Some great local restaurants!
Food scene
Here are some of our favourite places to eat and drink in the local area. Bournemouth town itself also has many chain restaurants. But these are a bit different, more local and worth a try! There are so many lovely places so if you are keen to find anything in particular just ask!
Lovely food, cocktails, chilled vibe. Good for breakfast too. Large outdoor area. Close to the apartment.

Bar, Deli and restaurant on Boscombe sea front. Lovely walk along the beach from apartment. Great mixed menu, decking on the sand. Upstairs mezzanine is lovely for dinner at night overlooking the sea. They also own a pizza takeaway next door (The Woodoven) which is really nice.

Proper dirty burgers, fries and cocktails! This place is a hit with my kids (and husband!) family run and they do 2 for 1 Tuesdays which is a bargain! Short walk along towards Pokesdown Station and located next door.

Amazing! Best bakery in town. Fab selection of freshly made cakes, breads and pastries as well as savoury items. Couple mins walk from the flat. You need to get there early as there can be a large queue as it’s so popular. They have a couple of tables inside and serve great coffee too.

This is a firm favourite with locals here. Lebanese and Moroccan food, Mezze, platters etc. the tables spill out into the street with live music some nights and generally a lovely atmosphere. They do great take away too. Highly recommend the toasted wraps and peri chips!

A short walk into Southbourne. We love this place! The Larder House is reflective inside and out of Europe's more traditional bygone eras. From its rich, bottle green facade to its provincial European-style restaurant and bar space complete with hanging hams and wine barrels and candlelit-clad tables. Gorgeous outdoor garden space too. A somewhat unique cooking method with its wood-fired oven. Owned by same person who owns Terroir Tapas and the cheese shop opposite Parlamentory, very focused on local produce and sustainability.
Unique prohibition era style cocktail bar upstairs (The Library) which you can book at the restaurants discretion on a few set nights a week only! Secret place of the locals with some amazing drinks.

*New Michelin Star * At Terroir they have a modern take on small plates. Do not confuse this with Brits abroad kind of tapas. A wine bar where you can turn up and drink, and eat, without needing to book. There's a huge aim of sustainability and zero waste. Just check out the toilets and the fish tank to understand what's going on. Different but so nice!

Now Chef Carlos! Traditional Spanish tapas and deli. Located in Southbourne. Lovely food to take away, huge portions too. They can portion up the tapas cold and you can reheat at home. Ideal if looking for something different from the usual take away.

I love this place! Gorgeous hotel and spa located right on the river at Christchurch. There’s a little boat you can catch from this side! The main restaurant has a beautiful menu and is more formal. Or there is a lovely outdoor and bar area too for lunches or afternoon tea where you can sit right on the river. Little bit of luxury. Great play park/water park opposite for kids too.

This little gem is located in Lower Parkstone/Ashley cross which is on route towards Poole. Worth a stop on the way back if you’re in the area. Stunning Asian Fusion and Sushi. You need to book in advance as it can be difficult to get a table. You’d need a car or we tend to jump on the train at Pokesdown which is direct in ten mins. Then nobody has to drive! They also do a kids menu. Loads of lovely bars in the same area if you want to make a night of it!
