Loch & Quay, Christchurch, Dorset
Loch & Quay is a few minutes walk from our Christchurch properties, Quay House and Quay Corner and opposite James and White where we have also negotiated a discount for our guests.
Loch and Quay is the kind of bar/restaurant that you will want to return to again and again. Bring your girl/boyfriend for that special intimate supper, or bring your Granny for a traditional Sunday Roast.
We’re perfect for coffee and cake after shopping, and a fun venue for that punchy cocktail before the cinema. We have fabulous innovative shared platters for a convivial supper with a group of mates.
For Dining In we have some recommendations for you.
South Coast Parties come recommended. When you want a break from self catering but want to eat in, this is a great alternative for that special occasion when you stay in our Dorset or New Forest properties.

The Mandarin – 194-198 Old Christchurch Road,Bournemouth BH1 1PD
Whether you’re ready for a slap-up meal and a real eating occasion or you want a quick bite before or after a show, a Chinese will always deliciously fit the bill. The Mandarin on Old Christchurch Road has been doing this since 1969 and is synonymous with Chinese dining in town. Great for Quay House and Quay Corner guests which is only a 20 minute drive.
The menu reflects the individual aspects of Canton, Peking and Szechuan cooking – the sweet and sour flavours of Peking (Beijing), the hot, piquant flavours from Szechuan and the more mainstream Cantonese cuisine.
Offer is 10% Off Food & Drink Bill on production of a Short Stay Homes leaflet.

Sainsbury’s recommendations when staying at Quay House
We would love your suggestions and recommendations of eateries you have been to on your holidays with us so we can share them with other guests, Sainsbury’s stayed in Quay House and did just that in this recent article in their in-house magazine. Follow in their footsteps and try out some ‘Dorset oysters served with shallot vinaigrette’ or the ‘higly recommended Alex Aitken twice-baked cheese souffle’ all within the vicinity of our Christchurch properties. Sounds too good to miss.
