Excellent mains (lamb and sea trout) and the dessert (cheesecake) was perfect. Service was just right - not too much, not too little. We'll be back.

Visiting Bridport for a short break & found Olive Tree via the internet. Thoroughly enjoyed our meals which were excellent & would happily return!!

Of the many good restaurants in the area, this is one of the very best. The menu is well thought out and there is a good choice. If you like fish , you are in for a treat. The Moroccan prawns are exceptional and would not be out of place in any restaurant whose chef has Michelin stars, but of course without the price tag. The staff are very welcoming and make it a great place to eat.

Lovely food, staff and private room upstairs for my birthday. The Spectacular was just that and rest of our meals equally good. Even has one of our favourite wines as House special! Will be back...

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.
