The 22 best spots for nachos in Bournemouth

Had fantastic bottomless brunch! Our server Josh was very attentive and made sure our glasses were never empty. Food has been DE LICIOUS! Wonderful afternoon with friends in great atmosphere. Will definitely come back.

We were here for lunch. We had a Bay burger, Hot chicken burger, brown chicken stew and kingston fried chicken. Everything was really good. A surprise was that the cocktails came 2:1. All in all a very good location with a superb service and a great ambience.

I couldn't fault the last visit. Was served by the manager Claire. She was brilliant, fast and even provided us with drinks not on the menu. Turned on the Aircon for us too as it was very hot. We were then served by Sophia who was also excellent. Very friendly, gave great service and made sure we made the most of our app vouchers and didn't want a tip. Really good service. So much better than before when we had the kids The bottomless brunch has changed, but the food you get is a lot more. Just a few less cocktails but we still enjoyed them Definitely the best bottomless brunch

Joshua was welcoming and happy to keep cocktails flowing. Was lovely to have a chat with him between serving guests and very informative about changes to cocktail menu. Food was amazing too xx would definitely recommend brunch deal.

We went for the bottomless brunch. The food was delicious, the drinks were plenty and our server Maja was great! I would definitely come back again!

We came to celebrate my daughters 21st and OMG we had the BEST waitress. Funny, attentive, friendly, on the ball and just got our vibes. She was so funny having us laughing so much i had to adopt her so she didn't feel left out. The sun was shining, the drinks were flowing and we had an unforgettable afternoon thanks for everything Diandra xx

Diandra served us and she was amazing!!! She kept coming over regularly to get our drinks order, she’s such an icon!

Went yesterday for Afternoon Tea. The staff were most excellent, especially our server. Great value for money at £15 a head. My favourite part without a doubt was the scones. The atmosphere was very relaxed, great views when sat by the window and is disabled friendly with an accessible disabled toilet. Will definitely go there again.

Lovely experience, I went with my friend in Saturday afternoon. Chris was excellent and very attentive even when he came late after our time was finished he asked for more drinks. Amazing service from him, shout out to him and all the best. My friends and I will come back again for brunch 🥰 thanks.

Went for bottomless brunch. From the moment we walked in we were greeted by Chris who was also our server for our table. I cannot praise him enough. He was so friendly and welcoming, he made sure we had drinks, got out food order really quick and the food was good. Great choice available for the price you pay and a great choice of drinks too included. Thankyou again to Chris and all the other staff we interacted with, made our afternoon a great one! We even ended up back there later when they had a dj.

Food was lovely, drinks were great! Amazing quality for money having bottomless brunch! The experience was made even better by having the wonderful Chris as our waiter! Love, Table 321

Chris was the best, supper attentive and just a nice person and never failed to top up our drinks on time! Would come back just for Chris!!! Love Evie, Ryan and Beth x

We had Chris as a host and he was amazing. We’ve done a few bottomless brunches at different S&Ls and this was the best service we have had. Will definitely return when next in Bournemouth 😁

Just had a bottomless brunch served by the lovely Chris. He made sure we were never out of a drink and that we happy at all times! Drinks were fab, food was great and Chris was a legend!

Went in for my partners birthday, took him for food and drinks and it was fab! Great service, great drinks and recommendations. Was still very quiet when we were in there, I think we were 1 of 3 tables sat down but atmosphere was still good and waiters very friendly! Deffo recommend!

Was a quieter evening when we went. Service was good and everything came within a reasonable time. The atmosphere was still lovely and the lady that served us was so amazing and friendly!! The corn ribs were the BEST, honestly wasn’t expecting them to be so good but they were one of our favourites. Would recommend!!

Amazing place. My friend and I chose Ojo Rojo because she needs a decent gluten free me u with plenty of options. We had not visited here before but will definitely be back again. We loved the ambience, look of the place, lovely warm welcome. Great menu choices for food and drinks. We had mulled wine 🍷 on the advice of the server. Every dish was gorgeous and as he predicted we didn't eat it all and took a doggie bag home. The guys that served us were welcoming, friendly and fun.

Came here for dinner on a visit to Bournemouth, it's a great cool spot, staff were polite and friendly from the point we arrived to when we left, good choice of dishes, everything tasted great, and the happy hour cocktails were also fantastic! Well worth a visit if you're in the area, not one to be missed!

Amazing food and service! Visited about 6 on a Sunday evening, and it was quiet. We ordered the chicken enchiladas to share, the chicken and the duck tacos, and 2 tapas, which were the hasselback chorizo and the rojo rice.

Really wanted to love this place. I love mexican food and tapas and this place looked amazing. Unfortunately my high expectations were too high. Half of of the food we had was very bland and some of it was very small. We did like the duck, the chorizo and potatoes though. We'd only order these if we went again We tried 2 of your cocktails and they we really bitter. they're a different type of cocktail compared to most other places. They look amazing but they're very marmite Service was a mixed bag. The Swedish/European guy was amazing but the other guy with the dark hair wasn't. We had to ask him twice for some garlic sauce and didn't know how to process out gift card

While it's temporarily smaller than it was before the food is still as good as I remember - but watch this space as I overheard the exciting new plans and I can't wait!

Came in as a group of 8 during the day to get food. With the place empty we somehow all didn’t get our food even close to at the same time, mine was one of the last to come out and at that time everyone else was done as you can see from picture. Sandwich was dry - had to go to the bar to find someone to ask if they had any mustard or sauces to where I got a salty answer of “whatever’s on the table” Zero percent helpful restaurant was empty so don’t really get how it was so hard to be nice or helpful Also probably would have drank a lot more if you check on the table

I have seen many different menus here over the years but have to say the current menu is brilliant. The deals are great, the staff are friendly and the events are a fun way to spend an evening. I recommend the pub quiz night or the open mic night. The booths also have usb ports to let you charge your phones. The only reason it's not 5 star is because the toilets are downstairs so not great if you have accessibility needs

Had a brilliant time at 60 million last weekend. Went there for a date night with the most beautiful lady I could find... Food was delicious, beer was cold and atmosphere was impeccable. Will be back as soon as possible!

Went here for lunch, food was amazing! Great service and very affordable. Would definitely recommend!

Such a lovely pub / restaurant. The food was fantastic quality and great fair prices. Staff was friendly and the environment felt nice and cosy. Highly recommend visiting this place if you're looking for some good food 👍

Nice friendly speedy service. Was there on a Thursday evening where they have open mic nights which was really good. Children allowed in up until 9pm

I had a fantastic experience thanks to Klaire at 60MPC. She truly went above and beyond to make my visit special. Klaire took the time to walk me through the menu, helping me figure out which items fit my dietary needs without making me feel rushed. Her knowledge and genuine care really stood out. On top of that, she recommended an incredible cocktail that was absolutely perfect. Klaire is a true asset to the team—warm, attentive, and exceptional at what she does!

We booked the deluxe cocktail making package and Billy and Beth were excellent. We were a party of 5 for a 21st birthday. We had a blast, making the cocktails and throwing the ice (a Beatone tradition). You get to be behind the bar and actually mix your own cocktails from a choice of around 10. We had a Bellini on arrival, 2 cocktails and 1 shot. Cowboy hat for The birthday girl, medal, and sunglasses, fabulous and fun and would definitely recommend for a celebration.

Fantasticly friendly barman Ollie. Very helpful and the cocktails were really nice ( basic but nice)

We were on a short break to Bournemouth and I promised my hubby a Bueno cocktail....when we arrived at the bar they had no ice cream for the much anticipated drink! However after a short jokey conversation with the very helpful barman we sat down with another (delicious) choice of drink. Next we knew Billy came over with 2 Bueno drinks having gone out for the ice cream. Absolutely brilliant customer service. Thank you Billy...you made our day!!

Here's a possible Google review for Be At One Bar in Bournemouth: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had such an amazing time at Be At One in Bournemouth! The atmosphere was buzzing from the moment I walked in, with great music and a lively vibe that instantly put me in the party mood. The bartenders were super friendly and absolutely masters at their craft – the cocktails were amazing

A really cosy almost 'speakeasy' vibe to this bar, with an amazing taste of music- everything from the 70's to early 2000's. Absolute masters of cocktails and a menu that will have you stood at the bar for like 5 minutes going "uuuuuhhhhhhhhh" Staff were so helpful and welcomed you the second you step in. Perfect place for a few classy cocktails Also HAPPY HOUR EVERY DAY

Went to 2 for 1 at this cocktail bar. Ollie the bar tender was really friendly and made us great cocktails even helping us decide. Would definitely reccomend this bar.

What a fun night with JD & Chris. JD was an absolute star. Cocktails were so much fun to make. Thank you boys for making my daughters hen do a fun evening xx HIT THE LIGHTS LADS!

I really wanted it to be good as the beer, location and decor is great but the food really let them down. Sunday roast option was quite frankly inedible. The three meat option - presentation was great - however the chicken and the pork were so dry the knife refused to cut it, The pork dinner - well if you like 70% chewy fat this is for you! On a more positive, the chicken burger, cheese burger and mac and cheese were great….. So the moral of the story is don’t expect a nice Sunday roast on a Sunday!

Today had a great gin master class with meal. Tye led our tasting. He was very welcoming, and knowledgeable about gin. He made the experience amazing. I would highly recommend this experience to others. It’s great value for money (5 single gins then a double of your choice) and would be a great gift for others.

The beer is fantastic and the standard food can be great, but the place struggles even on a half-busy evening. Ordered the pork belly Sunday roast - the meat was tough like leather, the potatoes dry like sawdust, and some listed items were missing from the plate. Our waitress was lovely and doing her best, but clearly overwhelmed due to being understaffed. It’s disappointing, especially since this isn’t the first time service and food quality have dropped under mild pressure. Great potential, but too inconsistent - just come for the beer, they can't mess that up!

My family and I did a brewery experience with the master brewer, Connor and his amazing apprentice! Both gent's were amazing and so knowledgeable; he's pretty much a professor in beer! 11/10

Our 25th wedding anniversary. We met at the steam house a long long time ago. Meal and a few drinks to celebrate. Service was very very poor. Waitress came to supply water never took a drinks order, had to go to the bar. Food order came wrong, but rectified. Southern fried chicken burger was seriosly over cooked and very dry. No checks from the server. Had to go to the bar again. Requested desert menus. Took an age to arrive. Possibly due to getting the adjacent order wrong twice. Good beer, but service and food needs serious improvement.

The Southbourne Brewhouse is the jewel in the crown of the chain. We visited for a family birthday and were very well taken care of, especially by Iona who was super nice and helpful. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend the great selection of beers and ciders, along with the burgers which are out of this world.

Amazing Sunday lunch here. Kids portions are big too - easily fed our teenage daughter and wife commented she would have been fine with it too! Service was quick, friendly and the food was worth every penny - not over priced at all.

It was my first time in Bournemouth and I'd ended up very sun kissed and wanted to avoid getting fish and chips at the seaside. I didn't find it easy to stumble upon a place in the town centre, but my friend looked on Google Maps and our tired legs brought us here and what a treat. Everything was great - I'm just a tough cookie to give a 5!

Had dinner at the Cosy Club in Bournemouth with my girlfriend (and our small dog, which was a big plus — they’re pet friendly!). First impressions were great: the place has a really stylish vibe with funky decor and a lively but relaxed atmosphere. Definitely one of those spots where you notice the little touches. The staff were attentive without being over the top, which kept everything easygoing. I went for the cod and chips, and it was a nice twist on the classic — instead of a heavy batter, it came in a lighter breadcrumb-style coating on a big, chunky fillet. Tasted fresh and worked really well. All in all, it was a charming and relaxed experience. A good mix of great food, friendly service, and a fun setting — exactly the kind of place you want for a laid-back evening out.

Absolutely amazing every time we been there. Working my way down to the huge cocktail list and tiramisu is my favourite so far. Will definitely come back.

We had our wedding reception on the private third floor of the Cosy Club in Bournemouth. Everyone commented how lovely the atmosphere was and how amazing the food was. The service was good as they were looking after 20 of us. We had the top floor booked between 12-5 and arrived about 1pm. We had our own private bar and toilets and the undercover deck area which is lovely. They have vegetarian and vegan options as well as options for those who have food allergies. We highly recommend the Cosy Club for private hire events. Please note photography is by Emma Rolfe.

We had the cosy eggs and added the hash browns and some bacon and mushrooms, which extraordinarily good! The staff were super friendly and attentive. The setting is unique and elegant. Word of advice, order double the hash browns, because they are amazing!

Just had a lovely meal here with a group, and overall, it was really enjoyable! The Malvani Chicken Curry was spot on—great taste and quality. The service was excellent and the atmosphere made it even better. My only slight letdown was the 6oz Flat Iron Steak—it could've used a bigger portion and value for money didn't quite hit the mark. The drinks, especially the Amaretto Sour, were fantastic, so I'd definitely come back for that!

Perfect combination of sit-down restaurant and bar. The staff are very kind and helpful, and he food is delicious. In fact we went back a day later because we loved the atmosphere. Just sat there reading a book on a comfy couch and enjoying drinks and food.

Very quiet on the night I visited. I asked for a recommendation on a good beer for around a fiver. , I was allowed to try the pilsner, which I bought for £5.60. Very nice beer for a fair price in the impressive surroundings. Nicely decorated and an impressive looking menu. Look forward to returning.

We visited while on holiday and first impressions were excellent, we ordered at the bar as the app was not working, and were told after ordering (and paying) that certain items were not available. We ordered alternatives which were not as expensive and were not even offered the difference back or any acknowledgement that we had now overpaid. The food was average, slightly burnt cold burger buns and all the meals were just a bit plain overall. Definitely deserve the 3 stars for the decor and lovely atmosphere of the place.

Awesome place with amazing burgers. On the terrace there is these nice beach cottages typically for bournemouth, we just live the place so much so we vent back two days in a row. Not to forget their own beers, also very nice

We came in as a big group and were honestly blown away. The food was exceptional — every single dish was spot on — and the staff were brilliant from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble, everything ran smoothly, and everyone left happy and full! Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be back.

Was recommended this pub, When I arrived the outside looked nice but could do with a bit of tlc. But when I walked in I was pleasantly surprised on how welcoming it was! The decor was beautiful and welcoming! Not to mention the staff especially Phil he went above and beyond to make our experience with you the best.. The food is exceptional! I had the burger, it was incredible. And it’s so nice to be able to taste the beers before buying at a great price.. The garden area is cute with little beach hut booths! Didn’t feel like I was in the centre of Bournemouth.. I will definitely be recommending to everyone. Looking forward to my next visit. Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic pub! From the moment we walked in, the staff were welcoming and friendly. Great selection of beers on tap. We had dinner and were genuinely impressed—the food was delicious and clearly made with care. Highly recommend the steak and ale pie! Portion sizes were generous without compromising on quality.

Absolutely the best chicken burger I’ve ever had, and a really nice selection of drinks and liquors. The atmosphere is really nice and the staff are fantastic. The beer garden is really cute and has a ping pong table, fun for families in the day and fun for a night with adults in the evenings!

Called in for lunch and was very pleased with our choice it was fairly quiet but still had a good atmosphere. The food came out quickly and was very tasty with large portions. The staff were friendly.

We went to the Brass Haus for Sunday brunch, so we chose a pretty quiet time to visit. I've not been in this venue in about 10 years, so I have some memories of how it used to be, but how it is now is so much better! It's great inside! Love the decor, nice music playing, lovely big stage area at the back, plenty of seating and lots of nooks and crannies! The breakfast menu isn't massive, but it doesn't need to be. I had a bacon and egg bap, with a £1 side of hash browns, and loved every mouthful! It was delicious! I genuinely had nothing to moan about, which is rare in current times. The prices were good, the quality was great, and the staff were lovely! Definitely going back!

Really great place. Haven't been here for years and was last here when it was a dive. This place has really changed and is much much nicer. Decor, food, drinks, atmosphere, live music it's got it all. Great bar staff. Friendly and knowledgeable. Live music on Fridays. Great location. Easily send the whole night here. Plenty to do and great food. Will be visiting again when in the area. Definitely a place to go for a night out.

I had a truly wonderful experience at this restaurant. The service provided by Ava was exceptional — she was extremely friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome throughout our visit. The food was of very high quality, beautifully presented, and offered at excellent prices. The environment was warm, comfortable, and tastefully decorated, making it a perfect place to enjoy a meal. Highly recommended, and I will certainly be returning!

This was a blast of the venue for eating breakfast. It's shocking on how much space is here 🤯 Food quality is great and portions were big

Visit this venue frequently and it is nothing but amazing every time. It has a lovely atmosphere and different things for all kinds of people such as their interactive darts and array of live music. I visited last Thursday and the local music night that they had on was fab! Came in today for some lunch and had the fish and chips, very nice. Thanks guys 🙌

Lauren is amazing - make sure you ask for Lauren and you will have an amazing time. Pornstar cocktails are amazing and Lauren looked after us through out the full 90 mins and beyond

Very aesthetically pleasing cosy restaurant with an atmosphere to match! Very much sitting outside under the roofed pergola/terrace with the sound of october rain and beautiful colours of autumn trees. Felt like I was brunching in a treehouse! Lovely vegan options - staff very amenable to swaps too! Very much enjoyed and would love to go back if in the area

It was our first time visiting Urban Garden as tourists in Bournemouth, and we absolutely loved it! The place had such a beautiful atmosphere and vibe. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. There was even some entertainment for kids, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We were treated so well and had a delicious lunch—highly recommend the fish and chips!

Amazing staff and cosy atmosphere! We were looking for yummy fish and chips and this is the place for it! Fresh orange juice was on point 👌🏻 I wish the fries were crispier - they were too mushy to my liking. The burger is awesome!

Urban garden is such a great spot for a sunny day with summer rooftop vibes. The food matched the stunning aesthetic and they do a 2 courses for £22 lunch deal! The service was a little slow the day we went and the food took a while but we didn’t mind because it was a lovely place to sit and the food was worth the wait!

We visited the outdoor terrace of this restaurant on a Saturday afternoon to celebrate a birthday lunch and found it to be an enjoyable experience overall. The setting, with views overlooking the Bournemouth Gardens, offers a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere that suits casual dining occasions. To start, we ordered the smoked haddock Scotch egg. The flavour was well balanced, with the smokiness of the fish complementing the egg nicely. While the yolk would have ideally been runny, the dish was still a strong introduction to the meal and thoughtfully composed. For our main course, we had the Fish and chips. The fish was well cooked and encased in a crisp, golden batter. However, the fish itself carried a slightly muddy aftertaste—likely due to the variety used—which somewhat detracted from the otherwise commendable execution. The hand-cut chips were excellent and arguably the highlight of the plate, showcasing a clear emphasis on freshness and quality. The pea purée had a pleasant flavour but was served cold, likely due to the plates not being sufficiently heated to retain warmth. The house-made tartar sauce, however, was well seasoned and a welcome addition. We also ordered a seasonal local beer, which paired nicely with the meal. It was flavourful and a fitting accompaniment to the dishes. The service throughout was friendly, professional, and attentive without being intrusive, contributing positively to the overall experience. The total cost came to just under £70 for two starters, two mains, and beer, inclusive of an automatically added service charge. Considering the central location, garden views, and quality of the ingredients, this represents good value for money—particularly when ordering from the set lunch menu, even if the selection is understandably limited. While no individual dish reached perfection, the meal was well prepared, the ingredients were fresh, and the experience overall was enjoyable. A fair rating would be 7 out of 10, and we would consider returning—especially for the home made chips and the inviting outdoor setting.

Excellent place! Good food, varied menu and a great vibe. Fantastic outlook over the garden/ park area. We got there just as it opened so got a table quickly but it filled up sharpish so book early!😁

Lovely little place above bournemouth gardens. Excellent service 👏 sadly I did not enjoy my food bit tasteless but my granddaughter enjoyed her muscles a lot! The staff were amazing and helped me decorate for my granddaughters 18th birthday much appreciated!

We’ve spent the weekend in bournmouth on a girls trip and wanted to end with a roast before our travels home. This meal was just amazing I personally had a vegetarian Roast and it was delicious and fantastic value for money with a free drink. Service from the female member of management staff was excellent very friendly, helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. Would 100% go back and recommend. I look forward to returning in July. Thank you for a great experience.

What can I say....excellent customer Service all round, but a special mention must go to the person who welcomed us to our table. Very professional, polite and helpful to every customer. The food was outstanding, very well cooked and tasty. The cocktails on offer were magic.💯👌🏿 We were here for the Bournemouth reggae weekender and decided to explore the town and stumbled across this gem. Really enjoyed our time here and they cater for everyone. Highly recommend. 💯👌🏿

Last day of our holiday and found this wee place. Typical pub grub (which we like) staff were nice and pleasant, drink and food were a great price compared to what we have been paying! Wish found it sooner! Had the roast and it was delish 😋 bit too much for us both, but saved room for dessert... Brownie ice cream and cheesecake... Very nice 😁. Deserves 4 stars. Unfortunately I need to put the toilet down a notch. I use a stick so I use disabled toilets. I am always thankful for them. These disabled toilets were a store room.... Chairs tables and high chairs. There is no side bar on toilet, and also no pull cord for emergencies... They are needed when have a fall! And also there was no soap 😔 sorry I've put a negative about this place... Maybe just change the signing to just toilet... Would come back though!

What an incredible bar! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was spot-on—welcoming, stylish, and full of good energy. The lighting and music made it the perfect place to relax, but still had that lively buzz that makes you want to stay all night. The drinks here are next-level. Every cocktail feels carefully crafted, not just thrown together. I tried a couple of recommendations from the bartenders, and each one was perfectly balanced and unique. You can tell there’s real passion and skill behind the bar. Speaking of bartenders, Alli, Cody, and Danielle were absolute standouts. Not only are they fast and professional, but they’re also genuinely friendly and made the whole experience fun. They gave great suggestions, made sure we were taken care of the entire night, and created an atmosphere that felt personal. It’s rare to find a team that makes you feel like a regular on your first visit. This bar nails it across the board—fantastic drinks, amazing service, and a vibe that makes you want to come back again and again. Huge thanks to Alli, Cody, and Danielle for making our night unforgettable!

The food was as good as pub food should be but the service was poor, didn’t take our menus from the table when we ordered. We are sat on a small table so the space was very needed. Didn’t check back to ask if the food was alright or if we needed any drinks so had to get up to go to the bar to order. Our plates were left on the table for a very long time, even after the waitress had come over to take the payment, not sure why they don’t take clear your table then collect the payment as it is done everywhere else and is far more pleasant. Even though it’s half price not sure I would return with the current quality.

Can't recommend this place enough. Had bottomless brunch and the drinks kept flowing. When we was half empty the staff offered more drinks. The food was delicious. I had king prawns , but my girlfriend had a roast and it was as good as any pub. Get the 2.5hrs bar and enjoy the night

While the food was a little bland, the service and the cocktails were phenomenal on the brunch deal. The waiting staff, especially Goktug (also known as princess) was an absolute highlight of my night. Other staff was also great, especially the lady who with the incredible thighs, who can leg press like 270kg🤯. He kept the energy high while supporting our drunken shenanigans. Please do yourself a favour and come to the dancing jug for some god cheap alcohol, and some fabulous service by the

It was nice ,the pizza was meat filled and tasty but too oily asides that it was a good experience.It had a lot of people in it at the time I was there guess that’s of good sign of a great customer experience.

Easy to find a seat, even on a Friday evening. Place was very warm for midsummer—no fans in sight, which made it a bit uncomfortable. The barman seemed quite miserable… a smile wouldn’t hurt! Menus had quirky wording, which I absolutely loved. Food arrived hot, tasty, and portion sizes were just right. Peas were undercooked, but the steak was done exactly as requested. Gammon was lovely—not fatty—and the chips were great too. Drinks come in either small or large, which felt a bit odd. The music? Fabulous. A fun, nostalgic mix of oldies—none of the usual chart stuff, which was refreshing! Would visit again!

Came in last thursday to have some drinks before me and my friend went out. was served by a lovely girl sophia who said it was her first shift and was the most accommodating and helpful, even offered a lime for our shots. would come again for her amazing service!!

Massive shout out to Laura who couldn't have done more for us. Last minute bookings, and we had decorations and games on the table. Service was fast - plenty of drinks. Food was lovely. But overall Laura made my friends 30th birthday. Would absolutely return and recommend to anyone else looking for a bottomless brunch

The manager this evening 25th June was fantastic. She made it simple for me to make an order for drinks for my daughter’s table as a surprise for her exams .going over and beyond to help me make this happen. Brilliant and helpful , would recommend A****

Honestly without a doubt the BEST burger I have ever eaten! I had the chicken bacon and hot honey burger and it was incredible, the condiments on the table helped to finish it perfectly. I had some ballymaloe relish with my burger and some Guinness bbq sauce for my chips. What a meal!!!!!! Definitely be coming here a lot more often, the team were very friendly and coped well despite the busyness of the venue. All in all an outstanding experience and one I look forward to repeating.

Big up the bartender Joe what a guy. Really made our night. It’s nice having conversations with the general public, it reminds us of the good in the world, Joe embodies that. Enough with the Joe glaze, I’m sure he has a dark side.

No food but had cocktails! And my pa, his lonely Peroni none alcoholic drink (bless him, he drove today). I had Smugglers Zombie, a sip of my mas Porn Star Martini and a Saturn. All uniquely flavoured and fabulously presented. And Will, our bartender and server, a brilliant friendly bloke, even did a Signapore Sling for my mas favourite drink. First time in there, will definitely visit again!

What a fabulous place for a private party! Wonderful atmosphere, the staff were so warm, friendly and extremely helpful, they couldn’t have been more accommodating. We had our own caterers on this occasion The whole evening was a great success! Thank you to all the staff

Will hosted a great cocktail making experience for my sister’s Hen Do. We felt it was the perfect balance of both relaxed and guided cocktail making. The games were a lot of fun and a big hit with all the girls! It was definitely a highlight of the weekend that everyone keeps reminiscing, talking and laughing about. Thank you so much for hosting us. We really appreciate all the effort put in!

I really love this place. The staff are always nice and pleasant. The cocktails are amazing. I've had food on several occasions and it is consistent every time! I'd recommend a great place to book a Sunday roast as its located in the heart of Christchurch and Mudeford just 2 minutes down the road. Looking forward to my next visit. Hope you all love it too!!!

One of my favourite places in Christchurch, an absolute hidden gem 💎 Great cocktails, lovely food, amazing staff and service and if you’re lucky when you go in there may be a live singer!! Spent many enjoyable evenings here!! 5 star ⭐️

Lovely venue and friendly staff who were attentive. However the nachos were not good. Guacamole out of a jar and I had to look for the cheese. Food also took a while and they weren’t busy. Halloumi was good. The drinks here are the key. But the mocktail measure was poor and all ice. The venue delightful with a little garden and background of the castle, but the food especially the machos was poor value and disappointing especially for the price.

Fantastic oasis of entertainment, food and music in a quaint venue full of ye old England culture with a modern twist. A great place to unwind over the weekend.

Good bar with a good choice in drinks and has a different event for each day of the week. Has nice outdoor seating as well with a friendly service.

Very good pub, good price and atmosphere. You can watch football,play poole and fifa on playstation. Always come there to eat stakehouse burger.

Been done up, nice place to drink, plenty of TV’s if you want to watch the sport!

Great food, great drinks and a brilliant atmosphere! Get yourself down for Wing Wednesday too, bloody amazing stuff

Nice pub with good food and drinks. And amazing chicken wings!

This place is awesome. Great selection of drinks with offer of food too. There is a pool room upstairs with big tv for sports. Each game of pool is £1. Private hire fridge is also available upstairs for functions which looked really cool. Last mention to the barman, he was an absolute delight.

Staff are always lovely and polite and the place is always kept tidy. Food is insanely good; so good that I usually eat there at least 3-4 times a week. Monday night quiz is my highlight of every week; I couldn't ask for a better place to go.

Lovely bar & the decor is just fabulous! Very chilled vibes, the service is excellent and the cocktails are phenomenal. You certainly get what you pay for. 10/10 would recommend!

Excellent cocktail bar, relatively new and close to the town centre. You get mostly authentic cocktails - all the classic ones. Not sure if they have food as I didn't see the food menu and I wasn't hungry! Would definitely recommend for 1 or 2 ( atleast!) Cocktails.

If you're looking for a cocktail bar in Bournemouth, look no further! There’s a wide variety of fun and unique cocktails that taste amazing. The bartender was very friendly and able to make anything you ask for. We gave the description of “fruity cocktail” and it was the best cocktail I’ve ever tasted! Great atmosphere and the decor has a cosy feel. If I’m ever back in Bournemouth I will definitely be returning!

Great every time i go here, I've never had a bad experience or cocktail here. Some of the signatures are served uniquely that really add to the experience. The bartender is so friendly and the drinks come quickly even when busy. The environment is comfortable and inviting that really makes for an amazing night out.

Come down from London and we always have to come here as the Cocktails are out of this world, they are unique and the attention to detail is sublime, atmosphere and music is fantastic (Old School) nothing is too much trouble for them , thank you to Kevin & Kasia for being such good hosts, if you like good cocktails, you have to come to this place.

Fantastic service, visited the area for the weekend and returned a few times as the service we received were amazing! And cocktails were fantastic. Will definitely be returning on the next visit. Thankyou!

We first visited 99 Perk in May and since then, we’ve returned almost every week. The cocktails are exceptional, easily in the top best we’ve ever had. Ingredients like the purées are homemade, and even the olives they serve as snacks which are also amazingly addictive. The owners run the bar themselves and they’re great, super friendly and really know their stuff. Every time we’ve asked for a recommendation, it’s been spot on. There’s loads of variety on the menu, and the presentation is always cool without feeling over the top. They could probably make anything you’re in the mood for, even if it’s not on the menu. The vibe is relaxed and the music is always on point. Best place around to have a proper drink

Lovely place! Me and my boyfriend came down for the weekend and we had dinner here, highly recommend the grilled salmon with vegetables and we absolutely love the atmosphere here, also service is great! Rose will be the one taking care of you, she is lovely and caring and looked after us just fantastic was an absolute pleasure ! Will be back in October !

I came here when this place opened in July 2021. Menu was not as good as it’s today. I’m so glad I came back to try brunch again. Coffee is so good and also food options on the menu. Nice and cozy place. Great for all times. Super recommended.

This was the first time and the last to order from this place. Bag and box arrived damaged, oil was dropping everywhere when it was picked up from driver! Food absolutely swimming in fat. Doesn't even deserve 1 star!!!

I really like your food, I have ordered many times before but this time I was really disappointed. May I suggest if you could have better bags for delivery next time, like plastic bags or double paper bags? I ordered food today and my food was spilled as the paper bag broke when the driver arrived.

Really tasty food, excellent service . Reasonably priced with plenty of vegetarian options. Lovely coffee also!!

Amazing food, great coffee & what a lovely atmosphere!!! Such a relaxing environment, comfy furniture and great service too!

A very nice experience, i enjoyed every lunch. My favorite its "caesar salad" . The service its equal with " a la cart" restaurant.....diferent choices of cofees.....i really love this place

We had one of the most disappointing experiences at Slug & Lettuce last Sunday, 14/09. We waited over 40 minutes for cocktails, asked the only staff member we could find three times about them and were completely ignored. Meanwhile, the rest of the staff were in the kitchen laughing and joking instead of dealing with customer orders whilst the manager had her dinner with a large group of friends, perhaps not having her actual break but enjoying some "well deserved" time off. She was right next to us all this time, heard we’ve asked multiple times why is no one even starting the cocktails 30 minutes after we've placed the order but said absolutely nothing, just continued her dinner, didn't even asked another member of staff to sort them out as it's been so long already. The third time we’ve asked about the cocktails no update was provided, instead the waitress apologized saying she had a “more important task” to deal with which we overheard was a cold burger being sent back from a different table. What made the whole situation even worse was the behaviour of the manager, Claire. The first time we spoke to her she claimed she had been “caught up in the kitchen,” but she was actually sat at the table right next to us eating with her friends. Whilst she was sat there, one of the cooks even came over to her table, rolled her eyes, and complained about “someone ordering a bunch of sharers via the app” which turned out to be our order. Truly embarrassing and unprofessional. After she finished her dinner, she went into the kitchen and barely came out of it. Whilst trying to find someone and get an update on the order, I could clearly hear everyone in the kitchen laughing and joking whilst the cocktails were still not even started. In the rare moments someone was actually on the floor, we managed to approach Claire about the cocktails and mentioned it had been over 40 minutes. Bare in mind, the place was empty, only another table of and the manager’s friends. The manager dismissed us, claiming we were lying and that it had only been 20 minutes. We then showed her the order confirmation email, which clearly proved it had been exactly 46 minutes since we placed the first order. When our food finally arrived, almost an hour after, the cocktails were still missing and the order itself was wrong and stone cold. Instead of being told certain items weren’t available, they simply swapped them out without saying a word. Claire shouldn’t be working as a manager in any establishment. She treated the place like it was her own personal hangout with absolutely no regard for customers. Except for a single girl who seemed to actually care, no one else was doing any work. The rest of the staff were literally just sat in the kitchen ignoring orders and customers. We asked for a refund for our entire order and left. This was more than an hour after our first order and joke you not, the cocktails were still not fully done. With Claire working there as a shift manager, we will not be returning and strongly advise others to avoid this location particularly due to the shift manager Claire and her work ethic.

Lovely pub, very big, nice decor inside and has a large outdoor area too.

Had the most amazing bottomless brunch at The Slug & Lettuce Bournemouth! The food was delicious, drinks kept flowing and the atmosphere was great. A huge shout-out to Amber, our waitress, who gave absolutely outstanding service — so friendly, attentive and made sure we had the best time. She really made the experience special. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Slug & Lettuce Bournemouth completely ruined my friend’s 21st birthday. It was hands down the worst experience I’ve ever had in a restaurant. We booked for a group of around 20, and the second we walked in, it was clear they were not ready for us. No table prepared, no staff greeting us, just total confusion. We stood around awkwardly while they tried to figure out where to put us - even though we had booked in advance. After a long wait, we were told to clear and clean our own table. A group of paying guests having to wipe down a dirty table ourselves because no one else was doing it. The table was filthy, and in the process of cleaning it, someone’s leftover food spilled across the table and got on my clothes. Not the end of the world, but still disgusting, and the fact no staff offered to help or apologise made it ten times worse. We finally sat down, and then were completely ignored. No one came over. No drinks were taken. No explanation. When drinks eventually started appearing, they were random orders we didn’t even ask for. It felt like they were just bringing out whatever was lying around. It was supposed to be bottomless, but we only got five drinks over the whole session - if that. Some of us were charged £10, others £15, for the exact same deal. No consistency, no explanation. Over an hour went by before any food arrived, which meant we were already late to everything else we had booked for the night. The birthday girl was literally crying from the stress. Her night was ruined before it had even begun properly. When the food did come, it was a joke. No cutlery. No napkins. No sauces. We had to go up and ask for the basics just to be able to eat. One meal came with four sad little breakfast waffle fries instead of actual chips. How is that acceptable? It felt like no one in the kitchen or on the floor actually cared about what they were doing. And the state of the table just got worse. Rubbish, empty glasses, mess everywhere. I ended up clearing it. I’ve worked in hospitality for over five years, and I completely understand when things go wrong. But this wasn’t a mistake. This was a team that didn’t want to be there, a manager who had no control, and a total lack of organisation, care, or basic standards. To make it even more uncomfortable, we had three security guards posted around us for no clear reason. We weren’t being loud, rude, or difficult. We were just trying to enjoy a birthday, but instead it felt like we were being watched and treated like a problem. It made the whole group uneasy. The only person who showed any decency was Marley, one of the male staff. He was polite and tried his best, and we appreciated that. But he was working in an impossible situation with zero support from the rest of the team. At the end of the night, we spoke to the manager. She gave us a discount - which, let’s be honest, was the bare minimum. But even then, she got angry and defensive when we explained what had gone wrong. No apology. No ownership. Just attitude. And that was the final straw. Management at this place is a disgrace. Whoever runs this venue needs replacing immediately. They are not fit to be running any kind of hospitality business, let alone one taking bookings for big celebrations. We left angry, disappointed, and embarrassed. What should have been a fun and memorable night turned into a complete disaster. Do not book here. Do not waste your time or money. If you care even a little bit about your event, go somewhere else.

Come to Bournemouth for the weekend with my wife and the meal stated it was gonna be a creamy sauce instead it was so sloppy and watery and didn’t taste very nice. So disappointed as I have never wrote a review before and we have eaten in one before and been happy with food.

It's a good job the music is good and the staff are friendly. The service is diabolical. It took them an hour to bring out 10x 241 cocktails (most of which were not nice and only vaguley resembled the cocktail they were meant to be), in dribs and drabs. Not all of our food arrived. It's been 1.5 hours and we are now in discussions with management about our order. Oh and no cutlery - the linguine might be nice but difficult to know when it's stone cold by the time you get a fork. Would only return for music and super quick drinks like a pint. Everyone is complaining about it tonight. The staff are nice...that's about as far as it goes.

Owen, what a babe! Great banter, customers service was great and cocktails were on point!

Whisky tasting experience was fantastic, great fun and so informative. Not just knowledgeable, but terrific range! If you like whisky you must, and if you haven’t visited this little gem before, go along one evening and try one of the awesome cocktails…prepare to be entertained

Very professional and friendly cocktail bar with table service, and they don't insist on charging extra for it!! That is very refreshing. Great choices of drinks, some served in very interesting bespoke containers / glasses. I love the vinyl wall, too. Great atmosphere and not bad prices.

Saw the bar passing by and thought we'd pop in. Izzy at the bar was incredibly attentive, welcoming, witty and entertaining and made a good night into a great night. A definite return when we visit Bournemouth again!

A local gem nestled under wooden barrels and a dive bar aesthetic with a classy twist of good music and better service. Izzy behind the bar was a darling and a diamond! Amazing cocktails ("Whiskey n stuff" is a true icon with taste, attitude and style, just like the venue 😎

Came down for a weekend in Bournemouth and spent 2 of our 3 nights in smokin aces! Amazing atmosphere and really good cocktails- notable mention to Izzy working on the bar, who was funny and attentive. Absolutely somewhere we will be returning to!

Went here for a private whisky tasting before normal opening hours. The range and quality of whisky was excellent, as was the service from the chap curating the tasting. Good value for money, too. Will definitely be back.

Came here with a stag party and we had a fantastic time. The drinks were great, music was fantastic and the lads and lasses behind the bar and even security staff were very friendly and helped us have a great time. Highly recommend a drink in this place if you are in Bournemouth. Especially when it gets livelier later in the evening!

Just had cocktails, which were reasonably presented (expected the Hilton to be well above average), so a bit disappointing - especially for the price. Good, fast, friendly service. The view over Bournemouth, and the solent and across to the Isle of Wight is great.

Me and my sisters loved our afternoon tea recently, food was absolutely delicious!! Scones were super fresh and the cakes - wow!! We were looked after very well and would like to give a big shoutout to Otto and Greg for their kindness and amazing service, always! 🥰

We enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea at the Hilton's Sky Bar. The food was excellent and the staff very efficient indeed. The views across Bournemouth were also great. However, we were a little underwhelmed by the Sky Bar itself. We were expecting something a bit more luxurious and we felt the decor was rather plain and uninspiring. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our visit.

Excellent top tier looking sky bar in Bournemouth. It is located on floor 8 in the hilton hotel. Staff was ultra friendly and they suggested nice drinks. I reslly enjoyed the taste of their spirits snd the quality of the ingredients they use. To be honest the way how they make drinks remind me of a begginner version of the alchemist in terms of being showy but in terms of mixing stuff and achieving great flavours, they are one of the bests. Apart from the mentioned above, the views from Level8 are amazing. You can pretty much see the whole town centee without much effort, being there makes you feel at peace as well. They have quite a big drinks menu so you can always try something new and enjoy a new flavour, they also offer a few dishes to nibble on and they are very elegant and classy up there.

A nice bar to come a drink and relax. Good choice cocktail and spirits available. Prices are reasonable but of course depends what you drink. Service was good and friendly staff made the end of evening nice and the view was great too. Sunsets are great too!

I went there with a friend Saturday evening for a drink. The place looks nice but the staff were not organised at all. There was live music, a pianist, when we arrived at 8pm, which was lovely. They had a band from 9pm and that was nice as well but the it was just way too loud for such a small space. We couldnt hear each other at all thats why we left early. Also Im really disappointed as we had cocktails, the first time they charged us £27 for 2 cocktails the second time they charged us £30.38 for the same 2 cocktails. Im really disappointed of the fact that the waiter over charged us. I will make an official complaint as this should not happen. It seems once you have a drink they think they can overcharge you.

Had an afternoon tea in the Hilton sky bar. First impression was good was a little annoyed they had given away out table as was running 5 mins late, but they placed us by the window on a bar table and that's was okay. The waiters appeared to be attentive initially but I did have to prompt them several time for our tea and are last pot just nether even got served to the table. The afternoon tea itself was okay they had changed the menus that week so was surprised when they brought out a very different selection to what was on the menus on line, which resulted in half our sandwiches not being eaten, if we had know there was horseradish and beef we would have asked for an alternative instead. The puddings and scones where exceptional and the scones where even warm! Overall a very enjoyable experience would consider going again but for £22 a head plus a service charge they snuck on the bill It is very expensive for what you get and the view isn't that great.

Great pub, super friendly with a great atmosphere. Since new management took over a year ago, the place is completely different. It's good for family time or good knees up and always had good entertainment on. Free pool Wednesdays and Duke box Fridays... always a winner.

Came here for lunch yesterday and we were very pleasantly surprised. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The restaurant area was light and bright, the chairs were comfortable and the table was nice and clean. The food was way better than I expected for the price, particularly the Yorkshire puddings and the sticky toffee pudding was really good. I would definitely come again, good food at a good price, what's not to like.

Recently moved to walliadown what can I say about this pub other than fantastic. Great food Great beer. The landlord and landlady are brilliant.Thank you

Just wanted to say David and Kirsty have done a great job. The life and soul of the pub is back! They are friendly and you can have a laugh with them. Well done for your first year!

I recently visited The kings Arms in wallisdown and was blown away by the friendly staff and the quality of service. The team went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. The products I purchased were top-notch, and the entire experience was seamless from start to finish.

Painted pink, drag acts and people singing, man behind the bar in a pink tshirt with an ear ring........Who the hell would eat food here, you dont know where their fingers have been, nah. I don't think so. Avoid this place at all costs. Such a shame, we used to have lots of real pubs around here. Half of them are blocks of flats or coffee shops now. sad to see what this place has become.

Absolutely amazing pub. Been here a few times now with my boyfriend on our dates and it never disappoints. Lovely staff and welcoming atmosphere for young adults like myself. Food is amazing!!! Definitely recommend!!

Loved this gorgeous place in Bournemouth!!! The design of every details are amazing! Cocktails was really tasty. Alsoooo, loveddd their music, such a Goooood vibe!

The cocktails I had were very tasty and the bar staff were friendly. The decor is really nice and the walls and ceiling look hand painted. It loses a star for two reasons: 1. My friend who can't drink was asked by staff why she wasn't drinking. 2. There was a 2 for 1 cocktail deal but mocktails weren't included. This feels discriminatory and it's odd since they're cheaper to make.

Design is nice, but found staff a bit unprofessional. We asked for a recommendation based on favourite flavours and we did not get an advice. What I really did not like was guy being behind the bar, in barman’s area with cigarette in his mouth. Not lighted but still... Some sort of uniform would be nice. In my opinion the cocktail barman should wear shirt and vest. But it’s just my opinion. I ordered margarita at the end. I love margarita, it’s my favourite cocktail and I really don’t like saying it, but this-one was the worst I have ever had. Lovely lime sour cocktail was so sweet that I was struggling to finish it. Was like drinking lime syrup. Didn’t taste tequila at all.

I come here last year for my bday and was really impressed so booked the same again this year. I was really disappointed and it seems to have gone downhill since my last visit. Cocktails are extremely overpriced for what you get, no garnish or anything added to the drinks. 5 of us went and all ordered different cocktails such as bramble, disco diva, bohemian raspberry and the pinacolada one. The cocktails just tasted like fruit juice with some ice. there was also no table service we had to go to the bar to order our drinks, whereas when we attended before the drinks were brought to the table. Such a shame as it used to be such a lovely bar.

Went here for my birthday celebration this Saturday (17th Sept). Booked the bottomless Brunch for £39 each, there was 6 of us. Upon arrival around 14.00 we were told we were late even though the event stated it was 13 - 16 online and on our tickets, and said we had an hour left for drinks having paid for a ticket that stated drinks included for 2 hours. We were shown to a dingy basement room that was too hot and given 3 small pizzas for 6 of us that were ordered in from another venue. The staff commented "these are cold as you're late but you can have them anyway". The entertainment was all upstairs so we just had loud music blaring and a quiz going on with no context or opportunity to join in. After complaining multiple times for almost an hour, we had our time extended for the full 2 hours to drink which honestly should've been the case from the start. It ruined the enjoyment and we struggled to pick the mood back up as we had an hour to try and make the most of the situation. It should be advertised on the website or in the T&C's that they serve drinks only between certain times and that the food is not from the building and in limited quantities. Not sure I'll be going back based on this experience. My only positive comment Is that the cocktails were nice.

My new favourite bar, what a vibe! Absolutely love the interior and the music was on point, reminded me of being back in London. The staff were awesome, bringing so much energy to the service - especially Harry who served us a the bar. We really want to come back and try the boozy brunch!

This venue is different and had loads of character. Celebrated my sister's birthday here and had a fabulous time. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Will definitely be coming back for another great night! Thank you for making it so special

One of my favorite breakfast/brunch spots in Bournemouth. Delicious food, delicious coffee, friendly staff, great location, and very cozy atmosphere.

The concept of the menu items was nice. However, we felt that the quality of our brunch meal was rather lacklustre especially for the price you're paying. In particular, the pancakes that my other half had were quite undercooked and had a strange smell about them, which she did not really enjoy. We found the restaurant decor and lighting to be quite dark, which might not appeal to customers. The service was not too bad, although could be improved as we often saw staff talking in groups amongst themselves. Nevertheless, this place does have potential.

Me and a group of friends went to XOXO bournemouth to try their bottomless brunch for my birthday ! The food was amazing but the staff who served us made our day. They also made sure the drinks were flowing What an amazing group of staff, with a special shout-out to Andy, who went above and beyond for us all! We had a great day and I’ll definitely be returning! Thank you again and if I could give them 10 starts, I would! ☺️🫶🏽

Unfortunately I felt the restaurant was overpriced for the quality. The menu would benefit from smaller dishes that could be had a long side the pancakes. There is a definite need for more vegan options. Potentially vegan bacon or chicken to go alongside a pancakes dish. Although it was a lovely sunny day. The space felt very dark. Would be great to see more plants or bright/light decor. Small details were missing with the food, no salt and pepper on the tables. English breakfast came with bread but no butter. Pancakes felt overcooked and chewy. Staff were genuinely friendly and I feel like this place has potential! I cna imagine if you went for the bottomless brunch you wouldn't care about half the things I've listed!

We had an amazing evening tonight with Andy and Grace being such welcoming and chatty bar tenders they are a real asset to your team. The drinks were amazing and the 2-4-£10 cocktails made them even better!! Will definitely be coming again!

I went here a few weeks back for my 30th and did the bottomless brunch. I was not disappointed! The food was delicious and it well worth the money. Even though my party were booked for a certain time they extended our booking time as our first half an hour we had an unexpected issue! I totally recommend them and will certainly go back again! Thank you for making my first bottomless brunch so much fun!

Been in a couple of times now, dropped in for Brunch on a Saturday, super chilled out, staff were chatty & made us feel welcome! We shared the Huevos Rancheros & the Potato stack, plenty of food, unreal flavours. Loved that it was different do your typical brunch dish. Second time was an evening, different vibe, quality music pretty sure there was a DJ in that night. Cocktails were sick too, Tekiwi sour was a favourite. Staff were class both times, looking forward to visiting again!
