The Dorset - (Near East Sussex, london)

Dominic Fountaine This is by far the best and most authentic Thai food I have experienced in the UK! My wife is half Thai and has lived there and even she was amazed at some of the dishes available here that we havent found anywhere else except Thailand itself. Its a BYOB, which we didnt mind at all. There is a corkage fee but it wasnt over the top by any means. The staff were lovely and were very quick to accommodate anything we asked for, including things like providing small bowls so we could share a larger soup like a starter and other random requests. If you are a fan of Asian food or especially Thai food and can get over to this restaurant I cannot recommend it enough! The venue is small, however, so its best to book in advance as theres no guarantee you could get a table otherwise.

ST Third time here and just amazing. Simply one of the best meals Ive ever had and great to have somewhere I can really recommend. Staff, ambience, food, drinks and facilities all brilliant. Having seen previous reviews that knocked the fish and chips and the pork belly, we decided to risk it and see for ourselves and we couldnt disagree more. The Pork belly meal was flawless and the fish and chips were lovely. Some of the best chips weve ever had and the fish definitely wasnt all batter. Its debatable over how good the fish is but thats the personal preference, but it was very good. The Chicken Milanese was brilliant and we love the Jolly Ginger mocktails. Dessert wise, again, we thought they were excellent. I must say however the crumble isnt quite to my liking due to the cluster type of crumble, but again this is more personal preference, but definitely had enough filling inside though it is very hot, so I do recommend leaving it to cool down a bit first. We will definitely be back and so far everything has been very consistent and I would definitely recommend going and seeing for yourself.and if things arent to your liking, mention it at the time as I can assure you the food is very good and you may have just got unlucky.

Mark Sutton A fantastic bakery with seating available too. Very friendly staff serving excellent food. I was delighted with my roll, far superior to the well know chain of baskets. Its also so important to support local businesses. I will certainly call again, highly recommend.

Pot of Tea We celebrated our son and future daughter in-laws engagement here. The staff were brilliant and treated them to a glass of bubbles and cute congratulations motif on their desserts. It was great to have an exclusive little room to ourselves and we felt unhurried and relaxed. Thank you

Emmeline Williamson Regularly order here, food is great and has a very small wait time on weekdays. Can sometimes wait longer than told on weekends, but staff are always friendly, will continue to order!

Shane Xinkun Wang Delicious fish and chips, very decent portion and value for money.
