Beales restaurant in Poole is currently a mixed bag, drawing both loyalty and disappointment from patrons.

While some still appreciate its friendly atmosphere and decent offerings, many customers report long waits, lackluster staff training, and an overall decline in experience.

Beales used to be a decent place for a meal, but sadly it has declined in quality. The restaurant is poorly lit and feels dingy. The food is subpar, the seating is uncomfortable, and the cleanliness is questionable. Unfortunately, this seems to be a common trend on high streets in this country.
I stopped by for a drink and a snack at this restaurant, and while the food and beverages were decent, the menu seemed more limited than I had remembered. Additionally, the cashier could have been quicker.
A popular café located in the storehouse that is clean but not particularly quick and a bit pricey. It appears to be a popular choice for shoppers.
I wanted to get hot drinks - just people ahead. what an experience, so slower service seems of people who have absolutely no idea what they do to manipulate. the advertised salted caramel hot chocolate with cream and...Marshmallows (just like per description under photos on the wall) was a hot chocolate with sirup in. when I asked where the rest was, I was told that there was a deluxe I gave at this point seriously? it has been described by what can only be described as a woman overall for those who have observed victoria wood so badly that it was laughing. what's on earth is this load that thinks if I could give him 0. if a snake of men takes her, then I'll break what a Christmas rope will do with them. I would give up if I were her and get a costa in there, and as for her cash try to say people to apply for cards etc. and explain flyer at great length, while the wait lasted longer and longer stop!

I felt sorry for the staff that were doing their best as they we short staffed. Food when received was good but lack of cutlery as no washing up had been done. I can't see us going there anymore
