Restaurant Roots

Inspected by Visit England Logo
Visit England Logo Inspector comments
"Contemporary, elegant space for tasting menus."
Overview
It’s tasting menus only at Roots, with vegetarian, lunch and dinner options available. These change monthly and the food is inventive but uncomplicated, thoughtful and confidently constructed and presented. Service here is great, from a very knowledgeable team, and the elegant, intimate dining room (it’s small, so book early) is a relaxed, comfortable space. New Forest asparagus, lemongrass and caviar could precede trout, buttermilk, lettuce and chives; then venison, raspberry, teriyaki, pistachio, morel and cabbage. Show more

About the area
Dorset is made up of rugged coastlines, high chalk downlands and a chain of picturesque villages and seaside towns that make up Britain’s Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, noted for its layers of shale and numerous fossils embedded in the rock. Hidden gems of Dorset can be found down winding, country lanes that lead to snug villages hidden from view
