2 of us went to Symonsbury Kitchen for breakfast, we both had the full English, cannot fault it. Quality ingredients used, presentation excellent. Been coming to Dorset for years, not sure why we haven’t visited before ! Shame the weather was bad as we would have walked up Colmers Hill afterwards. Will be visiting again soon.

It was our first visit for an anniversary meal. We had to wait 40 minutes for the starter & the main course came before we had finished it, so timing needs to be looked at in the kitchen.

Sadly the food was poor. I had smashed avocado on toast for which the eggs were uncooked (the albumen spilling out). These were returned and simply new eggs added on top of the old wet toast. My friend had the beans on toast, it arrived without eggs, and when she asked for them it took ages for them to arrive so that the beans were cold. We could see you were busy but it wasn't a good experience.

I had salad disappointed as there no tomatoes also the focaccia bread was £2 for a very small piece, and it was more like toast.

Was disappointed that there was no Sunday lunch and the ploughman's that we had was not very big for the price, the lamb koftas were amazing but as always cannot fault the quality etc.
