After a few weeks of respite to get over the gastronomic onslaught that is Christmas and New Year, many of us are beginning to feel peckish once more. It’s about this time in January when we start venturing out to prey on substantial food sources once more.

We asked members of Facebook group We Grew Up In Bournemouth and Poole which restaurants they miss the most and these are just a few of the much-loved and sorely-missed eateries they mentioned.

From Coriander through to Ocean Palace – these restaurants may have enjoyed their last supper, but they live on in our memories.
