"WOW! What can we say!? Chris Katie catered lunch at our beautiful outdoor wedding at Moonacre, Sturminster Marshall. They had a fantastic layout and lots of menu options available several different burgers, wieners fries! They absolutely smashed the service and excelled at feeding a few more than expected too! They made us a gorgeous little personalised menu also which we thought was such a nice touch! Everyone couldn’t stop talking about how amazing their food was even those who would never normally consider vegan options were blown away at how great everything tasted! They managed to positively influence even the most stubborn meat eaters of our guests to realise that they don’t need to miss out on flavour when choosing vegan options! That’s a huge win in our eyes! A couple of people even said it was the first ever vegan food they’d tried and they couldn’t get over how amazing it was! We told our guests about the Mighty Wieners restaurant in Bournemouth and will be bringing people back for more as they couldn’t wait to try more options! The day was such a huge success and Chris Katie did such an incredible job! We can’t recommend them enough, for food at their restaurant and wedding events catering! Vegetarian options: Excellent vegetarian and vegan options! Dietary restrictions: Served gluten free options! Kid friendliness: Excellent service friendly, warm and when above and beyond! Wheelchair accessibility: Perfect for full accessibility!"

"This was part of our bed and breakfast of the Park Central hotel, to which I 've written a separate review. But I have to start by saying, I have no idea why it is attached to that hotel. I 4 star rated that hotel, and 2 star this, and even that I was being generous! the dinner on our first night started off very nice. We were seated quickly, drinks came relatively fast. As with all offers there is a separate set menu, we optioned to pay extra for the main menu as I wanted some good sea food! We started with oysters which where lovely, this and one factor at breakfast, gave it that second star, other wise it would have been a one star! Ordering off the main menu my husbands sea bass was quite nice as I had a little taste, my hake on a bed of risotto was awful!!! And I say awful because it was, the hake tasted like hake, no flavour or anything to recommend it by, the risotto was just terrible! I 'm not sure if the chef had just discovered saffron, but it was overpowering and just the worse!!! I filled up on the maybe 3 x 3 inch piece of Fish and veg and my husbands side salad! I could not bring myself to eat it, I 'm not a lets be polite and suck it up kind of diner I 'm a, I want good food, this is what I paid for kind of diner!! to add insult to injury, the waitress asks how our meal was, my husband raved about his sea bass, I went on to say my meal was not adequate, she went on to LOOK at me like I smeared it on my face, no apology, no replacement, not even an acknowledgement of the fact the meal was awful!! Wanna hear the SECOND insult to double injury?? I went to use their ladies facilities and saw a board with their specials! I would have easily opted for one of those, but was not given the opportunity or told about it! Unfortunate the picture I took of the specials board was burry due to maybe anger or frustration, or after a bottle of Prosecco just couldn 't hold the camera straight!! It took a while for our bill to come, and by this time I am already fuming at my first night here ruined by a horrid meal!! I kept getting louder to get a server to bring up our bill, and again I mentioned I was not happy with the meal, again to be TOTALLY ignored! If I was paying for the whole meal I would have complained to the manager, but as we only paid for the alcohol, oysters and balance of the meal, I let sleeping dogs lie as everyone else seemed to be having a good time in the restaurant! I did not want to be that guy . Now....breakfast!! I thought, surely they cannot screw this up!! Time for them to redeem themselves!!! Ohh how wrong I was! Instant coffee, awful! I was told there was a pot of filter coffee, it was just as bad, and horribly watered down! My husband said his tea was FISHY!! What the actuations heck?!?! Do you guys wash the water urn with the same spong as the fish board!?!?! That is disgusting!!! Two english breakfasts ordered, I had scrabbled eggs (the ONLY redeeming point at breakfast!! my husband had fried and awfully under cooked! No one wants runny eggs! The mushrooms clearly batched cooked, tomato, halved and lightly fired I hope you like partially raw tomato! Bacon, very generic, beans were beans, what else can you say? Maybe add some spices, a condiment or two?!?! I ended up eating my scrabbled eggs and bacon, but desperate to get some vegetables in my ate my mushrooms and beans under protest! And ended up filling up on pots of yoghurt! My husband spotted flies on the pasties on the open buffet where the tea urn was, so we stayed away from that! I know its a fish restaurant and flies are expected, doesn 't mean I want them doing the Charlston across my croissant!! Morning two, I opened for an omelette as that is crack some eggs and add the bits, I wish I took a pic as it was hilarious!! It looked like a egg pancake with bacon bits and mushrooms!!! Good heavens! Once again I filled on yohgurt and toast, which was freshly made thank goodness! I noticed there was specialist coffee available, lattes, mochacinno etc, I ordered two to get told those cost extra!!! OMG! What kind of Mickey Mouse, back garden, off the books kind of eatery you guys running here?!?! For Petes sake! Would I recommend this place, NO! Would I eat there if it was free? Clearly as I had no choice and was part of my stay, but if they offered me compensation for the poor service in the form of a free meal, I 'd say NO!!"
