Thirteen

222, Ashley Road Parkstone, Poole

Had our third visit to this amazing restaurant and experienced for the first time the full 13 course tasting menu from the chef's table. Every course was varied and exceptionally flavourful, the standouts being the egg and mushroom, the very moreish cheese churro's with cheese and truffle dip, the goat and lime samosa and the fig parfait, but in truth it was all exceptional. Hem, Elisabeth, Alex and the entire team (Frances was on holiday for this latest visit) always make you feel exceptionally welcome and the atmosphere was as always very homely, friendly and relaxed. Watching the chefs and the entire team at work from the chefs table made an amazing evening a great way to celebrate our wedding anniversary.The restaurant team very kindly acknowledged our celebration with a lovely card which was signed by all of them.

The 13 course tasting menu is expensive and an indulgence, but for a fine dining experience is not to be missed. My wife and I try to have a couple of high quality meals each year and over time have visited some of the countries finest restaurants many of which have stars and Thirteen is up there with the best of them both from the standard of the food and the level of service. Having this in Upper Parkstone, where we live, is the icing on an exquisitely baked, presented and very flavourful cake.

Lovely old pub with good choice of beers. Food was very nice, though a bit pricey. We had smoked haddock pots and fish pie, served with good French bread and all very tasty. This is a pub where they don’t serve chips, so I think we felt a bit shortchanged with not quite enough to eat. \nThe booking was efficient and service excellent.

Shah Of Persia

173 Longfleet Rd, Poole

I was looking for a 1 night stay in Poole, and this came up as the cheapest in the area.

Prior to arrival, I received an email with a link to fill in my details, to speed up the check-in.

Upon arrival, found plenty of spaces in the car park, and free parking is a bonus.

Staff were very friendly and helpful at check-in.

The room was clean and had everything I needed. It was also quiet, which meant I had a good night's sleep.

I was emailed a link as well to check out, so was very easy.....selected a check out time on the link, and left the keys in a box on the way out.

Location is very good. Bus stop outside goes into Poole centre one way, or Bournemouth the other.

Would definitely stay here again.

Guildhall Tavern

15 Market St, Poole

We went for a family birthday lunch to what is largely a French restaurant with an Asian fusion twist, set in a former pub and which specialises in fish and seafood but also offers simple and delicious grilled meats.\nThe place is attractively decorated in blues and maritime symbols, and all the glass sparkles.\nThere are three steep steps to the front door but the dining area is mostly level. A staircase leads to an upstairs cocktail area.\nWe each chose different starters: a partridge Kyiv, fish soup, scallops offered with different sauces and a crab crumpet. For mains 2 of us chose the massaman seafood curry and 2 the grilled fish and seafood platter, served simply with samphire, frites and bearnaise sauce although there was a comprehensive list of further sides to choose from if required. Desserts were delicious and our birthday boy was served a complimentary chocolate ice cream with a sparkler to celebrate.\nBetween us we tried 3 different wines, French and Lebanese, and 2 dessert wines, one white and one red, all of which were well chosen. Our driver enjoyed a well flavoured mocktail.\nTwo small niggles: the diners at the other tables who were already seated had perhaps all arrived at the same time as many trays of drinks went out before our first drinks were served, and we were not offered the choice of tap water which, on reflection, seems a bit out of touch.\nBoth cooking and service were excellent. This is not casual dining for most of us and the final bill meant that we shall look forward to going again but it will be for an occasional treat.\nThe restaurant is located in narrow cobbled streets so the nearest parking is in various municipal car parks.

Rockfish Poole Seafood Restaurant

9 The Quay, Poole

Everything was amazing at the restaurant, including accommodation of our request for gluten free everything as one of our party is coeliac. We had the calamari, sardines for starters, mussels and bream for mains and sticky toffee pudding and creme brulee for dessert - all seafood was super fresh and really high standard of cookery (calamari was not greasy at all and had a v crispy GF batter; mussels really fresh and delicious cooked in white wine garlic) we absolutely loved every dish. So good to be able to have GF sticky toffee pudding that tastes exactly the same as normal! And most crucially that we can dine here without worrying about the food not being properly GF/cross contamination issues as the restaurant is accredited by Coeliac UK; we also would like to credit the fantastic service of the kind staff who immediately put us at ease despite our questions / concerns about coeliac friendly food. Would 100% recommend - the team at Rockfish will take good care of you!

Pizza with Love

Langside Ave, Poole

Wow!! What can I say other than thank you! The amazing Rachael and her Pizza With Love team provided our evening catering for our recent wedding. Right from the very first enquiry Rachael was so helpful, she was an absolute pleasure to deal with.
Fast forward to the day and although the weather wasn’t playing ball that didn’t matter, the team came up with a plan to move serving inside, it worked seamlessly (I’m so sorry for you having to get wet bringing them in) no one was aware it wasn’t the original plan.
The pizzas themselves, absolutely outstanding. Nearly 2 months later and my guests are still talking about how incredible they were and how much they enjoyed them. My only regret is that I didn’t order more so that I could have taken a whole car load home with us!
I’d have no hesitation in recommending Pizza With Love for any event, and actually have already put my brother in law in touch for his future wedding!
Thank you Rachael and the Pizza With Love team. We will definitely come and see you and one of your pop-ups soon ?
