Yet again a lovely lunch and good beer, possibly the best view in England also. The crab sandwiches are fab. Not the poshest pub but lovely all the same.

Gone down hill since my last visit,decidely average food and needs a refurb.Palmers wasnt on best form either.Please dont rest on the laurels of the excellent location!

yes, good pub, especially in summer. good Palmer's...usually. It's bound to be expensive for all the tourists.

Great location although parking a bit awkward. Palmers beer served well although very pricy (£3 for a pint of 5% bitter brewed within 5 miles of pub!!!). Landlady very very friendly.....

Fabulous pub. Great food, great beer, unbeatable location.
Went there for some food lunchtime. I had a fabulous Boulabaise and my wife had a Lobster salad which was also lovely. Prices not cheap but not particularly expensive either.
We sat outside in the sunshine and had our lunch while our kids played on the beach a few yards away...fantastic.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Why do they have signs saying no muddy boots etc when there's nothing inside that could get any dirtier anyway? Lovely location but needs some work done to it and beer quality very variable.

The beer at this pub is top class; great pints of Palmers for sale. This is what a westcountry pub really is - it's not a mock-up for city ppl like sum places are. The beer garden is pretty much clifftop, with a 180-dgree viewe of the see, accross to Lyme Regis one way and to Portland Bill on the other, and itlooks straight down onto the beach only 15 yards away. We've enjoyed many summer evening pre-beach bbq drinks here and it kicks sum serious ass!!

Caroline-osaurus! Jeepers! Food quality has taken a nosedive since David & Sadie left.

Beer too. Sadly because this pub has such lovely free views coutresy of nature, the landlady feels its OK to charge an extra 50p a pint more than a free house in Charmouth.

Just stayed at the local campsite. Enjoyed this pub, it's like turning the clock back! Great location and friendly staff. Even had a game of connect four with the locals!! Watch out for the clock behind the bar...very confusing after a few too many!!

Fantastic location by the beach in a small hamlet. Beer OK but expensive, but the food looked good. Beware, limited parking at the pub, and it costs £3 to park in the beach carpark.

Was better when the previous landlord was there. Present landlady kept on giving me the eye - v. odd. Pricey!!!

Superb.

Just spent three nights at a local campsite and ate & drank there every night. Food was cheap, plentiful and delicious; the beer was pretty good also. The beer garden takes in the whole horizon with cliffs rising either side. Bar staff were chatty and pleasant, and the service was good. Check out the memorabilia on the walls if you go; it provides a history of the place going back centuries. A great old pub by the coast.

Fantastic pub right on the beach, under the shadow of Golden Cap(highest cliff on the coast).
Serves Palmers of Bridport
Good food.
large beer garden over looking the beach
