The West Bay, West Bay

Easily the best pub in West Bay. Friendly service, clearly well cared for, with a smattering of locals which the other pubs don't have (always look for the pub locals go to when visiting seaside towns, as they usually know best!).

I'm slightly concerned about giving too much praise, in case the great unwashed discover the place. A little gem that needs to be kept as secret as possible for us to enjoy!!

Bridport Arms Hotel, West Bay

The location next to the beach and near to the caravan park/camp site means that to chase the dollar they have decided on a quantity over quality business plan.

As a result, while it serves it's purpose, it has lost any character that it may once have had. While there is nothing shocking about it, there are few, if any, high points.

If you are looking for a proper pub in West Bay, head for The West Bay about 75 yards down the road.

The Crown Inn, Bridport

Not one for the well-heeled clientele. A basic boozer that will appeal to some, not to others. Not to me, I'm afraid. Sorry.
