**The Black Bear: A Hidden Gem in Dorset** Nestled in the heart of Wool, The Black Bear is a charming village pub that captures the essence of traditional hospitality.

With a vibrant atmosphere and a lovely beer garden, The Black Bear is a must-visit for anyone seeking great food, drink, and camaraderie in Dorset.

During our first visit to Dorset, we were guided to The Black Bear, and I’m so glad we chose to dine there. The staff was incredibly friendly from the moment we walked in. We ordered the chicken bacon salad and half BBQ chicken. The salad was good, with a really nice dressing; though my partner would have preferred a bit more bacon, but that's just their taste. I tried a bit of BBQ chicken from different places, and this was by far the best. The sauce was the highlight—sticky and bursting with flavor, it really delighted my taste buds. Thank you for a wonderful meal and excellent service!

This pub is fantastic! The staff are friendly, cheerful, welcoming, and professional. The menu features a diverse and delicious array of snacks, meals, and desserts, with options for both vegetarians and those needing gluten-free choices. It's also child- and dog-friendly. The employees really go above and beyond; for instance, when you order a cup of coffee, it comes served on a tablet with a cute little cookie on the side. I tried one of the special dishes, and it was not only excellent but also very affordable. I can't wait to return with friends and family!

This is a wonderful little pub with a fantastic atmosphere. All the staff are incredibly polite and provide excellent service. They offer a selection of beautiful local ales, and the food is top-notch. If you’re in the area or even passing by, I highly recommend stopping in!

This is an excellent village pub that offers a great selection of beers and an impressive menu. On sunny days, the front beer garden is a popular spot to enjoy your drinks.
