Had a pre-Xmas Sunday get together and the venue and staff were absolutely awesome - would have scored them a 5 but the veg was too sparse on all the roasts (albeit they did bring us more when asked) and what should have been the absolute bomb of a dessert didn’t quite hit the mark as the sauce to melt the rock hard chocolate case hadn’t been heated up. Will definitely return - it’s a fab venue, with fab staff and food 👍👍

Reserved a table for 6, for their XMas 'festive menu'. Service was friendly, food was served pretty promptly. Generally everyone really enjoyed their food - only feedback was veggies were a bit hard. Atmosphere is pretty cosy, ... would recommend for an XMas visit.

We ordered a takeaway from here after visiting for lunch last week (which was great! Fab food and service). Large choice of menus, if you can’t find something you like….id be confused! Ordered the roast pork, my partner had the trio. Wow, so tasty! Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Had to change an option through the phone as I had an allergy and the staff were beyond helpful. Will defo recommend to my friends!

We visited on Christmas day and had an absolutely amazing lunch. The service by the restaurant and bar staff was fantastic and every detail had been thought about to make a special meal on Christmas day that bit more memorable. The table looked beautiful and the rustic bread on arrival and a Christmas card was a lovely touch, the main courses were delicious - I had the traditional turkey roast and the meat was spot on! A big thank you to Katie, Bridie, Sophie and the rest of the team who all looked after us so well and really made a it a Christmas Day to remember.

Went with my mum and it was such a beautiful pub! We sat by the chandelier which was amazing as well as our experience at Drusilla’s Inn. The wine was delicious as well as the food. The flavours from our meals stayed in our mouth’s till we got home - really amazing. The staff were kind and chatty and the owners are lovely too. Both owners spoke to all customers after their meals which was very special. 5/5 would come again!!

Had a great Sunday lunch here. The food is absolute excellent, really good starters and the roasts were delicious. It’s good to see the pub busy again after standing empty for so long, and the new owners have done a nice job of refurbishing it. The only slight comment was that service was a little slow (particularly with drinks) but I’m sure this will get better over the coming weeks. All of the staff were really friendly and we’ll definitely be coming back.

Went for Sunday lunch today. Very generous portions for the roast beef, which all tasted fantastic. Reasonably priced too. The sticky toffee pudding was delicious. It was great to see how busy the pub was, having reopened just a couple of weeks ago. We will definitely be back!

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 🤣

I’ve just had the best snails I’ve had in my life, and the steak melted in my mouth the only downside is I’ll have to travel 3 hours to visit you again !!

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.

The best pub in Dorset, the food is always amazing, and regularly updated so always something new to try every few months! The pub food looks amazing, and is so super tasty, the team at the Monmouth ash is amazing and all so welcoming! Also was asked for allergies so they are checking which is brilliant!

Camping nearby, we had 2 meals at the Monmouth Ash. I recommend the baked camenbert sharer it's delicious. Service is good. Lots of choice on the menu. Plenty of parking.

The Monmouth Ash has a really cosy atmosphere, making it a very pleasant place to eat. The menu is not huge, but the choices available are all top quality. Prices are a little higher than we were hoping for, but not ridiculously high, and they were definitely justified by the quality of the food. The staff are very friendly, courteous and inviting. We'd definitely go back there if we're in the area again.

Been driving past this place for over 38+ years and have never entered!! What a great find.. obviously it's not the same pub as it was so many years ago but just a beautiful set up and a great place to eat as a family, individual,music supplied. Great outdoor area to eat and the inside is tastefully set with period decoration with a modern twist. Great service and attentive staff, the Roast was lovely,gravy nice and hot and tasty and meats cooked lovely the only down side from my perspective was the Yorkshire's were a little over done and hence dry and I like my tatties crispy!! however this was dutifully made up with extra pork crackerling💕🥰💯💕 Can't wait to come in an evening to outdoor lights on in a crispy Autum evening supping a beer and eating!! Thankyou👍

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.

Gorgeous pub with lots of atmosphere. We stopped for tea halfway on our trip on a Saturday in June. It opens at 11 am, it was not busy when we arrived though got much busier while we were there. Friendly staff took our order. The brownie was delicious. Loved browsing in the artisan shop just inside the entrance, there are lovely unique gifts if you need something for a birthday. Toilets were clean. There's a large outside area where kids can play while parents have their entertainment. Great place, will visit again if I'm in the area.

23 of us had a Christmas menu lunch after a local walk in morning. Fran and Mya + chef gave us excellent service. Food was good and hot . A few more veg for some dishes would have been appreciated. A good day and happy social occasion.

Impulsive stop for supper at this presentable & welcoming country pub/hotel was repaid by friendly, efficient customer service, and thoughtfully prepared and presented meals. Both the pork steak and the half chicken dishes couldn't be faulted. We were delighted by the whole experience. Good choice of well maintained beers was icing on our cake! Highly recommended!

Was passing by today on our travels and decided to stop for lunch. We are so thankful we did. The staff were lovely, very friendly, food came fast and perfectly cooked, great atmosphere, couldn't fault a thing, even the music was great! We didn't want to leave! Will be stopping again on our way back through.

Very pleasant countryside pub. Although given its location, it can be very busy. Plenty of room inside and out. Can recommend an outside table when the weather is hot. Nice selection of beers. I had Timothy Taylor's Boltmaker and Flack Manor Double Drop, very nice they were too

My new favourite pub! Tony and Steve are amazing, such friendly welcoming hosts. Absolutely love the food, always super tasty. Went for dinner this evening and impressed as always. So much so I'd half munched my starter before realising I wanted a photo for a review. Best mixed grill I have had in years, the steak melted in my mouth. I was in heaven. I cannot wait to see what else these amazing new managers have in store. Already waiting for Christmas bookings to be released as 100% sure that they will make the season AMAZING. I cannot wait to make more memories in such a lovely pub. See you soon!

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)

Had a fantastic visit here recently. The food was excellent, the staff were super accommodating, and the atmosphere was spot on—you can tell a lot of thought has gone into it. Had a quick chat with the manager, Steve, who’s clearly working hard to make this place a success. Definitely 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.
