Mere minutes away from the Triangle and town centre, you, your family, and your four-legged friend can enjoy your favourite hearty comfort meals in a cosy, welcoming venue in the heart of Bournemouth.

The White Horse in Buckover

The White Horse pub-restaurant, in the quaint Gloucestershire hamlet of Buckover, serves modern twists on pub classics, prepared with local ingredients, with spectacular sights of the Somerset countryside from its patio area, children’s play area, and a cosy interior to relax in. Close to the Cotswolds AONB, the dog-friendly White Horse boasts incredible views over the Severn Estuary – the perfect place for a hearty meal and a proper pint.

The Badminton in Bristol

For a classic British roast dinner carvery in Bristol, The Badminton Carvery restaurant is the best of the bunch, with a family-friendly and dog-friendly atmosphere and beautiful beer garden for al fresco dining. Perfectly cooked roasts, crispy-yet-fluffy potatoes, velvety and rich gravy, and all the trimmings… perfectly paired with a refreshing pint of award-winning Butcombe beer. It doesn’t get much better than that.
