Super walker's rest with honest home-cooked pasties & great beer. Live music and heaps of unspoilt, smuggler's-inn character. After a blowy dog-walk via Dancing Ledge the Square & Compass is a welcome sight after the stiff pull up Seacombe Bottom (a valley named to keep 12 year old boys giggling all the way up the hill.) If you're looking for a "typical" 21st century gastropub lunch you're in the wrong pub - but then there's a million places you can find that. The tiny low-beamed rooms, stone flags & rough tables are a real step back in time. There's no bar - just two serving hatches into a cellar room where the beers are gravity-poured. We were there on a Sunday afternoon and it was packed inside & out with an eclectic & good-humoured crowd, bolstered by the hipster fans of a very good, young country-ish band playing in the main lounge, live music always a great surprise. The pasties were home-cooked with excellent pastry and served piping hot, really quickly & by friendly staff. Had a couple of pints of excellently kept best bitter & younger children loved the Palmers Ginger Beer. It was a wrench to leave the fireside for a quick turn around the fascinating higgeldy-piggeldy fossil & antiquities museum and then squeeze our way back through the narrow passageways & out to a blusterous return walk. Our hound was amongst many friends - certainly a dog-friendly establishment. Worth bearing in mind the Square & Compass is tiny & very popular, we were lucky to get a table inside but you'd need to go prepared to eat at one of the many outdoor tables, enjoying fabulously airy views across the surrounding countryside & out to sea and of course the weather you'd expect to go with such an impressive situation! Will definitely be back.

We just had a great meal at The Anchor. I’ve been coming to Swanage since I was a child and have never been into The Anchor before as it always looked a bit dingy. It’s been totally renovated and is now bright and inviting. The staff are friendly and helpful and the food is amazing! I had the sea bass, my husband had crab salad and our 17 year old done had a burger. We all loved our food and would definitely come back again.

Popped in with my wife, 2 year old and my mum for dinner. We weren't expecting much but were very surprised with the quality of food and the food options available. Really good, wholesome, heart warming pub food. They were busy but the service was excellent and we were well looked after. They had good, compliant social distancing measures in place too. I would recommend the home-made Pie and mash. The fish and chips was also fantastic.
