The Best Restaurants in Portesham, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

Nice ambience. Well cooked food, huge portions! Friendly hosts. A proper pub. Vegan pie was excellent.

Food is amazing! First time eating here and the food was one of the best meals ive had. Also i won the meat raffle. Been meaning to write a reveiw for a while, so sorry for the delay. Really enjoyed the evening

Lovely village pub able to accommodate a large group at short notice. Cracking hospitality and top quality proper pub grub. Highly recommended. Would definitely visit again if we are in the area. Thank you

Had a light bite and drinks. Very nice. My 5 star review is really for Liz. She was extremely busy, single handedly running the bar, taking food orders, serving orders, clearing tables and taking payment. All this on her own, very unfair. But done with a lovely smile and friendly nature. Treat this woman well, she is worth her weight in gold.

Went for Sunday lunch, very nice and friendly. Nothing on the menu my son liked but the kitchen obliged by doing him burger and chips. Definitely worth the visit. 😄 👍

Lovely pub and location. I was on the way back to London and needed a pit stop. As soon as I walked in I was greeted with a big smile and taken to a table. I didn't have to wait too long as the only waitress working was just like wonder woman. I run a restaurant in London and would give her a job anytime.

Stopped when leaving Haven to go Devon. Was so glad there was a space for the motor home that’s 7.5m long (only room for one, in case you are travelling with one). Was the best breakfast I’ve had! So nice, shop was lovely to wonder around whilst breakfast was cooking. The staff were friendly and so accommodating. Food was so nice and deli items so enticing we couldn’t leave without taking another few bits with us for our trip. The quiche was absolutely delicious. Thank you! I would recommend a stop here to anyone for eating 😃

Excellent breakfast. Good quality. Efficient friendly service. Staying at The Kings Arms in Portesham and Duck's Farm Shop Café is where you have breakfast included in your room rate. Can thoroughly recommend it.👍

Very nice place. We stopped there to have a Coffee to take away and some souvenirs for my family. Breakfast looked great. I must go back there the next I'm in UK and have some Eggs Benedict !!! (This time we already had breakfast at the hotel)

Stopped in for a drink after a walk. Lovely old pub with friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere. Older reviews say there’s no draught beer, but it’s under new management now and there were plenty of options when we came.

We came in the Summer to have a ploughman's, and found it so good we came back for another one, on the last day of our holiday! After having stayed overnight in their accommodation, and consumed a delicious breakfast, I can't recommend it enough. The staff have always been friendly, amenable and accommodating. The room was clean and tidy. Finally, the view of St Catherine's Chapel was amazing.
