Description

The Poole Arms is the oldest pub on Poole Quay, operating since 1635. The distinctive green tiled facade conceals a cozy interior with wooden panels and historic photographs of Poole on the walls.

The restaurant is known for its delicious menu based exclusively on locally and seasonally sourced fish and seafood. Specialties such as fresh mussels, oysters, crabs and lobsters are prepared without coating or frying.

For the thirsty, there is a selection of four real beers and fine wines. The specials of the day board always reflects the freshest catches, all in a family atmosphere created by the same owners since 2004.

avatarSara B.R.2 months agoAbsolutely fantastic food and great service. I would advise to book in advance though, we went for dinner and was fully booked, so we booked for next day lunch. The fish and seafood casserole was just amazing, I loved it!
avatarPoppy Fahy6 months agoHoly! This place was such a gem to stumble across in Poole. The prices were incredibly reasonable compared to all the other surrounding places AND for fresh seafood. I’m from Australia and I know good seafood and by god THIS is good seafood. We ordered the oysters which were HUGH, the scallops and the sardines for starters which were all fantastic and tasted fresh. Then, we ordered the smoked haddock pot, the skate wing and the sea bass and gosh all were 10/10. I think the skate wing and the smoked haddock pot were the highlights. The chef definitely knows how to cook fish. Also, the servers were amazing - big shout out to Emma and Debbie - they all had great banter and were very professional. If I wasn’t leaving tomorrow, I would be back again and again.
avatarMatthew Ridley3 months agoWe had been wanting to visit Poole Arms for quite some time and, yesterday, we finally made the journey. It was well worth the wait and the travel. The place itself is located on Poole Quay. A charming, and quirky little place and with such a welcoming atmosphere. The seafood was our reason for going and Poole Arms did not disappoint!! It was exquisite!! I had the Gambas Pil Pil to start and the Poole Arms Seafood Casserole for my main. Both were cooked to perfection and were absolutely delicious. The menu offers seafood lovers a great selection of well-cooked, and delicious starters and mains, and there is also a great selection of ploughman's and sandwiches. All in all, I would highly recommend a visit to Poole Arms. Book well in advance as it is a very popular venue, and with good reason!! We went back today for lunch. Delicious food and excellent service. I can't recommend this place highly enough.
