"We stopped in for lunch. The Bear is a charming old building full of character and has a wonderful ambience. We were greeted promptly by the young lady, and she was friendly and polite throughout our experience. Only two things marred what was otherwise an enjoyable first visit: despite the menu indicating a broad selection of ales, only one was on the pumps when we visited, which was a little disappointing. Secondly, we unfortunately had to listen to two of her male colleagues, who had finished their shift, loudly discuss and mock visitors' regional accents. I thought this deeply unprofessional and rude, but I suppose that the challenge of finding good hospitality staff means you have to be less selective these days. Food drinks: We both ordered the ploughman's lunch and were really impressed with the presentation and the quality of the ingredients. The only minor improvement that might be made is to include butter for the bread, otherwise it was excellent."

I had a delicious roast beef dinner today with a generous portion of meat, vegetables, and perfectly cooked roast potatoes. It was definitely worth the money and I will be returning in the future.

This is a fantastic little hotel. The food was great, especially the well-cooked steak, and the staff were extremely helpful. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the room had a classic contemporary decor with a good shower. They even forwarded my left property to me for just the postage fee. Overall, this inn is excellent in every aspect. Thank you for a great stay. Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5

I have been holding monthly events at the Bear for 18 months for my Live Laugh Love Ladies Club Wareham. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Linda and the team are very efficient, friendly and work very hard. We use the green room which is lovely and spacious with rustic charm. The service is very quick. We've never had a bad meal, the food is very tasty, home made and great quality. If you're looking for a lovely space to hold an event for business or pleasure I would highly recommend The Bear. You will not be disappointed. Thank you to all the team on behalf of myself and the ladies.
