Enjoyed our visit to this nice cafe overall. The sandwiches with crisps and coleslaw were good value for money. I was disappointed that the macaroni cheese didn’t come with any accompaniments - this was the only vegetarian choice on the ‘hot meal’ section of the menu and all of the meat/fish choices came with chips. I felt a bit aggrieved on behalf of vegetarians that we had to purchase chips separately. Although the macaroni was nice, it wasn’t great value for money at nearly £9, with not even a salad to go with it. Pasta is one of the cheapest ingredients to buy, so it was a shame this dish didn’t include a small side accompaniment. It was also quite warm in the cafe, but we did visit on a hot day. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere of the cafe was pleasant. We would return if in Charmouth again.

The Marquis of Lorne Inn Restaurant

Tracey & Steve Brady would love to welcome you to The Marquis of Lorne, a 16th Century Country Pub & Inn, nestled in the beautiful hills of Nettlecombe, Dorset. We have featured in guides such as; AA Top 500 Places to Stay, Cask Marque Award of Excellence

Reviewed By Mike B

Not been back here since a year ago. Were a bit nervous, having heard on booking that owners Steve and Tracey were on a night off tonight, but need not have worried. Food was as always, quite outstanding:Venison casserole was bursting with flavour, meat firm but tender. Vegetable sides were just right, slightly firm texture and full of fresh flavour.Venison hamburger was full flavoured and the sides were to die for - coleslaw was obviously freshly hand made with a beautiful tangy sauce and light, crunchy texture, side salad was with a dressing that was lip-smacking. Battered, deep fried crispy onion had the crispest, lightest texture and yet just the right amount of caramelisation to stand up to the richness of the venison hamburger. No frozen onion rings here!Lamb chop was also tender and flavoursome, accompanying chips had a lovely crisp, light outer with a fluffy interior, the best chips I have EVER tested bar none!The menu is wide enough to give plenty of choice, yet still everything shows the depth of attention to detail in fresh, home cooking that sets this place apart from the run of the mill restaurant. If this was in London, you'd pay a hundred pounds a head to get food of this quality, but the prices at the Marquis are firmly mid-range. Beer (Palmer's hand-pulled ales) are kept exceptionally well, wines by the glass are very drinkable and good selection of gins.

We dropped in here for a cup of tea and although it is not the easiest place to find it’s worth persevering. Tucked away on a narrow lane there is no inside seating although some is under cover. We ordered a slice of cake each (Dorset apple cake and fruit cake) which were the most enormous hunks of cake I’ve ever seen! My fruit cake was the best fruit cake I’ve ever had! Friendly staff too and information on each table about how the cafe started and where their ingredients come from (mostly their own farm) which was nice to know. Highly recommended.

Olive Tree

A friendly restaurant serving Mediterranean food using local seasonal produce, cooked in our open kitchen! Our dishes are prepared to order so we are able to accommodate gluten-free and other dietary preferences.

Reviewed By jpcheshire1615

We booked a table at the Olive Tree as we knew it was a popular restaurant. It was as well that we did: on a wet Thursday evening in October it was full. The menu was predominantly fish although meat and vegetarian dishes were available too, as were pasta dishes and pizzas, which looked good. We went for the catch of the day which was gurnard and it was excellent, as was the whole meal. It was served with a nice mixture of steamed or lightly boiled vegetables. Our starters (Moroccan prawns and smoked haddock) were a delicious start to the meal and the just the right size.The kitchen is at the rear of the restaurant and there is no wall separating it from diners. As we were seated at the back of the restaurant we had a good view of the chefs preparing the meals and they were good-humoured and evidently enjoyed chatting with customers. Service in the restaurant was good too. We did not want a whole bottle of wine but more than one glass each; it was suggested that we buy a bottle and take away the unfinished bottle with us. We appreciated this nice touch.We will certainly go back on a future visit to Bridport.

We’ve eaten here three times now, twice in the evening and once at lunchtime. The food has always been great and the service friendly. The place itself is very simple and unpretentious but it is always busy. The fish is always fresh and well cooked and a few days ago we had the crab soup for lunch which was absolutely delicious.

Reviewed By sbcpaw

In an attempt to round out my list of cafes in the Bridport and west Bay Area I finally gave this place a try. It caters for the coach party audience quite well, which I suppose makes sense given it’s location. I’m pretty sure it was packed with the occupants of the Shearing’s coach outside when I visited - it was packed.Nothing wrong with the sandwich - but I could make similar myself. It’s a tea room that wouldn’t be out of place in the 80s and 90s as the menu would be the same. Nothing wrong with that either but I’m a bit of a snob these days.So - if you want something ‘home made’ on a wet day in West Bay, you could do worse. But you could also do better.

We have eaten here twice and enjoyed both visits. Sweet little restaurant decorated cosily in the evening, friendly staff and delicious food. Great gin menu too! Food was top notch, presented beautifully and great value for money. We had our birthday meal here after visiting earlier in the month. You can tell who ever is in the kitchen really cares about the dishes they present. We will be going back!

We both stopped in for a breakfast. I had a full English, which consisted of a fried egg, bacon, sausage mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, black pudding and toast. I also had a lovely cappuccino. The breakfast was £8.99 but well worth every penny as it was all cooked to perfection and using fresh local ingredients. Lavazza coffee is used in the cappuccino, delicious. Amazingly friendly people run this place and dogs are allowed with well behaved owners. Will definitely be back.
