Dorchester Restaurant

Very harsh to leave a bad review for this place as it’s still being run as if time stopped just after the war.
Menu’s are still hand typed individually…
Food is not bad but I’m not convinced it’s home made. Have had a roast chicken that must have been cooking for a couple of days and a fish and chips that I think was an oven cook Youngs number.
had some kind of fruit pie with custard like my Nan used to make.
Go here if your taste buds are shot just to support the old ladies running the place.

I rediscovered Dorchester recently. I originally stopped eating here because in the past the prices seemed a little too high, but as prices have risen generally, Dorchester hasn’t kept up to pace so it is now very reasonable for what is on offer. I had a very tasty steak and kidney pudding. The pudding could have been home-​made, ‘though I didn’t ask, and was delicious, accompanied by garden peas and creamy mash, all washed down with a perfect cuppa. My favourite Sunday haunt has been the Taj Mahal oposite, but my late-​morning Sunday stroll down Leigham Court road for lunch will now have me in a quandry… I think I’ll have to toss a coin from now on. Excellent restaurant with good wholesome food.
