"There's a lot of beautiful restaurants around, but Clockspire might be one of the most strikingly attractive spots you'll find. Housed within a converted 19th-century school, its high ceiling and exposed rafters provide plenty of ecclesiastical 'wow factor', while the lavishness of the refurbishment is mightily impressive. As you may expect, the dishes are impeccably presented and the polished cooking makes good use of its British ingredients. The slick service comes with a personal touch that feels as though the team really care about your experience." - Michelin Inspector

I booked a cocktail masterclass for lunchtime on Saturday. Just wow! We had a great time, mixing, shaking, chatting and learning (plus lots of drinking!) That evening we had fantastic meal for my husband’s birthday. I pre booked a table for a Saturday evening, which I would recommend as they are busy. The service was wonderful, great food, beautifully presented and extremely tasty. Every course was cooked to perfection. They have a great wine list - you can order by the glass or a bottle of your choice. If you are after pre dinner drinks, I would definitely suggest you arrive early and check out the bar upstairs and have one of their wonderful cocktails or a glass of Langham English sparking wine - all served by Matt (a very knowledgeable guy when it comes to cocktails!) Thanks to all the team.

If you are in the area, you absolutely must visit The Clockspire! Staff was great and accommodating about allergies. The food was unique, flavorful, and well presented. We went for the Sunday lunch so the menu was quite limited, but everything we had was delicious. The restaurant's interior is beautiful and perfect for a special occasion or just a nice dinner. I would love to try other menus in the future!

I have been to Clockspire so many times but I must say that the roast sunday lunch on 6.7.25 was the best one I’ve ever had. The best lunch ever. Finished with an amazing dessert. It was our first time to bring our close friends in Milborne Port, Im so glad Clockspire did not disappoint and will go back again.🙌🏼

What an experience. From the moment you walk in and you're taken to the bar for pre meal drinks to the food and the service. Not cheap but worth every penny. We ate as a family of four tonight and every dish was incredible. Top marks to the chefs and the people who served us. 5 stars all the way ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We booked this is as a celebration birthday meal. We booked via the phone, and they informed me that a Jazz band would be playing. On arrival we were shown to the bar which is upstairs. While we were looking at the menu we had a very nice cocktail or two. This place is relaxed and there was no rush for us to go down to our table. I chose the Cured cod, chicken for main and cherry sorbet for dessert. The cocktail and wine list is full of great choices. The Jazz band were excellent. The food was served with decadence and attention to detail. We had such a relaxing time we rung our taxi and asked for a latter pick up. The great food, service, and drink menus are not cheap but not OTT like Lympstone Manor, whos food and wine menus and service are as good as the Clockspire. We would certainly recommend this resterunt and go again.

We've have been meaning to eat at the Clockspire for a while but timings had conspired against us. Whilst staying in Shaftesbury, I had secretly booked us in as a surprise for my husband. We were treated to excellence in food, service and location. On arrival we were taken up to the bar to enjoy drinks and to select our food. Then we went down to our table. We enjoyed every delectable mouthful of each of our three courses. There were layers of tastes to bombard our taste buds! Just superb!

We had a wonderful evening; the service was lovely- the right balance of formal and friendly, the cocktails were delicious and the food delightful-The balance of flavours was perfect on each dish. It’s a beautiful venue and we felt so relaxed and catered for. Definitely will be revisiting. Highly recommend it for a special evening out.
