Thirsty Bird has a wonderfully eclectic decor that I find appealing and quirky. We booked to take friends for a lazy Sunday breakfast. We were met and served by the wonderful front-of-house team, who were friendly and delightful. The coffee is sublime, and we take ours black and sugar-free. You can't hide bad coffee ☕️. We ordered the Bacon Ciabatta and two Make-your-Own breakfasts. We had smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, with halloumi and a side salad [a great alternative option to bread], and we had bacon and scrambled eggs, with halloumi. The food was delicious and beautifully plated, and the servings were generous. We will be back.

Lovely intimate eatery with caring hosts. Attended a private party there snd the buffet mezzo food was really good. Nice drinks too. The food menu is a little limited owing to their compact kitchen facility- but they make up for it in personal attention and ambiance.

We attended the Mexican night a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it. The event was very reasonably priced at just £25. The food was amazing, freshly prepared and the portions were extremely generous with a delicious cocktail included. Couldn't have asked for a nicer evening and the staff were amazing, looking forward to the next one!

“This was our first visit and we were very impressed. The fish platter had a most interesting selection of fish and was beautifully presented . The service was most friendly and courteous. Our only negative comment was that the garden , where we ate, could have been tidied up with some more colourful bushes.”

“Finally tried out Rosemary in Wimborne. Booked a table for 8pm and was shown to our table promptly on arrival. Decor is nice. Some tables are very close together. The menu is varied, so something for everyone. However with the lighting and gold embossed sections on the menu it was a little hard to read. I ordered a glass Turkish rose wine, which was lovely. Breads and dips arrived at the table and were complimentary (nice touch). We had the mixed meze to start, which was great. Main meals were good size portions and very good. The restaurant was busy, so the noise level was quite high. My only criticism was the attentiveness of staff. Once are food arrived at the table, we were not checked on or asked if we would like more drinks etc for the rest of the evening. Would I go back…yes definitely. Food was great. Go and give it a try.”

“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.”

“If I'm honest I thought that the mushroom wellington was a boring option. However, it was delicious. Best veggie christmas dinner. Hot, excellent service, friendly staff and nice ambience. Be nice to have another option if I came again though. Thank you!”

“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!”
