Tearooms
Nestled within The Blue Pool Nature Reserve and open daily from 10am, our Tearooms invite you in with timeless charm. Dating back to the 1930s, come take a seat in our Art Deco–inspired rooms, or enjoy outdoor dining on the terrace close by.
Our Menu
Afternoon tea is our speciality, served in the relaxed surroundings. We’re also open for breakfast and lunch, with a range of sweet and savoury bites — from croissants and teacakes to pork sausage rolls, Cornish pasties and traditional tearoom sandwiches.
You’ll also find a tempting selection of cakes, alongside our teas, coffees, and a choice of wines, local beers and ciders from the bar.
We cater for all dietary requirements — please feel free to contact us before your visit if you’d like to discuss your needs.
Please note: Booking is only needed for groups of 10 or more (call 01929 558150). Seating in the Tearooms and on the terrace is for those dining with us. Picnics are welcome elsewhere around the site—just kindly take your rubbish home with you.
Ice Cream
Enjoy award-winning Purbeck ice cream, served right here at The Blue Pool and packed with incredible flavour.
Choose from favourites like vanilla bean, honeycomb hash, berries & clotted cream, rich coffee, serious chocolate, and spiced rum & raisin! What’s your favourite?
