Fine Dining at The Bear

Our brilliant and innovative head chef at The Bear will be unveiling an amazing new menu this autumn...
Our ethos at The Bear is to support small local businesses – from hand picking local produce, to finding the best quality meat the Jurassic coast has to offer.
Our menu takes inspiration from Mediterranean flavours with a modern British twist. Alongside sourcing our produce locally, we encourage the kitchen team to be inspired by seasonal produce and the fantastic array of ingredients they have at their disposal. From our south coast day boats for our fresh fish to the wonderful meats that are produced on our beautiful Jurassic Coast and Fossil Farm and the hand-picked fruit and vegetables from the New Forest – our menu showcases these local ingredients.
Our autumn menu also has a wonderful selection of in house curated cocktails that encompass some of the finest south coast spirits & seasonal flavours.
A special mention needs to be extended to the two fantastic owners, Janet and Chris, whose vision and determination has provided not only a wonderful relaxing atmosphere for our diners but also the bespoke bedrooms individually finished.
Our driving force comes in the form of our innovative chefs, whose creative minds are always looking for the next challenge.

Look out for our Autumn menu!
We are really excited to launch our special autumn menu which will celebrate the great variety of quality local ingredients Dorset has to offer. From nibbles to a light lunch or a three course a-la-carte menu, we have something for everyone!
With freshly grilled local meat and fish, Mediterranean inspired dishes to the best of British. Not forgetting some inspirational vegetarian dishes too.
