Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Dorset

We love Chianti— the food is superb. They are really great with our family member with food allergies too. It was super noisy and bustling but on a Friday night to be expected. Thank you!!!

Delicious as always, with fabulous service! The dining room has a lovely atmosphere.

Red Rooster was lovely! Went with two small kids and they brought out their food first, cups with lids and straws, and were so kind.

Had Xmas Eve dinner at RP and was lovely. Attentive service, varied menu and everything was delicious.

We had a Christmas Eve dinner at the Copper Grouse. The drink and dinner choices were varied and we each saw a number of items we would enjoy. The cheese board was tasty as was the arancini appetizer. Portions were very healthy and the sides were all delicious and well prepared. We wound up sharing bites amongst the table and everyone was stuffed when we finished. Service was very friendly and attentive and the restaurant had a good vibe. Only negative is, being in a hotel, there was a mix of kids watching videos on their ipads and couples out for a pre-holiday dinner. We have eaten here before and would definitely come back.
