We had an excellent Birthday lunch at The Thimble Inn today. The Beef Roast and the Ham, Egg and chips were very good. The puddings were scrummy and beautifully presented, the Birthday boy even had chocolate art-work on his plate. The friendly helpful staff made the occasion even better.

The food is awful here. There did not appear to be any other customers despite it being a lovely sunny evening so the kitchen was not exactly overworked. A very small piece of pan fried salmon was supposed to be served with potato gratin but came accompanied by some stale, lukewarm sauté potatoes and no explanation for the variation. A few bits of lukewarm broccolli, green bean and swede dotted around the plate did not make up for the absence of the expected gratin. There was a blob of something yellow in the middle of it all which could have been mayonnaise, hollondaise or phlegm, it was hard to tell from the taste but it was warm and slimy. At over £12 this was poor value. My friend’s sausage and mash were ok.
The apple crumble consisted of apple which bore more than a passing resemblance to the tinned product, with undercooked powdery crumble which shot across the table in a cloud when my friend blew on the very hot (microwaved?) apple to cool it. The grounds are beautifully kept and in a lovely spot but the food spoilt the occasion.

A traditional thatched village pub, right on the main road so easy to find. Beautiful views of Dorset fields and grazing horses (plus a bit of car park and a fish-filled stream, running both by its side and under its back door. There is a pub garden with lots of room and chickens for the children to watch. Close by there are attractive walks and a very good children’s playground. Apparently there is a glassed-over well outside the gents.
Sadly the food is not quite as good as the setting; portions are small (only two very small roast potatoes per person) and every single one of the dishes I wanted to try was off. (Maybe that is why I am being unfair to the food!) The beers include the Ringwood Old Thumper at 5.4 per cent. There’s local Tanglefoot ale, plus bitter from Palmers of Bridport, which has been in business for 110 years and has got a thatched roof to prove it.
All in all, a lovely place to visit for lunch on a sunny day — just maybe stick to sandwiches or chips.
