The Wyke Smugglers – WeymouthFour of us visited for lunch on Monday 8th Dec. The menu is very uninspiring, not even an all day breakfast, and the service mediocre, which matched the quality of the food. As the waitress cleared away our first course she asked if everything was okay but, when told that the pork was tough, simply replied "oh". No apology, nothing! We could have been persuaded to have a dessert as well but in reality felt we were not really wanted as it was too much trouble. Very unlikely to go back. Very sad given the prime location of the premises; Swanage deserves better.
The View – SwanageI have eaten steak in many many restaurants all over and I can honestly say the best steak for presentation, taste and tenderness was at the Marquis of Granby. My family from Manchester really enjoyed their meals and enjoyed the visit. Thank you to the landlord and staff.
The Marquis of Granby – WeymouthScrumptious burgers and yummier puddings.
Quarters – BournemouthVisited yesterday, excellent food reasonable prices and good choice menu. Very clean and wonderful views of planes coming and going. Highly recommended.
Bournemouth Flying Club – ChristchurchI came for a nice cocktail today which was very good. 30 minutes you appeared to have ignored me and my food order. I needed to meet friends. So left the non-existent food. Please tell me if should find a meal not even acknowledge in passing, for table 251. Please refund my card the cost the meal.

The Clay Pipe Inn – PooleWould like to visit you during the summer but it appears that there is no improvement based on some of your reviews. what action do you propose in order to improve? Have visited this venue before and hope to do so again.
The Riverside – BournemouthGood Pub food at very good price. very nice staff.
The Dolphin Inn – ShaftesburyDon't bother Rude arrogant staff that seem to have a chip on there shoulder. Food lacking, The battered Jumbo sausages were gray inside tasted like they had had better days. Be warned, just walk on by plenty of other good fish and chip shop just a few steps away... Definitely shan't be returning for a second experience....!!!!!
The Seagull Cafe – WeymouthAwful - possibly worst fish
Harlees Fish and Chips – WimborneVery warm welcome and overall friendly pub. Food was excellent as always.
Holme Bush Inn – Wimbornehello my name is Anthony Bennett,I live at 7 harbour sail,71 West Quay road,poole,dorset..On the day of 25.04.13 .My Partner and I visited the cat and Fiddle Pub and Restaurant.Straight Away My Partner And I ordered a drink and found a table to sit down as we were planning on having a nice meal. As soon as we sat down we didn't even have time to look at the menu I presume it was the manager , he aproached us and said are you ready to order yet but he knew we didn't even look at the menu as where my partner and I was sat he was stood just yards away from us , as he was stood up waiting to approach customers that were ordering food. We arrived at 4pm Aprox,When the meals finally came my partner ordered chicken,,cheese bbq stack

Original Thomas Hardy – DorchesterI visited this Restaurant with my wife and granddaughter following the Christmas period.From the comments I have read, I expected good food and excellent service. Unfortunately we did not enjoy either. The food was not very good and the service was slow.We were unable to understand what the waitress was saying at times and she also took little notice of the complaints we made about some of the food.Every time we wanted another glass of wine we had to keep calling her to the table.My granddaughter , who eats regularly in chinese restaurants in Southampton ,said that it was probably the worst meal and service she had experienced.The only interest the waitress had was when we decided to leave. She asked how much gratuity I wished to add to the bill!!We even left without a goodbye from the staff.Needless to say, we will not be going to this restaurant again.
