The Old Thatch | Award Winning Freehouse Pub & Artisan Store
This is an idyllic pub, that infuses a traditional feel with modern design for it's decoration.The food here was fantastic, I had a chicken and mushroom pie that was spot on! The vegetables that came with it were perfectly cooked and left me very impressed. Those dining with me also had the vegetarian.mushroom option which they enjoyed equally as much. We each had desert and drink. The deserts looked.and tasted great and they had a nice selection of local beers available.Our waitress was friendly, accommodating and attentive. I cannot fault our visit to this pub/restaurant and will certainly be returning.

My favourite place to eat. Top quality food, best meals I've ever had... And the setting is brilliant. There is an outside area with tents, and a stage for music and pizza place. Inside there is also a little shop selling local goods and flowers. It's very cosy inside and staff are good. I recommend the fish and chips, pie of the day, fish goujon panini, mozzarella and tomato panini and the pork roast!

Popped in here after a lovely dog walk. On Saturdays they do brunch! We all had the Thatch full breakfast which was perfect topped off with a Bellini! Service was spot on, very friendly and efficient. There is also a little shop on the premises with fresh bread and other bits and bobs! Dog friendly.

I had booked for a party of four for Sunday dinner. We were not disappointed, we were looked after on arrival by Rachel who served our table. The serves as very good and wasn't waiting long between courses. The food just melted in your mouth and so far the best Sunday roast out that we've had locally to us in Ferndown. We will definitely return again.

The Old Thatch in Stapehill, Wimborne, Dorset, a 17th century pub which sits directly opposite historic Stapehill Abbey has a very warm and welcoming feel to it, from the roaring fireplace to the friendly smiling staff.My wife and I decided to try this place out as we had heard great things, and we were not disappointed. We had not booked, but the staff found us a lovely cosy corner next the fire. The seating was very comfy and I could have stayed all afternoon.The staff was very attentive and a drinks order placed within a few minutes of sitting down. After a quick study of the menu the waitress brought over the drinks order and took our food order.The starter arrived in good time and it tasted fantastic, fresh and full of flavour, once finished the waitress wasted no time in clearing our plates and again the main course arrive shortly after hot and freshly cooked. The mains were perfect, the pie was great and the vegetables cooked to perfection, crisp and full of colour. The deserts followed and again food heaven. So what does this place score for us.Atmosphere, 5 starsService, 5 starsFood quality, 5 starsPrice, 5 Stars

I'd not been to the Old Thatch for many a year - quite a different pub these days! I went on a Saturday evening, and I'd describe it as a large family dining venue, with a small bar area (wasn't sure what to expect reading the website, and I couldn't see much detail on there about the multi" awards won

The Old Thatch - Ferndown DorsetFIVE STAR - Everything !!Sunday 10th Dec 12.45 - Table 16Saw a recent advert regarding The Old Thatch and its award winning menu !!Thought I'd make a chance phone call and try to book for Sunday Lunch....fitted us in and we were not disappointed.The pub is beautifully decorated for Xmas, not too over the top. As you walk in the door there is an instance relaxing feel to the place....atmoshere great (log fire burning).We were shown to our table and served by REI, who was welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful. The Lamb Roast and Turkey Roast was excellent and arrived quickly. Can see why it's won awards !!The team were superb, REI in particular was extremely helpful and gave great service (thank you).We will most definitely visit again, REI explained that we should come in the week as the menu is terrific.....we will.Thanks again.....I do hope REI gets the recognition she deserves, lovely to see a team member take her job so seriously and professionally so nice with it.REI asked if we were happy with our meal and mentioned that service was added to the bill and were we happy for it to stay on the bill.....instead of so many places just adding without a care it was such a nice thing to do, ask if we were happy !! Well done, and yes we were delighted with the meal and service !!Good car parking round the back too....we will be back, have great Xmas everyone.ThanksJulian & Amanda
