Upwey Wishing Well

The food was delicious, the staff were friendly and the gardens are beautiful.

Friendly staff, following covid rules very well. Beautiful place great company 💕

Generally great, good food, which came out quickly. Only one small criticism, although totally understanding how very busy the small team of staff were. Just a quick acknowledgement on arrival, with “someone will be with you shortly” would have made me feeling less awkward waiting at the door, and feeling ignored. No one asked us how our food was or said anything when we left ........

Lovely place booked again, to take family, great atmosphere pleasant service

Visited today for tea and a slice of cake. It was lovely. Great surroundings and very generous slices of cake.

The food came out with stone cold chips the panini wasn’t hot and inside the cheese hadn’t been melted at all. The server forgot to give us cutlery. Then when the scone came out we didn’t have enough cream for one side and yet someone else took scones to people on another table and gave them holders bigger than the scones full of cream. I have been recommending it I no longer will disgraceful. Should be consistent to each guest and food should be cooked at hot. And on top of that it was for a birthday so it upset me that I was treated so bad

Recommended by a friend who visited recently. The food was amazing so much choice on the menu. Staff were friendly and the service was excellent. Great quality food will definitely be visiting again

First visit for me, lunch treat with my daughter. Food was delicious, prompt friendly service. Table by the gorgeous river. Finished with a wander around the beautiful gardens. Amazing place, peaceful and relaxing. Loved it, thank you Will be back soon ! 🥰

Really lovely, we have been many times from Cambridge to Weymouth and always make this a priority visit. If I may just say one thing it would be the cold drinks; the ‘homemade lemonade’ is in fact a can likewise the ginger beer. Sadly not to the standard of everything else. But - still a lovely friendly place in a magical setting which should not be missed.

Very good lunch, service and surroundings. Will go back again soon!

Staff are always friendly and welcoming. The Wishing Well is a lovely place, food is always amazing. The gardens are something else a really lovely experience that I’ll never get tired of.

Always a lovely place to visit, great staff an amazing food😊

Really good, menu was excellent especially as my daughter is vegan and she was well impressed with the choice. Even catered for the dog with doggie ice cream. Will definitely be returning.

Table outside, lovely food, couldn't fault. Excellent company, would recommend.

Food was super tasty but took a long long time to firstly be shown to our table and then for our food to arrive after ordering, we understand they were busy but it was a bit of a wait! Cant fault the food though!!

We only live 5 minutes away, so very handy for us to pop to for lunch or coffee, always a warm,friendly welcome. We booked for Sunday lunch as we had visitors, walked there on a lovely afternoon, were greeted and seated outside under a tree, listening to tricking water, perfect, 3 roast lunches and a Seabass were ordered, my allergy was taken into account, good wine and quick service considering how busy they were! Our guests from Essex were suitably impressed with the country charm....I bought some plants, as usual, then walked back home to debate where to put them in my already full garden...a lovely Sunday lunchtime, will be back for morning coffee soon....

I went with a friend to upwey wishing well cafe it was really lovely food lovely service and definitely be coming back again soon

We had vegetables with our quiche but menu said salad. The whole meal was lukewarm. The quiche pastry was soggy. We ordered chips( again lukewarm) only because menu stated no potatoes.The least the owner should have done is not charged for the chips. We did not complain because this is the first time out and no one wanted to spoil that time. Also I phoned to check we would eat in only to be shown out to the marquee. I complained and we were given a table inside with max time we could stay. All in all very disappointing.

Every thing was good except the choice of music and weather

A lovely setting with a great walk around garden in sunshine. A hidden gem.

Friendly, Good food, lovely and cosy, excellent menu for adults and children and dog friendly. Lovely garden.

Lovely place, nice friendly staff and excellent meal and service.

Lovely place with very nice, home cooked food. Beautiful garden and wishing well.

Really lovely home cooked food, warm and friendly atmosphere on a wet and windy day. Will definitely recommend and visit again

My 91yr old mother loves this place because there are people in there from all generations, the food is reliably excellent and most of all she is given the portion of meal she did not have room for in a carry out box. My husband and I love it too. The staff are lovely and helpful.

Lovely lunch with friends. So nice to be able to walk around the gardens after good food and also have cake to take home for later!

The covid precautions were excellent. The bar code for the AP was on the door and hand gel was provided there. All the staff were masks and the tables were well spaced. This is one of our favourite places for a meal in Weymouth and District and did not disappoint yesterday. We had afternoon tea which was amazing. We were two meat eaters and one vegetarian. The vegetarian option had a good variety. By the time we had eaten the sandwiches and our enormous scones with cream and jam we did not have room for the attractive cakes. The wishing Well cafe dos takeaways so they were able to provide us with boxes to take the cakes home.

Great service good menu in a wonderful setting we shall eat there again

Lovely hot chocolate however the Venue was a bit cold

Food was amazing & very tasty as usual 😋 will be back

We had lovely lunch food really good and beautiful garden

Lovely location & delicious food, the staff couldn't have been more helpful, will definitely go again

Great service Lovely garden outside Super cream tea Good price

Friendly staff! lovely food as always, good social distancing in place. Had a lovely walk round the garden after our meal, could not resist purchasing a plant.

We enjoyed sitting in the beautiful gardens and purchasing plants.

We were disappointed in their COVID 19 cleanliness. ( our table wasn't wiped before we sat down & the toilets weren't sterilised after each person & also they had paper menus rather than laminated ones which could have been wiped down after each customer. ) But they did have good social distancing in place & hand steriliser at the entrance.

Delicious sandwich and Dorset Apple cake dessert. Overall very pleasant experience.

Such a quaint and pretty place, staff were friendly and the food was delicious.

Really nice to get back into eating out after such a long time. Lovely to walk round the beautiful gardens and lots of plants for sale in aid of Samaritans.

A pretty restaurant with excellent service and food situate in a lovely part of Dorset.

lovely location . We had a roast which was very nice. great service too !

We had a lovely lunch at the Wishing Well on Monday 2nd. As my friend is vegan and has trouble finding something to eat this came as a lovely surprise for her. Thank you for the meal that we had.

Delicious piping hot meal in a lovely village restaurant. Service was spot on and always very friendly. Reasonable use priced and the garden just budding up too.

Lovely location with friendly staff. We stopped for a cream tea and a doggie ice cream for Angel. We enjoyed our visit and the walk around the gardens.

Lovely lunch & fab service. Highly recommend - thank you!

Lovely location with friendly staff and food. Nice scenery and atmosphere

First time visit, but won't be the last. Beautiful food and great service..

Took some visiting relations for lunch as they had never been here before. They were very impressed & said they will return when the gardens in full bloom.

Good food but a little pricey. Would like some greens with mains. Place much smarter now and staff were great

Such a lovely tea room all year round. Great food and friendly service. We visit regularly!
