First impressions, beautiful pub, beautiful location! The views of corfe castle and surrounding areas are amazing. Unfortunately, it was down hill from there. There was no heating. So had to eat dinner in our coats and were still cold! We asked for the heating on but it never happened. Dinner was of a good size but unfortunately minimal veg, slightly... More

How difficult can it be to staff up for a bank holiday monday lunchtime; man the bar with more than 2 people,, get that kitchen pre-making baguettes and other easy stuff, dont run out of signature jerk chicken etc etc. Inside was empty apart from the snaking, but orderly queue for the bar, why not get the serving staff to...

Haven't been here for many years as have heard mixed reviews but glad we decided to try again. Atmosphere was great and the staff were friendly and attentive. We ordered a sharing platter to start which was a perfect size and very tasty. My classic 'Scott' burger was very tasty and very filling. My wife had the shallot tarte tatin... More

Stayed in both rooms for an overnight stay with friends. Room was good albeit quite expensive for what you are getting. The bar and restaurant were clean and good range of beer and cider. The restaurant is well laid out and staff were not very well trained (seemed very rushed) but attentive. The food was the biggest let down of... More

Typical traditional English pub style but immaculately kept clean and inviting. Good range of bitters and ciders. Amazingly good wholesome food. You must try the Steak with Pepper sauce, we had this twice..... but if... More

We have been to the Scott Arms many times when in the area. The quality of the food is always very good, and the staff are attentive and welcoming! We visited on a sunday (and it was sunny) so it was very very busy. Thankfully we called ahead and were able to get a table reserved. Parking was a bit... More

Prices of food slightly above were average but the quality of the food was above average in presentation and in taste. Only fault was that the dessert served was a bit on the miserly side. Waiting staff were eager to help. Atmosphere in this pub on a cold Winter's evening was predictably lovely sitting next to a fresh bunch of... More

We spent 3 nights at the Scott Arms arriving on Friday 16th November 2012. From the moment we were welcomed & shown to our room the staff could not have been more polite and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Our room was lovely, clean, bright & nicely decorated, in a good state of repair & probably the cleanest room... More
