Welcome to our Restaurant

Please use the Navigation on the left to view the menus...

We have won many awards for our restaurant over the twelve years we have been here, the most recent being a Taste of the West Gold in 2012. Our menus are changed regularly to make use of seasonality and local availability.

Many of our suppliers of meat, fish and vegetables are from within a 15 mile radius of Charmouth.

Food is prepared daily and cooked from fresh ingredients, indeed many of the herbs and some of the vegetables are from our own hotel garden. We also have a small flock of chickens that provide us with a constant supply of eggs.

We are happy to cater for coeliac, lactose free and other diets. If you do have specific dietary requirements, do call us and we will endeavour to cater for your needs.

Should you book on-line please indicate on the additional information page which nights you wish to dine. Please note our restaurant is closed on Sunday and Monday evenings but we are happy to recommend/book places to eat locally and can arrange taxis if required.
