Celebrate as we bring in the New Year every hour from India to the UAE, Egypt, Africa & Europe.  Dressing up for a country is optional but encouraged (and a bit of fun!) and a prize will be awarded to the best dressed.

Our chef has devised a delicious 4-course menu of locally sourced Dorset produce.  So there really is no excuse not to join us!  Give us a ring on 01305 871342.  £40 per person.  Booking essential.

Festive Feast

Hello everyone,

We have SO enjoyed seeing you all back in our cosy pub, and have had great feedback on our new menu.  It’s nice to see the pub and beer garden all lit up with festive lights and to get you even more in the festive mood we are holding a special event on Thursday 17th December from 7 pm – 11 pm.

We have created a real festive treat, full of seasonal goodness and celebration.  Special occasions and fun evenings are in short supply, hence we have created a tier 2, Covid safe night of unadulterated gastronomic bliss.  Come and enjoy some festive cheer with up to 6 people from your household or support bubble and dress to impress. Places are strictly limited in accordance with social distancing rules, so be sure to book your table now by calling us on 01305 871342!  Take a look at the menu below.

We hope to see you there!  Merry Christmas

Jo & Lee

Even though this year was slightly precarious, due to Covid-19, with our strict social distancing rules in place everyone managed to view the beautiful classic and vintage cars.  This year our line up was all British cars – of course, the best cars there are ;).
