Nice pub/restaurant lovely location. Friendly staff. Food was nice but a tad expensive plus a voluntary service charge but hard to say no. Will use again but only on special occasions.

Visited here for an evening meal for two. Food was good, cost higher but acceptable, staff and service ok. Quiet pub where you are able to hear all bar conversations. As we sat there each customer paying for food was shame / guilt tripped into paying a 10 percent service fee / highwayman tax. They make sure others others in the bar listen carefully for your answer to add these fees. I always tip when dining out unless the service is dire, but this felt forced. Uncomfortable experience

Hunters Moon B&B
2 night stay whilst visiting Sherborne. Decent sized en-suite room next to the pub. No pub or road noise. Lovely evening meal and great breakfast. Friendly and welcoming hosts. Would highly recommend.

I Recommend the Hunters Moon.
Friendly staff, good atmosphere in the pub and dining. Good food choice and drinks. Room comfortable, quality breakfast included, they also provided a packed lunch when I could not stay for breakfast.

I absolutely loved my stay. However, on Friday evening they played the same disco song on repeat for hours and hours. I didn’t complain but surprised no one did. Still, highly recommend!

A Little Gem In Dorset.
Conveniently located for touring Dorset with ready access to the countryside and coastal walking. Good selection of beers and ciders. Efficient staff and food options to suit all tastes. The option to have small prtions at dinner was very welcome and more hotels and pubs would do well to follow Dean's lead.
