Windy Corner Cafe

➤ Quayside, DT6 4GZ, West Dorset, United Kingdom

Cafe • Vegan • British • Vegetarian

"After about 4/5 years visiting the Windy Corner Cafe, I have to say that it has been steadily on the decline. The last straw came this week when my friend and I were ushered to a table in the back whilst 3 tables were in actual fact free but 'reserved '. The guys behind us weren 't so lucky as they were actually turned away! These 'reserved ' tables were all sea view, best seats in the house. Our table had a view of a fence and 10 or so wasps buzzing round which you had to try and seat as you ate your meals. Eventually the guests turned up for the sea view tables and basically nursed a cup of coffee for the entire time we were there. One table had one coffee between the two of them! We always have a biggish breakfast each and this has been a bit hit and miss lately too. One week raw sausages the next raw potatoes the week after that missing eggs? There always seems to be something these days. Unfortunately the standards have been slipping progressively for a while. This used to be our favourite place to go in Dorset but now it is way, way down the list. The biggest gripe is the reserved table thing. This is not the Savoy or even the Ritz. Its a café. Its a café turning people away so that people with reservations can nurse coffee for hours while they look out to sea. People that get turned away won 't be back."

"Oh dear, what ever has happened to this wonderful ancient pub? It used to be so good and difficult to get a seat, even on off days. The staff are friendly but the food was awful. I should have been suspicious when the menu looked unchanged (it used to be seasonal) and we were the only couple there. No specials on offer either. The food (lunchtime) had obviously been reheated and was woefully tasteless. Come on Rose and Crown you can do better than this, don't let this once wonderful pub go the way of so many others."

New Inn

"Looked on website at the mouthwatering photos of the food on offer but was very disappointed with the reality served, in particular the portion sizes. The burger was served with five sweet potato fries, the fish pie was over cooked and dried out and the lamb cobbler (poor lamb stew with one dry scone served on the side not baked on top??? , was served with lumpy mash reminiscent of school dinners. Sorry New Inn but we won’t be back."

"Came for dinner at this large restaurant near the seafront.It's pretty dark but that's along the nautical theme with oil lamps and tankards.Varied menu and some of the dishes come in small and large which is a great idea.Good range of vegan/ vegetarian options. We ordered a seitan pitta and a vegan bolognese. The seitan was really good, the bolognese was ok but really bore little resemblance to a bolognese sauce.The fish chips looked really good here and I ended up a bit envious.Service was very friendly."

"Where do I begin. Booking was easy the day before. Their staff are so friendly, helpful and efficient. Very attentive checking we had everything we needed. We came on a Sunday purposely to try their roasts. Our friends had heard good things about this restaurant and they were so right. The food was delicious. We are roast people and have tried many many many all round the country. I actually would put their roast as our top 2 ever, huge praise. The taste was wonderful. Great selection, good quality and well prepared. We had the beef which came with roasted veg, tender stem broccoli, braised red cabbage, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and stuffing ball. Great potion of food and I asked for extra veg which apparently no one has asked before which was also a great portion. Even their desserts were great. We had the fudge cake with custard which was lovely! I would definitely recommend this place and will come again when in the area! (There was only one issue which they dealt with as soon as I mentioned it which was we were over charged by one extra roast but the staff there immediately dealt with it once I pointed it out, no issue at all. (Also impressed how clean the toilets were. Always pleased to smell bleach."

"The food was good, chips were not greasy and scampi was as expected. The service was good, with a clean environment despite having a few dogs in-house, there was no dog/ animal smell you'd usually associate with a place that allowed dogs. You won't notice them until you see them, so yes really clean. Parking: You can park on the street, but I also noticed a parking lot by the side. Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, there is wheelchair access through another entrance and I noticed an electric wheelchair/ mobility scooter parked by the entrance for safe keeping and easy access. Price per person: £10–20 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Parking space: Plenty of parking Parking options: Free parking lot, Free street parking"

"Great Sunday lunch! Carvery was available in small, average and large basically 1, 2 or3 slices of meat) with as much tasty veg as you can fit on your plate. Today's meats were pork, beef and turkey. There was 7 veg options with yorkshires and stuffing. The staff were all friendly and made it a very relaxed atmosphere. The staff were happy to answer questions regarding food intolerances . We will definitely be returning next time we visit family in the area. I would advise pre booking a table. Thank you to you for a lovely afternoon."

"I cannot find fault at all abso perfect in every way! Our group had Vegan burger, Pork faggots Cumberland sausage meals. Had to control ourselves not to lick the plates it was so tasty! All homemade and so, so tasty. We squeezed ourselves into the last remaining non reserved table and were served within seconds of going to order even though busy. Once a bigger table became free the landlord cleaned it and came over to offer it to us rather than saving for a bigger party so kind and thoughtful not what I'm used to out my way! About 12 vegan/veg dishes and plenty of meat/fish dishes of various delicacies about 40 meals ish. It seemed a standardised pricing one price fits all meals which was really refreshing idea. Busy, but lovely atmosphere where everyone seemed to know each other very welcoming nothing seemed too much trouble to landlord/lady. Once food scoffed we had an hour to spare before we had to make a move and didn't feel at all we had to make room for someone else. This sounds silly but I really appreciate a good hand soap these days (yes I'm pushing late 40's) and I was really happy to find Molton Brown hand soap in the toilets not a luxury I get in my local haunts (must try to upgrade my locals). Only thing I realy would recommend is to book we were so very lucky to get a space and |I wouldn't want anyone disappointed! Anyway give it a go you won't be disappointed!"

"We were in Sherborne for the (small) Saturday market and hadresearched the best place for lunch. Tamburino Gold lived up to its recommendations and reviews a brilliant welcome and meal. On a lovely day we were fortunate to be able to sit on the front terrace.The food was just perfect a starter each and mains (Rack of lamb and salmon salad). Service was excellent and all staff very friendly. With 2 glasses of wine, a beer and a coffee, the bill came to £81 including service charge. Excellent value for that quality of meal and experience."

"We booked a week at this caravan park and on arrival was easy check in as already knew pitch number, checked in via telephone as per requested and site owner came down to check all was good before we completed pitch set up. Toilets very high standard and kept spotlessly clean, caravan site very clean and beautiful location. Farm shop, what can I say? All the food looked delicious and what we actually tried certainly was delicious. A great selection of pies which were best I've ever tried and sausages absolutely delicious. We ate in the cafe and again very friendly staff, food and overall service totally excellent. We stayed with our 3 dogs and no issues at all and we shall certainly be looking to return to this fantastic site on the farm with shop and cafe! Thank you to all staff and owners for a fantastic place to stay."

The Greyhound Inn

"We visited The Greyhound a couple of years ago and like a few other reviewers, we were keen to return during our holiday this September. On this occasion, we had only been at our table for a matter of minutes when the landlord (I presume) called across the bar asking me if my dog had urinated on the floor. I replied that they had been to the toilet outside before coming in. The response from the landlord was to state that one of my dogs had just done a massive wee on the floor. My dogs are house trained and polite company in pubs and other venues. We walked straight to our our table from the door. Surely I would have needed to stop in the bar to let my dog do the said massive wee (they are not big dogs and don 't do massive anything)? Even if one of them did have an accident, do you not think I would have informed someone, or do you take such a dim view of your customers to assume I would not? My mother believed she heard the landlord make a disparaging comment about my dogs to one of the waiting staff. The whole unnecessary incident made me feel embarrassed and humilated in front of other diners. If we had not had such an arduous journey to get there, we would have left. I did enjoy the roast chicken but my Mum 's roast beef was mostly inedible stringy and tough. She left half of it. Also the roast potatoes appeared to be the frozen variety. On a more positive note the waiting staff were polite, attentive and were kind to my dogs; we appreciated that."

"Expected high quality food, the crispy shrimps were a really unpleasant texture and overpriced. Fish and chips were fine, but some of the chips were not properly cooked. It just found it really expensive for an average meal, really disappointing how we are real foods and had traveled specifically for it."

Smuggler's Inn

➤ Osmington Mills Weymouth, Dorset DT3 6HF, West Dorset, United Kingdom

"While the service and friendliness at this restaurant were exceptional, the Sunday roasts left much to be desired. The beef was tough and difficult to chew, and the pork was mostly fat with little meat. On a positive note, the vegetables and desserts were enjoyable. The prawn cocktail was a unique dish, and the whitebait was tasty. Overall, the dining experience was not great, especially since I was treating my friends."

The Ilchester Arms

"Worst pub I've experienced on my World Record attempt so far! Asked if I could buy a drink charge up using the plugs. To which the Landlady said yes. Got charged an extortionate £5.50 for one pint. The wifi was so bad I couldn't get any work done didn't bother using it. Areas of the pub were closed off and buckets in other areas catching rain water through leaks everywhere. Constantly heard the landlady moaning about other customers. Was in there for about an hour and went to the toilet, to come back and find she'd turned the plug off without even talking about it or making me aware it was an issue, especiallygiven she'd already said it was ok. If she had I would have happily paid. But just went about being a snake about it."

"Booked for dinner with my partner and two friends and we had such a lovely evening. We were served by our waitress Ebony and waiter Dean. They were absolutely fantastic and worked so well together ensuring we did not have to wait for anything. They were very observant and asked if we needed another drink when ours were almost empty. There was not a large wait time on food and we felt that we had enough time between our starters and main to enjoy each other’s company. We had calamari , garlic bread and a fondues for starters. The garlic bread was incredible and the calamari and fonduta certainly did not disappoint. For mains my partner had the sticky pig pizza and we were surprised by the generous sizing of the pizza! The rest of us had pasta and my carbonara was the best I have had. We only got two desserts and shared them because the portions are huge! We had the honeycomb cheese cake and the chocolate brownie Sundae and both were to die for. The service and food were 10/10 . We honestly could not find anything to fault. A huge thankyou to everyone at Zizzi for a lovely evening. We cannot wait to return."

"We've eaten here in the past when we go to visit an elderly relative in West Bay. On this occasion, we ate at 6.30 on a Tuesday evening. The pub was moderately busy, but it was a wet and windy night! We both had fish and chips which was okay. Portion size was adequate, but if you're a big, hungry man, it wouldn't necessarily be enough. Fish was quite nice, but chips a little underwhelming in my opinion. What I found extremely annoying was the addition of a 10% service charge automatically applied to the bill. It wasn't even mentioned by the member of staff. I always get it removed. If I want to add a tip, I will decide how much, not the restaurant thank you very much!!! My husband was slightly surprised when I paid the bill as it was. He queried it when we were outside, and I said I had paid the service charge because they had missed of a pint of beer and a large glass of red, so it was reasonable value, and one up to me! We won't return in the future."

"my wife and I shared some vegan nachos and had ever a vegan burger. the burgers were beautiful, the chips had a really nice level of crispness to them, but the natchos were probably the best I ever had. the natchos themselves were only standard crispy triangular natchos, but the rich and amount of torppings was the best I ever had for natchos (vegan or not.) when you look through the reviews, my wife also did one and she postes a picture of the natchos."

"Sign on main road said OPEN So drove 3 miles further on with plan to walk down beach, stop for a drink and a bite and walk back. But CLOSED when we got there at 2:30 Sign on main road still said open??? Not quite a waste of three hours, but close. If they can’t be bothered to have honest signs what else can’t they be bothered with? 06/01/24 Meal type: Lunch"

"used this place while on holiday for one meal and the pub was dog friendly and even offered meals for my dog. The staff were so friendly and even payed alot of attention to my dog. So one quick pint turned in to dinner and a revisit of 3 more times during the week and cant wait to go back and try again next year. really is a pub worth a visit with real ales on pump and a covered area to eat (with or without the dog) and friendly staff that make you feel welcome and a huge garden with animals"
