The Pymore Inn - West Dorset

Fantatsic booked a table in the marquee but was told on arrival there was room indoors so we opted to eat inside away from some unruly doggies that like to bark at everyone, ordered food and drinks all came in good time and the food was delicious well cooked seasoned and just generally yummy. Staff super friendly nothing to much trouble mentioned it was ny birthday which was the reason we weren't doing pudding as I had a birthday cake at home. The cost of one of our pints of cider was knocked off the bill as a birthday treat. This is fantastic and thankyou so much its much appreciated we will be back always a good meal and friendly staff and a decent pint aswell.

Decided to try somewhere new to take my mum for her birthday dinner on Sunday. Booked in advance and arrived to be squeezed onto a table where once I was in, I couldn’t get out. We then waited 1h10 minutes for our meal to arrive. We were given no pre-warning that there was a long wait, no update on the foods arrival. When the roast dinner did finally turn up I was shocked. I asked politely where the Yorkshire puddings were I was told they’d sold out! I was given two hard potatoes that looked as though they’d been under the heater for a few hours and small pile of limp cabbage… the meat.. well the meat was purely a pile of fat. No meat on it at all. Afraid to say we didn’t not eat it and left. The table next to us had been waiting over an hour and half and looked shook when they saw what we had been served. Thankfully Haddon House Hotel fitted us in and even though it was busy we had our meal in 15 minutes. Really wanted to like this cute country pub but you seriously need to work on your food and service. I also suggest you train your staff how to update their customers on food delivery and all general customer service. Dumping the food in front of you and not explaining if things are missing is not on. Nor is expecting people to wait this long and not deliver what is an actually a fairly expensive roast in this area. Wish I’d taken a photo before we left but was starving and annoyed.

Me and a friend went for the afternoon tea on Monday to round off the Bank Holiday, and have a good catch up. Really delicious great choice of savoury sandwiches, scotch egg (perfectly crispy on the outside with slightly gooey egg), and a sausage roll, followed by scones, jam, cream, Victoria sandwich, and a brownie that almost pushed me over the edge but was so worth squeezing in! We had Pimms alongside it, and as much tea as we wanted. Lovely, smiley, helpful service from our server and a backdrop of live music from a terrific singer. Will definitely come back!!

We went yesterday for an amazing roast dinner, service was a little slow but they were very busy. We found out about today’s afternoon tea so booked in for it. Great service, plenty of food which we took home for later. Live music, a hidden gem. Will definitely return.

Absolutely disgusting! Not even worth one star! Daughter took me for lunch for my birthday…took 1 hour 5 mins to come…5 tables were waiting that long.i asked where our Yorkshire puds were…just told they’d ran out…it was a tiny amount of cabbage with 2 tiny rock hard potatoes and a pile of meat fat on top…only worthy of a dogs bowl. There wasn’t a tablespoon of meat there…total heap of fat. Almost made me physically sick just looking at it. £18 they charge foe this too! We just got up and told them to forget it and walked out and booked somewhere else we know that’s worth going to from the car. Looking back, I wondered it was even left over scraps from other peoples plates..I’ve never seen such disgusting so called ‘food’ ever! How are these people allowed to serve this rubbish? Don’t go there…we certainly won’t ever again and make sure others know what it’s like too. No apologies for the long wait or offer of any kind to replace the Yorkshire either.
