In my opinion the best seafood I’ve tasted in the area. Quality cooking fresh in a grungy historic atmospheric setting. Genuine freshly made puddings well presented and friendly helpful service. No chips but that’s to their credit when you taste the fabulous food.

Makisu Sushi Bar Pan Asian Restaurant

Curious if the five star rating is actually deserved, we tried out Makisu and we were not disappointed. The sushi and everything else we tried was of great quality and taste and the service was friendly. Note that this is mainly a takeaway with some indoor and outdoor seating, so do not expect utilities like bathroom. We will be back next time we come to Poole!

Booked Christmas Eve lunchtime. Expected it to be busy, and it was, but the food and service was the usual 5 star plus standard. We never go wrong at this restaurant. Every course was just yummy, I had the steak, would highly recommend, the starters and desserts were gorgeous. The service was professional, prompt and friendly. Looking forward to visiting again in the New Year. The Guildhall can rightly claim to be the best restaurant in Poole

Pizzeria Valona

We stumbled onto this while looking for somewhere to eat rather than where we were in Sandford.

As people that really love Italian food and have enjoyed several trips across Italy we were very impressed.

Bruscetta was so nice. I dont normally enjoy balsamic vinegar but this was so nice. Pizza is fantastic and better than what ive had in Naples. The affagato took me straight back to Florence, beautiful. The tiramisu was also really nice.

They stock the red label Peroni which ive only managed to have across the Mediterranean and is much better than what we get in thr UK.

Topped off by a complimentary limoncello shot each. Very reasonable prices and fantastic meal all round, wish this was more local to home so we could visit more. When we come back down we will definitely revisit.

St TrOpez Lounge

Had one of the best, if not the best, meals ever!

I had Coquille St Jaques Mornay, which was a feast for the tastebuds with every bite.

My partner had lemon sole fillet in tempura, which he said was very nice with the salsa.

For dessert I had the St Tropez Chocolate Dome which was amazing! A party in a bowl, and a must for lovers of all things chocolate! Different flavours and textures, with a delicious sauce.

My partner really enjoyed his crêpe au chocolate.

The service was top notch, very friendly and welcoming.

You know a restaurant is special, when you hear nearly every other diner greeted with 'So nice to see you again!' by the staff.

We've said if we ever win big on the lottery, we'll buy an apartment on the quay and eat at St Tropez Lounge every day!

P.S. Apologies for being somewhat underdressed compared to other clientèle, but we came straight off the ferry from Brownsea.

Rob's Filling Station

158 Stanley Green Rd, Oakdale, Poole

This was one of the best full English breakfasts I’ve had. Easily 5 stars.

You will find yourself sitting in what feels like a car park behind some Heras fencing on an interesting collection of wooden garden chairs, but in some ways gives this place its own charm...

The food was fantastic. Good quality ingredients, generous portions, and everything was cooked exactly how a proper breakfast should be. It was hearty, comforting and some items like the bread and hash brown were homemade (I think).

The value for money is excellent too. £12 for a full English of this size is amazing.

The service was really friendly and welcoming. Nothing felt rushed.

A proper gem. I’ll definitely be back!

The Portsmouth Hoy

The Quay, Poole

Stopped by for lunch without knowing anything about this lovely pub.
We are both gluten free and the menu is brilliant if you are. Shared the fish and chips which came with 2 fish cooked in a gluten free beer batter. I normally leave most of the batter but not here. I'm 63 and firstly it's the tastiest piece of fish I can remember eating and the batter was to die for. Simply the best fish and chips I've ever had. Bar staff and chef were all pretty much perfect really. Visited on 11 February 2026 and I cannot recommend this pub highly enough for anyone, especially gluten free. If I didn't live in Lancashire I would be there every week. It might only be fish and chips but done to this standard it's the best meal I have eaten in a very long time.

Then the food arrived and it was amazing, fresh and delicious from start to finish. I cannot recommend enough, if only there was a sixth star.

The bar staff we very helpful in guiding us through the app. There is seating inside and out, toilets both inside and out. Parking available. They asked if there were any dietary restrictions each time we visited. We were not disappointed with any of the meals we had, they were hot and tasty.

What a really lovey evening, fantastic food, great attentive service and a great atmosphere. Dishes we had were Monkfish with vegetables which was really lovely & so well cooked, Wild Boar Ravioli, really lovely & so tasty and a Tagliatelle Carbonara which was gorgeous. Starters were beautiful, Baked goats cheese & Whitebait all very nice. The traditional dip of olive oil & balsamic vinegar with warm ciabatta was a really lovely start to a fantastic meal. Everything freshly cooked, we could see Marcello working hard in the kitchen, & served really hot. Great restaurant would highly recommend.

Rope & Anchor

Popped in for a Sunday roast here and my goodness it did not disappoint! My friend and I tend to travel around Dorset on a Sunday for a tasty roast dinner but we would be hard-pushed to beat the Rope and Anchors' offering.
Lovely beers and wines, staff are welcoming and attentive and the owners are lovely, down-to-earth people.
Back to the roast - meats cooked superbly, golden crunchy fluffy roast potatoes, delicious roasted carrots, maple glazed roasted beetroot was new for me but stunning, and beautifully cooked fresh kale.
Went for ALL the added extras; pigs in blankets, honey glazed parsnips and cauliflower cheese, which were all equally amazing, (I could eat a vat of that cheese sauce!)
The crowning glory is the gravy, which I was informed is made the proper way, from proper meat stock.
Stunning food cooked by chef Tom - will certainly be back for another roast, as well as to try other dishes!
