Nestled in the heart of Dorset’s picturesque countryside, just 9.5 miles from Dorchester, Brace of Pheasants is a cosy, award-winning 16th- century, Grade II listed thatched Inn. "The Brace" as it is affectionately known is the very definition of a traditional rural country Inn. The building is a former Blacksmiths and 2 cottages which were converted into a pub in the 1930s. We have fabulous produce right on our doorstep, allowing us to serve a delectable range of contemporary and traditional cuisine with a real Dorset flare. Our head Chef, Grant Taylor, has a unique grasp of flavours and refreshes our menu frequently so our dishes are seasonal, tasty and creative. Explore the beautiful nearby coast or the rolling hills on our doorstep, then enjoy the sunshine in our beautiful garden or relax next to the fire on a chilly night. Savour fine wines, cask beers and our renowned food and maybe even stay over for the night in one of our 8 4* bed and breakfast rooms so you can really relax & enjoy! No need to leave your furry friend at home, we are dog friendly in the pub, garden & one of our rooms so bring them with you to explore the local countryside or relax in the pub! Please call us on 01300 348357 to book a table or enquire about our accommodation. We look forward to seeing you!
