Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Dorset

Quite simply our favorite place not only to dine but to stay at the lovely Grafton Inn

We are always looking for a place for Sunday Brunch. In our area brunch is seasonal and during this visit it was the first Sunday brunch of ski season. We were so pleased they were open! The kitchen gave us an outstanding brunch - perfectly cooked eggs and steak, delicious hollandaise, lux salads and a special chocolate desert for my mom, turning 92. We celebrate her birthdays now with as many adventures and lovely food experiences as we can and Hermitage is first on the list. The staff and the owner of the Hermitage always make their guests feel special. We found the perfect bottle of wine in their extensive cellars and enjoyed our experience immensely. The snowfield view out the windows and the cozy atmosphere of the Tavern room provided us with the perfect place for a good old fashioned family catch up. Our waitress was just delightful and the owner opened our wine for us and chatted a bit. Thank you Hermitage. We will come back for brunch as long as you offer it this season. There is nothing that comes close in the area.

It was an amazing experience for my family and I. The kids were able to meet Santa, brunch was delicious, and the event was well organized. Will definitely be returning.

This was our first experience dining at Morgan & Co., and it did not disappoint. We were warmly greeted and seated next to the fireplace, and it was a cold and rainy evening, so this was much appreciated. The waitress (Fay) was a delight and very accommodating, service was timely, and the meal was absolutely heavenly! We both commented on the way home that this was a place we would be coming to again. Also a big thank you for the champagne toast to commemorate our big night!

Great spot and always delivers. Food, service and atmosphere were top notch.
