Day out with family and found this place on a Google search. Excellent food. Good price. Dog friendly. Lovely atmosphere with music playing. Free fast WiFi. We sat outside but inside is also lovely. Would definitely visit again.

We had lunch at this place twice in a row. Both times we enjoyed all our meals including kid’s one. Everything was fresh and tasty. Staff were polite and helpful. My favourite was canjune Chicken

Excellent food & good price. Great atmosphere with music playing. Situated in a convenient and easy to access location by Bournemouth pier and the beach. Well staffed and fast service. Seating inside and out - with views of the beach.

Went here last night and it was excellent, the food was lovely and ar a reasonable price comparison to other restaurants in the area... only one thing is my friend wanted mussels but they were out of stock but next time hopefully they'll have them in. The staff were really friendly and helpful but the best thing was the atmosphere of the place on a nice summers day with lovely music playing was great and will be returning.

What a place! Came into Hot Rocks as there was nothing else open, we didn't have a reservation, we just turned up. From the outside, the place doesn't look too appealing but decided to give it a go anyway & we were SO glad we did. From the minute we walked in, the hospitality was incredible! We were told they were fully booked but to come back and they would seat us. We went back in and asked if we could get a drink whilst we wait and instead we were told there was a seat at the bar if we would like to eat there. We sat down and ordered our drinks and food via the QR code, whilst sat down we have 4 different members of staff who came over and asked if we had ordered, if we'd like to order or if they could help with anything. They were amazing from start to finish! And the food.... absolutely incredible! So fresh, tasy, so much flavour and just an amazing find! Highly recommend!!

Birthday treat we parked up at Boscombe beach, and after two chip shops being shut we found this restaurant, and although they were closing, they very extremely helpful and stayed on to cook 7 pizzas for us all to take away, very tasty they were as well, great service, friendly staff, thanks for helping to make my birthday special.

A friend and i popped in here for some lunch. I had a pizza and my friend had the mussels. Both were delicious. The service was attentive and the setting was lovely. We sat inside due to the weather. Highly recommend.

Went in for lunch today. Seated in 5 minutes the server was friendly and welcoming. Sat down with menus immediately and ordered drinks. These arrived quickly, and we were given time to relax and choose our meals with no pressure. The food was superb! Both meals were presented well and very tasty. A lovely lunch indeed. To top it all, it's great value for money! Brilliant cocktails. I highly recommend Hot Rocks for a relaxed and tasty meal.
