Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return above all for the cote de boeuf, often shared between two and described as super tasty, cooked perfectly and generous in size, served with peppercorn or blue cheese sauce and chips. Close behind are the fillet and sirloin steaks, which several call among the best they have eaten, with one pairing the fillet with pulled pork to start. Others mention squid, crispy pork belly, pate and salad, a southern fried chicken burger, seabass, and an apple tart tatin with salted ice cream. The one criticism comes from a reviewer who found the starter portions very small on a big plate, though they still called the food delicious. Several say the place is popular and suggest booking ahead, yet a couple of walk-ins were seated the same night. Staff are described as friendly, and one family celebrating a 50th birthday was brought a dessert with a candle and music.

“My partner and I came here for our anniversary and honestly this was one of the best steaks we’ve eaten! The atmosphere, food and service cannot be faulted. If you’re reading this and considering coming here, please do! It’s a lovely family owned local business. The only issue we had is how far it is from where we’re from! We will definitely come again.”

“Absolutely love this place! The best steak in Dorset. Family run, small, intimate, a real treat for a special night out! We went for the cote de bouf this time and it was super tasty, peppercorn and blue cheese sauce with nice veggies and chips to dip. Can’t beat it If you want a the best steak of your life, go here”
