did. . . A lovely venue steeped in history, with lots of original atrefacts recovered from the original brewery which is actively being demolished by the look of it, sadly. . . I have drank and enjoyed Badger beers for some years and was over the moon when I found that it was based in Blandford Forum, as we passed through on a daytrip. A very worthwhile stop off.

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.

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.

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!

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 !

I am very nervous of dentists and had not visited the dentist in years due to this. The dental nurses and dentist at the Blandford practice are very calming and patient. The dentist put my mind at ease and explained everything to me so that I could understand. The prices are fair and there are repayment options available that take the concern of being able to afford treatment away. I would highly recommend this dental practice and have lost alot of my fear of going to the dentist!

Cannot recommend highly enough. A phobia of dental procedures had stopped me from going to a dentist before, I hadn’t been in at least 20 years, and was absolutely dreading my appointment. Dr Singh was so lovely and patient, explained everything really carefully and was so empathetic. I went to two appointments (for three filings in total and a clean) and it was all fine, totally painless. Dentist was so careful and attentive all through the procedure, constantly checking if I was feeling ok. Completely put my mind at ease and helped me to overcome my anxiety! All round fantastic service, professional, friendly and caring.

We stopped off for lunch here between destinations based on Google reviews and it did not disappoint. Great setting - a real gastro pub. Thatched. Very rustic decor. Lovely staff - very accommodating - and fabulous food. Great value for money. Would definitely recommend.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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 passed The True Lovers Knot many times we had a chance to stop off there today. It’s a true old fashion pub with a log burner which was alight and we were lucky enough to get a table right next to it. We were hoping to have a Sunday roast. Because we hadn’t booked a table we thought we were out of luck. However they were very accommodating and said we could have the table till 14.30 which was fantastic. We ordered two roast turkey dinners which come with all the trimmings and was absolutely delicious. You definitely won’t leave feeling hungry. We will definitely return but make sure we book. Thank you.

Food is lovely, we had 3 courses. Very welcoming pub. Staff are friendly and helpful, cute room too, a little chilly but the heater works. Would stay again!

Popped in here with kids on way back from the beach. I'm old fashioned and do appreciate the bar staff giving it some 'I'll be with you in a moment' patter when I approached the bar. Acknowledgement. Nice. The service was friendly and more importantly the lemonades and shandy were ice cold. Kids could happily play on the crazy golf style gravel at the top of the beer garden. Can't comment on rooms or food but it felt a good place to be.

Atmosphere nice, waitress lovely and friendly. £17 for a double gin and a pint seemed steep. Food delicious however not much as to portion size. I would come back if the menu was a bit more wider, not much choice. I only liked 2 things on the menu, would love to see jacket potatoes as an option with a side salad! Too hot for hot meals this year of the year.
