Prepare to be overwhelmed with choice, that's sums up my first experience of dining here. The wine list offers 200 bottles so there's something to suit all palates and wallets. If that's too much and you'd prefer to sample a few small glasses throughout the evening then flights of wine are available. The staff were very helpful. Choosing cheese and meats doesn't have to be as prescriptive as the meal board states. If you'd prefer more cheese and less meat that's ok. Plus you can add more of either if you have a larger appetite. You can have as much bread and biscuits as you want too. Flavours and presentation were both excellent. Table water is provided too to keep the body in balance for fluids. A our visit was for a Birthday and some candles were popped into the cheese, a nice touch. Will definitely be returning for our next special occasion.

We went here to celebrate a birthday. We were 3 people and got the Party board. This was plenty of food for the 3 of us. We actually could not eat it all. The price was reasonable, the presentation was really good. The service was really good as well, our waitress was very nice and helpful. The atmosphere was perfect, soft lights and wood decor. I don't really have any complaint. Also booking the table was easy and relatively fast. Well done

The food was great! The service was fantastic and friendly! You couldn’t beat the atmosphere! If you love cheese & wine you have gone to the right place! But if you don’t like wine they serve various other drinks! I would highly recommend and we will come back!

Another of my 'go to' places in and around Wimborne- if you like to chat and graze, love your wines and spirits and adore your meats and cheese, this is the place for you! The selection of wines is quite literally staggering and the staff are all incredibly knowledgeable about the meats, cheeses and wines. Not sure what you want to drink? Try a 'flight' - 3 sample glasses of wines (or spirits) to taste so you can better decide which you want- they also do desserts..... not that I've ever had enough room for one!

A group of 9 went for my Dad's 70th. We pre-ordered the tasting menu and they were very accomodating with our dietary requirements. We arrived early for a drink in the very cute private garden - they were lots of options including cocktails and non-alcoholic options. We sat down to dinner and had 6 wonderful courses. Everyone loved it and we were impressed with the list of where all the ingredients were from on the back of the menu. The wine flight was very well paired matching each course spectacularly. The service was super friendly and very welcoming from the beginning, they even put a candle on the sweet dessert so we could sing happy birthday. Thank you very much for looking after us! I would definitely recommend going for a visit. Very affordable for a tasting menu and a lovely, warming homely venue.

Rating: 5 / 5
Had the pleasure of enjoying our first, and not last, experience of dining at La Fosse. Fantastic food that was cooked perfectly and professionally presented. Added to this, a most considerate and attentive waitress/manager made it a very special way to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. Thank you chef !! We look forward to seeing you both again in the near future and wish you continued success 👍

I recently dined at La Fosse in Cranbourne and had a very positive experience. The taster menu, complemented by a selection of wines, was both tasty and well-prepared. The food quality was impressive and the prices were very reasonable, offering good value for money. A recommended spot for a pleasant meal in Cranborne!
Rating: 5 / 5
Just stayed and had the taster menu for two with wine flights. Host and family are so welcoming and happy to share tips for the village. Suggest a shower tray mat in shower and bathroom for safety and hand towel and perhaps biscuits with tea tray , but otherwise the rooms are great, comfortable, great coffee maker, cosy, and we had a great night's sleep. The rooms and venue have lots of lovely, quirky and enjoyable extras. Food for the evening meal was brilliant and different. Don't hesitate to visit and stay. More 5 star plus than 5 star 😃 We'll be back! Thanks ALL.

Wonderful place to eat. My husband and I visited the area and we must say that we really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. The wonderful staff was helpful and lovely.
Rating: 4 / 5
Decent food, excellent friendly service. Went here for group Sunday pub lunch following a walk. Food was cooked to a good standard and staff were very accommodating without being fussy. However the meal felt slightly on the pricey side (over £10 for most starters and £22± for most main courses) . Would otherwise be happy to recommend. Thank you
Rating: 5 / 5
The pub itself is a historic building, beautiful area and fantastic food and drink. Some might say it's expensive, but when you learn where the ingredients come from and the owners care and devotion it's a whole experience. I can't comment on the rooms as I've never used them.

We didn't stay here in accomodation as we stayed about a 5min walk away. The staff we excellent and the food was amazing. Although they run out of white bait as a starter the chef offered a mix of calamari and what white bait was left. Can't fault the food and the staff. As a table of 11 it was amazing and they were hosting a party also. Well done to all staff on Saturday night. Oh if you visit, I would recommend the scotch egg starter, stunning. Well done

We booked a last minute room last night as we were meant to stay at the Royal Oak but they messed up and sold our room to someone else. So we were panicking as we were 4hours away from home at 18:30pm. I found the Langton arms on booking.com and immediately booked it. We had a warm welcome and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay lovely. The food was amazing and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. Thank you to everyone at the Langton arms for making what was stressed and sad night to a one that we will never forget. And we are truly hoping to be back in the future!

We enjoyed a group Christmas Dinner at the Stocks and it was brilliant. The booking was easy, organising each families orders was great and everything was super smooth! The food was delicious, we mostly chose from the Christmas menu and it was fabulous. A great pub, run by wonderful people. Highly recommended.

Came in yesterday the 17th for a festive meal. Despite how busy they were the food and service was amazing. We both went for the vegetable broth, belly pork and syrup sponge with ice cream. It was all stunning. Thank you Stocks Inn. See you in the New Year.

Visited with family party of 9 ppl including 1 wheelchair user and 1 infant. Much appreciated that they were able to take our large party booking which was last minute following a family function the day before, especially in the lead up to Xmas on a Saturday. Menu was basic pub grub with plenty enough choice but good quality, hot and food was good. I had chicken curry which was lovely and others enjoyed the lasagna and fish and chips. Portions generous. Service decent and our food came in a timely enough fashion and simultaneously. There was a service charge but would say prices were pretty average and decent enough value for money. Easy to park. My father is a wheelchair user and the ramps, doorways, toilet etc worked well for him despite it being an older building with plenty of character. There were also baby change facilities in the disabled loo.Quite old fashioned decor but kind of part of the charm of a traditional English pub.

Brilliant for brunch - yesterday was the first time we’ve been back since the new kitchen has gone in. We were both wowed by “Dom’s Special” which was the best avocado, salsa, chilli jam, poached egg on sourdough: accompanied by perfect cappuccino and tea. Thank you!

We had a fab time here this morning. It was very wet and muddy after all the rain we've had recently but my kids loved splashing on the trail. I even enjoyed a hot coffee while they played in the play area and my 3yo was thrilled with her gluten free brownie! Fab facilities, clean toilets and baby changing area. We will be back 😀

Gullivers Farm Shop & Kitchen is a gem for families and the community! We thoroughly enjoyed the Christmas events for our little ones! The food is fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared, with superb coffee that’s hard to beat. The shop is full of organic, local produce, and the whole place has a warm, welcoming vibe. We loved the family-friendly activities like meeting the farm animals and the play area for kids. What really stands out is the amazing work they do to support adults with varying support needs, creating opportunities and a real sense of community. It’s a fantastic place for great food, great coffee, and a meaningful experience!

I’ve been a regular customer at Gulliver’s Farm Shop for quite some time, and it’s been wonderful to watch it grow and evolve. They offer a delightful menu featuring biodynamic food straight from their farm, and the quality of the food is outstanding, especially for the price. One of the highlights for us is that when an adult orders a meal, children's meals are just £1 – a fantastic value for families! What makes Gulliver's even more special is their commitment to employing individuals with disabilities, providing meaningful support and opportunities to adults with varying needs. It feels great to support such a worthy cause while enjoying a meal. The play area is perfect for kids to run around, and the play trail is a lovely addition after a meal. I highly recommend Gulliver’s Farm Shop to friends and will continue to do so."

We were camping at Dapplewood campsite just down the road and walked to the Old Inn for drinks and an evening meal. Staff are very friendly and made a fuss of our dog, couldn't be more helpful. I can recommend Tanglefoot ale it went down very well, well all 5 did. I had the Old Inn pizza with french fried & my partner had the beef stroganoff, all the food was freshly cooked and very tasty. Highly recommend coming here if your in the area. We'll be back soon 😋

Went here on 24/09 for a last minute big booking midday sit-down and I honestly don't think I've been to a better pub in my life. Great staff, great food and ensconced in a wonderful old building full of character. If you're thinking about visiting, stop dillydallying and get on with it. Even better considering we gave them an hour's notice. I recommend the Beef Short Rib.

Been here twice recently to sample the steak and we were not disappointed at all. Great place with good atmosphere and service! Both times the meals were excellent, timing between courses perfect and the staff were friendly and accommodating. Will be going again next week. Could be an ideal "first dinner date" type of place or just somewhere to enjoy a very nice meal. If you haven't been there, definitely try it!

Wow! Was not expecting that. Blown away by the food, the ambiance was nice and the staff were attentive and considerate. 100% recommend! I had the wild mushrooms starter, belly pork and cheesecake. The potato terrine was to die for. This was our first time and we will be back regularly! Thank you.

Nine of us went to the Pig for a family pre Christmas lunch yesterday (Saturday). We had pre-ordered which made things so much easier and slick; and every dish which was produced was absolutely delicious. The starters were generous….I had the brisket of beef; so, so good! Mr Husband had the trout which was carpaccio with wasabi and in a beetroot kvass. My son in law had fried Brie along with several others and those babies were melt in the mouth yum. Main courses; the belly pork was to die for. Most of us had that one! Duck was also excellent. And whilst I don’t always have pudding, the special was a Christmas themed bread pudding and it was fabulous. Again; a very generous portion; with a lovely crunch to the outside and buttery and sweet on the inside. All the other desserts looked equally wonderful. The staff were charming and so tolerant of all the demands of a big group of (mostly older!) people. Especially Jamie. Thank you Wimborne Pig! We will be back for sure.

Had a meal here tonight. One of the best tasting meals I have had out in a long long time. Presentation was on point, as was the list of local ingredients. Opted for the mushroom starter and pork belly main. It was exciting just tasting it all. Atmosphere is brilliant. We will definately be going again. Brilliant 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

We booked a table at the Wimborne Pig for our wedding anniversary and had an absolutely wonderful experience! We came with our 11-month old baby and the staff were absolutely brilliant and very helpful around her. The food was superb! The most delicious pork belly I've ever had- cooked to perfection, full of flavour and garnished with blueberry sauce. My husband had the beef burger and thoroughly enjoyed it. We both have allergies and I'm currently on a very restrictive gluten, dairy and egg free one. This wasn't an issue at all- the meal was adapted to cater for it. Overall a five star experience and a must try when in Wimborne!

We stayed in one of the feature rooms. Beautiful and roomy. The shower was a bit temperamental but wasn’t a problem. Room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The food was of a very high standard (breakfast and evening meals). And the staff were exceptional. We would highly recommend staying here in a very beautiful part of the world.

On a rainy , windy day we were made to feel most welcome. The rooms were comfortable , clean and well appointed, with everything you needed and more. Lovely biscuits and fresh milk to accompany teas, coffee etc. The evening meal was excellent with all round fresh ingredients; the pie was sensational. An ideal place from which to explore Dorset and beyond. I can highly recommend it.

A previous frequent and regular stop for us on our way West. Now returned after a few years since moving to Dorset. We love the location and the ambience hasn't changed at all. A hearty and friendly welcome by Tim, but entirely appropriate and not overfriendly. Excellent and a credit to the pub. Served by Shannon who was equally superb and dealt with our difficult friends very well indeed. We will definitely return soon, but on our own........... Thank you for an excellent lunch and superb service.

This was such a lovey visit on New Years Eve late afternoon. The service was exemplary by all and the food we ordered was delicious especially the lobster prawn linguine. We will certainly not leave it too long before our next visit. Five stars all round!
