NINE Restaurant and Bar

Incredible food, couldn't fault it! It was so tasty that I forgot to take any more photos after our starter. They were very accommodating of dietary requirements which was greatly appreciated. The service was great and it's a really lovely atmosphere, we will certainly be coming back!

We just stopped by for a coffee and some cake on a warm Saturday afternoon in May. The Flat White coffee was good and strong. Exactly how we like it. They had plant based milk too for us vegans. We also had a delicious rhubarb cake. Good service, nice atmosphere.

One of the best meals I've had in a very long time. All food was lovely and generous portions, the starters (cheese souffle and salt and pepper squid) were exceptional, and the tiramisu was the best I have ever had!! Friendly, efficient service and lovely relaxed setting with fab decor. Already looking at when we can come again! Thank you so much.

NINE in Wareham came up with the best reviews and we were not disappointed – the cannelloni was incredible – pasta homemade that day and the filling and sauce sublime. My husband had the chicken and leek pie with a tasty twist - Dan ( chef and owner ) smokes his chickens first. Not even a drop of sauce was left on either of our plates. The staff were welcoming and helpful, and the beautiful wood table and comfortable chairs added to the relaxing music and vibe. We will be returning and have already passed on our recommendation to friends and family who love freshly cooked, fantastic food by a great chef.

Had a lovely meal and dessert here. All cooked to perfection.
The veg was all from the owners allotment and was very fresh, cooked perfectly and just very enjoyable.
Crabcakes were well seasoned and had fresh herbs through them. Steak on the special was tender and cooked exactly to my ask and liking.

Although quite full, we enjoyed two desserts which were some of the best we have had.

We had been to the Pig on the Beach in studland a couple of days before and Nine Resturant was actually far better and cheaper.

Will recommend this one to family and will definitely be back

We are Korean and I usually make kimchi for my family. We are surprised about Korean wings and homemade kimchi's taste. My kids said "this is the best chicken ever" so we ordered 3 times same menu.
I appreciate for making delicious and creative foods. It gave us happy moments in summer vacation.

Where to begin !

Nine recently catered and ran the entire hospitality aspect to our wedding. The whole team were incredibly professional, fun and hugely attentive.
We opted for a marquee style wedding. Sharon and Dan were on site with us multiple times over the days leading up to the wedding filling us with reassurance and confidence in the running of the day.
They knocked the whole day out the park, the food was absolutely fantastic, the bar staff were engaged and fun, the leadership and timing from Sharon/Dan was faultless and nothing was ever to much.
We over ran on some parts of the wedding which meant some of the team had to stay on slightly later, Sharon managed this faultlessly in the background keeping the day rolling without a glitch !

Both my wife and I are hugely grateful to each member of the Nine team who worked so hard to deliver the best day of our lives.

Sharon/Dan, thank you for everything.

We came to NINE for dinner on the day we got engaged and they could not have been more lovely! There were confetti hearts on the table when we arrived and the staff were kind and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious. My fiancé had the goats cheese to start and I had some lovely bread and olive oil. He then had the steak pie with truffle mash, which he said the pastry was amazing. I had the vegan cauliflower steak - which in some restaurants is bland - but was so full of flavour and cooked perfectly. It came with really lovely spiced lentils. For dessert we shared a chocolate fondant, which had ‘congratulations’ written on the rim of the dish ☺ We would 100% come back when we are next in Dorset! 10/10 - thank you for making our day so special.

Scores 10 out of 9. We had a dinner that beat expectations and then a fabulous breakfast. Both were characterised by an ambition, fully realised, to deliver proper, high quality, delicious food. All dishes were interesting and beautifully executed with the best ingredients. We wanted to try everything on the menu. Service was friendly and attentive to detail, down to providing homemade sauces and bespoke coffee. Wareham is lucky to have this place

What a gem in the heart of Wareham! They were kind enough to find us a sitting at short notice and from then on the evening and meal were sublime. Service excellent, ambience superb and food beyond delicious. A small, family run restaurant serving such great food so well deserves to be visited. It really is a five star treat - go and find out for yourselves!

Food was so good, seasoned to perfection. Effort put into arrangement. The s'mores desert was laid out like a mini campfire. The place deserves a Michelin star. Oddly quiet on a Saturday night. Hopefully gets more recognition.

A lovely place for well prepared local food, with an ever changing menu. The team at 9 always make us feel welcome and are very happy to walk through the menu to help with my allergies (I carry EpiPens). Whether guiding me to safe dishes or chatting with the kitchen to make changes, I know I'm getting a great meal.

One of the best places around for good local food.

It’s always wonderful to have a menu where you find it difficult to choose what to have as there are so many delicious options! This restaurant in a Dorset gem; delicious food, great service and a lovely atmosphere. We will be back!

First time here (definitely won’t be our last) fantastic food and service! I’ve been a chef for over 30 years, so I appreciate good food when allowed out of the kitchen! Homemade brown sauce is amazing as well so we bought a bottle! If you haven’t tried this place you should!

The best place to eat in the Purbecks. Top family restaurant, beautiful decor, lovely atmosphere and friendly team. I love the chef's Dorset jugger pie - delicious. And I often choose mushrooms on toast for brunch which are equally lush! The cheese soufflé is the best I've ever eaten. Great coffee served too, if you're just looking for somewhere to get a hot drink.

There's a saying which goes: 'You don't remember what the meal cost, only what it tasted like.' Well, I do remember it tasted wonderful, and I also remember it was very reasonably priced. But that's only part of the story. This meal was for sixteen people to celebrate a milestone birthday. And to say that the lovely people at NINE went the extra mile would be an understatement. They could not have done more to ensure that we had a marvellous, faultless evening.
Thank you NINE.

Been for breakfast, lunch and dinner and all been incredibly delicious! Along with awesome coffee... and cocktails. Super cozy and quirky interior and lovely, friendly staff. Would definitely recommend this new to wareham restaurant. Recently tried the take away pies during the second lockdown. It's so nice to have delicious homely food to take away during this time. Oh, if you haven't tried the homemade S'mores you're missing out...

What a little gem. Greeted by a wonderful smile from the owner as we walked in and this set the mood for our whole stay. Food was delicious and the decor on its own was worth a visit! Great price. ❤

Absolutely loved this place, service was amazing, atmosphere is lovely and honestly had the BEST tuna and cheese panini I’ve ever had in my life. Can not wait to return and try out the rest of the menu!

My favourite place for breakfast in Wareham. A lovely little place and great food. The best scrambled eggs.
