"We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant with amazing seafood in a beautiful setting and a wonderful atmosphere. They were able to accommodate us at the last minute, even with our children and dog in tow. We were very grateful for that. The children enjoyed dishes like pasta bolognese and a vegetarian option, while the adults savored seafood dishes like oysters, scallops, and mackerel soup. Desserts were delicious. We will definitely be returning and will make sure to book ahead next time!"

Food was stunning. Views out into the bay were just amazing and the staff were faultless. Even more, they allow dogs. Would come again in an instant

Unfortunately, when my partner and I arrived today, the main restaurant was fully booked. However, we were able to dine at the bar and bistro. They had a fantastic grill and prepared the most delicious lunch we could have asked for! I will definitely make sure to book in advance next time we visit.

friendly attentive service, spectacular view and excellent eating. simply cites one of the best restaurants in the BCP area and probably the best fish restaurant. the situation is perfect and much more accessible than they might think, only the other (studland) side of the ferry. we have actually caught the open deck bus from westbourne and made a trip from it. highly recommended if you want a fantastic fish restaurant or just a special occasion.

We arrived for lunch on a beautiful sunny day and the restaurant had a good vibe and a bit of a buzz. We were shown to a table with a full view of the surrounding water, vessels and wild life, which was so relaxing. The staff are attentive and very helpful. We ordered 3 different fish starters and mains which were all absolutely delicious. The fish was cooked to perfection and the wine nicely chilled. Top marks everyone, you will see us again and again and again.

A fabulous place to while away a few hours with friends and family. The food is exceptional as is the service, if you are fish lover then you are in for a real treat. Try to get a window seat as the views of Poole Harbour are something special. Forgot to take photos as we were enjoying ourselves and the food so much. Parking is in the National Trust car park opposite, or you could park in the one closer to Studland and walk up the beach to the restaurant. We will definitely return.

"Booked a table of 5 for my birthday dinner. We were promptly seated then immediately asked for drinks orders before even being offered a drinks menu or water. After we had ordered drinks we were being rushed into ordering some food, every two minutes different waiters coming and asking if we are ready to order (at least 7 times). After we did order and the food was brought out, we were then just forgotten about and nobody came over anymore to check if we needed any more drinks (4 out of 5 glasses were empty) or if the food was ok. (It was- but no one checked). After we had finished dining, we still had empty glasses and had to wait 20+ minutes until we eventually stopped a waiter walking past and asked if we could order more drinks. The drinks then took another 15 minutes to come. It was also very disappointing that although we had mentioned on the booking itself that it was for my birthday, there was no acknowledgement of this (I have been before and had received a plate with ‘happy birthday’ written on it in some kind of sauce with a sparkler). My sister even went to ask the woman working on the front desk and received a standoffish attitude back saying no. When the £235 bill came, it even listed ‘birthday plate £0.00’ on it!!! That really let the evening down. The interactions with the staff themselves were great, they were very polite and personable but the actual level of service of being rushed to order and then totally forgotten about really dampened what could have been a fantastic evening."
