The best restaurants in Melcombe Regis Weymouth and Portland South West

My partner and I stopped here for brunch today. After reading the limited menu, we decided to go elsewhere. As we were leaving, a woman, who I presume was the owner, came over to us. I explained to her that there was little on the menu that took our fancy. The menu consists of a handful of brunch options. The owners reaction to us leaving, was to patronise us by making condescending comments around how they specialise in ‘healthy food’ and if we wanted ‘burgers and chips’ we could go further down the harbour. We won’t be returning having previously eaten here before as locals.

Attended this cafe/restaurant with my family. Seated outside. Nothing was too much trouble and staff were very accommodating and helpful. We ordered: Milkshake - strawberry (son loved this) Pot of tea Queen Charlotte Breakfast King George Breakfast Child’s Breakfast Price £36 - with the state of the economy today, I thought was very good. There are three tiers of breakfast Queen (normal) to Henry (largest) All cooked to perfection. Not greasy and very tasty. Very hard to come across a true family run business these days and this definitely one. Not near the main footfall of holiday maker traffic, situated over the road from another icon premises Marlboro Chip Shop near the harbour. A must visit if you’re in Weymouth. Popular with local residents too. I’ve attached menus for peoples benefit.

A lovely little cafe with the best cakes. The owner is very friendly. We could see why it won't the best cafe in Weymouth award. A bit hidden away, although in the very centre,but definitely worth finding

Had heard good things about this little cafe/shop, so thought we would give it a go. Parking was a bit odd, as we parked outside then saw that there was a requirement to pay via a QR code 🙁 the Chef came out and pointed us in the direction of some free parking, but could imagine it might get tricky at busier times or during an evening pop-up dinner. There were four of us for brunch, we sat upstairs. It is obviously a re-purposed industrial unit, but it was welcoming, nice crockery, some wall art. The waitress couldn’t do enough for us. Two of us had the frittata and two had the Dim Sum. Everyone said how tasty theirs was, and plentiful. Good price. We would definitely go back, and would like to try a pop-up dinner.

Not near the main drag of Weymouth beach but next to sealift centre with car parking. Easily walk down the promenade to it and cross a road took 10 minutes. Fantastic service, food - thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast and a very reasonable price. I have attached menus for customers new and old to see. Worth a visit in my opinion.

Had amazing tapas last night. The food was delicious, the flavours of all the dishes we tried were excellent especially the chicken and chorizo paella. Marcelo is so friendly and welcoming. We will be back

Ordered on Just eat, super fast delivery, piping hot, fresh and delicious! The value for money was outstanding, and it tasted just like authentic pizza from Italy. We had garlic cheese pizza and a Zazza. Definitely worth getting, I’d order again - so much better and cheaper than other well known pizza places (mentioning no names!)

Great food freshly cooked in there kitchen affordable prices very friendly staff and owner we we will go there again they tell me 95% are regular customers

Lovely lunch today Staff were lovely ,polite and friendly They Welcome us especially our dog Thanks we will be back

Lovely cafe on Weymouth Promenade with outside seating giving excellent views of the beach and bay. Good quality coffee at very reasonable prices.

This is one of the most amazing places to eat in Dorset. Fantastic food, great owners a true, fabulous gem of home cooked foods. The cakes are fantastic.

Stopped by here when I was out in Weymouth it’s a lovely cafe, friendly staff and great food!

Fab, fab, fab. Went for lunch today. Lobster (caught that day just around the headland), chips, salad and corn 🌽. Absolutely perfect. Owner and staff so friendly and accommodating. Location is superb. Wine/beer/drinks menu extensive. Can't recommend it enough.

Wonderful little Italian bistro in main street Weymouth. There were rumours some time ago that was going to close and I'm so glad that it hasn't - they will have my custom for years to come. A really friendly welcome, easy seating, and super food served with a smile and a bit of banter of you'd like (I do like !). Pizzas excellent, pastas lovely and the lasagne standout. Unfortunately, they'd sold the last tiramisu, so we had to stuff some of the cheesecake, which was also luxurious.

I'd only heard good things about this restaurant and wasn't disappointed. Beautifully cooked food, great service and spotless premises. The tables, glasses and cutlery were sparkling. I had the rack of lamb, my husband had hake, both excellent. Will definitely be going back.
