Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel - Bournemouth

My son is allergic to milk, eggs and nuts. I could not get through to the hotel on the phone but I emailed them before we arrived to book a table for dinner and let them know about his allergies. When we arrived for dinner at the restaurant they had put together a menu for my son, showing what was safe and what they could amend for him. This was a lovely touch and much appreciated! The first night he had steak and chips. It was a little dry but it was safe for him. The second evening he had the pork, fries and olives and bread. He enjoyed these. Best thing of all - there was sorbet for pudding, three flavours to choose from! Breakfast at the hotel is a buffet. This was disappointing. The staff were helpful but there were very few options for my son: the bread had milk in it (why???) but they did have some special vegan bread available which they did get for him. They could not say whether the sausages contained eggs or milk so he could not have those. He could have the bacon and baked beans, but the spoon to serve the baked beans had scrambled eggs on it. When I asked, the staff brought us a fresh bowl of beans for him. There was fruit. More options and safety from cross contamination would have been appreciated. Menu Top Tips Ask the staff to prepare a special noted menu according to what is safe for your allergies. The changing dinner menu was delicious.
