We stumbled across this place on a short visit to Shaftesbury. Such an amazing building and interior, but by far the best bits are the staff and the food. Absolutely delicious food and incredibly friendly and helpful staff. It was quite quiet during our visit which can have an impact on the atmosphere - depending on what you're after - but I'd definitely recommend a visit!

Wow had a fabulous meal and dessert last night 05/03/24 here. Look at the pics and decide yourself. Wonderful service too. Love and thank you.

Lovely old chapel and the decor was fantastic, ordered onion rings to start and despite the price of £5.90 they were frozen, albeit well cooked and crispy. The Hawaiian pizza was basic and uniform, I was expecting a more hand tossed rustic base but the ingredients were good quality. The chips again were basic frozen fries and quite costly at £5.90. I wasn’t introduced to the specials board which disappointed me too. I’m glad I went to try the place but wouldn’t return.

First visit this evening and we will certainly visit again. Staff helpful and attentive, it was a relaxed atmosphere, and we were certainly not rushed. The food was excellent, the salmon and asparagus was superb and the chicken in cream and mushroom sauce was equally as good. Good selection of pasta and pizza dishes on the menu and a great kids menu. We had a lovely evening, thank you San Tonino.

A group of us went here for a meal to celebrate a birthday. I messaged beforehand to check they were able to provide a vegan alternative. They replied quickly with a list of different items they could adapt to be vegan. I opted for the Calzone as I haven't had the chance to have one since going vegan. It was absolutely delicious! The man (who I presume owns the place) was incredibly helpful and attentive. I fully recommend eating here! I'm looking forward to returning.

We had a lovely family meal last night with my brother who is in UK for a visit, always very friendly staff and a really nice atmosphere, food is always fantastic too.
Rating: 5 / 5
This was our first time ordering from here and we travelled from Stalbridge following the positive online reviews. With a baby due anyday now here's hoping the old wives tales are true 😁 The food was fantastic, hot , tasty and fresh. I have a smaller appetite so ordered the smaller portion deal and even this will last me 2 days. The chicken was cooked perfectly, nan bread was delicious I can't recommend this enough for those with a smaller appetite a great idea. Chilli chicken was delicious and fresh flavours not artificial heat. Again perfect dish . We will most definitely be visiting again .

Delicious food. So glad we decided to try the good here. I've only had takeaways, but I'm sure the restaurant side is equally as good.

Had a really good breakfast today and really good value. the coffee was lovely too. I thought it was excellent value for money too. I was very hungry and hungover this morning so started eating it before I took the photo.

Christmas dinner party and there were at least 2 other parties there too. Staff were lovely. Food ok only critisism was my parsnip wasnt cooked enough, but considering they were catering for 50+ people I think they did very well. Thank you for a very enjoyable evening. Just 1 more thing..... please wipe the tables with something that does not leave a sticky residue.

The Sunday Carvery was the best. We booked a table the staff were very attentive . The carvery was the best i have had. Food was fantastic , a great variety of roast meats and super vegs to compliment. All staff were engaging and it was a most satisfying and most enjoyable visit. The price of the Carvery was great. Will be back from Kingston upon Thames. Many thanks.

Four of us stopped for a meal. We had not booked but this was not a problem. Service was quick and attentive despite the fact that it was 5pm on a Saturday. All four of us were very pleased with our meals. I had a beef lasagne, probably the largest one I have ever had and it was very enjoyable. We will definitely call again. We'll done to all the staff!

Went here to have Sunday Dinner. The staff are very friendly. Large selection of food at a reasonable price. Being a vegetarian, plumped for the Nut Roast. They make the best I have ever tasted. When inquired was told that it is made by the owner herself, superb. Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Disabled friendly car park, small step to enter premises. Would highly recommend

Popped in for dinner this evening on the way home. The bar staff were lovely very friendly and accommodating. We had the mixed grill and Chicken Tikka. Wow is all I can say. The portion sizes were huge , food was fresh hot and very tasty. My partner fancies himself as a mixed grill king and he said this was the nicest he had ever had . I loved the curry there was so much chicken , hot fluffy rice and a lovely soft nan bread presented beautifully. We will definitely be returning very soon . Great value for money , lovely little pub , good food and lovely staff.

The Grosvenor Arms
High St, Shaftesbury SP7 8JA, UK | Hotel P: 01747 850580
Rating: 4.4 (624) Price Level:
Our first time visit to Shaftesbury and the Grosvenor Arms hotel. Very impressed with both – for the same reasons …... relaxed, welcoming and informal. In the hotel specifically it seemed that the staff were always wanting to “go the extra mile” to make sure we felt at home. The furnishings – and the bedrooms – are all comfortable, well chosen and empathetic to the age of the building. The only meals we had were breakfasts – and these were excellent. Our one concern before arrival – its location right in the centre of a potentially-noisy town – was completely unnecessary. We had a room overlooking the street and it was sufficiently quiet for us to have the window open at night. So, thank you Grosvenor Arms – and Shaftesbury! A great visit.

Went in for food at the bar, and we really enjoyed it!!! The food was simple but delicious and we will 100% be going back. The waitress was also very knowledgeable with information regarding what could be eaten by a celiac in our group. It also had an amazing country pub feel that felt so welcoming and cozy x ❤️

This is one of the better best western hotels I have stayed in. The staff are friendly and helpful. The food is good, the homemade shepherd's pie or beef stew with dumplings is fantastic, as good as I have had. Just a bit let down with what I assume are frozen veg and chips. Some rooms are ok but some are well in need of modernising. Shower didn't work above bath. Car park is safe. Location is good about 12 min walk to center or supermarket. Good pub across the road.

I came into domino’s late one night, 10 minutes before closing, with a low maximum amount of money to spend. The man was very nice and found me a good deal that worked for my price range. He made my pizza, and then gave me two free garlic bread pizzas. He was very lovely, and I appreciate his generosity and kindness

Collected my £6 opening offer pizza and was really happy with my order. Every slice was cut evenly (which norm you don’t get) and there was the right amount of topping. The pizza tasted fantastic and the quality was amazing. Keep up this standard of workmanship and this store will do fantastic. Best £6 spent for top tier customer satisfaction.

A super find! We stumbled across this restaurant tonight, and it was such a great surprise. My husband, girls, and I had a slap up meal for 4, including delicious sides and drinks. The food was on point. They have a varied and interesting menu - plenty of choice. Everything arrived hot and tasted wonderful - aromatic, richly flavoured, and clearly made with love. The portions were generous, so we ended up taking the leftovers home for tomorrow’s lunches. Great service, and value for money. Thanks for having us - we will be back!

Led a motorcycle group ride from Solent area to Somerset / Dorset, with a Sunday lunch stop at the Half Moon, Shaftesbury. 11 of us for lunch and we'd booked ahead so we had tables put together ready for us. Arriving about 1pm, the place was busy. We were fortunate to be served by a lovely young lady, Alyssa. Excellent customer service. She was charming - with an Essex-meets-Somerset type of accent - and confident; and nothing seemed to phase her, not even the items that weren't available on the menu or the pace of the kitchen. Clearly best to go for the carvery, but not everyone who has an evening meal planned wants that at lunchtime.
