About
Brassica Restaurant in Beaminster is a family‑run, Mediterranean‑inspired eatery that blends casual dining with a refined menu that changes daily. Nestled in the heart of Dorset just a short walk from the Jurassic Coast, guests can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere, fresh ingredients, and a range of dietary options including vegan and gluten‑free dishes. The restaurant also offers a shop next door where visitors can purchase wine, local produce and kitchenware, making it a convenient one‑stop destination for food lovers. We open from Tuesday to Saturday – breakfast, brunch and elevenses from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., a midday lunch box from 12 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., afternoon tea from 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m., and a festive supper from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday evenings. The intimate setting is split between a fireside seating area and a modern bar/counter, offering both cozy comfort and a lively vibe. This unique concept has earned praise for its friendly service, diverse menu and pristine ambience.
