Reviews in Bridport

We visit the Bridport area in early January every year & it's a must to visit the Olive Tree. This year there were 6 of us - 4 adults and 2 young children. We were looked after so well & the food superb as always. The Moroccan Prawns were a big hit for starters as well as the belly pork. My seabass with lemon butter sauce was absolutely delicious. The beef Bourguignon was rich & full of flavour as was the carbonara & duck linguine. The children shared a homemade pizza & loved it. We all had 3 courses as perfectly priced for a lunch menu. The restaurant staff are so welcoming & the food never disappoints! We won't be waiting till next January for a visit! 5* all the way

Discovered this delightful restaurant after almost giving up hope of finding anywhere other than a coffee shop or pub for lunch one Saturday whilst exploring the antique market. Although we hadn’t booked they found space for us. We enjoyed the food and have subsequently become regular customers. My partner is always impressed by the fabulous Sea food linguine - packed with a tremendous amount of various fish and shellfish fish. A dish definitely worthy of it’s name. I can vouch for the richness and quality taste of the Carbonara, the egg yolk in a shell on the top is an excellent detail. We have both enjoyed other fish dishes there and the Moroccan Prawns are a favourite starter. Fancy coloured plates or arty food arrangements are not what this restaurant is about. In essence, it is about quality food fresh simply cooked, packed with flavour. The lunchtime 3 courses for £30 a definite bargain. Definitely worth driving to, plus there is a car park just across the street. Top tip: book to be assured a table.

Quite possibly the best Lamb Shoulder that I’ve ever tasted! Coupled with Moroccan Prawns for the Starter, it was memorable. You can always be assured of high levels of service, here. It’s always a pleasure to visit our favourite restaurant in town. See you soon!

Great food on Tapas Night with exceptional service. Especially enjoyed the prawns, mussels, and desserts.

5 star!

I am never disappointed when I visit the Olive Tree. As always the food is beautifully cooked and presented. Breaded sea bream yesterday was lovely. Service is excellent. Staff are friendly. Will be back soon! Thank you to the whole team

We had a very good evening at the Olive Tree. There is enough choice on the menu, and the food was delicious. The wine (Sicilian) was good too! Our young waitress was friendly, helpful and attentive.

We arrived just as service was starting. With 2 lively 4 1/2 year olds. Their Father and I had a delicious Beef Bourguignon and the girls a pasta dish. Always delicious and general portions.

Lovely staff, very friendly and welcoming. Great food served in warm and comfortable surroundings. Definitely be back

We had a lovely meal. The fish was beautifully cooked with a good range of vegetables. One of us had ‘The Spectacular’ which definitely lived up to its name! We have eaten here many times over the years when in holiday in the area and have never been disappointed. Look forward to our next visit.

Our second visit and, judging by our experiences, we may even become regulars. Extremely welcoming & attentive staff and delicious food.
