We had a wonderful birthday lunch for my daughter at The
Clockspire. The staff and the ambience were just what we
could have wished. We look forward to returning soon.

The Clockspire never disappoints. The service, food, atmosphere, and overall quality are consistently exceptional. We?ve been coming here every year for special occasions since 2022, and each visit feels just as memorable as the first.

Wonderful bar and restaurant! We had the 3 course Set Menu to celebrate my birthday. Really tasty food. Recommend you get the bread and butter! Good selection of unique alcoholic drinks and mocktails. Friendly and professional staff. Free parking.
Don't think there's a strict dress code but most people were dressed smart / smart-casual.

If you are in the area, you absolutely must visit The Clockspire! Staff was great and accommodating about allergies. The food was unique, flavorful, and well presented. We went for the Sunday lunch so the menu was quite limited, but everything we had was delicious. The restaurant's interior is beautiful and perfect for a special occasion or just a nice dinner. I would love to try other menus in the future!

A long overdue review. We stumbled across The Clockspire Restaurant when we were driving from London to Dorset on our holiday back in 2021. We were hungry and my wife found you on google when we were nearby, we managed to phone and asked if there's a table available for lunch, we were initially told fully booked and the line was cut due to bad signal, but the restaurant phoned us back and kindly arranged one if we agree to have a shorter lunch (~1 hour), we agreed. When we arrived we were very pleasantly surprised by the ambience! I mean I was not expecting a fine-dining restaurant! We were feeling a bit embarrassed as we were in jeans and t-shirts while all other guests were dressed like going to a wedding :)
Nevertheless we feel very welcomed and the food was excellent, My lamb was sweet and tender, we both enjoyed the restaurant so much that we talked about this experience every time we mention our trip to Dorset. Guess what, we are planning another Dorset trip with friends (thus my review). We will make sure we visit again.

We had a amazing night the service was second to none we felt so welcome and special. The food was beyond works and worth every penny. We will definitely be revisiting and highly recommend others do too

The garden pea tart starter was absolutely divine, particularly the figs. The Honey Bees and Apple Orchard Mocktails were delightfully delicious. My friend described his chicken breast main as the best chicken he's ever had.
The service received from both the bar and restaurant was impeccable.
The setting, fantastic food, and brilliant staff, combined to give us a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Clockspire, and look forward to visiting again.

I cannot praise this location enough. Everything is done to perfection here. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and attentive - but not overly so. The design and style of the restaurant (and bar) is wonderful and the food is superb.
We are very fortunate to be able to eat at very good restaurants and this one is up there with the best.

A beautiful building with service and ambience to match. The food is of the highest quality and presented beautifully. The lunch-time prix-fixe menu also makes this place excellent value. A really great experience which is highly recommended

I have been to Clockspire so many times but I must say that the roast sunday lunch on 6.7.25 was the best one I?ve ever had. The best lunch ever. Finished with an amazing dessert. It was our first time to bring our close friends in Milborne Port, Im so glad Clockspire did not disappoint and will go back again.??
